INFILTRATION OF THE.

INTERNAL SECURITY - 

The Bureau is in receipt of a UPI release
dated 5- 8-61 at ?hicago indicating that actor
Ronald Reagan made statements on that date to the
effect that communists are "crawling out of the
rocks" in Hollywood. Reagan, who is President .
of the Screen Actors Guild, said the Communist
Part ''has ordered once again? a massive
infi tration of the motion picture and television 
industries. Reagan said communists are attempting
to consolidate motion picture industry trade unions

"under the umbrella of Harry Bridges' Maritime Union."

Bufiles contain numerous references to
Ronald Rem gun, chiefly in with his
anticommunist activities in different Hollywood
organizations. He has been contacted on several
occasions by Agents of the Los Angeles Office and

?in every instance has been cooperative and he] ful.

Rebuiet dated 5/16/b 1 in regard to the newspaper
reports of statements attributed to actor RONALD

recently. 1

MRIWRONA AGAN has interviewed at his home, 1669

San 'fre,_Pa01fic Pallisades, California, on May 27, 1961
by SAs JOHN M. CASHEL and MARCU M. BRIGHT. Both he and his
wife, the former actress NANC VIS, .ere completely friendly

and cooperative. I

REAGAN said he quite understood the Bureau's
interest in the statements attributed to him by the Chicago
press regarding the alleged Communist drive on the Holly-
wood motion picture industry because they were rather
sensational, however, they also quite exaggerated if con-
sidered with reference to current Conditions.

REAGAN said that actually the reporter who wrote 
the account of his speech at Chicago had done a very poor
Job; that in REAGAN's opinion, the reporter must have drafted
his account strictly from the introductory part of 
Speech which deals with the Communist situation in Hollywood
during the 1945-1947 period.

REAGAN recalled that he was very actiVe himself
in combatting and exposing the Communist?led strike situation
in the film industry during that period; and that as of that
time, all of the statements were probably very true, i e. that
Communists "were crawling out of the rocks" in Hollywood,
that the Communist Party had "ordered a massive infiltration
of the film industry" and that the Communists Were attempting
to consolidate Hollywood guilds and unions "under the umbrella/fi
of HARRY BRIDGES Maritime Union" . At any rate, those state-
ments referred to the 1945-19?7 period.

REAGAN said he has never intentionally stated
publicly or otherwise that these conditions prevail today
in Hollywood, although he believes the Communist Party
will always regard the film industry as a prime target.

In answer to specific questions, Mr. REAGAN said

the Communist Party has no influence whatever,.insofar as he
is aware, in the Screen Actors Guild the International
Alliance of Theatrical and Stage Employees Screen
Directors Guild or the Motion Picture Producers
Association thinks there may be some pro-Commu~
nist sentiment in the_Writers Guild of America (formerly
the Screen Writers Guild), which now includes all radio
and television writers. rHowever, he said he has no information
nor does he believe that WGA is in any controlled by Communist
elements at this time.

Mr. REAGAN said he feels that the producers may be
getting away from the so-called Waldorf Agreement not to
hire Communists which was entered into by the major film
producers following the 1947 House Committee on Un-American
Activities hearings on Communist_infiltration of the film
industry. REAGAN points out that there_are hundreds of
independent producers who are not bound by the agreement; and
that many of these shut their eyes to a writer's or actor's
politics if there is a good chance "to make a fast buck".

He also believes it is not popular to be an active
or outSpoken anti-Communist; that those who are or have
been just do not seem to get the picture assignments they once
did. REAGAN said he himself has felt this, although it is
something difficult to prove or put one?s finger on. He com-
mented that it is comparatively much easier to get an anti?
Fascist story accepted for film or television than it is to
get one accepted which is anti?Communist.

In regard to the current extent of Communist
infiltration or_ influence in the Hollywood film and television
industry, Mr. REAGAN said he had no specific confidential
sources or any first-hand information. However, he feels
that one who has been actively following and combatting
the Communist movement in Hollywood over the years, such as
himself, can acquire a nose for these matters; that one
can "smelln a situation when it starts to develop.. He
said.that he has no way of knowing who is a Communist to the
ectent of being able to prove it, although, based on his past
active participation in the fight against the Party during the

1940's and the exposures by the various House Committee on

of how the Communists elements work. -

Mr. REAGAN said he has in the past and will

continue to furnish the Bureau with any information which
he regards as pertinent regarding these matters.

his wife JANE EMMAN as to their knowledge of Communist activity with- 

in the Screen Actors Guild of which they are members.

During the course of the interview; the meeting described
in reference letter was discussed and REAGAN stated he was present
and that this meeting was precipitated by the fact he and nine other
members of HIGOASP had attempted to create an issue to justify their
resignations. REAGAN and this group of nine individuals advocated
the ad0ption of a reselution by HICOASP to the effect that the organi-
zation was opposed to Communism as well as Facism. The meeting re- 
ferred to was called to discuss such a resolution and was opened by
JAMES ROOSEVELT, who, according to REAGAN, very timidly made the state?
ment, "we all know our organization is not dominated by Communists but
to pacify some of our more timid.memhers, pen aps we should adopt some
Kind of resolution against it." REAGAN adv ed considerable discussion
pro and con ensued and finalLy JOHN HOWARDZ WSON took the floor and
stated positively and somewhat prolongedly, "Regardless of how much
discussion occurs here, I can tell you this much for certain, HICOASP
will never pass any resolution condoning Communism or condoning capi-
talimn." LAWSON then offered a compromise resolution? which, acOOrd-
ing to REAGAN, hardly touched on the question of Communism and 
was unacceptable to group, which then insisted upon the
adoption of their resolution which condemned both.Commnnism and Facism
in definite terms.

At a subsequent meeting, a vote was taken on the resolution
and group lost by a count of sixty to ten whereupon REAGAN
resigned from HIGCASP the same evening by telegraph.

Memo to Mr. Nichols May 2ii 1951

In 1949 Reagan was cast for a starring role opposite Ida
Lupino in ?Fugitive From Terror" but retired from the cast in June
1949 after breaking a leg playing in a charity baseball game. In
that year, Reagan signed a five year contract for one picture a
year with Universal-International. Reagan is under exclusive con-
tract to Varner Brothers First National Studios.

Reagan became active in the Screen Actors Guild in 1941
and became a member of the Board of Directors in 1946. In 194? he
was elected to serve the unexpired term of Robert Montgomery as
President of the Screen Actors Guild. In a subsequent campaign for
that office Reagan was opposed by ?Left?wing Members," but won the
.office in November 1947, was elected for a second term in 1948, and
1was re-elected in 1949 as President of the Guild.

 

Writing as a vacation substitute for Victor Riesel, New

York Post labor columnist, on 6?24?47, Reagan, speaking for himself
and past presidents of the Guild, Ceorge.Murphy, Edward Arnold, and
Robert.Montgomery, declared that they were violently opposed to
?indiscriminate Red~baiting" but urged that every union realize the
menace of Communism seeking to infiltrate trade unions. Victor
Riesel was quoted as commanding the ability of Reagan which he said
would be useful to the AII.

Reagan testified before the Heuse UnaAmerican Activities
Committee in October 1947 at which time he claimed that Communists
in the Guild constituted only one percent of its members.

Reagan in 1949 was named Chairman of the.Motion Picture
Industry Council which in that year passed a resolution promising
cooperation with law enforcement agencies in ?ridding the community"
of criminal elements, and recommended that young newcomers to the
movie studios be thoroughly schooled in personal behavior and
responsibilities.

During the 1948 Presidential election the actor, who serves
on the board of the Hollywood chapter of the American Veterans
Committee, organized the Labor League of Hollywood Voters, backed by
twenty?one AFL unions, in support of President Truman's candidacy.

Reagan is a member of the Friars Club and attends the
1 Christian Church.

 

In January 1940 the actor married Jane Wyman and they have
two children. They were divorced in July 1949.'

