FBI FOIPA Addendum

As referenced in our letter responding to your Freedom of Information/Privacy Acts (FOIPA) request, the FBI FOIPA Addendum provides information applicable to your request. Part 1 of the Addendum includes standard responses that apply to all requests. Part 2 includes standard responses that apply to requests for records about individuals to the extent your request seeks the listed information. Part 3 includes general information about FBI records, searches, and programs.

Part 1: The standard responses below apply to all requests:

(i) 5 U.S.C. § 552(c). Congress excluded three categories of law enforcement and national security records from the

requirements of the FOIPA [5 U.S.C. § 552(c)]. FBI responses are limited to those records subject to the requirements of the FOIPA. Additional information about the FBI and the FOIPA can be found on the www.fbi.gov/foia website.

(ii) Intelligence Records. To the extent your request seeks records of intelligence sources, methods, or activities, the FBI

can neither confirm nor deny the existence of records pursuant to FOIA exemptions (b)(1), (b)(3), and as applicable to requests for records about individuals, PA exemption (j)(2) [5 U.S.C. §§ 552/552a (b)(1), (b)(3), and (j)(2)]. The mere acknowledgment of the existence or nonexistence of such records is itself a classified fact protected by FOIA exemption (b)(1) and/or would reveal intelligence sources, methods, or activities protected by exemption (b)(3) [50 USC § 3024(i)(1)]. This is a standard response and should not be read to indicate that any such records do or do not exist.

Part 2: The standard responses below apply to all requests for records on individuals:

(i) Requests for Records about any Individual—Watch Lists. The FBI can neither confirm nor deny the existence of

any individual’s name on a watch list pursuant to FOIA exemption (b)(7)(E) and PA exemption (j)(2) [5 U.S.C. §§ 552/552a (b)(7)(E), (j)(2)]. This is a standard response and should not be read to indicate that watch list records do or do not exist.

(ii) Requests for Records about any Individual—Witness Security Program Records. The FBI can neither confirm

nor deny the existence of records which could identify any participant in the Witness Security Program pursuant to FOIA exemption (b)(3) and PA exemption (j)(2) [5 U.S.C. §§ 552/552a (b)(3), 18 U.S.C. 3521, and (j)(2)]. This is a standard response and should not be read to indicate that such records do or do not exist.

(iii) Requests for Records for Incarcerated Individuals. The FBI can neither confirm nor deny the existence of records

which could reasonably be expected to endanger the life or physical safety of any incarcerated individual pursuant to FOIA exemptions (b)(7)(E), (b)(7)(F), and PA exemption (j)(2) [5 U.S.C. §§ 552/552a (b)(7)(E), (b)(7)(F), and (j)(2)]. This is a standard response and should not be read to indicate that such records do or do not exist.

Part 3: General Information:

(i) Record Searches. The Record/Information Dissemination Section (RIDS) searches for reasonably described records by

searching systems or locations where responsive records would reasonably be found. A standard search normally consists of a search for main files in the Central Records System (CRS), an extensive system of records consisting of applicant, investigative, intelligence, personnel, administrative, and general files compiled by the FBI per its law enforcement, intelligence, and administrative functions. The CRS spans the entire FBI organization, comprising records of FBI Headquarters, FBI Field Offices, and FBI Legal Attaché Offices (Legats) worldwide; Electronic Surveillance (ELSUR) records are included in the CRS. Unless specifically requested, a standard search does not include references, administrative records of previous FOIPA requests, or civil litigation files. For additional information about our record searches, visit www.fbi.gov/services/information-management/foipa/requesting-fbi-records.

(ii) FBI Records. Founded in 1908, the FBI carries out a dual law enforcement and national security mission. As part of this

dual mission, the FBI creates and maintains records on various subjects; however, the FBI does not maintain records on every person, subject, or entity.

(iii) Requests for Criminal History Records or Rap Sheets. The Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division

provides Identity History Summary Checks – often referred to as a criminal history record or rap sheet. These criminal history records are not the same as material in an investigative “FBI file.” An Identity History Summary Check is a listing of information taken from fingerprint cards and documents submitted to the FBI in connection with arrests, federal employment, naturalization, or military service. For a fee, individuals can request a copy of their Identity History Summary Check. Forms and directions can be accessed at www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/identity-history-summary-checks. Additionally, requests can be submitted electronically at www.edo.cjis.gov. For additional information, please contact CJIS directly at (304) 625-5590.

