It is noted that referenced SSC letter reguested u7
excised copies of the February 22, and June 12, 1962 conmuni-
cations from Nerz York Ihich appear to have been the 'articulated
predicateg for the cominfil cage-" The SSC letter did not
identisy captiong of thege conmunicarions;
nor
identify ay
specific "cdminfil
case. Therefore, we were unable to locate
pertinent docunents bearing these dates in our Headquorters 21Ycbe
At 2

1975, between SSC Staff

Dear Mr _ Shaheen :
843733742
5x4263166 57
I want you to know how much I appreciated the
opportunity to meet with you and your associates the other
abont the Martin Luther Jr case It was most
helpful to have the benefit of the Bureau S
knowledge
con-
cerning the background of the case and 1 can assure you
that Te will do everything possible to avoid joepardizing
any sensitive FBI sources or ongoing operations
I do want to reiterate our need for the specific
itens set forth in earlier document requests which would
presumably establish the factual basis for your conclusion
as 0f various dates in 1962 1963 and ' 1964 tnat Stanley
I Levison was 8 "secret menber of the Communist Party USA _
Of course in the event that there is n0 particular docunent
in any of those Years wherein Levison was so-identified to
the FBI, I think it would be nelpful for you to let uS know
So that we may consider our outs tanding requests in that
context Finally of course we still need unezcised copies
Of
the Februazy 22
2nd Jine
i2 1962 ccmnunicaticns from
New York which appear to neve been the articulated predicates
for the "cominfiii case
Once again_ I waic to thank you for your time and
I look forward to nearing zrom you further on this subject.

SUBJECT: STANLEY LEVISON ON Jalue
IS-C
SewSitiv€ foe* 6+7
nt(lunence origtt,e
On 4/9/64, (nY694-8* made the following observations
with regard to the CP status of STANLEY LEVISON:
LEVISON has been an important Party member for
many years (and never at any time differed with the Party with
respect to the Farty line_ His only difference with the
Party has been with respect to the fact that in his opinion
the Party was not sufficiently "militant" in defending
Negro rights . In this respect, he has been to the "left"
of the Party _ LEVISON 8 differences with the Party are merely
"tactical M He has never criticized the Party except with
respect to the Farty 1 S handling of the Negro question_ The
fact that he does not accept domination by the Party with
regard to the MARTIN LUTHER KING movement should not be
construed to mean that he has broken with the Party in 211
respects _ The Party today is a8 anxious to reestablish friendly
relations with LEVISON as it wa S in the past.
It should be noted that LEVISON never has been
officially "drummed of the Party, nor has anyone ever
criticized him for being opposed to the Perty s general
principles _ It further should be noted that according to
the CP Constitution, it would require forma1 expulsion Of
to state that he i8 officially out of the Party _
LEVISON never has said anything reflecting that
tle does not continue to be a CP member It should be noted
"hat 1t would be in the interests of the MARTIN LUTHER KING
ovement , with which he 18 a8sociated, if he would publicly
repudiateethe Party
9
which he has never done _ It should be
Zurther noted that in an effort to renew friendly relations

with LEVISON, the Farty designated BEN DAVIS to contact
LEVISON LEVISON had alway8 expressed the opinion that
BEN DAVIS wag the only CP functionary who had a sufficiently
"militant attitude I a8 regards CP activities in behalf of
the Negro movement_ The fact that DAVIS and LEVISON as
have not met should not be construed to mean that LEVISON
has refused to confer with DAVIS_ As NY 694-8* understandz
the situation
1
DAVIS ha,s been awaiting contact by LEVISON,
and LEVISON similarly has been awaiting contact by DAVIS _
Each of chese individuals 18 Sufficiently egotistical to
expect tha% the other would make the first move in an effort
to establish contact_ NY 694-S* believes tha% probably the
reason why DAVIS and LEVISON have not met is that arrangements
for their meeting were r0 be made by LEM HARRIS and that
HARRIS has not made the proper efforts to effect a meeting
between LEVISON and DAVIS .
NY 694-8* ha8 never obtained any information re-
flecting that LEVISON has changed his thinking with regard to
Marxism_ Even though his present estrangement from the Party
might be construed as reflecting he is no longer a CP member,
there 18 no reason to come to the conclusion that LEVISON is
no longer an ideological Communist_
JACK talked to LEM HARRIS yesterday who said he
contacted STAN LEVENSON by phone and wa8 given a cordial
hello which waS 8 change from the past when he was cool
LEM said he had "not seen LEVENSON , tried to call him
and Iould like to Bee him immediately to which LEVENSON said,
"I would like very much tc) see you but I don 't have the time
now _ I'm leaving and packing for a I will be glad to
M1 see you in six weeks .
LEVENSON impllec. that he was going to Ecuador but
LEM doesn t know There was no anger shown , and LEVENSON
will see LEM when he returns in six weeks.