Reagan is described as 6? 1" tall, weight 175 lbs., blue
eyes, and brown hair. His address is 0/0 Warner Brothers, c/o The
Screen Actors Build in Hollywood, and his home is at 360 North Camden
Drive, Beverley Hills, California.

ORGANIZATTONS

. A report of the Los Angeles Q?fioe dated June 17, 1946,
contained information that Ronald Reagan attended a conference
luncheon of the AVG in Los Angeles. At that time he introduced

a speaker at the luncheon. In the report appears the statement
that the conference adopted a program'Vin complete conformity-with
that of the communist.Party line," and there was stated that affew
Communists were active in the AVG. The report, however, contained
%no information regarding Communist activity on the part of Reagan
ior his own associates. (100-339008-31)

The Paso Robles Press on 8?20?46 carried an article
regarding an AVG meeting and mentioned Reagan as active in the
national organization, along with F. D. Roosevelt, Jr., Harold
Stassen, Tyrone Power, Sterling Hayden, et al. (lOOu339008?49)

 

A confidential source reported plans for an AVG dinner
to be held at the Plaza Hotel in New York Gity in November, 1946.
Ronald Reagan was listed as a member of the National Finance Gom-
mittee of the AVG, whose chairman was Newbold.Morris. (100-339008-109)

Committee Fer A Democratic Far Eastern Policy

A Los Angeles Q?fice report of 4?11-46 mentions the
Los Angeles Committee For A Democratic Tar Eastern Policy, described
by a confidential informant as being a Communist front pressure
group-set up to support Soviet Union foreign policy in the Orient.
The report contains the statement "the Communist nature of the
e?fort is located (in Holly-
location is continuously used by Communists as a
propaganda center." The report then lists Ronald Reagan as one of
'the "sponsors and directors, all of whom have records of Gommunist
activity or sympathies." No?further details along this line are
contained in the report with respect to Reagan. (100-138754-124) 

In Jane, 1946, the letterhead of the Committee For A Demo-
cratic Far Eastern Policy carried the name of Ronald Reagan as one
of the sponsors who included Irving Potash, Dowey Wilkerson, Louise R.
Bransten, Paul Robeson, and others. (100-64700-488)

that the ADA in Hollywood is "left, and that the majority of its 
members had at one time or other been members of Communist front
groups over a period of years. As being typical of such indipiduals,
according to a confidential infOrmant, there was listed the name of
Ronald Reagan. Also listed were Leo Rosten, walter wanger, Reloyn
Douglas, and others, "who are affiliated with AIM but who have helped
the Communist movement." (100?138754-461)

a A confidential informant of the Los Angeles Q?fice
reported in 1948 that in an e?fort to ?whitewash" charges of Com-
munism in the movie industry, there had been organized the.Motion
Picture Industry Council under Mr. Dore Schary, to cover up and
play down all public information relating to Communist activities.
Among the members of this group was Ronald Reagan, and also named
was Cecil B. DeMille and others. (100-138754-481)

At a meeting during June, 1949, Y. Eh freeman, an execu-
tive of Paramount Studios, referred to Ronald Reagan as being exem-
plary in avoiding unintentional listing of his name by Communist
front groups. (100?138754?525)

In September 1949, Ronald Reagan was nominated for
re-election as head of the Guild. (100-138754-545)

A confidential informant of the Los Angeles Q?fice in

November 1950 reported that the Guild was controlled by a group
of actors who were actively opposed to Communism. Ronald Reagan
had been reuelected as President in November 1950 and was out-

3 oken in his oppoSition to Communist activities in

definitely an anti-Communist Guild leader.

source) the confessed Communist Sterling Hayden referred to his.
Hollywood cell activities in the movie industry during 1946.

He said his group made no progress because of the Board qf

TESTIMONY BEFORE COMMITTEE

Ronald Reagan was one of a number of {friendly witnesses"
called to testify before the House Committee on_un-American -
Activities during October 1947. ,He said that he had been a member
of the Screen Actors Guild since June 193?; that he had received
literature from the Committee for a Far Eastern Democratic Policy
which he could not identify as being Communist or_not and with
whose views he disagreed; that he was duped through a telephone
call to lend his name as sponsor of a recital which he later
learned was actually under auspices of the Jaint anti-Fascist 
Refugee Committee;~and that he recognized the Communist strategy
of using the names of prominent people to raise money and gain
support. -

um. Reagan recognised the Communist Party as being a
political party and said he hesitated to see any political party?
3 outlawed on the basis of its political ideologies. If an organi-
I nation proved to be an agent of a.foreign power, that is another
matter. He referred to disruptive Communist a?forts in the Guild

but he referred to Communism as being a very small group in
the organization. He said that he abhors Communist philosophy
but as a citizen he never wanted to see our country submit to
fear to the extent that we would compromise with any of our
democratic principles. (100-138754- 362)

ASSOCIATES

A Los Angeles Q?fice report describes a cocktail
party held in Beverly Hills during.November 1943 at which time
Ronald Reagan almost came to blows with a man who made anti-
Semitic remarks. He also had an argument with Edward G. Robinson
at the party, no details given. (100-146517-33)

ported that in march 1943  (reportedl a member inb6
the Communist Party in Hallywood) was asked b7c

to try and raise campaign.funds for.Mr. Borough,
Congressional candidate, by cont ting Ronald Reagan, Thomas Bonn,
Olivia De Havilland, and 

DEMOCRACY

The Los Angeles foice obtained from a Los Angeles

police officer a copy of a radio script broadcast on September

9, 1946, in Los Angeles under the title "Operation Terror"-which
was presented by Mobilization for memocracy, an alleged communist
front organization. This organization was reported to be under
the direction of Robert R2 Kenny, Attorney General sf the State
of California. Its Executive Secretary was William R. Bidner,
described as a Communist Party?functionary. The radio broadcast
Ewas narrated by Ronald Reagan and purported to list a number cf -
Elna Klan acts qf terrorism in the Los Angeles area. A plea
swas made for cooperation to bring about better understanding among
Idi?ferent elements cf society,regardless af race, creed or color.


CONTACTS WITH FBI

In September 1941, Special Agent Charles C. Browning, Jr.
submitted a memorandum to Mr. Clegg pointing out that as Assistant
Executive Secretary of the college fraternity Tau Kappa Epsilon
he was in a position to make contacts with a number of persons
including Ronald Reagan. In a letter from the Director 9-26?41,
Special Agent Browning was thanked and was asked to contact Ronald?'
Reagan and the other individuals named, furnishing them the names
of our various Special Agents in Charge. (66- -2542-7560)

On April 10, 1947, Special Agents Richard B. Auerbach
and Fred G. anuis interviewed Ronald Reagan and his wife, Jane
Wyman, as to their knowledge of Communist activity within the
Screen Actors Guild. Reagan described a meeting at the home of
James Roosevelt in Beverly Hills, California, of July 5, 1946.
This was a meeting of the Hollywood Independent Citizens Committee
cf the Arts, Sciences and Prqfessions. Reagan and.his group
advocated a resolution opposing Communism as well as Fascism.

John Howard Lawson was present and declared that no resolution
would ever be passed condemning Communism. The resolution proposed
by Reagan was voted down whereupon he resigned from the organi-
zation that same evening by telegraph. (100:33892-l24)

- ?Jgighl? 

