Remarks (By SAC): t Tt is recommended that this surveillance be maintained for an additional period of 90 days and such will be done UACB. Attention is drawn to the fact that although the general quality and quantity of information received from this source has greatly decreased, the source continues to be active to some extent due to infrequent visits by Chicago top hoodlums to Celano's and due to conversations held by Celano with others concerning Chicago top hoodlums and their associates and activities. In addition, there is | no expense involved in monitoring this source in that the same employees who monitor the other surveillances on the same subject easily monitor this source. Further, it does not appear that there is_ any particular risk involving the security of this source at Celano's, ' except that risk which would be inherent in making an entry to i retrieve the source. t] -3- | Copp pe  CONFISENTIAN | VEUNP Na Se ——— ~~~ —_— - —— —. | Docra: 32292747 Page 4
