Ir..Hoover advised llr. Quinn to call Ir. Stanleyhill that he is Q Eew Iork Gity at �e Botel �ew I�-DIILQI; that _- _=Hoover will probably be there for several days.

I1�. Hoover advised Ir. Quinn that he had been thinking overthe Detroit case, and instructed Hr. Quinn to see if there is some basisfor us to get in on the case; that if there is some basis, he wanted tobe advised before a wire is sent to the Chief of Detectives in Detroit;that if the crime occurred subsequent to the Fugitive Act, it wouldbe within our jurisdiction. Ir. Qiinn stated that he was not sure about

the date, but that he thought it happened before the Fugitive Act. Hr.Hoover stated that h thought that Ir.QJinn should check up on this caseand see if there was not some basis for the Bureau to get in on it; that

if there were, llr. Qniun should telephone the Chief of Detectives andexplain to sin that there is no National Crimepomnission; that there isan advisory committee to the Attorney General but which deals withpdrely administrative natters; that we are, however, making the subjectin this case a fugitive from justice under the Federal law and that theChief of Detectives could state in his announcement that the man is

being sought by the Detroit authorities and by the Federal Bureau ofInvestigation and any information obtained should be reported directlyto either of these agencies. Ir. Hoover stated that he thought that

pl!

the Bureau should get into the case ii� possible and get an indictmentagainst the subject as a fugitive under the Federal Fugitive act. Mr.Quinn stated that he would look into the matter further before a replywas sent to the telegram from the Chief of Detectives. Ir. Hoover suggestedthat Ir. Quinn inquire of llr. Iamm regarding the Federal Angle of thiscase as it was Ir. Hoover&#39;s recollection that Ir.Tam had looked the

matter up some time ago when the papers were playing the case up andinquiring Ihy the Federal governet had not taken a hand in it. Ir. Quinnstated that if they found out that it did happen before the Fugitive Act,they would prepare a wire along the lines indicated by the Director; andif any further question arose he, Hr. Quinn, would call the Director on it.

Ir. Hoover stated that if Hr. Ieldrop or anyone asked Ihat he wasdoing in New Iork, Ir. Quinn should evade any direct answer and if he wereasked if the Director were up there on the raid matters being staged bythe Treasury Department, Hr. Quinn should reply that he had no comment tomake.

Memorandum of telephone conversationMr Hoover and Hr. Brantley. 3/lo/35.

Hr. Hoover instructed Hr; Brantley that he shouldendeavor to handle the matter very delicately and carefully; particularlywith reference to Hamer, who will probably want to dominate the scene; thatHamer is very suspicious and critical, but thoroughly fearless and honestaccording to Gus Jones�observations. Ir. Hoover stated that after Hamer

learns that Hr. Brantley is on the same job he will undoubtedly seek Mr.Brantley out; that Ir. Brantley�: position should he that we will takeanything Hamer offers to give us, but we will not give him anything; thathe should he handle with diplomacy; that this assignment should be handledin the same manner that the Dillinger and Brener assignments in Chicagoare being handled, as a special assignment out of Waehingto; further thatHr. Hoover desired the job to be done quietly and effectively without regardto local au orities, unless we need their assistance, but that Hr. Hoover

desired to/gs Job Without their aid if possible, due to the _1ea_lousy anddishonesty of the local agencies. Ir. Hoover also stated that he wantedthe job done in a vigorous manner; that he did not want any delayed action;that Mr. Brantley had charge" of the case and was not to take orders fromany of the SACs in whose districts he night work; and that he should call onthem any time for assistance when it was needed; that he should wire or phonein each day any of the developments.