(iv) National Name Check Program (NNCP). The mission of NNCP is to analyze and report information in response to name

check requests received from federal agencies, for the purpose of protecting the United States from foreign and domestic threats to national security. Please be advised that this is a service provided to other federal agencies. Private Citizens cannot request a name check.

~nd yet lived the emptiest and most barren kind of lite, im­mured in a hotel suite, touched with the world only thrQUgh a pa~ce guard of male secret­aries.

What a contrast to someone like Gulbenkian, who also in­vented a personality but who e n joyed every pound and penny of his fo.rtune, and em· braced life in a (ull-bodied way. I like every individual or­chestration of lite that makes something unique out of the raw material given to us all. In that sense I value the bi· zarre imPrint that lIughcs has given to his liCe.

But It isn't enough to have shown the knack for making money, or to be obsessed with secretiveness and withdrawal. Som~one like Ezra Pound has also withdrawn from life, al­most totally. Yet in Pound's earlier life, there was the gift of cr~tiveness, with poems to leave ~hind, which show that S<lmwne caught glimpses of beauty and complexity that can be handed on. What has Hughes cr_eatcd, other than a plane that was a flop and some movie_s that stank?

NEW YORK (UPI) - -Mc­Graw-lull Boo k _s and Life magaiiM will delay publication of billionaire recluse Howard Hughes' purported autobiog­raphy until they have obtained "information that is complete~ ly satisfactory" as to who actu­any received the money they JXiid for publkation rights, it was announC('(! Thursday,

In a sur[Jri~ joint stat('nll'nt, McGraw-Hill '~ilId LiCe said they had 1l1fOfmed the State Supreme Court, 'in which pub· .llcation CJ! the autobiography is in litigation, of "the questions that have arisen" about a Swiss bank ac('ount 1n which two payment chC'Cks to Hughes were deposited. (Related story, Page 5.)

Hughes' attorneys and a dis. embodied voice identified as Hughes' in a tcle~hone inter­vie w have demed Hughes wrote the autobiography or re­ceived the checks. Further­more, veteran Hughes aides said he always signed his namc Howard Hughes or How­ard R. Hughes, and never n.R.

1st Inf Div Soldier Crushed to .Death

'NEU ULM. Germany (S&S) -- A 1st In! Div soldier sta­tioned h~re was killed Wednes­day when he was crushed bet­ween two self.propelled how­itzers, lhe division disclosed .Thursday.

The soldier • .:\ssigned to the 2nd Bn. 3Srd Arty, at WHey Barrae-ks, was guiding one howitzel' to ~ fueling point in the unit'.s motor pool .,.,l1en the tracked vehicle went out of control, crushing him against another self.propelle~ howitzer already at the Juel point.

The victim's name was with­held. pending notiric.:\tion of next 'of kin.

Hughes as th<: c~cks were en­dorsed.

"McGraw-lIill and Life bave been conducting a thorough nnd continuing investigation 9C an nspccts . 01 the Howard Hughes manuscript," the state­ment said. "This inv~tigation has just developed questions conc.erning too identity of the" holder of the banle ~~otmt at ' the .Swiss credit bank in ZlII"ich in v.hich ch<'cks n'ladc out to Hughes were endorsed and deposite.d..

"We have therefore filed :i.n action with the appropriate, Swiss regulatory authorities in an cICort to obtain lull details. Until we have obtained in­formation that 1s completely sat i s { a c , 0 r y to us both McGraw-Hill and Life are hoI· ding in abeyance action on the public-atioll of the Uownrd Hughes manuscript."

It has been reported , nu~hes, U. received about $600.000 for the pubIi~tion rights, $250,OO() 01. it {rom Time Inc. (or a three-p::u-t ~rializ.1HOIl which wa:: to h.:i\'e bc-~un in l,iCe magazine Feb. 11. McGraw­lIill had :scheduled publi~tioll of the book in hardcover March 10.