 

In a letter dated October 24, 1947, to the Director,
Mr. Quentin Reynolds made reference to a dinner which they had
attended and at which Ronald Reagan had made a passing remark
that or. Reynolds was said to be a Communist. (This is mentioned
in this memorandum because the letter from.Mr. Reynolds indicates
that the Director and Ronald Reagan were both present at the .
dinner in question) (94-34419-9) -

?On December 19, 1947, the Los Angeles foice reported
information concerning Communist activities in the motion
picture industry. The investigative report sets forth the in-
formation received by Special Agent Fred C. Dupuis from 
(Ronald Reagan, President of the Screen Actors Guild.) .Reagan
said that he had been made a member of a committee headed by
L. B. mayor for the purpose of purging the motion picture industry
-af Cammunists. Reagan referred to the House un-American Activities
iCommittee hearings conducted by Chairman Thomas in Washington, D. C.
as being regrettable. Reagan thought that the "unfriendlvaitnesses"
should have been allowed to make the prepared statements they had
Eready, and they would have condemned themselves in the eyes of the
{public more efficiently than the Committee was able to do. He
(criticized the attitude of the Committee Investigator, Stribling.
:Reagan said that the group to which he, himself; belonged did not'
{have a sound program for eliminating Communism, because it was
jimpossible to identify Communist Party members, some of whom he
iwas convinced were members of the Guild. Reagan was convinced that
Congress should outlaw the Communist Party and that Congress should
-define organizations which are Communist controlled. (100-138754-3679

POSSIBLE TELEVISION SHOW





 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By reference from the Director/s Office, I talked with Ronald Reagag,
the movie star, at 1: 20 p. m. 26- 60. Mr. Reagan had just finished reading the
Director 8 pamphlet, "Communist Target-?Youth. He was very enthusiastic. He
stated he has a Sinday night television show which has a viewing audience of 30 million
people. It is the eneral Electric Theater. He mentioned that this was a very high
type show and the programs usually are of the. type that will render a public service.

 

Mr. Reagan felt that the Director's pamphlet should receive considerable
publicity throughout the United States. He expressed the thought that the entire
population should be made aware of the communist danger. He would like to base a
future Sunday night program upon the pamphlet if the Director has no objections. He
stated that the locality in which the youth riots occurred (San Francisco) would naturally
be changed and that all names would be fictionalized in view of legal problems involved.
He pointed out that the show would reflect innocent appearing students on a college
campus and how these students could be duped by the communists into carrying on
subversive activities.

Mr. Reagan also brought up the possibility of the Director appearing on 4,
his television show at the conclusion of the program. He stated if the Director could 
not come to California he would be happy to have a camera crew film the Director in 
his office. He stated this would lend great authenticity and dignity to his program. Z543..-
He would request the Director to give approximately 2 to 3 minutes of remarks
concerning the danger of communism and particularly communist infiltration of youth.

I

I told Mr. Reagan that the Director would be very pleased at his interest
inthis matter and would, of course, correspond with him in the very near future. He
was told of the Director?s travel status at the present time. He was additionally advised
that the Director? 5 very tight schedule usually precludes him from appearing on

television or radio and that such would undoubtedly be the case in. this instance; however,

 

the matter would be checked. :23. 94" a.

Possible TV Show

Ronald Reagan-is, of course, well known to the Director as an anti?
communist. He has paid several visits to the Los Angeles Office and we have had
cordial relations with him.

 

ACTION:

Inasmuch as Reagan's program would undoubtedly do a great deal of
good, it is suggested that we offer no objections to the program. This should serve
as a great public service, if produced prope and should additionally furnish
considerable desirable publicity for the Director' 5 amphlet,"Commun1s Target--Youth.?

 

Mr. Reagan specifically indicated he would appreciate very much our 
- informally reviewing his script whenever. it was written concerning the program.

1? Mr. Reagan did not ask for any teChnical or consultant advice in connection with this
program. He merely desires permission from the Director to use the pamphlet and

to have the Director on his program.

There is attached a suggested letter to Reagan. Theletter additionally

informs Mr. Reagan that the Director, because of his heavy schedule of commitments,
cannot appear'on the program although? the invitation is deeply appreciated.

MASTER OF CEREMONIES

BACKGROUND:

 

You will recall that the captioned individual telephoned the
Director's Office on 26?60, and upon referral, you talked to him. Reagan
was interested in producing a television show for the "General Electric
Theater" shown on a national network on Sunday evenings on the subject
of Mr. Hoover's pamphlet, "Communist Target- -Youth. He was very
enthusiastic about the pamphlet and stated that he would like the Director
to appear on the show at the conclusion of the program and give approximately
two or three minutes of remarks concerning the danger of communism and
particularly communist infiltration of youth.

You told Mr. Reagan that the Director would be pleased at his
interest and that you would bring the request to his attention and that Mr. Hoover
would write him in the near future concerning this matter. Reagan did not ask
for technical advice in connection with the program but particularly wanted

permission from Mr. Hoover to use the pamphlet as the basis for the script (79
and to have the Director appear on his program. 


Mr. Tolson commented that he doubted the wisdom of permitting
the program with our consent as any misunderstanding would be attributable
to us. The Director concurred in this observa?, i0 ,9

REG- 33 '7 31/ Q?w if;
The Director wrote Reagan on 84,) 31- 60 thanking him for his interest

I, in producing the television show but declining to appear on the program. The
Director's letter also stated that such a program would necessarily require
our technical assistance to accurately portray the communist methods in
infiltrating youthful groups but that we were not in a positionto c00perate in

such roductionReagan again telephonedm?e Director on 9 8 60 and declined to
speak to an assistant when Mr. Hoover's absence was explained. He said 


 

perhaps he would try to contact the Director tomorrow morning, Friday,

September 9, and while he did not explain his reason for callingthe Director's pamphlet as the basis for a telev ion production.

Jones to DeLoach Memorandum
Re: Ronald Reagan

BIOGRAPHICAL DATA:

 

Ronald Reagan was born in Tampico, Illinois, on 2-6-11 and
was graduated from Eureka, Illinois, College with an A. B. degree in 19 32.
He began his career as a newspaperman but switched to sports announcing
on station WHO in Des Moines, Iowa, where he was employed from 1932 to
1937. He has been a prominent motion picture actor since 1937 and is one
of Hollywood? most active political figures and considered very conservative
by Hollywood standards. He served as a Captain in the Air Force in
World War II, was married?and divorced from actress Jane-Wyman and is
presently married to Nancy Davis. He was President of the Screen Actors
Guild, 1949?19 51; breeds thoroughbred horses and trains hunters and jumpers.

INFORMATION IN BUFILES:

 

The Bureau has not investigated Ronald Reagan. Our files
do contain numerous references to him chiefly in connection with his anti-
communist activities in different Hollywood organizations. Informants
have advised us that he is definitely anticommunist and he so indicated
when he appeared before the House Committee on UnmAmerican Activities
as a friendly witness in October, 194.7. He has been contacted on several
occasions by Agents of our Los Ang?eles Office and in every instance has
been cooperative and helpful; he in turn has visited our Los Angeles Office,
and our relations with him have been cordial. (100-38219 6)

RECOMMENDATION:

 

For the Director's information in the event Ronald Reagan
calls him on Friday, September 9, 1960.

Mr. DeLoach advised theft Mr. Reagan indicated he
appreciated very much Ehe consideration given on his
call to Mr. DeLoach on August 26 and also the letter
which he received from the Director dated August 31.
He said he was somewhat disappointed inasmuch as
the Director had indicated it would be impossible to
c00perate regarding this matter, which was to permit
him to do a television program regarding the Director's
pamphlet ?Communist Target - Youth" and for the
Director to appear at the end of this program.
Mr. Reagan pointed out that he knew of the grave
importance of communist infiltration of our youth
and he thought it highly desirable to produce a TV
program based on the San Francisco riots, which,
however, would not mention the Director's pamphlet
or involve the FBI in any manner. He stated he wanted
an alarmist?type program to awake the American
public to the fact that ?it; can happen here. He intends

r- .

to show how college students can be duped into
carrying out the work of the communists. Reagan
said that he would be the narrator of the program.
He said he had recently seen the TV portrayal of
the Sacco - Vanzetti case and he thought this was
distorted to favor/the "sob sisters? viewpoint and
he thought it? was high time somebody reflected
the true facts as to what the communists are trying
to do. He said he sincerely hoped the Director
would not think he was trying to plagiarize the
magnificent pamphlet which the Director wrote
concerning the San Francisco riots. He reiterated
he would not involve the FBI or the Director in this
program. 

