Identity of SANICOLA, in accord with paragraph 2 page ll, may be disseminated with the additional comment that verification has not been attempted; =

Information in paragraph 3 page ll relating to a real estate purchase, if disseminated, should include an observation that the source cannot be disclosed and verification has not been attempted. .