Publication has bem opposed by Chester Davis, chief counsel for the Hughes Tool Co., the umbrella for Hughes' industrial holdings, and by Rosemont en­terprises, a Nevada corpora· t ion allegedly formed by Hughes in 19~ as a repository for all material concerning his life story. State Supreme Court Justice Gel"::lld P. Culkin has taken under advisement their application for a temporary in­junction ~gaiJlst publication.

A spokesman for the Hughes Tool Co. in Los Angeles said, "We'd like to point out that within 24 hours aftet Chester Davis was given 3CC'CSS to cop~ of the checkS deposited in a Swiss bank, Hughes reo

presentatives were able to establish th.:tl the 'n. R. Hughes' im'olved i~ not the Howard Hughes who is owner o ( the Hughes Tool Co., Houston, Tex."

The 'Spok('sman said Davis had sought a~'S to the checks for the pa!:.t six weeks, It added poIl1tcdly that it was "worth nOticing that the pub­Ushers' h~.md\\ riling expert is on I\.'eol'd \\ Jtb Ill' opinion Ihal the Slgn"IUIC"l> anti the letters to the .p.ul)lhhers .(authl)l"izing _vtJ.£Ucatti:>rt). supposedly from Howard llughes. were written by the same ~rson," "-

The autobIOgraphy is pur­ported to hav<: Its origin in taped interviews with Hughes by novelist Clifford Irving, Ac­cording to affidavits submitted to CuUd.o. Irving interviewed Hughes 0\'(,1' ..a. nine-month bearing in Beverly Hills and Palm Springs, Calif., Pompano Beach, Fla., San Juan, P.R.. Oaxaca.

NEW YORK (UPI)-R~dusc bHlionaire .!Ioward .1Iugh~,s • .in purported memoirs published Wednesday, claims it is l>QS­sible to keep a man's death hid den for sever~l years through usc of computel;ize.d voice tapes which can continue to communiC:lte and even an· swer questions "completely in character" by means of tele· phone.

The book, "My Ure and Opi. nions," ,cditedby Robert .P. Eaton, was publishe~ by Bcst Books Press Jess than, two weeks ,after a voice allege.d to be Hughes was heard in a tele~ phone interview by seven reo porters who had known him before he disappeared from sight in 1956. The reporters and eXI;><;xts reading voice ta~ saId the voice was that of Hughes.

The· interview was ('allOO so 'Hughes could rock up his at· torneys' denials that another book about his HIe was authen' tic.

That book, allegedly ros~d on interviews with Hughcs taped by novelist Clifford Ir·, ving, is scheduled for publica· tion in March by McGraw7lIill Books. Another In a series of coUrt hearings on an appli~­tion by Hughes' attorneys and a Hughcs-dominated corpora­tion to quash the Irving "auto·

. biography" was held in State

Supreme Court Wednesday :;1(­ternoon but no action was taken.

"This is the m6$t :-.bsurd dream to date in the current rash of fantasic$ from phony 'biographers,''' 3 spokesman for the lIughes Tool Co. said in L6$ Angeles. "It b:elongs in a comic book or science fiction movie for children under 12:

·~It certainly does not belong on the wires of a major news service or in the news section of a responsible daily paPer. The perpetrators of this newest .lloax- .can ~pe~ to ~wer .for the 'bad trip' they are trying to seU as a book."

Eaton, a novelist and former h usb and of actress Lana Turner, claims bis book is based on two m:muscripts given him by Hughes in 1970 after a 13·year. almost clan· destine friendship. In it, he dis· clos('s Hughes' deep interest in having his body deep-frozen immediately ~fter death .so that he can be revived some­time in the future when medi~ cal .science bas develo~ tho proper techniques.

"1 do not think that it will come as a $urprise to the r~­der that 1 have taken and will continue too take such st~ps," the book quotes Hughes in re­gard to his having a freezing capsule and trusted technicians always at band. .