Hr. Brantley stated that he thought they would be stationedat Dallas for the moment; that he would like to have Agent Frank Smith includedin the squad. Fr. Hoover stated that it would be alright to include Agent Sm-th

in the squad, although he believed that Agent Smith was somehhat disposedto be of the typical Southwest type, fearless, honest and with much abilityalong the line of current cases, but someihat slow in runing down cases

needing quick admin.-Lsi-rative action and ability; that llr. Brantley shouldreport to Hashington any observations he made in respect to the men selectedfor the squad. Ir. Hoover further statedof his comments and observations which he

that he did not wish to have any

had spoken, repeated to anysubordinates, as was the tendency on the part of some of the executivestaff, advising him of the situation at Chicago where SAC Ladd had indiscreetlyspoken of his part in the questioning of !Doc" Barker; that Hr. Brantleyshould not advise anyone of the conversations which he had with Washington,and it was not necessary for the agents to know what each other was doingwhen they were working on matters of a confidential character; that Hr. Hooverdesired each agent to keep very close mouthed about the whole assignment andthat they should not be allowed to talk over the case with agents in the

Dallas and San Antonio office; that it was Ir. Brantley&#39;s job to contactthe offices in those districts and advise them of any developments which hesaw proper to advise; that Hamer should be watched very closely a d thatur_ . .

in the case; that however, care should be

n

_ Brantley should see that the Bureau was given fair credit for its part

exercised to prevent any openfeud between Hamer and the Bureau, as he would be inclined to issue a statement

stating that he was unable to secure any cooperation from the FederalGovernment and the Department of Justice.

Ir. Hoover inquired why Mr. Brantley had not kno�iof the formationof the "Flying Squadron". Ir. Brantley advised that he had not deemed itof sufficient importance to advise the Bureau, as in his opinion it was merelyan effort of Stanley Rogers to get his name in the paper; that he only had oneold pline in which he had installed a radio and that the plan, if at all

carried out, was merely in a formulative stage. Mr. Hoover stated that ithad been given considerable publicity andthat the Bureau get in on the formulative

nenspapers had reported that the squadronat Kansas City. I. Brantley stated that

that he considered it importantstages of any such activity; that thehad two planes in Qklehona and one

he had not heard of these latter _planes; that the one owned by Stanley Rogers was the only one he knew about.Hr. Hoover stated that if we did not get in at the start of such things theywould be taking away the credit from our men and focusing public attention uponthemselves; that he, ir. Hoover, believed that we should get all the credit

due us in the public eye and should endeavor to keep ourselves there byactive participation in such projects which are worthy of consideration. Mr.Hoover stated that he thought there might be possibilities in the plan forsuch a squadron in the pursuit of bank robbers, fugitives, etc., and althoughit was uncertain where we would be able to get the planes, nevertheless weshould be in on the plan and he was concerned about the report that we didnot know anything about it; that he understood Rogers was very friendly towardthe Bureau, and he did not understand why he, Rogers, had not consultedHr. Brantley before starting on the plan. hr. Brantley stated that Rogers

�/ he was conemplating a plane service for his office but there ras nothingin the letter about �including four st-atese "re Boos-er instructed 1l_.1&#39;=Brantley that llr.

llr. Quinn advised that he had contacted Colonel Lincoln end_Ir.Baker. He further stated that Fir. -Tohn Keith is out this morning - he hada bad cold - and so he had Agent Hickey in char of, ge the office, go down tosee Garnett, who told Hickey that the Senate Committee had certified to him -5,};a brief containing a possible perjury case; that he wanted a check-up made � /on Mr. L. R.�Ti.lder, Chairman of the Executive Board of thy Gulf lndnstriea,and also llr.- alvin Secretary and C , Treasurer of theflletal Trades De tment,American Fe eration of Labor; also, a sworn statement from ll:-.£

torney-at-law in Washington, and a sworn statement from Ilr.llr. Hoover inquired if our investigation was limited just to

these, an- Hr. Quinn stated �Ies - in other words, it seems as though onAugust 3 1933 in, , response to an invitation to bid, Wilder makes the state-ment that Mr. Raven &#39;2! professed to have a l c ose friend here in izashingtonwho could have th?Naval Ship-building Program extended for a consideration,and have certain hips awarded to the Gulf Industries for constructions. llr.�Hoover stated what he has in mind is, when we investigate, we make an invest-igation, and as he understands this request it is merely desired that we seecertain people, and no other persons. ullr. Quinn stated that we had not ro-ceived the brief from the Committee. llr. Hoover stated what he had in mind

is he does not think that we should be restricted - if we are going to make an-investigation, we shouJ.d go into the matter, and not 111st see certain persons.