On 6/13/63, NY 694-S* furnished the following
information to SA ATEXANDER C. BURLINSON:
On 6/12/63, IENNZ HARRIS,CPUSA Reserve Fund
functionery told NY 694-S* that in 8 recent meeting with
STANIEY IEVISON, the latter furnished him the following
information:
The IEVISONS
}
particulerly STANIEY, are still
MARTIN LUTHER KING 8 "brain trust It ~-now more than ever before.
This is S0 despite the fact that at a meeting of STANTEY
IEVISON, ROY LEVISQN, HUNTER PITTS 01DELL , MARTIN LUTHER
KING &nd Attorney General' 8 chief a88igtant" the
Attorney General 8 assistant
9
pointing to
the TEVISONS
and HUNTER PITTS 0 'DELL, stated to MARTIN LUTHER KING ,
I1 men are Party members; watch out for them ,
W} MARTIN LUTFR KING did not "bat an eyelash upon
hearing the Assistant Attorney General'8 remark, and after
the latter left the_meeting, those in the group smiled at each
other_ STANLEY IEVISON said to KING, at this time, "I
congratulate you on the way you acted regarding his warning.
You are a real Marxist-Leninist. This i8 how a true
Marrist-Leninist acts _
Everything that KING does he first discusses
with STANTEY IEVISON and he accepts LEVISON' s advice whole -
heartealy. KING 2ls0 wholeheartedly accepts the advice of
HUNTER PITTS 0 ' DELL as regards matters within the latter's
local jurisdiction.
MARTIN LUTHER KING was askea by a group of newspaper
M rejorters whether he takes orders from "the Communists
if ard &lso, whether he took "orders from STANLEY LEVISON_
KING' s response was that he took orders only from dod
By reason of the fact that the LEVISONS feel that

for civil rights for Negroes, and further , since they feel
that the as a result of this "do nothing Ii attitude ,
has lost prestige , they will no longer permit the_Party
to d.ominate or control their activities in the MARTIN LUTHER
KING mov ement They are severing themgelves_financially
and in a disciplinary way , from the Party_ The LEVISONS
and 0'DELL are still Party members,( but_ do'not desire to be
openly "linked up " with the Party- Although are
enchanted' with the: Partyz they are not quitting the Party
With respect to the MARTTN LUTHER KING movement they will
act on their OWiQ initiative , and will not accept instructions
from the Party.
IEM HARRLS then advised that the Perty: however,
still would like to control the MARTIN LUTHR KING movement
Ii BEN DAVI3 has been assigned to be "liaison or intermediary"
with the IEVISONS and HUNTER PITTS 01DELL _ whether or not
the IEVISONS and O DELL will maintain lialson regarding
matters concerning the MARTIN LUTHER KING movement is a
matter for them to decide _ In view of IEVISON 18 statement
with respect to advising MARTIN LUTHR KING independently
of Party instructions , it would seem that DAVIS may not have
any success in maintaining liaigon with the IEVISONS and
HUNTER PITTS 0'DELL. The IEVTSONS and 0'DELL are aware of
the fact that BEN DAVIS has been given this assignment
by the Party.
MARTIN LUTHER KING, according to IEM HARRIS is
referred to by such top Part;y functionaries a8 GUS
HAEL,
BEN DAVIS JIM JACKSON and OLAUDE LIGHTFOOT a8 a II true
genuine Marxist-Leninist from the top of his head to the tips
M of his toe8 _ In the Party: the report i8 that MARTIN LUTHER
KING is following a Marxist-Leninist line_
NY 694-8* advised that he asked IEM HARRIS whether
or not , to the latter 8 krnolledge, MARTIN LUTHR KING was
a member of the CPUSA, IEM HARRIS replied that he did not
know .