Mr. De Loach emphasized the fact that the FBI could
not offer any service to him regarding the program

in view of our heavy responsibilities. He said he
fully understood this but after the script has been
written, he is h0peful that we will take a look at it.
Mr. DeLoach told Mr. Reagan, while the Director
could not interpose any objection to a public service
program which did not mention the name of the FBI or
the Director's pamphlet "Communist Target - Youth, 
he should be very careful not to infer that this program
is FBI sponsored. Mr. Reagan stated this would
certainly be done.

St??ml Teachers'? Tries, Fails4o

Muffle Ron Reagan's Spiel To Students

St. Paul, Jan. 31. Fearing a
political talk, the St. Paul Federa-
tion, of Teachers didn?t want, gen;
alas'itea ,an, to be allowed to "ma 8
an address to students at this
city?s largest high school.

The body protested to the local
school board against the schedul-
ing of the talk, but in vain. Board
refused to call it off.

Brought to St. Paul by its area
Chamber of Commerce to speak at
that body?s annual membership
meeting and to participate in the
local Winter Carnival celebra-
ti n, Reagan was persona non
*ata to the teachers? organiza-
ti n. That?s because he?s generally
sidered to be a Spokesman for
extreme conservative point of
view.

In its protest letters to the
schools? superintendent and school
board members, the Teachers?
Federation asked for the establish-
ment of ?a policy dealing with the
presence of controversial issues in
the forum of the school assembly.?

Chamber of Commerce of?cials
said that the ?schOOl administra?
tion? itself requested that Reagan
be made available for the high
school talk. It was stated that
neither the Chamber nor anyone 
else had advance information'as to
t' 8 nature of the actor?s talk, but .
at there was no reason to believ 
i would be political. 

What Reagan did talk abou
mostly to the students was th
danger of communism, especiall

to youth. He Spoke in several areas
of political dispute, expressing the
viewpoint that compulsory health
insurance is not the answer to the
problem of illness among old
people and that the income tax is
unfair.

Upon his arrival from Holly?
wood at a press conference, when
apprised of the Teachers Federa-
tion protest, Reagan said that ?in

fairness, they should wait and hear 

what somebody says before attack-
mg.

?It?s a sad day if you can?t dis-
cuss issues without being attacked
in advance,? he told the reporters.

?Who is defending- the extreme
right?? asked Reagan, who men-

tioned that he?s not a John Birch-

Society member.

?It seems that people determine
what is extreme right by looking
at you from the far left. The same
people who were labeled pinks and
other Such terms, and who 

retested, see nothing: wrong- in
taking on the ?neo fascists? an
the ?lunatic fringe?.?

While in the Turin Cities, Re
gan also addressed the Minn
apolis Conservative Citizens Club.

Ronald Reagan, the well-known actor who announced his candidacy

"Meet The Press" TV show on Channel 4 (NBC) at 1:00 p. m. 1/9/66. W)

Reagan was queried considerably concerning the John Birch Society

but had not made the same denunciations of the John Birch Society. In reply, he 5

answered that the Communist Party and the Ku Klux Klan had been listed as .

subversive by the Department of Justice and that the FBI had not found anything 
subversive in the Birch Society. He also commented that the State of California hag 
investigated the Birch Society but found nothing subversive. He called for a 
Congressional investigation to ?clear the air. .

Reagan was also asked why he decided to run for Governor and he ?g

replied that the people in California have been living under a dictatorial fiat long 8

enough. He was also questioned concerning a statement allegedly attributed to him 

that he did not support the Civil Rights Bill. He stated this was erroneous and if?:

that this comment was attributed to him after a long explanation pointing out certain
weaknesses which he felt existed in the Bill as passed. He indicated that this

statement certainly should not be interpreted as being an indication of his being anti-
civil rights.

Overwall, Reagan made a good appearance and was quite quick and
witty in answering the numerous questions put to him which could have been - A

considerably embarrassing to his future political ambitions. 9

a column by?John Chamberlain which discusses California politics in general but
specifically?reiers to Ronald Reagan, who Chamberlain claims made far the best
speech of the 1964 campaign for Barry Goldwater. Chamberlain states that Reagan
usedto be a'Democrat, "and once so it is now charged by some of his enemies,

for Barry Goldwater. He has spoken in various parts of the country on the evils of

Re: RONALD REAGAN

Although he has been extremely anticommunist since about the mid-
1940?s, he was reportedly a sponsor of the Committee for a Democratic Far Eastern 1/
Policy, which has been designated by the Depamm?f' to Executive
Order 10450. In testimony before the House Committee on Un?American Activities
in October, 1947, he said that he had received some literature from this organization,
and that he was duped through a telephone call to lend his name as sponsor of a recital
which he later learned was under the auspicies of the Joint Anti-Fascist Refugee 

Committee. It is noted in his testimony that he said he abhorlbd the communist
[philos0phy.



 

In the 1940's Reagan was reportedly a member of Americans for
Democratic Action and the American Veterans Committee. In 1950 Dore Schary,
prominent Hollywood personality, indicated he and Reagan, as well as others, had been
active in the Hollywood Citizens Committee of the Arts Sciences and
Professions in 1945, but got out that year when communists took over. Reagan became
President of the Screen Actors Guild in 1947 and was subsequently re- e-lected. He was
extremely active in the Guild in opposing the communists.

Reagan has visited our Los Angeles Office and relations with him have
been cordial. In 1960 he contacted the Bureau regarding his desires to do a television
show for the "General Electric Theater, which he narrated, on the Director's 
?Communist Target??Youth. This was declined. On his "General Electric Theater"
series, Reagan has. produced a two-part program concerning the activities of

In March, 1960, we cooperated with Reagan by making inquiries here in
Washington regarding Maureen Reagan, the daughter of Jane Wyman and Re an who
was living with a married Metropolitan Police officer here in Washingtonl I
I I Our inquiries appeared to confirm this
situation and information was furnished on a confidential basis to now Senator George
Murphy, who originally contacted our Los Angeles Office in the matter. Maureen had,
in 1959, been the subject of a favorable Departmental applicant-type investigation in
connection with Immigration and Naturalization Service employment; however, the
investigation was discontinued. 3136

It is noted that in December, 1964, we received word that the San Diego
Patriotic Society (SDPS) intended to make an "American Patriot Award" to the Director
for his outstanding services to the United States of America. If therewas nothing in the
files to prevent doing so, the SAC, San Diego, was instructed he could accept the award
on behalf .of the Director. The award is connected with the American Patriot Hall of
Fame which is sponsored by the SDPS, a conservative group, and several other local
conservative organizations. Some time in April the presentation Will be made at a

formal meeting attended by Ronald Reagan, John Wayne and perhaps former Senator
Barry Goldwater, who has been given such an award.

Dear Mr. Hoover: 
In recent weeks my staff and I have worked out an anti crime program fo ff

California that in large part would entail strengthening and improving our
law enforcement procedures.

 

. 
As part of the program we would hope next year to present to the Legisla? 7
ture legislation setting up a state law officers academy aimed at providing
the best training possible for all California law officers.?

In conjunction with this, we would seek to establish a criminology labora-
tory that would utilize the latest equipment and techniques availab?e in
the prevention and solution of crime. In addition it would be a research
laboratory aimed at developing new procedures, techniques and equipment.

We feel that the continually increasing crime rate, especially in Califor-
nia, makes establishment of these two facilities imperative.

Because of your long record, not only of successfully fighting crime, but
also of developing new techniques and methods, and because you have given
the United States a crime-fighting force second to none in the world, we
are eager to have your aid and advice in this project.

position to pursue the matter further, I would like very much to contact
you again. In the meantime, Californians are demanding an answer to the
growing incidence of crimeiingthe state, and I would be grateful, indeed,
if you could give serious consideration to aiding tn this effort.

GLDisput

By Drew Pm

General Electric has written;
a letter to editors, taking exJ
ception to a recent column
regarding the long affiliation
between GE 
and ~Ronald-
Rea an, 

lican
nominee 
Gavernor of
California.