five persons, and we find in reading the brief going into the matter that itwill be necessary to interview nine persons to do it thoroughly, and we speakto llr. Garnett, who say; he does not want the other four interviewed, thanwe should decline to make the investigation; that the responsibility will beours to do a thorough job and we are not going to in-hits-wash� it. Ir. �ooverspecifically instructed that this matter be gone into very thoroughly, andif it be found that Garnett&#39;s request is not complete, he should be so ad-vised and find out whether he wants to have a complete investigation made,and if not, we will not conduct the investigation at all. _

Hr. Hoover inquired with regard to the Detroit situation, and Ir-Quinn advised we have been purposely keeping out of that, according to Ir.&#39;1�amm; however, that it did happen after the Federal statute was passed, soheeontacted the Deputy Chief of Detectives out there Saturday afternoon andtold him that we desired not to have that title used but that he could state

that Goodricb&#39;s apprehension I33 desired by the Federal Buresl�-l Of Investiga-tion. Ir. Quinn stated he further told him that llr. Larson, the Agent in Chargeat Detroit, would get in touch with him, and we would go along and do every-thing we possibly could. Hr. Hoover inquired whether we had taken steps tohave the indictment returned on this man, and Hr. Quinn stated that Ilr. Tammtalked to Larson on the subject Saturday afternoon, and arrangements havebeen made, he understands, to get an indictment and we are going to issue anT ft . �ll-9 &#39;IJ&#39;A.-an-n-Q J-..-.4--sq.-4;-l-All 4-I-.n4» -L1.-.8.-.

Subsequent to the conversation with llr. Hoover, llr. Tolson ad-vised llr. Quinn by telephone, also from New York, that, with regard to thecall from Mr. Maragon, it does not matter to us what radio station they use,although Archie llcbonald is a good announcer, and WJSV is probably larger+1-nan 92921lAT._ nu-71:1 &#39;l&#39;.&#39;hn+. ha wn-n��l gnv W.T.Q&#39;92T_ A1 +1-92m1ar&#39;h &#39;l+.

difference. llr. Tolson stated that llr. llaragom may use our name in gettingthe radio stations to cooperate, so he thinks it is entirely up to llr. llara-gen. Hr. Quinn stated he would contact Ir. llaragon and tell him that in sofar as we are concerned, it does not make any difference. llr. Tolson statedthat, of course, Hr. Hoover will not go on the air in this connection, underany circumstances, and Hr. llaragon should make the arrangements, himself.

Mr. Tolson requested llr. Quinn to have Hr. Schilder write a let-ter to hr: 1.v�».!Qtea*T?i1nehell, clealg with the receipt of fingerprints fromMiami and the number identified, and any pertinent information that it isentirely proper to give out. Mr. Tolson stated we have been getting a lot

Schilder prepare a letter to Hr. Walter Winchell just sum-marizing the matter, so that Hr. Hoover can see the letter and sign it upthere.

Hr. Tolson also requested Ir. Quinn to inquire of Ir. Richmond whatsuccess he had on the baseball permit - he was curious to know whether theytold him we would be able to get the South Diamond on the Ellipse for our gamesthis Summer. Hr. Tolson stated he wéuld like to know the next time he talkswith Hr. Quinn. -

his Quinn stated that Mr. Clegg desired to talk with llr. Tolsonabout something, he did-nit say ihat. Ea further stated that iir. Clegg� isnow reviewing Mr. Nathan&#39;s talks, and there Nam only a couple of things whichhe, llr. Quinn, thought should be left out. Ir. Tolson said to tell llr. Gleggwe should be sure these talks are all right, and that he, �r. Clegg, shouldsee them. 1

Mr. Quinn told Hr. Tolson he contacted Colonel Lincoln, llr. Stanleyand Mr. Baker. Hr. Tolson inquired whether Colonel Lincoln wanted to comeover, and Mr. Quinn stated Ho - he would like llr. Tolson to give him a callwhen he arrived bash in the eitqr, and that Hr, Baker said i�r@ reading� thepapers he could understand why Hr. Hoover is out of the city, with all thisgoing on. Mr. Tolson said &#39;this was just as well.