When Dr MARTIN LUTHER KING was invited to addrese
the ARL-CIO convention some time ag0 , KING
3
on IEVISON ' s ad-
vice, first obtained approval to do 80 from As
PHILLIP RANDOLPH ,
negro labor leader, who , if he had not been consulted in the
matter, might have felt that KING '8 making a speech at the
aforesaid convention wa8 a blow to RANDOLPH 8 prestige _
KING delivered a
remarkably effective speech at the
AFL-CIO convention, and, 28 & result, received invitations
from numerous labor leaders, including "MC DONALD of Steel, I1
ro address their respective unions As the ouestanding
"champion of negro rights in the country_
9
KING is a powerful
political influence, recognized a8 such by the higher echelons
of the Democratic Party _ He has acces8 to Attorney General
ROBERT KENNEDY and President KENNEDY , who, politically_ need
KING particularly in the South, where in cities like Atlanta
and New Orleans the negro vote now constitutes the balance of
power, and where KING controls the negro vote .
JANES FOFFA_ Teamsters Union 1f boss" appreciates
the political power of KING , particularly the fact that KING
can influence the 90,000 negro members of the Teamsters
Union KOFFA invited KING to address the Teamsters Union,
end KING accepted the invitation Knowing that KING 1s being
deferred to by Attorney General KENNEDY_
3
and President; KENNEDY ,
HOFFA requested KING to contact the Attorney General in an
effort to influenc e the latter "to lay off" HOFFA KING was
inclined to do as HOFFA requested, but IEVISON convirced him
that to do 8o would be politically unwise, inexpediert , and
likely to be a "boomerang, MI since the Attorney General would
never accede to such a request, particularly in the ea8e of
HOFFA _
LEVISON had to steer KING away from another politi-
cally hazardous Situation_ Some months ago OTTO PRE VINGER;
Hollywood movie director_
9
entered into negotiations 'with
a
KING representative for KING to play a part in 6 picture
which PREMLNGER would direct Although PREMINGER 8 offer was
M II tempting, 8ince it meant easy money" for KING 8
organization, LEVISON realized that for KING to accept the
offer would lower the latters prestige After convincing
KING of this fact_ LEVISON personally telephoned to PREMINGER ,
telling him that deal was off

it (Marxism), believes in it, and agrees with it, but because
of his being a minister of 1eligion, does not dare to espouse

ness and the distinctions and relationships between the
inteiligence informant
program and the Bureau S criminal
informant activity; 2) the criteria that determine when
an informant may be used in an organization or group; and
3) the program S command and control system, including the
limits that are placed
on the activities of informants
and the type of information an informant or source is per -
mitted to report to his handling agent and the Bureau
In addition the memorandum would discuss_possible
islation in the informant area such as the imposition
of a warrant requirement or additional administrative re-
view_ To permit the Select Comittee members to

members of the Senate Select Committee on 11/11/75, advised that
he had briefed Ramsey Clark regarding the Counterintelligence
Program and when asked whether he had written & memorandum
regarding that briefing advised that he could not specifically recall_
8
whether a memorandum was prepared. During the interview by
Committee staff members, advised Mr. DeLoach that they hal
asked for such documentation from the Bureau, but a memorandum

Memorandum to Mr . W , R. Wanna 11
Re: U, S, Senate Select Committee
on Intelligence Activities (SSC)
2 _ Counter-subversion
In this ca tegory Mr. Elliff indicated a particular
interest in foreign influence in domestic groups and the
a ssessment of danger /risk in investigations undertaken to
detect such influence He brought up the disclosures of
surveillances by CIA of Americans abroad at the request of
the FBI. He a lso indica ted an interest in borderline ca Ses,
such as those in which domestic counter-Subversion
investigations develop a CI aspect, and waS particularly
interested in the policies and coordinating mechanisms
affecting such instances.
3 , Positive_intelligence_collection
In this ca tegory Mr Elliff was interested in
the responsibility for collection of positive intelligence
within the United States and the apparent gap which existed
in this field: He was also interested in situa tions under
which the FBI might target friendly foreign intelligence
services in the United States for CI attentiona
Considerable discussion was held during the
conference during which INTD representa tives set forth the
FBI S position and experience in the many areas noted;
They are being Set forth here to illustrate the probable
scope and na ture of the executive session which is being
planned: Further discussions will be held with the SSC
staff to clarify these matters and a firmer agenda for the
proposed 11/14/75 hearing will be developed,
With respect to the proposed plan- to include
representatives of CIA and the military intelligence services
a long with the FBI in the proposed session of 2 and one
half hours, it waS pointed out to Mr Elliff that this would
not appear to be a very productive procedure_
0
The CI
perspectives and responsibilities Of CIA and the military
services are much more narrow and genera in a comp letely
different context than the CI perspectives and responsibilities
of the FBI , These differences, particularly in the Short

