During telephonic conversation, I spoke to Ir. Btanley about the T Z.
Gulatae situation. I told him that the developnents in thisoasa are be-
aming even lore complicated than ever before, and I nk the ennoancnuat
could be aede, either at the press conference Thursday or sooner, to the
effect that Us have Geletss in custody. I stated that if this annotncsaent
is loads, I would Ient to know possibly six hours in advance so that Is oould
aove hin from Chicago to lenses City, because he will not go volwiaaa-i.ly after.
the announcement is nede. I told his that in asking this announcement, I ' -
had in mind originally announcing the identity of the lenses City adenine-
gunners, namely Floyd end I-Lichetti; however, there is lly one dreabsck to
that; as are confident that they are the aen, this conclusion being based
upon the identification of an eye witness aho see Floyd, a latent fingerhprint found in Ferns Killer's house, and upon alto statenmts of Ieodles aho
has nearsay evidence! end of the Iife of Vern lltller, tho has told us that
Floyd and Richetti come end stayed st their house the night before the
massacre, aent. out early in the morning, and returned two hours later,
Floyd having been shot in the ens st the station plaza. I informed Ir.
Stanley, however, that Hrs» Verne lliller will not testify before the lfllld
Jury or in Court since the is fearful of her life. I ststedthst of course
so knee the identity of-the machine-gunners, and I think itaipat. be sell
for the attorney General to announce it so that it nay be inoln generally
that as are looking for Floyd and Hichetti, and why we are looking for then.
I pointed out, however, that the District lttorney at Kansas City would then
very likely densnd at once to have the evidence n-nishod to than so that _
they can indict for murder; however, as can't do that because the only
reel evidence is the statement oi Ire. Ierne Iillorr -.. -.. _ - . .-,- ~.._- -. __ . -_' __ _._ q_.
I also pointed out the connection of Leaie in this astter; that lillor

and this setter will involve a nuaber oi politicians in lenses City. I stated
that United States attorney lilligen at lenses City smts to cell a grand jury
the latter pert of this aonth to obtain further indictaents in this case, which
l think is the proper action to take; that, however, this would probably bring
out some oi the various political angles that any involve former Ooaaiseioneroi Police gfppert, at Ihose place Lssia made his headquarters during this tile.

On October 8, 1934 I teleP1loned In-. Ladd and requested nu
information concerning the release oi Vernon Oliller from the South Fakota
Penitentiary. Ir. Ladd obtained the desired information and sent a teletppe to
theiiivision advising that Vernon O, Iiller was paroled September 13, 1921, and
finally discharged from parole December 4, 1924. Ibis infomation has been set
forth in the press release dated October 9, 1934- Ir, Ledd also adrieed in a
telety-pe message that the nolle prosequi was entered at Sioux Falls, South
Dakota on January 1'7, 1931 in the case against Vernon O, liller who was indicted
for violation oi the Rational Prohibition lct on October 20, 1925 and released
on bond which was later forfeited.
Ir. Ladd also informed me that Ira. Harry "Dutch%e;yer is now inst. ma; am-. the woman um whom sbeis nnms
port the preeenee'6r1rE'."Be3qeriin]fe1: home4I,_o4s_tg_avoid_ harboring _ _ es,h onisih }}.;Paul are beginning gs gee effect; * *
Ilith respect to th'eA./rininal record of adan,Q1chetti, I telephoned
Special agent in Charge B. H. Reinecke of the Indianapolis Office, and requested
him to obtain information relative to the release oi Richetti from the Indiana
State Reforlnatory, Pendleton, Indiana. Ir, Reinecke obtained the intonation
and telephoned that Bichet had been released September 26, 1930 on parolextohis brother-in-law, I, l ey of lewoka, Oklahoma and that a final discharge
from parole was entered ptember 24, 1931, I pointed out to Ir, Reinecke that
the Cincinnati Office had been requested to obtain information respecting
Richetti's incarceration at the Indiana State Reformatory in the report of
Special agent Treinor dated April 21, 1931, and apparently had not been covered
tor the Cincinnati Office, but Iae recently referred to the Indianapolis Office
under date oi august B, 1934 when copies oi Special Agent Trainer's report and
other reports bearing on Richetti were torearded to the Indianapolis Office.
Ilr. Reinecke stated that he was ehorthanded, but would have an agent cover the
matter within a leek and I suggested that he send an Agent to Pendleton in-aediately
to obtain the intonation with respect to correspondence -records and other in- 92
formation that Ill-llt be helpful in locating Richetti. Ir. Reinecke stated that
he would do this,

