Senate Probers Shun File Of Dr, M, King BY AUBREY ZEPHYR National Black News Service WASHINGTON — Investigators of the Senate committee looking into the misdeeds of the CiA and FBi have reportedly turned down a Justice Department offer to let them see the entire FBI file on the late Dr. Martin Luthei King, Jr. The file, v/hich is estimated to measure some 24 feet high, includes all the material the FBI gathered on the assassinated civil rights leader and the records of the covert FBI campaign to discredit and destroy him. A spokesman for the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, headed by Sen. Frank Church (D-ldaho), said the committee had been "selective" in its examination of Dr. King’s file. He said, however, that the committee is now considering a full review of the file. Another official of the committee said the failure to review the whole file was the result of an appeal from Dr. King’s family to restrain from looking into FBI activity which would Involve disclosure of Dr. King’s personal life. However, Harry Wachtel, a Manhattan lawyer representing the King family, said there had been no such request. He had indicated, he said, only a concern that the committee not reveal, after reviewing the file, any comments which Dr. King might have made about other public figures. The FBI reportedly began tapping Dr. King’s telephone in October 1963 and placedlistening devices in his hotel room and offices in January 1964. The FBI’s surveillance of him began at least four years earlier by means not yet disclosed. FBI activity against Dr. King included, according to released information, the mailing of tape recordings to his wife, charging infidelity, and a letter suggesting that he commit suicide.