"It 1s possible even now to select. by usc of 3 ~mputer. words, phrases, even inflec-, tions out of a mass of taped .$ounds in tho subject's own, voi~e, so that one would be­lievo' that he was actuallr. speaking to the person biinscl , Questions can be asked, and the re$pollses ar~ almost im· mediate and completely in ¢ha· racter. It is not outside the realm of pos$ibility that ~ man's death could actually be hidden for a numbe: of years to all but a ~rusted and loyal few." -

In another "disclosure" in the book; Hughes is quoted as saying he had been sexually in­volved with a number of women in his life. but his in­terest in young, talented ac. tresses during his' days as a Hollywood producer "never went beyond their potential in my moti.on picture ventures." ·lIe said his associations were "always those of friendsh1p."

"Yes:-As v;lth her husband, the

From the Federal Coufthouse the -Irvlngs were escorted two blocks to plead to the' county Indi~ment.

The Irvlngs and Susklnd pleaded guilty to t'l\'O counts each in the :New York CoI,lnty indIctment. They pleaded guU­ty to grand 1ar~y in the $eo­

;- 'Falsclle Behauplungen geg~n {~aS, Ehcpaar Irving

Kein unkornktes Vel'halten ,seitens del" Schwei7kr Banken

vp. Am Dienstag mittag hat Bezirksanwalt Dr .... Peter Y~lefl. det die Untersuchun8 im Betrugsfall ,Hug~es/Irving fiihrt, in einem schriftlichen Com. munique verschiedene BehauptUJ1$en aus der ametikanischen Allktageschrift gegen Cliffon\ und Edith Irving als tatsch bezeichnet: diese Behaup. tungen seieo geeignet, dell Verdacht, daB sich der Schweiurische Bankwr(I'n, in def ganzen Affare unkorrekt verhalten habe, zu erwecken.

Nach den Ausftihrungen der Anklageschrift ,soU Edith Irving am odet um den 20. Dezembef 1971 beim ,Bankverein 22 SOO Franken abgehoben und damit einen Bankcheck NT. 064.503 im glei. chen Wert, zahlbar an Dieter Rosenkranz, gekauft haben; zuglekh sc:i ihr von der Bank mitgeteilt worden. daB man ilber ihre Falschungen unter dem Namen Hanne Rosenkranz inlormiect sei; da es sich aber bei ihr um dne gute l<undin handle, werde die Bank die Falschungen da.hingebend kot. rigieren, daB das inlcriminierte Konto auf eine andere Filiale des Bankvereins ilbertragen werdy.

Wie Dr. Ve1.eft daw mitteilte, hat Edith Irving alias Hanne. Rosenkranz zur angegebeneo Zeit kein Geld von dem beim Bankverein unter dem Namen Hanne Rosenkranz eroffneten Konto ab­gehoben, sondern den erwahnten Check an dec Bankkasse gekauft und mit dem mitgebrachten Geld in bar bezahlt. Die handelnden Banlcbeam. ten des l3ankvereins haben ;ttl keinero Zeitpunk\ gewuBt odet erkennen konnen, daB es sich bei Edith Irving, die hier ats Hanne Rosenkranz auf· trat, nicht urn die echte'Traserin dieses Namens handle. Bin anderes Bankkonto auf den Namen Rosenkranz bestebt nicht; aUerdinss hat die echte Hanne Rosenkranz beim BankVerein siinetzeit rio ganz anderes Bankgeschaft getatigt, das mit del' Strafuntersuchung in keinem Zusammenhang stand. Edith ,Irving wuBte durch eine rasche und geschickte Reaktion jeden Verdacht w verroeiden, daB es sich dabei urn -zwei verschiedene Personen handeln konnte.

Somit'ist der aus dem Text def amerikanischen Anklageschrift entstehende Verdacht liber das un· korrekte Yerhalten dieser Bank lalsch und un.­b~grumlet. Die bereits frtiher abgegebene Erkla. rung, daB siclt alle an dieser Untersuchung be­teiligten Bankinstitute gegenliber den Beborden absolut korrekt und im Rahmen des legaten MOs0 lichen hllf$bereit verhalten haben, wird von dec Btiirksanwaltschaft Zilric!z emeut bekralt;gt. Ins. besondere bedauert Dr. Veldt den Urostand, daB durch eine den Tatsachen ni~ht dtsprechende ~uIietun.g In det ametikani$cllen Anklage-