It is 
i clear
from the let-
ters whether
GE 5 ks to 
disassociat-e it- Pearson
self from the right-wing views
of Reagan. The net effect,

   
   

 

however, is to muddy the po-

 

litical water.

Let me try to unmuddy it.
In the column complained of,
I stated that General Electric
had changed from the old
days when three executives
were sent to jail and the
corporation itself was given a
fine of almost $1 million. How-
ever, since GE now accuses
me of misstatements, let?s ex-
amine the GE-Reagan record.

First, and most important,
the column in question stated
that what Reagan is now sell-
ing California voters is ?anti-

;communism, morality in gov-

- ernment, and platitudes about



nm 1:

never acted as ?official spokes-

 

.fairness to the working man.?
!And, I said, for 10 years Rea-
gan was the TV?radio spokes-
man for General Electric.

Not GE Spokesman

General Electric now cor-
regt? me on the terms.

Rea an worked, stating it was
]only eight, 'whic'hmd to

man? but rather as i?host and
oc?casional star of the ?General
Electric Theater? and that if
he talked to labor leaders on
his tours, ?he did so only
when they were included in
large audiences of employee at
General Electric plants.? GE
also states that it never
?edited or censored Reagan?s
speeches.?

Executives of the Interna-
tional Union. of Electrical
Workers inform me, and are
willing to testify, that Reagan

in selling'ihe line?that

union was necessary, was
vehement? against Medicare,
generally downgraded
plight of older people and
their need for aid, and made
a pitch for a John Birch-type
of foreign and domestic policy.

Obviously GE made no at-
tempt to edit or censor him.

GE _was also involved in the
conspiracy to fix prices for
which three of its executives
later went to jail and for which
it was fined the highest
amount ever thrown at a cor-

the .

 

poration in a criminal case.
Reagan, who now preaches:
morality to the California
voters, was either willing to
ignore this or didn?t know.
about it. If the latter is true,'
which I am inclined to believe,
he was not as, alert as the
Governor of a g??'nsfate

must be, to prevent graft and
com 

 

Battle on/ Communism

Reagan did not have to be
alert, however, to know of the
battle over communism that
took place inside General
Electric between two of its
unions. All he had to do was
read.

If he had read the papers,
including this column, he
would haVe known better than
to get hooked up with a com-
pany which did nothing to
clean out a pro-Communist
union.

Norman Harrington,
signs himself in letters to
editors ?Public Information,
,General Electric,? states ?We
are completely confounded by
the statement that a Senate
Labor sub-Committee. headed
by Hubert Humphrey dealt
with what is perported to be
General Electric anti-labor
policies.? Harrington also went
into an involved explanation
of how GE continues to do
business with a pro-Commu-

Who

.nist union, blaming this on a

{vote staged by the NLRB.

The Senate report, which

Harrington ,does not know,
about, is captioned, ?Commu-?
nist Domination of Unions
and National Security? cover?

page 26, the Senate Commit-

?We feel justified in com-

Corp. on the theme of ?aiir

The essence of the theme is:a

ence is to the UE and the IUE
respectively.

?This is an amazing state.

prehcnsion of the forces at
work in this world in the year
1952. If an employer says in
effect ,there is no difference
between a Communist union
and an anti-Communist union,
it is understandable
many workers may not pay
too much attention to a valid
charge that a union is Com-
munist-controlled. Not 'to make
this distinction, as apparently
General Electric and other
employers have not, is to play

 

 

the Communist theme song.?

1952. Ronald Reagan can read.

By letter 8?24?66, the Director stated in response to
Reagan's letter of 8-19-66, concerning plans to strenghten law

local, State and Federal agencies to more effectively combat crime.
The Director invited him to call upon the FBI for assistance in matters

In a recent conversation about the fall elections 
a friend que?aioned the political background of Governor? 
61903 Ronald Reagan of California. He asserted that
a "card carrying member of the
Communist Party". When I pressed my friend for his

source of information he attributed it as a quotation
??Trom yOu. 

 

It would be greatly appreciated if you could clear 9
this clouded situation as you are a well known authority 3'

on the international Communist movement and its growth
in America.

Such accusations are not new in American politics, 
but they seem to be more prevalent in the rise of the
political career of the new Governor of California. His?;
association with the Screen Actors Guild has led to a
great amount of it. But I believe it was at this point
in his life that he became aware of the infiltration of

Communism in the movie industry and initiated a cleaning
of the industry.

 

Thank you for your time and trouble. YOur response?
will uncloud some muddy waters.

On November 17, 1966, Mr. Mulford visited the .
Bureau and spoke to SA John W. O'Beirne, Crime Re search Section.

CALI FORNIA LEGISLATURE

i?


Mr. Mulford explained that he has been a long? ?time friend
of the FBI and is well?known to our San Francisco OffiCe. He said
that during his term in the California Legislature he has introduced
a number of bills designed to assist law enforcement in that state.
He recently introduced a measure which will make it a felony to
attack a police officer while he is on official business.

 



Mr. Mulford advised that as very active in the .
recent gubernatorial campaign of Renal eagan and desires to . 
exploit the Opportunity he feels exists to have Governor Reagan 



He said Phillip Battaglia, Reagan's
assistant, will be appointed by Reagan to head a ten member policy

guidance committee. F1100: 384/676 
He advised he was visitingl Egee whether or

not some arrangements can be worked out (Pig rmation given by

the Bureau to this committee through Battagliam to assist Governor Reagan
in identifying communists and other left yigg extremists. The purpose
will be either to eliminate them from theghovernment or to prevent their
receiving an appointment to a State position. Mulford said Reagan is
planning to clean up the University of California at Berkeley and that
shortly after beginning his campaign for Governor, Mulford invited him

to his home where, for two hours he was briefed by Mulford and a

number of his sources on the Berkeley campus concerning communist
efforts to in?uence the students in the University. He said that Reagan was
astounded at what'he heard and promised to make changes if he was elected.

M. A. Jones to Wick Memo
RE: Mr. Donald Mulford

Mr. Mulford was tactfully informed that although his
position was well understood, the FBI could not be placed in the position
of "clearing" appointees to State positions. He was reminded that .
information concerning communists and liberal personalities has
been a concern of the State of California Committee on Un-American
Activities which has been functioning in this field for many years.

Mr. Mulford replied that while he realizes the Bureau?s
position, he thought it would be well to place on record what he
believes to be the attitude of the incoming administration of his state
regarding these matters and he thought the Bureau would want to assist.
He was advised that we are precluded from the action he suggested.

Bufiles reflect Mr. Mulford has been a long-time friend
.of the Bureau and is on the Special Corresp'ondents? List. In addition'

to his position as a State he is a self?employed insurance
broker.

RECOMMENDATION:

 

. For information. Letter to California Offices attached,
them that in the event they are contacted by a Reagan representative
regarding this matter they should contact the Bureau for guidance.

W. E. B. DU BOIS CLUBS OF AMERICA (DCA)

A source has advised that on October 26-27, 1963,
a conference of members of the Communist Party (CP), including
national functionaries, met in Chicago, Illinois, for the purpose
of setting in motion forces for the establishment of a new
national Marxist- oriented youth organization which would hunt for
the most peaceful transition to socialism. The delegates were
told that it would be reasonable to assume that the young
socialists attracted into this new organization would eventually
pass into the CP itself.

A second source has advised that the founding convention
for the new youth organization was held from June 19-21, 196%, at
150 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, California, at which time
the N. E. B. DuBois Clubs of America (DCA) was adopted. Approx~
imately 500 delegates from throughout the United States attended
this convention. The aims of this organization, as set forth in
the preamble to the constitution, are: ?It is our belief that this
nation can best solve its problems in an atmosphere of peaceful
coexistence, complete disarmament and true freedom for all peoples
of the world, and that these solutions will he reached mainly
through the united efforts of all democratic elements in our
country, composed essentially of the working people allied in the
unity of Negroes and other minorities with whites. We further fully
recogniZe that the greatest threat to American democracy comes
from the racist and right wing forces in coalition with the most
reactionary sections of the economic power structure, using the
tool of anti? Communism to divide and destroy the unified struggle
of the working people. 