Hr. Quinn stated he had orderedfhvertime in llr. Renneberger&#39;s sec-tion, and inquired whether Mr. Tolson desired them to hold a meeting in nisabsence and consider the North Dakotaqtouth Dakota proposition, and Hr. Tolsonadvised that he did, and desired that they reach a definite recommendation.Mr-. Tolson inquired as to Mr. Renneberger&#39;s situation on the llanusl, and llr.Quinn advised that he sent Mrs. Henley down with lliss Wall this morning tostart proofing it, and the general letter to go out is being typed. llr.Tolson stated this was dictated last Thursday - that llr. Clegg told him be-fore he left town that that letter was dictated - and that surely they are

not still transcribing it. Hr. Quinn stated that it was pretty lengthy, andMr. Tolson said it will be eight our ten pages, but it should not take threeor four days �just to get it typed. llr. Tolson said he would like Hr. Quinnto get this letter typed by five o&#39;clock and go over it with the ExecutiveCommittee and make sure that everything in the letter is all right, because

Hr. Tamm advised Hr.

is quoted all the time when he is not making statements, and the other SAC�:do not have that difficulty, and along this line he talked with llr. Harveyabout the�oase and he is absolutely innocent and has made no statementsto anybody abs-at e.r.ythir.g, and says that the ns=s1:-apa- sen attended the Conl-missioner&#39;s Hearing and that is where they got their information; that thePhiladelphia papers did not quote him, but he pointed out that it is oftens trick of the newspaper men to make a statement about him, and than followit by information obtained from some other source and make it appear as thoughthey were quoting him, and that he, llr. Harvey, had not made any statements.Hr. Hoover remarked that this is possible, but not very probable.

Hr. Tamm advised the Director that, with regard to the Goodrichcase Q .Det_roit, he ta�ed 1&#39;. Luson about the eatter Saturday 21!!ternoon and he said he had wanted to get into the case some time ago �butthat the City authorities - the police -- had seemed somewhat reluctant to

hevigus in the case. Ilr. Larson, according to llr. Tenn, went so fer as togo/ e District Attorney and ask him to see if the prosecuting attorneywould not ask us to come into the case, but that the police seemed rather�reluctant and this is the reason he has never gone ahead with it. Hr. Hooverinquired whether Mr. Larson had ever notified us of this , and llr. Tam stated phe did not; that llr. Larson says he thought it was purely a local offense, {and Mr. Tamm inquired of him why he thought we should go into it, and Er.Larson indicated that he just wanted to get into it and help them if hecould. Ilr. Hoover stated that the whole trouble is we have got to get intoit now, and if we were in&#39;the position of specifically asking some months tago when this occurred whether we could be of assistance, and thq told usno, we could very nicely say, about the Jcriticism we have received fromt.1l_e_ press , that we had offered assistan e but it had been declined, "Eat asit ision, we do not know what Larson hes said, and the matter is very vague _&#39;as we cannot say that they refused to-accept our aid, and it is this sort ofthing which puts us in e. very bad light. Hr. Tamm advised that Hr. Larson

has an appointment with the Chief of Detectives this afternoon, to go overthe whole thing, and will advise Hr. Tam of the results. Ir. Hoover statedthat Mr. Larson should get the indictment in the Federal Court against this

man, and be thoroughly protected. _

Hr. Tamm told Ilr. Hoover that llr. Whitley called this morning aboutstories in the-Row York Mirror to the effect that Federal Agents and policeare investigating in the va.rious�Harlen;_ night clubs, looking for Robinson dis-guised as a woman, which he, Mr. Tmnm, presumes" is predicated upon Winchell&#39;sbroadcast last night, and says they know nothing about it and the police knownothing about it.

