Judge Bleakley, of Westchester County, onetime Republican Candidate for Governor in New York, askedSAC Conroy to see his daughter, who was Story Editor for13g§§,Qagneu to talk about a picture that Cagney wasthin ing of doing, dealing with FBI activities: A
qC/ _ The Bureau had previously been approached through r6L aoout Cagney's desire to make a picture. whereinhe, Cagney, would play the role of the Director. The Bureau7 turned this downbecause it was inappropriate and secondly,because they had a previous commitment with 20th Century

"In time to come the recognition of the SovietUnion by the United States will be remembered as the beginningof an era which brought savagery, ignorance and hunger to anend. It will be remembered as the first step taken towardnew horizons of a world where security and culture ane meant
for the happiness of all people everywhere.
"On this occasion Hollywood wishes to add its voiceto the voice of all Americans hailing the mutual bond whichexists and which will continue to grow between our greatcountry and our great allies. In this friendship lies notonly the hope but the future of the world."
The telegram was signed by a group of screen stars