. Over the Labor Day weekend, 1965, the DCA held a con-
ference in Chicago, Illinois, and a new slate of officers was
elected to the National Executive Committee (NBC) of the DCA.
Slnce Labor Day, 1965, identities of those serving on the NEC has
varied; however, according to a third source as of May, 1966,
thirteen of the fifteen members of the NBC were members of the CP
in the San Francisco Bay area.

As of July, 1966, the headquarters of the DCA was
located at 180 North Nacher Drive, Chicago, Illinois.

San Francisco advised on 1/14/67 that California
Lieutenant Governor Robert Finch had requested rep sentatives

of the Bureau to meet with him and Governor ?ggald?weagan on 

1/16/67 to discuss the situation at the University of California

comply with this request and to make no commitments but to
determine what the Governor had in mind Which prompted the request.

. The aforementioned meeting took place as scheduled

on 1/16/67. Governor- Reagan advised he is concerned about the

Berkeley campus. He indicated he is apprehensi?s1$hat1aqnew

Memorandum to Mr. DeLoach 
Re: STUDENT AGITATION, UNIVERSITY

OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA
loo?151646 .

 

As you know, the situatiOn at the University of 
{California at Berkeley has been an eXplosive one which has i
been exploited to a tremendous advantage by communists and 
other subversive elements. This situation was a political
issue during the last election and Governor i
determined to take appropriatemactign,to quell the unrest 
on the Berkeley campus. 

OBSERVATIONS:

 

We are instructing San wFrancich_to 

Governor MReagan? requesf?tb bemadvised of informationugh
dev61:op regarding plans for future demonstrations on:t_he Berkeley
campus or at hisnpress conferences, We are alsgminstructing.
Sa?fFranciscq,to confidwntially advise Governor Reagan that.we4

ave qumpertinentm information Kerr_ or th?_?9azd

:f'Regents: of the University of California? In addition, we
are requesting WSan Francisco? to prepare blind memoranda .
concerning faculty members and students at the University of i
California at Berkeley who have subversive affiliations. These

emoranda are to be forwarded to the Bureau for review.

This presents the eanreangwith an Opportunity to take
steps to thwart the ever.increasingiagitation 
subversive elements 6n the campuses. Berkeley has long been 
the "proving grounds for 6ampus agitators and agitators on
other campuses take their lead from activities which occurlat 

erkeley. ligagitationalcactiv1ty at,Berke1ey can be effectively

curtailed, this could set up a chain reac.tion which will.resu1t .in
the curtailment?of such activities QR Other campuses throughout
the United States. This would also be helpful to the FBIstrongly feel that the most effeCtive way to take 
advantage of this situation is to have a Bureau official, $h6 i
is thoroughly familiar with the Berkeley situation and subversive
activities in general, confidentially brief Governor Reagan. 
At that time, copies of the blind memoranda prepared by the 1
San Francisco Office regarding students and faculty members 
with subversive affiliations should be furnished to Governor
Reagan for his confidential information. Section Chief D, 
?Brennan of the Internal Security Section has the qualificatipns 
nit? this sensitive matterjanmherefore 
L6 recommend that he be designated to handle this assignment. 5

Dear Mr. Hoover:

 

 

It has recently come to my attention that the F.B.I.

will soon open a Division Headquarters in Sacramento

having jurisdiction over the newly established Federal 
Eastern Judicial District. This is gratifying as this 
will more ably assist all of us in our continuing figh 
against crime and subversion.

 

As I study the large area covered by the Eastern
District, I am favorably impressed with the wisdom of
your decision in this matter. I am vitally interested
in doing everything I can to combat the moral decay as
shown by our rising crime rate in our country today.
Having always had the highest regard for you personally
and the splendid record the F.B.I. has achieved, please

 

 

   
 

1 accept my personal assurance that your agency will have
the most complete cooperation possible from my office.

On March 10, 1967, Mr. A. E. Neilsen, Governor's
Office, State of California, Los Angeles, California, fur-
nished the following information to the Los Angeles Office
of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

. Neilsen stated that oneLj
quad advised his office that  ?'Junior
Role umble, had left the family home on March 9, 1967,
to kill the Governor of California. She said that Humble,
a retired Army Captain, is alcoholic and capable of an act
of violence when he is drinking. She reported that he was
armed with a derringer. -

According to Mr. Neilsen, the Pasadena, California,
Police Department reports that Humble is capable of any des-
perate act in that he has a past record of pulling a gun on
police and recently reportedly threatened an unknown person
with a knife. Humble has access to free military
transportation and reportedly might go to Las Vegas, Nevada.

Humble was described by Mr. Neilsen as white, male,
age 66, born February 13, 1901, at Leeds, South Dakota, six
feet tall, weight l?s pounds, blond hair, green eyes. He
has FBI No. 615l9lA and 011 No. 585104. He was last arrested
at San Bernardino, California, by the Sheriff's Office on
January 1967 on a charge of drunk driving.

Mr. Neilsen said that the Governor?s Office at
Sacramento, California, had been advised, and that Governor
Ronald Reagan was presently in Washington, D. C.

A review of the files of the FBI at Los Angeles
reflects that Humble is apparently identical with Junior
Roland Humble, subject of an Impersonation case in 1950.
Investigation at that time reflected that Humble was separated
from the Armed Forces in 1945 as retired. He was rated as

On June 14, 1967, I met briefly with Governor Reagan in

He said that he had the highest admiration for the Director and he
was extremely pleased that the Director's representative had called
on him.

Governor Reagan specifically requested that his kindest fr?. ?7 . 
personal regards be conveyed to the Director. 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

That this be routed to the Director for his information.

GOVERNOR RONAL EAGAN I)

 

D. C.

   

Mr. Eel-Gillenwater, Washington representative for Governor
Ronald Reagan of California, called on July 28, 1967, and advised that the
wife of the Governor's press secretary,W . and three
daughters plan to drive from Virginia to Sacramento, California, beginning
August 7,1967. He stated that Mrs. Nofziger desires to obtain a permit
to carry a pistol in her car for personal protection and Mr. Gillenwater 
requested guidance as to how this could be done.

 

After checking with ASAC McDermott of the Washington Field
Office, Mr. Gillenwater was advised that there is no:. such thing as a national
gun permit, neither is there any one agency which 'can authorize a person to?
carry a weapon in an automobile across the country, with the exception of
Federal officers of course. He was further advised that a driver is subject
to each state? particular laws regarding firearms. He was told that if
Mrs. Nofziger had a California police officer chauffeur for her it was 
possible that each state would recognize the authority of a state policeman 
to carry a weapon in an automobile and/ or from one state to another. :3

Mr. Gillenwater stated that he felt it was highly impossible for
them to make arrangements for a policeman- chauffeur. He then stated that
perhaps if Mrs. Nofziger was to become an honorary California police officer
she would be allowed to carry a pistol in her automobile without being subject
to arrest. He was advised that the FBI could make no decision in this regard.

Mr. Gillenwater was very appreciative for the information

furnished him. 35:1 .1 ,g . fg

After talking with Anderson, I called SAC Grapp and

there was no truth whatsoever to any statement that an FBI
Agent was involved in this matter, but that he had icked up

been found in a compromising position by a reporter an had
been blackmailed as a result. SAC Grapp mentioned that his
source of information stated this was the reason for

Pearson was out on the West Coast. I stated if he received

.1 It will be recalled that for the past several days press
stories have advised that a telegram or radiogram (or copy thereof)

- sent by Marvin Watson of the White House to Price Daniel on the SS
Independence during the Governors? Conference somehow fell into the
hands of Governor Ronald Reagan of California, who disclosed its
.contents to the press. There has been speculation in the press that

enforcement agency as a violation of the Federal Communications Act
of 1934. . 






