At a meeting on January 25, 1949, of the Hollywood Motion Picture
Film Council, Dore Schary of Metro-GoldIynMyer Studios stated that Frank
Fey, stage actor, had attacked Communism in the Motion Picture Industry at
a "recent" public meeting in Boston at which time Fay had named actors Gene
Kelly and Frank Sinatra as being Communists or Comunist fellow travelers.
Schary attempted to discredit Fey's reliability and took the position that
such comments were hurting the industry and urged the Council to come to the
defense of Kelly and Sinatra. Others present at the meeting took issue with
Schary's proposal on the basis that everyone knew that Hollywood was badly
infiltrated and it did not make an difference whether certain persons were
actual members of the Communist Party or not-one was just as dangerous as
the other and should be cleaned out of the industry.

Local 1421, Screen Set Designers, Illustrators, an" De@nrators»AFL and
the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Hans Employees Union-AFL
over which union should represent the set decorators. A War Labor Board
appointed an arbitrator who handed down a directive to the studio heads
telling them to recognize Sorrell's union, Local 1421, supra, but the
studio heads appealed the arbitrator's decision and asked for an NLRB
election which took place on May 24, 1945. However, all of the votes
cast in this election were challenged and, accordingly, NLRB withheld
counting the ballots pending the decision on which of them should be
declared void. The NLRB subsequently determined that Local 1421 had won
the right to represent the set decorators in the Motion Picture Industry.
This strike resulted in considerable publicity at the time. On the
morning of Gotober 10, 19n5, over 300 pickets in front of Earner Brothers
Studio were arrested. Sorrell ordered the pickets not to resist arrest
but called upon them to return to the studio on October 11, 1945.

The Fischetti brothers are well-known underworld characters

Sinatra's connection wind them, if it is true, as reported above, that he
is a nephew of Ralph Capone, ne brother of the late Al Capone.
Joseph Fischetti, born in Hay, 1910, Brooklyn, New York, is

Rocco and Charles, and is known to have contacts throughout the country
among the underworld, as well as with individuals in the entertainment

to the American way of life. The organization is known to have cooperated
with the State Department and the Department of Justice in 1945 in con-

A hrge aggregationof people are puzzled about something, which has
been recently called to the pub1ic's attention through an article
in the August edition of the "American Mercury" magazine. This article
pertains to gangsters in the night clubs and other media of entertain-
ment'and it specifically mentions Frank Sinatra as having aided gang-
sters and narcotic traders. .It also mentions that you T~men were
present in Havana when Sinatra made the plane trip with the Fischetti
brothers, and that he carried the suitcase supposedly containing the
- money for Luciano. From the article, the data for which was taken
fran the Treasury Department records, you will rind that Sinatra is
- the close friend of Moretti, the Fischettis, Capone, Adonis cousin
to Mcretti, and Luciano. There is much campaigning on the part or the
Government, the press, and the radio, all of whom have been carrying
extensive articles and programs in an effort to rid the country of this
demoralizing situation, drug addiction, particularly among the youth of
the nation. Sinatra is supposedly the symbol of the underprivileged
Outh Of America. That is the saddest mistake ever. He is synonymousY

in Havana when he arrived with the Fischettis? The T-men mere on the

Moretti or Moore was his friend of some years. The complaining
witness developed a husband in-about one month so that the
charge was reduced to adultery which naturally was beneath the

editor and publisher of the magazine "Hollywood Nite Life,"Hollywood, California, was a friend and protege of Frank
Sinatra. Pegler described Tarantino as a swipe and hustler
who used to hang around Jacobs Beech, a stretch near Madison
Square Garden where the fighters, managers and racketeera
gather."
Pegler stated in the above article that George
Evans, Sinatra's press agent and manager had denied that
Sinatra had anything to do with Tarantino. In contradiction
to this Pegler reported that on February A, l9h6, Frank
Sinatra's name was signed first we a member of a "Citizens
Committee" in a telegram to the prosecuting attorney of
Loe Angeles County, California, demanding police protection
for Tarantino and his wife and child who had been "threatened
and harassed by political gangsters. Pegler also reported
that Sinatra had caused the meeting of the "Citizens Committee."
It has been reliably reported that Tarantino
specializes in sensationalism and takes orders from Michael
"Hickey" Cohen the well known Los Angeles, California gangster,

