Known to the Director as "Dear Joe, he was U. S. Ambassador to Great Britain at the time World War 11 broke out. hi June, 19 39, H -4- the "Foreign Observer" quoted remarks from a London publication which stated that the British were bewildered as to why Ambassador Kennedy was allowed to remain in his post considering his record as an appeaser and apologist for Chamberlain. In 1957, the Director sent autographed copies of "The FBI Story" to Joseph Kennedy, John Kennedy and Robert Kennedy. In 19 58, the Director sent autographed copies oi "Masters of Deceit" to these three prominent members oi the Kennedy family. In January, 1953, SA David J.

Mr. Holloman telephoned Senator Kennedy s Oiiice on January 12, 1953, and spoke with Ted Reardon, Kennedy's Administrative Assistant whom Holloman had known for some time. Holloman mentioned the matter of Kennedy's visitingthe Bureau, and Reardon said that as soon as things quieted down on the Hill, he and Kennedy would come over for a tour. 94-37374-2! - _ In September, 1953, SAWilliam H. Carpenter Resident Agent at Hyannis, Massachusetts, now in GS-13! attended the weddingof Senator Kennedy and the wedding reception. SA Carpenter is well-known to the Kennedy family.

In October, 1953, SAC James Kelly then at Boston, currently at Baltimore! met Senator Kennedy at Joseph Kennedy'shome. According to SAC Kelly, the Senator said he felt the FBI to be the only real Government agency worthy of its salt and expressed admiration br the Director's accom- plishments. He said that upon returning to Washington in January, 1954, he would enjoy meeting the Director at the Bureau. The Director wrote Senator Kennedy about the remarks he made to SAC Kelly and told him to Visit the Bureau any time it was convenient. 94-37374-5! -3_ //er I In the Fall oi 1954, SenatorKennedy underwenta painful operation to correct the crippling effects of the PT boat crash he had been involved in during World War II. In November, 1954, the Director wrote both Joseph Kennedy and Senator Kennedy to wish the Senator speedy and complete recovery. 94-37374-7!

The Director also has received this Medal, presented by the Catholic University Alumni Association.! 94- 37374-9! In November, 1%59-, the Director wrote John Kennedy to congratulate him upon his re-election to the Senate ,andSenator Kennedy sent the Director a friendly reply stating "ill or my office can be of any help to you, do not hesitate to call upon me. " 94-37374-14! with regard to Senator Kennedy's staiimembers, it is noted that at the suggestion of Joseph Kennedy, the Director sent a copy of "Commu- nist Illusion and Democratic Reality" to the Senator'sLegislative Assistant, Theodore Sorensen, in November, 19159. 94-37374-20! in July, I959, Uniform Crime Reports material and 'i other data containing crime statistics were sent Pierre Salinger, Assistant Chiei Investigator for the McClellan Labor-Management!

Kenneth O'Donnell who managed Kennedy's Senatoriallast campaign, was Administrative Assistant of the McClellan Committee on labor-management racketeering, and is very close to Senator Kennedy and his brother Robert Kennedy! is well~k_nownto Inspector Courtney Evans of the Investigative Division. In March, 1959, O'Donnellspoke to Inspector Evans regarding Senator Kennedy'ssuspicion that there might be a tap on one oi his telephones. O Donnellinquired whether it would be possible tor the FBI to check Kennedy's phones;however, within a matter oi minutes, he again called Inspector Evans to request that the Bureau forget the entire matter since he, O'Donnell,could make arrangements to handle the matter himself. Additionally, in March, 1959, O'Donnelldiscussed withInspector 1 Evans the publicity being given remarhs made by Robert Kennedy concerning alleged offers of political support for Senator John Kennedy if Robert Kennedy would "go easy" on certain witnesses before the McClellan Committee. O'Donnell advisedthat Robert Kermedy stated the press had unduly enlarged on his remarks, and O'Donnellsaid he did not believe the Kennedys have the facts necessary to back up Robert Kennedy's reportedstatements. _ Kenneth O'Donnellalso advised Inspector Evans in March, 19 59, that he % been informed that Cardinal Cashing was extremely displeased at the reaction of some Catholic Church publications to statements made by Senator Kennedy regarding the separation of church and state. O'Donnell said that Senator Kennedy'sposition that no public tax money should be used for parochial schools was the position of the Church and that Cardinal Cushing felt the critical remarks of the Church publications regarding Kennedy s statements were unwarranted. 94 37374-1'7!