UPI ticker of 10/24/67 reflects that the White House denied
any. knowledge of reports that the FBI planned to investigate the circum- 
stances which led to Reagan receiving a copy of this communication. The
UPI story said that Press Secretary George Christian of the White
House would not comment but .instead, referred questions to the FBI.
On this UPI ticker the Director has noted, assume we are not in on
this II. 

For the Director's information, we are not conducting any
investigation into this matter, nor have we received a request from the
Department Of Justice to conduct such an investigation as of this date.

We are so stating in inquiries being received from the press by my office.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24 
The ?chief radio operator of
the liner Independence
was suspended today pending
investigation of how'a White
House telegram got into the
wrong hands during the ship-
board Governors? Conference.

Shortly after the liner
.brought the National Gover-
9nors? Conference back to New
York, Capt. Charles W. Reilly
announced he was suspending
'chief radio operator Charles
Berger.

cruit support for a resolution
backing Mr. Johnson?s Viet-'
nam policy

Reagan told a news confer-
ence ?in Sacramento, 
today that he had not broken
any Federal law, intentionally
or accidentally, when he read,
and disclosed the radiogram?s
contents. 

The delivery of the telegram
to the wrong party could be
the subject of an investigation
either by the Marine Inspec?,
tion Office of the Coast Guard
or by the Federal Communica-

The mysterious ?purloined?ions Commission. The FBI

radiogram??as it came to be
.known during the Governors?
eight-day cruise to the Virgin
Islands?was sent' by White

House Aide-Marvin Watson to .

former Gov. Price Daniel of
Texas, President Johnson?s
liaison man..'at the floating
Cnference.

But the message ended up

24?Gov. Ronald Reagan de-
nied today'that he or his staff
had broken any law in reading
and disclosing the contents of
ancopy of a wire from the
White House to a Presidential
conference?of the nation?s Gov-
,ernors. . .
The Republican Governor
aide at last week?s shipboard
told reporters here that he had
received a copy of the radio:

dressed to him, as just one of

?gan ?but there were at least
a dozen that I know of-. 
mistaken deliveries. As a mat-?
ter of fact Paul Laxalt, Gov:
'ernor of Nevada, received a
message intended for me.? .
Mr. Reagan said he had not
been questioned by agents of
he Federal Bureau of Investil
ation about the incident", al-
though there was a report that
,Ethe bureau was participating ,in,
an investigation to determine

i. Whether Federal law had been-

violated by the disclosure of
the wire?s contents. -1

would have thought that?
Washington wouldhave pre-
ferred to just let the matter

Was intended for Price Daniel.
former Governor of Texas, who
was President Johnson's liaison

aboard the Independence on a
cruise to the Virgin Islands.

:The message, from W. Mar-
vin Watson, at special assistant'
to the President,? inciuded
suggestions for what "Mr.

Governors to get them to
support the resolution backing
the Administration?s Vietnam

A Form Letter. Reagan Thoughf

wwm?? 
What Reagan had to say was comparatively unimpmtant ex?1

cept that he thought he we just getting a. copy of a fo_11n letter

that while addressed to :liaison man on the cruise, 

Daniel of Texas, was in esumably for general distribution; 

5.. ,He should not have weaselcd. He had all sorts of pieccdents

 

fiom previous political wars to show that enemy co1respo1'1dence?;
belonged to anyone who could lay his hands on it and exploit it. 

As far back as the oldest pa1ty hack can remember, both parties?{
national committees and campaign operatives have operated 011 th'e'i
;basi_s that nothing should be put in uniting if secrecy is vital. Teoi
many times in the far distant past letters meant for the ?eyes on"ly??i
.of another loyal party ?gure have turned up in the other party?s
headquarters and in?uenced elections.

In 1964, there Was a big hassle with hypociitical cries of ?1311-; .
ethical? tossed around wildly. The GOP National Committee had;
placed a ?spy? in Democratic Party headquarteis. Copies of LBJ s'
travel plans wele leaked, so Barry Goldwate"rs managers knew\
where Johnson was going before local Dmocratic leadeis.

was a real cute trick, but the Reagan affair was more like
a case in the presidential election of 181_8, when Benjamin Harrison
beat G10ve1 Clevland by a narrow margin.

Just before Election Day that year, Blitish Ambassador Sack-
ville West was revealed to have written a letter to an A111er:ican.
citizen who pleaded for advice on how to vote as a British sympa3?
thizer. sackville West 1eplied in effect: Vote for Cleveland. .Andi
sine enough the diplomat? 5 letter ended up in GOP headquarters, as
splanned? .. 1. -

The Interesting Question of Ethics "ii

How about the ethics in that skulduggery, which definitely
Helpied Harlison win the election over incumbent Democrat Cleve-
an

 

1
i

And how about the ethics in Bairy Goldwater?s admitted she:
nanigans at the GOP National Convention in 1964? He admitted a
few weeks ago, and not sheepishly, that his suppmters had been
1eady to cut TV lines if at any time his GOP opposition appeared:
able to sway the delegates against him.

As for Reagan, some 'of his fancy- pants c1itics keep on insisting
that, in the Independence incident, he had taken the cynical appi oach
to politics when he had been expected to rise and shine above- the'
gutter of partisanship. This insane admonition has been based 011'-
?his nice-guy roles on the late- late shows.

In other words, he was letting down the little old ladies' in tennis;
shoes by acting like a big- time politician rather than a novice from

Hollywood.

Regardless of the ethical controversy over his conduct, 
is no valid argument about one result-?-what he did in connection
with the letter made the Texas mob, in and out of the White;
?,House look like rank amateurs.

credibility gap in Washington,
Reagan must stand scrutiny as
to his own credibility.

Hearst?s veteran political re-
porter, Marianne Means, was
told by Mississippi?s Gov. Paul
Johnson earlier this year that
he had advised Reagan in a
private conversation not to
run for the Presidential nomi-
nation in the South. Reagan
at a luncheon of United Press
International editors not only
called the story a ?lie? but
declared scornfully: ?Further-
more, I have never met Gover-
nor Johnson. She must have
been talking to the hippies at
Haight-AShbury.?

The enterprising Miss Means
produced a picture
of Reagan and Johnson hud-
dled together at a governors
affair.

Kossen, political writer
for the San Francisco Exam-
iner, told this column that he
had heard Reagan tell a lum-

63y? Jack Anderson

Four times in a 20- minute
press conference, Gov. Ronald
Reagan alst week called Drew
Pearson a li1.ar It was one of
the veteran actor?s most per
su-asive performances.

The point of Reagan?s per-
formance was that 4 Pearson
had lied-about the dismissal
of two sex deviates from the
Sacramento staff. Reagan de-
scribed the Pearson column as
?scurrilous? and ?ridiculous.?
;When reporters pressed him
about his investigation of
homosexuals in his official-

startled to read in Hedda Hop-

Reagan repeated his denial
in a letter to Sullivan, date-d

just never been a reader of
the Hollywood columns.?

Sullivan could swallow Rea-
gan?s story of the unreceived
letter, but he added with dis-
belief: ?This statement that a
Hollywood actor never read
the Hollywood columns is in-
credible.? .1 

When asked whether his
press secretary Nofziger
had discussed the homosexual
case with reporters on the
govern-ors? conference cruise,
Reagan snapped: am pre-
pared to say that nothing like
that ever happened 

Then he turned to his press
secretary and asked: ?Want

?Confirmed,? said Nofziger
grimly

Challenge for Sen. Javit't?}

For a long time Democratic
leaders. in New York have been
sitting on their swivel chairs
figuring that Sen. Jacob Javits,
the senior Republican of their
state, was unbeatable. -

However, a young Democratic
Congressman, Joseph Y. Res-
nick, from the Rip Van Winkle
country up the Hudson Valley;
lhas now decided to dispel their
defeatism. Resnick will an;
nounce this week that he will
run for the Democratic nomi-
nation for the Senate with a
View to taking on Javits.