"On the morning of September 4, 1969 ,
the Metropolitan Police Department was advised
by the Washington National Airport Police that
some silverware had been found near one of the
entrances to the terminal at the Washington
National Airport. The silverware was recovered
by the Metropolitan Police Department and
processed for latent fingerprints without
success and the items were returned to Mrs.
Kraft upon her identification of the silverware.
No suspects were developed by either the FBI
or the Metropolitan Police Department in the
investigation 0f the matter T
Mr Kraft does not recall having spoken to the FBI about the
burglary _ Documents provided more recently to Mr Kraft pursuant
to the August 5, 1975, agreement do not shed any light on this
question.
The incident is curious in that the only reference to it comes
in the memorandum of 18, 1973, discussing
a pr ess report about
the activities of John D_ Erlichman. Could you have someone look
into this matter for me? The obvious questions are: What other
documents in FBI files say about the September 3, 1969, burglary?
What files of the Bureau or its Washington field office indicate
about how the conversation about the burglary took place?

WILLIAM C , SULLIVAN
FROM CHICAGO (1o0-44963)
SUBJECT: DEMCON
As the Bureau is aware, I am gravely concerned ovej
the potential for serious violence occurring in Chicago during
the period of the Democratic Convention, which comences
August 1968 and the days immediately preceding this
convention _ Had the convention occurred Within 30 days after
the President made his announcement that he was not going to
run for reelection and after the Viet Nam peace talks started
in Paris, I feel that we might not have had serious violence
a5 these two occurrences took much oi the steam out 0f many of
the organizations comprising ihe "iew Left" Tileir Gireclion
at that tire was primarily against President JCTNSON and
against Viet Nam and much of the steam went out of their
programs following these two announcements .
It is our observation, however, that these "New Left"
organizations have now had time to redirect their programs
and are now concentrating primarily on demonstrations and
activities against Vice President HUMPIREY characterized
by them as the "Dump Humphrey Campaign" The fact that tne
war still continues in Viet Nam
)
has again given emphasis
to the organizations which exist on the basic theme 0f anti-
Viet Nam I am thinking particularly of such organizations
as the National Mobilization Committee to Cnd the Iar in Viet
Nam , Students for Democratic Society , Student Hobilization
Committee to End the War in Viet Nam and the Youth International
Party (Yippies)

For the Bureau 5 information , Sgt JOSEPH GRUBISIC ,
Intelligence Section, Chicago PD, advised previously that he
had learned from DAVID STAHL of the Mayor S Office Chicago ,
that they had received a telephone ca 1l, a couple of days ag0 ,
from one WES POMEROY of the U.S . Attorney General's Office,
to the effect that the Attorney Genera l wanted the Chicago
city officials to give every consideration to the granting
of the permits requested by the Yippies
Sgt . GRUBISIC was unable to comment on the feeling
of the city administration to this request but was of the
opinion that such permits would not be granted as requested ,
Sgt GRUBISIC based his opinion on the fact that four repre-
sentatives of the Yippies from New York City, had gone to
the office of the Deputy Superintendent of the Chicago PD and
had requested immunity from arrest for a11 Yippies auring the
convention for crimes around the possession of narcotics The
Yippies stated that any arrest would cause the Yippie community
to cause large sca le riots and the blame of any riots resulting
from such arrests would fall on the Chicago PD_
These representatives of the Yippies were advised
in no uncertain terms that the laws of the City of Ch icago
would be strictly enforced fairly on a 11 persons and that no
one would be granted any immunity during this period _
The Bureau S attntion is invited to the August 9 ,
1968 , issue of the "Daily World_ t daily publication of tbe
Communist Party, USA (CP) wherein an article appeared on page
one captioned "Ra llies
Niil Ring
Demo Convention" written by
CARYL /DAVIAU current memberi CP of Illinois, in which the
reporter indicates that the INa tiona1 Mobilization Committee
to Edd the War in Vietnam
}
which is working around the clock to
mobihize demonstrations agafnst the convention,has petitioned
the Justice Department to investigate the Chicago Police to
determine if there is any conspiracy to deprive "us M of our
full civil liberties
Chicago will continue to follow these matters
closely and imme diately advise the Bureau , and continue to
disseminate a 11 information of intelligence collected io
interested agencies_
No recommendation is being made nor is Chicago
involving itself in any plans affecting the issuance of the
abovementioned park permit

