On September 17, 1968, LILBURN BOGGS, Special Agent in Charge, United btates Secret Service, Chicago, Illinois, was interviewed concerning security measures considered necessary by Secret Service during the Democratic National Convention DEC! in Chicago, de- Illinois, in August, lush, and furnished the following information;

. 1 The U.$- Secret Service had the duty under the 1.4 law to protect a number or candidates for nomination by the Democratic Party for the office of President or the United States during the DNC. In pursuance-oi th;o ~ - duty Secret Service cooperated with the National Guard, '-_I the Chicago Police Department and other law enforcement agencies to arrange the necessary security, ecret éervice ,- had seen a number of reports of such serious nature CUuCOPD 1 ing the possibility of harm to candidates for the nomination .- that no doubt whatsoever existed that extensive security precautions were necessary.

Beginning on , 1968, the U.S, Stcret Service "secured" the Amphithe-92..re and the iuunoiate area, I:-' By this, he said he meant that a "bomb sweep" was COnouLt0d and all appropriate searches made and thereafter, the Amphitheatre was planed under a. security gu5.|1'o,,

Security precautions were not only hncesanry at the Amphitheatre and its immediate vicinity hut were neces- s= - sary else-here in the city for the purpose u1' st-cur1|.;~; ingress and egress for candidates for nomination to ahu I11--' from the Amphitheatre ahJ further, to secure their temporary residences in downtown Chicago hotels.

JeopardSecret I further recommended that the City of Chicago should not'* A waive any law, regulation or inJnnctiqn currently in force I to control marches and demonstrations in the city with one exception which concerned whether a demonstration should be * allowed to divide and march at the sane time in two or more l groups instead of one. Such division of demonstrators . crowds would not be considered obyectionable by Secret Service. 1

With specific reference to the march led by GREGORY on Auglst 29, 1968, Grant Park to 18th and Iichigan Avenue where the march was halted by police and the Illinois National Guard, hr. HOGGS said that those authorities acted with the full support by the Secret Service in halting the march at that point. To have allowed that larch, which , obviously contained people hostile to Vice President HUBERT H, HUMPHREY who had the night before been noainated for Fresident by the Uenocratic Farty, would have been a bfiib of necessary security precautions. Ir. BOGG5 said concerning the march led by GREGORY that he himself had heard GREGORY speak in Grant Park on August 29, 1968, prior to the bc;.;innin,; 01' ,thc-march, He heard GREGUIIY say that he Ill going to his home and was inviting the crowd of demonstrators to accompany him. he also heard GREGORY say that when they got to GR£G0Y's house,those in the crowd who wanted to i "could go west" to use GR£G0hY'swords. Hr. BOGGS said that west iron GREGORYs house would obviously have been in I the direction of the Amphitheatre where the final session Y or the DNC was in progross. Such a march to GREGORY's residence or to an area close to the Amphitheatre by the demonstrators could not he allowed for security reasons. The Secret Service was concerned not only with the necessity - J of protecting the Amphitheatre itself from possibly hostile demonstrators but also was concerned that if the march was ¬ admitted near the Amphitheatre, there would be a number 0 of possibly hostile demonstrators in a position to stop the Secret Service wotorcade, in which the Vice President would be traveling. Ir. BOGGS said that even a Iew' persons could block a wotqrclde which when halted is, of course, lore vulnerable to attack by anyone wanting to do so. t .-._ 3 - Iith reference to security arrangements at _ .» , Ajgrred,' d Hilton frontinHotel on theof August 28,hotel and 1968, other whendayson dewonstrlt during, _ ,':_» I. - , lir. iil'JGGSthat said everal candidates ior 5iiilii1_ a '-{the DemocraticParty were staying atthe ConradIiiltli "" Hotel during the DEC.

Additional help was ordered in fros other divisions consisting of 16 sen who started 12-hour shifts on August 25. Routine patrels endpdectia: were maintained until August za; at which um, in View of tn. rally held 55 Shell in Grant Park and the subsequent descnstration, scat of our u personnel were assipied between Randolph Street and 18th Street. k As a result of the denonstrations on this date, it was neces- » sary to occupy our radio Channel No. l frequency exclusively for use of this departsent due to the nuserous incidents. This re- 92 sulted in a slow down of switching operations as the crews who E normally use this channel were required to handle by hand sig- a nals and telephme. It was also necessary to block our suburban § bridge at 12th Street which leads frw the west side at Michigan Avenue of our right of way to the east side at Outer Drive oppo- site the bend shell in Grant Park. This was necessary as the bridge was not built to withstand the traffic which would have used this facility, as the City authorities bad blocked their bridge Just north of ours and were directing all the public to cross our tracks at Balboa Drive to control the sob. Due to this necessary preceutim, this resulted in an inconvenience * to our passengers as we were not able to dsi:-erI1ne'_"'" the psssmge" rs from those Just desiring access to .the bridge. This precaution was necessary from 2 p.e. until ll p.s. that night. '- 2 2: -edaer139, 1968 |e . D oi At I230 pm. a beingsick as 1

NOTE: ¥?§ An article appearing in the Village Voice 9-19 -68, by Nat Hentoff contains an allegation that Agents interviewed a "yippie" concerning the &*~¢ disorders at the Democratic National Convention and during the interview, the yippie attempted to furnish information concerning a civil rights viola- tion including the badge number ef a riettng "cop. " The yippie alleged the Agents were not interested in this information and did not even write the F§?k Q_ -I .+ ' badge number down. Hentoff was interviewed and identified the yippie as --sf I . Hoffman. The facts alleged by Hoffman are false and he has in the past til - '- made other unfounded allegations. The information concerning this |.~..-" ' incident should be incorporated into an LHM for the information of the Department and affidavits should be obtained so that we willhave a record of this matter in the event it should come up again.