" 7-301566-83! ROBERT KENNEDY: ADVOCATE OF FEDERAL CRILIE COMLIISSION: Robert Kennedy, the Senator's34-year-old brother, has seen the Director on a number of occasions in recent years. In September, 19 59, he called upon the Director to advise that he was resigning as Chief Counsel of the McClellan Committee and to express appreciation for the excellent cooperation which the Bureau had extended him. He specifically mentioned the help oi Inspector Courtney Evans. The Director addresses him as Dear Bob. '77-51387-36! Early this year, Robert Kennedy publisheda book, "The Enemy Within," dealing with graft, corruption and criininal in uences in the labor movement--particularly James Hoiia s Teamsters Union. In this book, Kennedy makes special mention of the advice and assistance given him by the Director. -5- IjI/ 92 I 1 Although he has displayed a very friendly attitude toward the Bureau, Robert Kennedy has been an outspoken advocate oi the establishment oi a Federal Crime Commission. Fe has stated, in my opinion our rst and most urgent need is tor a national crime commission. This commis- sion would serve as a central intelligence agency, a clearinghouse to which each oi the seventy-odd Federal agencies anti the more than ten thousand local law enforcement agencies throughout the country would constantly teed Ltiormation on the leading gangsters. The commission would pool and correlate all its information on underworld figures and disseminate it to the proper authorities." 2-105993-A-Washington Post 6-15-69!

With regard to Senator Kennedy's religion, improperly labeled anti-Catholic literature was distributed by a nonexistent organization called the "Protestant Information Center. " E OlLlTI C §§*Y1*E,IWS: E '4 . 1n a syndicated column datelined Washington, D. C. , 1'-14-57, Fulton Lewis, Jr. , described Kennedy as "conscientious and sincere" in his Senate duties and stated , "Kennedy tempers his political liberalism with enough realistic conservatism that the Walter Reuther-Americans for Democratic Action leftists mistrust his independence. That was the real reason they threw the No. 2 Vice Presidential! nomination to Kefauver in Chicago at the Democratic National Convention! last August. Fulton Lewis called attention to the fact that Kennedy's and Richard N'ixon s records are very similar in that ! both served in the Navy in World War II; ! both were elected to the House oi Representatives M1946; and both graduated to the Senate--Nixon in 19 50 and Kennedy in 1952. The 6-30-59 issue of "The Washington Post and Times-Herald contained an article re ecting that Senator Kennedy urged "swift repeal of the loyalty oath requirement oi the National Defense Education Act." This Act required students getting a Federal scholarship loan to sign a loyalty oath. 94-37374-A! -5- //'7' C 4' -11-59 issue oi "Human Events" made reference to tb l92: n "ll l 1-92sl_ ' _|:| $13-HI In nh ll ll 0 kn w='IIn l¬¥92!§ 4' nu-r-n Q11 hill" III}-I m 'I'l-l¢l92J-ll hi rv h II'92¢IliD9292JI Q. an-:1 i nr n wan nriv llil vl had RIJEI-92l92v92-Inlannrl before the Senate. "Human Events" stated that Kennedy claimed the bill would "virtually put Jam es!

Senator 'al.lace stated that tar from ;ai%-lg Hofia oat of business, the Kennedy bill "would fall far short of correcting the evils brought out by the McClellan committee. I______llq_ IA nI__l _1__Ia_ _1.l___ I92 __..L__i'_.._ .!__ in connection with civu 1'1gi'1 £B matters, senator nennecy has been particularly interested in Federal legislation to curb bombings of religious and educational institutions.