As the Bureau is aware, Chicago is in receipt of
information from confidential scarces indicating &
potential
for demonstration arising out of the "New Left" calling for
direct confrontation with the Chicago Police Department as 2
diversionary tactic for a "crash-in" at the convention site
Sources have also reported independent action 01 the part of
individuals to cause some form of "sabotage" activity inside
the convention itself Information received from confidential
informants in other divisions indicates attempts on the part
of dissident young people not organizationally affiliated with
the "New Left" to hire 50 buses ot of New York to bring
demonstrators to Chicago
and a caravan of militant Latin
Emericans to come from the Miami, Florida area to Chicago for
the specific purpose of disrupting the Democratic National
Convention _
The Chicago area activists in the Youth International
Party are currently planning a "Festival of Lights" in one of
the parks on Chicago S lakefront during the period of the
Democraiic National Convention_ This Festival of Lights"
characterized by Chicago area Yippie leadership 25 being peaceful
to show America thut there is an alternative to the "festival
of death" or the Democratic National Convention However
sources report that there are elements within the Youth Inter-
national Party which are calling for direct confrontation with
the Chicago Police Department during the "Festival of Lights"
There is a very definite indication that more and
more plans are being made by" these groups to ceuse violence and
trouble and undoubtedly this will increase even more 2s we
approach the time f the convention I strongly feel that we
must use every possible means at our command to insure that
the Director, the President of the United States and other. pertinent
officials are furnished every possible piece of. intelligence
information which we can gather from any source_
I 2m specifically asking for the services of two
Special Agents who proved during their assignment in Chicago that
they are expecially well qualified to handle informants and make
contacts in the "New Left" area _ They proved during their
assignments in Chicago that they have the knowhow the interest ,
thc dedication and the personality to be highly successful in

this area I would like to utilize them specifically to work
cases in the "New Left" area , maxe contacts and would also
request authority where necessary to utilize them in under-
cover work under my personal supervision and guidance They
would be specifically assigned fulltime to solicit information
from the leacership of the "New Left" concerning their plans
for demonstrations confrontations and disruptions of the
Democratic Convention and matters relating thereto.

judgment and 1 am convinced that their assignments , a5 recommended
above, would prove to be most beneficial in carrying out our
responsibilities in connection with the Democratic Convention _

Memorandum to Mr BeZmont
RE : EUGENE THOMAS ET AL
OBSERVATIONS OF GENERAL INVESTIGATIVE DIVISION
The Bureau is currently paying Gary Thomas Rowe
816.00 per day subsistenoa 1n licu of expenses _ This figure
was initially decided upon after discussion with the Departlent ,
and with the Department S approval , as it was recognized that
the informant had to be removed from the Birningham area for
his protection and safety. The Departnent pointed Out that
it would not be desirable to make any lump sum or large
payment .to the informant So long a5 he might be called upon
to testify,
aS any such large payments might be construed
in court 43 2 payment for his testimory _
}
whereas payment
of his living expenses can readily be' justified 25 a necessity .
In tne trial of subject Collie_Lerey_Wilkins which
began 5,3-65 and resulted in 2 hung Jury
9
the Bureau was called
upon to produce a record of payments to the informant In a
future trial it i5 reasonable to expect that we will again be
called upon to produce such a record_ The paynent of Rowe
debts a + this time amounting to over two thousand dollars
would appear in this record of payments to Rowe
3
and we
certainly could not agree to pay such 8 large amount at this
time Without the Department S approval _
Ptt
Witb regard to the debts themselves , it would not
appear fron information furnished by Birmingham that they a1e
all due and payable immediately , _ as the larger debts to the
two banks would probably be payable in monthly installments _
Te could with Department S approval agree to payment of
his Smalier
debts
and monthly instalinents
on these larger
debts a5 they come due ,
RECOHHENDATION
In view of the above , ft is recommended that
Birmingham be instructed to submit a detailed accounting of
Rowe S debts showing their basis
}
when they were contracted,
due dates and a full breakdown of any installment contracts
showing detailed schedule ot payments _ Upon reccipt of this
information, the matter will be discussed with the Department
and their viows as to whether or not payment of these debts
at this time would be judicious, will be obtained _ Airtel
attached.