"Er. llagee telephoned end advised that the paper there is
carrying a big headline to the effect that two were arrested there in
the Kansas Cit1;I_I__P-sia_gr,e case; that part of the story is garbled but
it will be straightened out; that the story gives the Division e lot
of credit in this case and refers also to the Dillinger and Lindbergh
case; that they mention 3tanley more than they do the Director but that
will be corrected in the morning edition. I stated this was all right es
ltr. Stanley probably gave out the release and the Director, I felt, would
e to see him receive some favorable cement. llr. Iiagee stated that the
pars feel e little badly over the delay in the story and I told Hr. Hegee
t he might tell them that it was necessary to question tbis man and no
blicity could have been_given because it might have jeopardized our future
search and we had to check on his associates end background and this would
have been impossible if there had been any publicity. Hr. llsgee stated that
he would send in everything that is published.

he said they were getting nothing. I stated that they are eta. g
it is rather difficult to get anything from them. Ilr. Cowley stated
that they are handicapped to e certain extent because all they need is this
fellows statement and of course he has it in for us; that there is nothingconclg%§e about this fellows position; that it is likely it is true but
at the me he hcs en ax to grind and has it in for these other fellows;
that they might not be able to hold him very long but they will see how it
goes. I asked whether any publicity was anticipated in St. Louis regarding
picking him up. Ilr. Cowley stated that he imagines there will be some ~* "
publicity; that they may, however, be interested in keeping it quiet and he,
Gov.-ley, does not know just how: they will react to it. I told Ilr. Cowley that
we should take the same attitude we did with Fritz Halley and state that we
have no comment to make and will not embarrass a pending case by making any
' statement and no significance should be attributed to our failure

This is with reference to your memorandum for the Director, dated
September 8, 1034, regarding a telephone conversation with Er. Cowley eoecern- . _

Er. Cowley stated that the gun was continually is the possession of the
S eriff's Office sicce 192? until it was loaned to authorities at Crown Point,
Icdiane, the: Lillitger was returned to that institution. ' -
'1
The ertanirotion of the r1.:*1 by me occurred just cefore the arrival O1 BI.
Kiard. Kr. hiard made the ears era inatin and reached the sane cciclusion, a
positive one, naxelr, that seven c? the shells in Gill's collection said to have .
been found at the scene of the Plaza ShOOtiWQ and the shell'io his collection said
tt have bees found at the lazia killing, hear im;ressione from the bolt.i* this
mechiwe gun. of course, it is yossible to change the bolt of c.gun and the ideht#'
ificatio: of s weapon as being the ideatical owe in one's yossessioc depends ugon
act 11 ertxieation of the numbers sod other identifying things. cf course, in the
rassecre as Ltzia killing there are serious ansriciohs concernisg the attitude ~?
3--;.»' of tT".e Jet l:"-l'0IC£".8"'t 92>3"f'i¢e1s as indicate? 1'". the letters of assistant
Di':'a.--':- r ' =rc-id "s.*.'qe-J1. other 1-ror-"-3, there are nzny _to-sail-le explanations ci
the situation other than the :o"cl eio that the Lzlortorf is wrong.
n3 Er. Cowley says the laboratory report upon the tallistic evideuce sub"
nitted from the South Bend hank robber? states that it is believed of the rive shells
these were fired from tro differewt runs, that One of these was holieved to he a
.?I1ox'.1:sc=i'1 Sub-:..aohi":e gun and the other a .4? caliter Colt 1=.uto':|z-...ic pistol. :.Ir.
Cowley states all the oitnesses claimed the only shots fired were from a machine qua
and further that he does not believe such laboratory reports should be submitted.
Kr. hisrd has examied these specimens and verifies my finding that the
shells may be divided into two groups which were-fired from two separate guas.3 He .
believes that each of these guns was a Thompson Sub-machine gun. I re-ekemined the
shells and am is full accord with this opinion. The reason for the staterent in the
laboratory report regarding the Cclt Automatic has been checked as fer as possible
and apparently s mistake was made in dictating or transcribing the report. 'This'is
believed to be true hcc:use*ny notes trittew at the tire or the examination do sot
i"dicate that these specimens were found to be Colt autometic's, although there is 5
reference to other specimens with thich they were compared. The report its dictatedo" t!.e 2.261;.-ho'1e and the record has been shaved. ;_ mm . .P_ -.:?_"- - I ____ /Q 9/~