comment to the press about the matter; that he, Mr. Hoover, was with Kin»chell at the broadcast and he had this item written up before llr. Hoovergot there, and wanted to know whether it was. alfright, et_ caters, and Ir.Hoover told him that one guess is as good as another. &#39;I&#39;r. Tam statedthat technically we are looking for him in How York. Hr. Hoover said whathe had in mind was Winchell also had in the broadcast about Frankyfwilaonin New Orleans, and it might be well to have ourselves in the picture, eventhough there is nothing to it. Hr... Hoover stated he asked that he, Winchell

put in something about the Ha.milton�Karpisy3-obinson matter, which he did.Hr. Hoover stated he was trying to re-gain some of the publicity whichwe have lost during the past week. Hr. Hoover instructed Hr. Tamm to tellHr. Whitley that, if any newspapers caJ_�l., he should re�zse to make any com-ment, and if any inqairies are made in �Hsshington, %. Tm should tellColonel Gates or Mr. Suydam he does not know anything about that matter asHr. Hoover is handling it, and is in New York, and let it stand at that.Hr. Hoover stated the paper was already printed and on the street with thisstory in it, and Winchell picked it off the second page.

Mr. Tamm advised Hr. Hoover further that I1�. Carusi called him this

morning and referred to Shearer&#39;s statement, and wanted to know whether wehad am] lists of Communists in our files, and was told we did not. llr. �.|:&#39;rI92"lI:&#39;| �ron� in �III Tenn n nnwennnar n1&#39;in1-vine w92&#39;92&#39;|r92&#39;h n11n+.nH Q Hi uh n�F"P�1r92�|n1""1" """��&#39; ""�"�"� ""&#39; -" &#39; ��""""� "" "�"""l""�l."""

of the Department of Justice who is supposed to have said the other daythat we not only had no lists of Gomnnmists in the Department files butthat there were no Federal Statutes penalizing such activities. llr. Tamtold Hr. Oarusi he did not know who the high Department oi� Justice of-ficial was, but it was very accurate, so far as he, llr. Tsmm, knew. llr.Carusi announced he was the high Department of Justice official who madethe statement. Hr. Tamm advised the Director we have a plant in New York

City, usi� 12 men, 6 at a time, coverin,-;__the1{Qpnrad,]romen, who is a friendof Gladys mayor;-&#39;--that she went to Hes Iorl; t-.e _ot-herLd_a_v5 that GladysSawyer - Rho wife of Harry Sawyer; �that Ha.rr_iS§* Iyer is s frie,§;1- of ?IilJ.is.nFfeiss oi.-i�eissman over around Newark, and we mught we might get a lead�on Harry Sawyer, but it has not developed anything as yet. Mr. Hooverinstructed that word be given to Whitley, if anything breaks on this, toadvise Hr. Hoover at the Hotel Ref Yorker. llr. Hoover stated he had not

gone to the New York Office, but had been in touch, now and then, with it.He stated he did not desire to go to the office unless it was somethingabsolutely necessary. �

llr. Tamm stated that instructions have been issued to the Her Iork

Office that ii� they get em Lead on Sawyer, not to go off prematurely andtry to pick him up on the street, but to try to trail him back where he isbecause that may lead to the capture of other members of the mob. Ir.Hoover said this is what he had in mind, because if we follow him, he maylead us to Karpis and the other crowd, because they may be hanging aroundNew York. a » .

hr. �Iamm advised Hr. Hoover that we have this morning e requestfrom Bruce Ne-than to be informed whether he should &#39;go along and conductsome additional minor investigations in connection with the State in-dictment of idem ichetti for murder - the County Attorney has asked thmfor one or two irons which are probably not in our �les; namely, as towhether certain witnesses can testify as to the price of clothes thatFloyd and Bichetti had on a particular day. Ilr. Hoover said he thoughtwe should help on this, and Hr. Tamm said he did not see how we can avoid

it because the police will not give them any help, and after all, we havea personal interest in the murder. Ir. Hoover stated it would react bad-

ly against us if they lose that case. llr. Tam stated he would instructNathan to go along with it.

llr. Tamm stated to the Director that he talked with Ir. Ladd last

night and told him to have llr. Nathan call the Director as soon as he

completes his inquiries there today.