RE:. TESTTMONY BY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL BEFORE THE
SENATE 'SELECT 'COMMITTEE ON INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES
(3)'. A history "of Congressional oversight 'of the' Bureau
Mr . Marvin asked that we
identify those Subcommittees 'of Congress
which have exercised some oversight responsibilities 'over the
Bureau In particular he asked that we review appropriations
testimony going back o 1955 to: determine whether we discussed
topics which are presently Of concern to the 'Select Committees_
This will be' very useful in demonstrating Congressional aware-
ness "Of these matters: He also asked that we furnish `a statement
Of the Director S: position concerning Congressional 'oversight
which he has: previously expressed in speeches or tes itimony
before 'Congress.
(4) A list Of major investigative techniques 'employed
by the Bureau, specifying in each case whether we' seek Depart-
mental approval_ The more obvious "examples are electronic
surveillance use '0f recorders pen registers , informants;
and photographic surveillances -
.(5) A list 0f any formal 'Or informal proposals which have
been made concerning "organizational changes 'Of the: FBI _ Examples
are the `creation of an Inspector General Office in the' Depart-
ment or elsewhere having review authority over the FBI , transfer
Of counterintelligence functions to: another agency Or the creation
0f a separate Division within the' Bureau for that function trans-
fer Of drug enforcement responsibilities to the Bureau _
1
and the
proposed statutory limitation On the term of the office for the
Director
It should be' noted that several position papers concern-
ing such topics were prepared at the' request of former Acting
Director L_ Patrick 'Gray which might pe useful in responding to
this request.
Although no date has been set for the' Attorney General's
testimony
1
it is expected that he will testify 'after Mr Kelley s
appearance On 12/9/75, In view 'Of the 'linited time available
1
Mr Marvin asked that we' expedite the preparation 'Of these

Senate Select Committee advised at 9:15 a.m on 12/3/75 that
the following is a statement to be read by Senator Frank Church
of that 'Committee on 1273775 _
Attorney General Kennedy authorized wiretaps in
1962 on New York Times reporter Hanson Baldwin and his
secretary and that lasted for about one month In addition
to the wiretap on New York Times reporter Hanson Baldwin in
1962 the Committee has received materials from the FBI re-
flecting authorization by Attorney General Kennedy Of a
wiretap on a reporter for Newsweek Magazine in 1961 during
the investigation of another leak of classified information
Further materials reflected authorization by Attorney General
Nicholas Katzenbach for a wiretap on the editor Of an anti-
Communist newsletter in 1965 also during the investigation
0f a leak Of classified information The Committee has received
materials from the FBI reflecting authorization by Attorney
General Robert F Kennedy of wiretaps on at least six American
citizens including three Executive Branch officials a Con-
gressional Staff Member and two registered lobbying agents
for foreign interests The materials also reflect that these
wiretaps relate to an investigation Of agents by foreign in-
terests to influence United States economic policies
Elliff was advised by SA Paul V . Daly of this Division
that an impression would be created by the aforementioned statement
that this Bureau may have conducted an electronic surveillance on
Capitol Hill and that this 0f course, was inaccurate The elec-
tronic surveillance concerning the Congressional Staff Member was
not located on Congressional property Elliff agreed with this
observation and indicated that he would check the material to
insure the electronic surveillance in question Was not on Con-
gressional property and as agreed
