To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
Copies of the following material pertaining to the general subject of communism:
- "3-1-60 LEB Introduction & 17th National Convention Communist Party"
- "Communist Illusion and Democratic Reality"
- "One Nation's Response to Communism"
- "Community Target--Youth"
- "Expose of Soviet Espionage"
These materials are mentioned in documents released to me through FOIPA Request No. 1233588-0. For your convenience I have uploaded the specific page here: http://i.imgur.com/jZBJ0d5.jpg.
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.
In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Conor Skelding

I apologize for my mistake: the fourth item on the list should have been typed, "Communist Target--Youth."
