                     "FROM:
                    DIRECTOR, CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY" 
                    CIA Director Richard Helms sent this coded
                    teletype to Hoover on February 10, 1972 (CIA-4 page 1). The
                    subject is "JohnLennon and Project 'Yes'." Here,
                    the CIA reports that Lennon is involved in a project
                    "which will include the use of video tapes, films, and
                    special articles" - not exactly a crime in America -
                    and participation by "a caravan of entertainers."
                    It's hard to see why any law enforcement agency, much less
                    the CIA hada legitimate reason for monitoring "a
                    caravan of entertainers."