Memorandum -2- 2/l7/36

<~|

Hoover:

Tamm:

Hoover:

Tamm:

Monday, came back and asked them not to reportthis matter o the Chie Justice. Of course, it was reported to theChief Justice on last Monhy, which was the 10th, but Justice �ughessaid in view of the fact that the case was pending, the only personto whom he could refer the matter for pro er investigation was the

Department of Justice; in view ii the relationship of the AttorneyGeneral as opposing counsel to he didn&#39;t want to do anythingon it until the decision was ham. The decision was handed downtoday, and he called the General this afternoon. He says that�is supposed to be a very high-class reputable attorney, and the -tainly if he were honest and sincere in this matter, the first�thinghe would have done when this was brought to his attention was to someto the Chief Justice, and explain that he had nothing to do with it.

P was occupying an office in the Supreme Court Building which hadeen supplied for him to do his work in the library, etc., but he never

came near the Court about it. The officials at the Capitol haven�tdone much, but the Captain of the Guard up there has had a little dis-

creet check made to see who this. woman is. She is a divorcedwoman from Birmingham * * *.

Ehat does the Chief Justice want? r

He wanted a complete investigation to see who wrote the letters, whodictated them and why, and a complete investigation into all the factswith crininal prosecution or disbarment proceedings if any attorneyis involved. He says that * * *.

The way it looks to me is that here is some individual who wanted to

appear as a "big shot", and wanted to impress the other members of thecompany or the association as a "big shot", and he had this letter

written using these familiarities, calling the Justices by their firstnames, and indicating that the decision was going to be against the

Government, which everybody assumed that it was going to be. If ithad come out that way, and the decision had been against the Govern-

ment, and the letter hadn!t been found, this fellow probably wouldhave been in the position to get a nice slice of money out of these &#39;

utility companies. It strikes me that what you ought to do is to

get hold of this woman and get a sworn statement from her, advising herof her legal rights, of course. I would ask her what she wrote it onand where it was written, so that you can get the machine. What Iwould do is to get hold of her right stay * * *

Here is what I have done - I have taken the letters up to the Laboratory.YQQ �l&#39;.?*.n�r-Q are �f;*._-gg n1"-&#39;i"i&#39;n*&#39;|5 n&#39;F� Hm: lo+.&#39;1-.c»v~ .<:&#39;i ;r&#39;n|:.r-I "f�.-::"- -1� ,�l1_ �ne nf&#39;u -92 �I TD -- ------. 92.-.-v w-- .-.¢A.-4.�. -I� up�:-r .-vvvuq. -.._-.;-J�-u-.1 92_/nu.-1. -my was-1 --I ID .

But the point that strikes me is there is not mch use of wasting withLaboratory if we can get the woman to make the statemet and if shewill produce the typewriter. Of coarse, if she lies, oer Leberatorv canprove it, but my idea would}: to get her and a sworn statement fromher, and then I would get hold of this fellow�Well,� is in Birmingham now. He was up here as a spectator inthe Court on December 19, 1935, and from the information availablenow, he wasn&#39;t up here at any other time.

92

Now my feeling about it is this: I think that we ought to send somedamn good men down to Birmighan. e - -

Here is what I have done so fer. We didn&#39;t get this until after five0&#39; clock. I have sent Louis Loehl up to see Captain92Crooks of the Guardat the Capitol, and to see United States tEarshal92Green of the S�xpremeCourt, who has had his thumbs in it e couple of times, to get all thefacts so that we can confront this woman with something tangible, andthen get a sworn affidavit * * *

Don&#39;t let that woman get out of Eashington. -92

You see, this happened last Saturday, and we don&#39;t know where this womanis at this time. They have had over a week since the matter was broughtto the attention of the Chief �Justice. She was working for the Resettle-ment Agency here a week ago, and there has been no indication that shehas mved cuts &#39;

I would locate her and keep her under surveillance so� that we won&#39;t losetrack of her, until we get the facts to serve as a basis to question her.

Row, when is Nathan going to be done at Buffalo.

Nathan is leaving at eight 0&#39; clock, and will be there tomorrow, and hewants to come by New York on the way back -I -1- -1- record I-an out!,
