Dear Mr. Klein:

Company response to the requests for information embodied in
Paragraphs 6(a) and 6(b) of Attachment A to the February 18,
1969 letter, indicates that some of the companies have con-
· strued these provisions too narrowly. In order that any am-
biguity may be resolved, your company is requested to supply
any additional information that may be called for by the fol-
lowing amendment to Paragraphs 6(a) and 6(b) of Attachment A
to the letter:

"6(a) Correspondence, memoranda, reports or other com-
munications to, from, between, or among the individuals
identified in item 2 above.

"6(b) Correspondence, memoranda, reports or other com-
munications to, from, between, or among persons identi-
fied in item 3 above, and any director, official, rep-
resentative, or employee of National General."

Please confirm to the House Antitrust Subcommittee when National General has complied with this amended request.

Thank you for your courtesy and cooperation with the Subcommittee in its investigation.

Sincerely yours,

Emanuel Celler