With regard to subversive matters, it is interesting to note that in March, 1960, Governor Wesley Powell oi New Hampshire a staunch Ni:-;on supporter! accused Senator Kennedy of "softness toward communism." Kennedy called upon the Vice President to repudiate Powell's accusation, ~._.. and Nixon's press representative issued a statement in Washington saying - the Vice President has known and worked with Senator Kennedy since they served together on the House Labor Committee in 1947. While they have differences on some issues, they have always been in complete agreement in their unalterable opposition to communism at home and abroad." In his column oi 4-8-60, Drew Pearson dwelled upon Kennedy's growth in politics and said the Senator had been "pushed forward both as a boy and as A public servant by an aggressive, wealthy taller who h. -'-92_d become an economic royalist." Pe arson stated that "when the frequently criticized Americans for Democratic Action gave Kennedy a high liberal rating, he squirmed over being put in the same category as Senators Douglas, Morse nrurl i -I."-N.-J -nu fl 921f -unn n Qm1+l-me-n I-92nnv::r92'92r92nv92 .5.-In-.-n-4.111.-.-..-I .-... mi-.

Pearson continued, "Kennedy. . . has grown further and further away from the political influence of his father, further away from the conservative wing of the Catholic Church. There was a time when hie fafhnr and came: nlnfnnnfn nf his: r92|'92n'r-P11ih linnrn I annnrlv nn nun nf the most vital questions of the decade--McCarthyism--and his straddle on that issue still hurts him. McCarthy got his strongest support from Boston. McCarthy also got heavy nancial support from Jack's father. And at one conference at the Kennedy home on Cape Cod, the elder Kennedy, Cardinal Spellman, and McCarthy mapped the latter s strategy. So young Jack, caught between his father and the Boston Irish, ducked. This evasion which has been highlighted by Mrs. Roosevelt, one of the most powerful persons in the Democratic Party, @ left lgting scars." 9 4-37374-A! NHSCELLANEOUS: As you are aware, allegations of immoral activities on Senator Kennedy'spart have been reported to the FBI over the years. These allegations are not being treated in detail in this memorandum. They include, however, data reflecting that lennedy carried on an illicitprobably relationshipJanuary, in with another60! 19 Kennedy man's wasduring wife"ciogiaromiseci" World Warwith ll; woman thata in Las Vegas; and.that Kennedy and Frank S ra have in the recent past been involved in parties in Palm Springs, Las Vegas and New York City. Regarding the Kennedy-Sinatra information, "Confidential" magazine is said to have affidavits from two mulatto prostitutes in New York. 2-4296-26-606; 94-37374-18, 23! Allegations also have been received concerning hoodlum connections of Senator Kennedy. Again, in the interest of brevity, no effort is being made to list these allegations in full detail--much of the information being unsubstantiated. In March, 1960, for example, it wasin-law reported thatPeteractor Frank Sinatra Lawfo d!and has purposely Sinatrathat cultivated assist would Kennedy'sKennedy's in brother- campaign so that Joe Fisc etti and other notorious hoodlums could have an entre to the Senator. 94-37374-23! Regarding Kennedy s book, "Pro les in Courage," George SokolskyNew York toadvised the effectL. B. Nichols thatArthur in Ma Krgék1957,actually of a rumor circulating wrotethe book. According in to Sokoisky, a group of New York people were attempting to verify whether Krock did, in fact, write the book--and if Krock did, they were going to charge fraud in connection with the awarding of a Pulitzer Prize to Kennedy. £34-3737+ 11! -8- //E! v During the Fall of 1958, an advertisement reportedly appeared in a Grand Rapids, Michigan, newspaper stating that Senator Kennedy would speak at a political dinner honoring the local Democratic candidate for Congress. The advertisement stated that the Senator's address would be carried over six radio stations and would be sponsored by a local automobile dealer. Regarding this advertisement, the Civil Rights Division oi the Department requested the liureau conduct a full investigation in the Election Laws category to determine ii the Grand Rapids auto dealer had violated the Federal law. Regarding this matter, Mr. Rosen noted, "Believe we should alert Kennedy." The Director and Mr. Toison agreed. Accormngly, Resimnt Agent William Carpenter alerted Senator Kennedy concerning our Electbn Law investiga- tion in Michigan. The Senator was most pleased at being informed and greatly appreciated the Director'sthoughtfulnessi 9 4-37374!
