Supervi-c; ia who approved this 82 report, advised that he through an oversight ailed to detect the omission. In this connection, SA is Supervisor of the Number Four Squad in the Atlanta vision. His mail is extremely heavy and I do not consider it necessary for him to minutely examine every piece of outgoing mail to insure that omissions of this nature are included.