Y rk a letter from the SAC, New 0 ,
above-captioned matter in which
e Doyle, former Bureau Agent,
received from Henry Jaffe, attorney
for Frank Sinatra. Allegedly, Sinatra and/or Jajfe went to
Washington to talk to the Army to determine why clearance was denied
to Sinatra, who had been booked to go to Korea for Christmas as part
of a USO entertainment group, and allegedly the Army advised that it
had information from the FBI which prompted the Army to deny
clearance to Sinatra. This information referred to allegedly was
that Lee Mortimer in a newspaper column stated that Sinatra was a
Communist; that this information allegedly came from Bureau files.Reference is made to
the Bureau was advised by Jere
concerning information he had
The Director noted "Nail this down promptly. H.
Colo r , Chief of Security, 3-2, furnished
Aqent a copy of a memorandum prepared by
d' ant General, Marnane, _xecu fficer to the A Jut
ing the conference which Sinatra had with the Army in the
of the Adjutant General on Septemher 16, 1954, and for which
Marnane prepared the minutes. In essence, this memorandum .
b ad 'sed that, pursuant to a request by Frank éinatra to e vi
had been denied clearance, an appointment had been made for

t General, on September 16, 1954. Present besides the Adjutant
were Major General John CL Hudgett, Chief of-information; mid
former Brigadier General Alfred Kastner, formerly-Qeputy Assistant
Chief of Staff, G-2. At the outset of the conference, General Kleinpeked,General Kastner to outline for yr. Sinatra the basis upon which
yrl sweetie}: request for clearance had been denied» General Kastner i
gwplained that over a period of years many items had appeared in the
pbjidipreas, including the "Daily Worker, and kindred publications,-whibhreflected adversely on Mr. Sinatra'and which, to a considerabledegreeyeddentified Sinatra with the-Communist Party line and, as aghg
result, is serious evidence as to Mr. Sinatra's sympathies wit errespect to Communism, Communists, and fellow travelers. _ _ébaz-;;,.s .21? * 3

General Klein advised Sinatra that, in view of such
evidence, the Army could not grant clearance to any individual
about wh m the slightest doubt existed.
J Sinatra then went on to state that he hated Communism,
had never been a member of a Communist organization, had n0
contact with Communists or Communist organizations, and the
irresponsible accusations made against him had been so absurd
that he had not refuted them. He went on to relate that he was
eager to provide entertainment for the troops anywhere in the_
For East, Europe or the Continental imited states. He further
stated that he would carry this matter to the Attorney General
in order to clear his name, and he would engage counsel to
represent him.
General Mudgett then informed Sinatra that, from an
entirely impersonal point of view, circumstances being as theywere, the Army could not risk at this time giving a clearance to
Sinatra.
' Colonel Marnane advisedthat he was at the
conference and prepared the minutes of same. He stated that the
officers mentioned above were present also, General Kastner
representing G-2_for aeneral Arthur G. Trudeau. He advised that
General Kastner, other than the statements attributed to General
Klein and General Mudgett, carried the entire conversation for the
Army. General Kastner restricted his comments concerning Sinatra's
Communist connections in their entirety to newspaper clippings, and
at no time did he ever mention files of the FBI or any other
organization. As a matter oj5ct, Colonel yarnane stated that
the G2 file prepared for this conference merely consisted ofnewspaper clippings, and it was agreed that if Sinatra pressed
G-2 for the source of their information, General Kastner was going
to present the file to Sinatra so that he could read it.
Colonel Marnane advised that the name Jaffe is unknown
to him but advised that Sinatra was accompanied_to Senerql Kleins
office by an individual, whose name he couldtnot recall, who was
introduced to him as an agent of some sort. This individual
remained in the outer office during the conference.
r Bureau files reflect that in answer to a name check request
from the U. S. Air Force OSI! a summary of information concerningSinatra was furnished to that Agency on January 22, 1952, and a "
Photcstat of the summary was furnished C-2 on February 19, 1952.

concerning Sinatra. However, information from public sources
