[12]Status of Document: Postponed in Part
[14]Number of releases of previously postponed information: 7
[15]Reason for Board Action: The Review Board's decision was premised on several factors
[17]including: (a) the significant historical interest in the document in question; (b) the
[19]absence of evidence that the release of the information would cause harm to the United
[20]States or to any individual.
[22]Number of Postponements: 4
[24]Postponements: All the postponements in this document represent Social Security numbers.
[26]Reason for Board Action: The text is redacted because the public disclosure of the redaction could
[27]reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, and that invasion of
[28]privacy would be so substantial that it outweighs the public interest.

[98]Memofandum
[100]To: G. Robert Blakey, Chief Counsel and Staff Director
[101]From: Robin Lindley
[103]Date: November 24, 1978
[105]Re: Request for Salary Increase
[107]I would greatly appreciate a wage increase. As you are aware, my
[108]responsibilities with the Committee have changed dramatically in the past
[109]few months. Not only have I assisted with ad hoc writing projects such
[110]as narrations and staff reports that have been used in public session
[111]hearings, but I am also responsible for writing and editing ‘a substan-
[112]tial part of the final report of the King Task Force.
[114]My background uniquely complements my present duties with the editori-
[115]al staff. In support of this salary request, it may be useful to reac-
[116]quaint you with my experience. Following my graduation From the Univer-
[117]sity of Washington School of Law in 1974, I worked for two years as a |
[118]full-time Instructor of Law. In that capacity, I taught a legal research,
[119]writing, and analysis course, and had the opportunity. to critically examine
[120]hundreds of pieces of student work. I also developed a seminar in writing
[121]about law. for persons without a legal background, an effort to encourage
[122]students to humanize and demystify their own legal writing, as well as
[124]. review possible examples of this sort of writing, such as legal journalism.
[126]In addition, I am familiar with historical research and writing. I received
[127]my Bachelor of Arts degree in history (with distinction), with an em-
[129]phasis in United States and modern European history, and while attending
[131]law school, I organized and taught a course concerning the role of vio-
[132]lence in American history that was presented in the Department of General
[133]and Interdisciplinary Studies at the University of Washington.
[135]I have: worked diligently for this Committee since October 1977. As a
[136]research attorney, I did my best to research issues thoroughly and accurate-
[137]ly, to analyze and cogently synthesize relevant material, and to present
[138]the fruits of my efforts in a clear and concise manner. I also endeavored
[139]to see that this. information was..used:effectively.in connection with the
[140]King investigation, despite some obstacles posed by staff regimentation.
[141]Furthermore, I have acted as a de facto staff counsel, notably with the
[142]King investigation in England, as well as in the day- ‘to-day dealings with
[143]agencies and witnesses.
[145]Consequently, based upon my work with the Committee and my unique
[146]experience, I submit this request for a salary increase. Specifically,
[147]I ask that my wages be raised from-the present.level of $18,000 per
[148]year td. $24,000: ‘per: year.
[150]I look forward to my continued work with Dick and the other members
[151]of the editorial staff. — I: find‘my’ “duties gratifying, at times exhilarating,
[152]and always challenging, and I’ do-béliéve that I am uniquely qualified to
[153]make a significant contribution to our final report.
[155]Thank you for your kind consideration. I would greatly appreciate a
[156]reply to this request.