Resnick, a Jewish liberal, Will
run on a pro-American ticket.
He intends to challenge what
he calls the ?hate-Americans?
and the ?peaceniks? who have
inspired draft card burnings
and peace marches.

Indirectly he will also chal-
lenge Sen Bobby Kennedy and
John Burns, New York State
Democratic chairman, who have
exuded a sense of defeatism re-'
garding bo?h Javits and the
Vietnam war.

Reference is made memorandum T. E. Bishop to

C. D. DeLoach dated January 12, 1968, captioned as above, which

enclosed a brief for the Director's information in connection with

Governor Reagan's meeting with him on January 18th.

   

Late on January 17th, SAC Grapp, Los Angeles,
telephoned the Bureau tO advise regarding a matter about which
he has just learned, which Governor Reagan may discuss during
his meeting with the Director.

He said that the California Senate Judiciary Committee
is currently holding meetings in Sacramento on a proposition that a
state -wide campus police force be created and placed under the control
Of the Governor. This would centralize law enforcement on the nearly
30 college and university campuses in the state. Grapp said this is
apparently becoming a hot political issue and Reagan may ask the
Director's views.

He advised many of the campus police departments are 

in Opposition to this proposal and prefer to remain independent. Grapp ii ?gist?
stated that although there could be certain advantages in the plan, such em
as uniformity in administration and perhaps better training, it would
seem best for the Director not to express an opinion since this is purely
a state issue.

ACKSON DOYLE. 
Special to The Star

SACRAMENTO, Calif. Gov:
Ronald Reagan says he will stay
out of- states where his name is
being entci ed in Republican pri-
maries including New Hamp-
shire, where he has become an

?unwilling? write-in. candidate.

Reagan told a press confer-
ence here yesterday that ve?
done eveiything in the world Ii
can in New Hampshire to stop"
what he labeled a ?mailin.
or write-in? campaign in his be-
half.

He said he ?certainly wouldn? t,
stick my neck out by going;
,there. 1

Any such visit to New Hamp:
shire, he said, ?would open up a;
can of peas that I think we have;

-?managed to keep the lid on. 

The leading contenders in the
New Hampshire primary March
12 are Michigan Gov. George
Romney and former Vice Presi-
vdent Richard Nixon.

Nixon? strategists fear any
strong Reagan effort would take
conservative votes away from
Nixon.



 



"Convention Group Named. - 

Reagan, just beginning his
second year in the statehouse
here, meantime announced ap-
pointnient of a 36-member com-.
.mittee composed largely of1
conservative Republicans but
with a sprinkling of moderates.
--. to help form his ?favorite
.son? delegation to the GOP Na-
tional Convention in Miami
BeachinAugust.

William French Smith, a Los
Angeles attorney and longtime
Reagan backer, was named,
chairman of the organizing com-r
mittee. . 

The panel does not includei
Senators Thomas H. Kuchel or
George Murphy, nor any other
statewide officeholder. -

Smith said both Kuchel, a
moderate who refused to en-
dorse Reagan for governor, and
Murphy, longtime Hollywood as-
sociate of Reagan? s, have said
they do not want to be on the.
BEE-member delegation' in August.

This-, French said, is because
"Kuchei will be busy seeking re-
election, and Murphy will be
busy as chairman of the Senate
Campaign Committee. Mm??

mg Financial Backers .J

The organizing committee is:
loaded with big financial back-
ers ?including oil men and m-
dustrialists who were among the
earliest "Reagan for Governor?
hackers and who worked for
Barry Goldwater in 1964.1

There are a few on the organ-

?izing committee who supported

New York _.Gov Nelson A.
Rockefeller over Goldwater in
the bitter 1964 California pri-

marv. 
All 36 members of the organiz-

ing have one thing in
common they all supporte

his nomination. Furthermore,
they all have stuck by. him dur-
ing his first year in office.
Committee chairman Smith-
said each of 86 convention delee
gates and 86 alternates will be

appointment ?to remain com-.

He indicated yesterday that
this will be the last out-of-state
foray during the 1968 legislature
session, which could run into
late summer.
Last year, Reagan spent a
good deal of time politicking
around the country?resulting in
ever-rising speculation that he
is, indeed, running for president.

But he reiterated yesterday,

him to campaign in states?
other than California where

 

he inheing pushed for the GOP

T0 FIREBOMB RESIDENCE
OF GOVERNOR RONALD REACAN,
SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA,

JULY 9, 1968

 

On July 10, 1968, Captain Paul Hannigan, Sacramento,
California, Police Department, advised that during the late
evening of July 9, 1968, Secret Service Agents Michael
Endicott and Robert Horan were sitting in their car just south
of the Governor?s residence, 1341 - 45th Street, Sacramento,
California, when they observed two Negro males, 20 to 25
years of age walking across 45th Street and then toward the
Governor's residence.

As the two Negro males approached the front of the
Governor?s residence, the Secret Service Agents observed each
of them carrying a bottle. ,At this time Secret Service Agent
Endicott notified Bouglas Duncan, a Secret Service Agent who
was near the front of the Governor's residence. ?When the two
Negro males stopped on the front lawn of the Governor's
residence, Secret Service.Agenu3Endicott and Horan got out of
their car and yelled, ?Hold.?

 

Captain Hannigan advised that the two Negro males
immediately split up and ran, one north up the middle of 45th
Street, and the other on the sidewalk north on 45th Street.

One of them ran around the corner on Street where his car,
believed to be a 1967 or 1968 yellow Chevrolet, was parked

and drove west. No license number was noted. The other
individual ran to Street and then east on Street. Secret
Service.Agent'Duncan, when he found he was not going to be able

to overtake this individual, fired one shot at him with no effect.

RE ATTEMPT TO RESIDENCE
0F GOVERNOR RONALD REAGAN,
SACRAMENTO cameraman
JULY 9, 1968

Captain Hannigan advised that when the two Negro
males were told to ?Hold,? one of them smashed a molotov
cocktail in the street and the other one threw his on the
lawn just north of the Governor's residence. Neither cocktail
ignited. Both cocktails were quart wine bottles, one with a
Franzia Vin Rose label and the other with a Gallo Burgundy
label. No fingerprints were found by the Sacramento,
California, Police Department, on the bottle that was not
smashed.

Captain Hannigan advised that Governor Reagan
and his family were at home but were not aware of the incident
when it took place. He also advised that there were two
witnesses in the vicinity who felt they might be able to
identify the individual who fled on foot. These witnesses
did View photographs at the Sacramento, California, Police
Department, but did not find an individual wholooked like the
one they observed.

.A source in the Governor?s Office advised on July 10,
1968, that the Governor was not concerned about the above
incident, indicated complete confidence in the security
arrangements being afforded him by the Secret Service and
the California State Police. The Governor also expressed this
confidence to members of the press upon his arrival at the
State Capitol Building in Sacramento, California, on the
morning of July 10, 1968.

Copies of this memorandum have been disseminated

locally to the intelligence agencies of the Army, Navy and
the Air Force.

by an individual on his delivery route on West main Street,
Charlottesville, Virginia, stating that he had just come out of
one of the Joints on West main Street and while in the restroom
saw a white male in his late twenties, 5 feet 10 inches, 170
pounds, with a white T?shirt and tight fitting blue jeans,
carrying a German luger, and when asked what he was doing with
the gun, stated he was ?going to shoot himself a Governor".
Hawkins did not obtain the name of the individual furnishing
the information or license number of the car driven by the
individual.

It should be noted that Governor Ronald Reagan of
California was scheduled to arrive in Charlottesville, Virginia,
at #:00 P.M., on July 20, 1968, to meet with Republican state
leaders and to give a speech that evening in Charlottesville,
Virginia.

The information furnished by Hawkins was furnished
at 10:30 A.M. to Joseph Stromick, United States Secret Service,
temporarily assigned at Charlottesville, Virginia for protection
of Governor Reagan. Information was also furnished to Chief of
Police James E. Adams, Charlottesville, Virginia Police Department
at 10:35 A.M. and to Sergeant R. H. Oliver, Vir inia State