I. Fey celled and advised that he h ust received a telephone
call from Hr,rFulcher of the editorial staff o berty Hegesine; that Ir,
Fulcher advised that he received e telegram a s rt time ago indicating that
Galatas was recognized in New Orleans es a result of e photograph which appeared
In their September 15th issue of Liberty lisgazine; that inasmuch es they have
offered a reward of $1,000, he would like us to verify this for him. Hr. Fey
dated that he has a copy of a letter dated October 3, 1934 which use sent to
Ir. Fulton Oursler, Editor in Chief of the Liberty Magazine and signed by
Hr. Hoover, which is quite cordial; that they tent to pay this reward as
quickly as possible for the effectiveness that it might have and possibly
to effect the apprehension of others and also to show their good faith.
Iir. Fay stated that Hr, Fulcher is going to call him every fifteen minutes on
this. I told Er. Fey that the best thing to do, until we get the situation
clarified, is to tell him that he, Fay, will have to refer it to ashington
and see just where the information came from; that it is e fact that a fellow
did see Gelates' picture and cane in and said that he sew him and it resulted
in his ultimate apprehension; however, st the same time somebody else had gone
into the United States Attorney's office and given the same information so that
there will be three claimants as there is a third fellow who claims some
participation. I told lir, Fey that I would discuss this with the Director
and then advise him; that we will probably want him to state that one fellow
participated in his epprehesion as e result of seeing his picture in Liberty
but we will know definitely tomorrow. Ilr. Fa: stated that the telegram received
by lir. Fulcher was signed Richard G. Harris, Federal Reporter, New Orleans Item
Tribune, but he does not know if he is the informant, I stated that I think
he is e newspaper reporter end he was not the informant. I told llr. Fay
to advise Mr, Fulcher that he will advise him on this tomorrow.

ing witness if 1OCnt8d. Fe requested thst he be advised as to whether
the inforsetion which we have_concerning this woman would indicate
her_:oesitle attitude in this regard. Hr. Killigen indicated that it -
nignt'be more desirable to use her as a witness rather than to name
ner as s defendant.
rr. Iilligsn discussed the case rather fully nith the Agents,
en; reouestel advice frou then as to the proper persons to introduce
r certain testimony before the grand jury. From this discussion he in-
dicated that he would grohshly desire to call the following as sitnesses
before the grand jury for nurgeses of returning the desired indictment:

co yetent to testify would be entirely agreeatle to him. ith reference
to his desire to introduce Lallistic evidence concerning the weapons
used in the massacre, it is thought that the Division might prefer to
oesignute one of its experts who has examined the original evidence,
rsther than Hr. G111.
Fr. Killigen advised further that it is his desire to call
further nitnesses for general questioning before the grand jury, with
particular reference to the local angles of the matter, including the
possible bartering of the P1ft101§&t5 in the massacre, and the sup- .
pression of inrormttion concerning it. In this connection, he called
attention to the feet that by tringing e large number or witnesses

iqiediately after the return of the indictment, if desired. ith '
reference to krs. Frances Nash, Fr. illigan stated that he would
desire to talk personally to her and, in the event it was indicated
that she expected to trrthfully disclose all information in her
possessi.n, he nowld feel obligated by the promise of immunity ex-
tended to her ty his predecessor in office.
Ur. Tilligan desires that a summary report incorporating
the material witnesses eni the testimony which they can give be
prepared for his use as soon as possible. The advice of the Division
concernin: the lClLoi0D in such summary of testimony recently ad-
duced frcm certain of the Subjects, is regnested. Such a summary
nstld of course be handed to Kr. Killigan confidentially, for his
personal use.
as has teen previously indicated, Fr. nilligan is desirous
of attaining such favorable publicity in connection with this matter
as may be possitle, and Sheriff Bash is also interested in the sane
netter. Er. illigan ul the conference today asked agents Andersen
and Trainer thether tee; had any information es to when the.Department
mould Lake pullic any announcement concerning this case. He stated
Lhwi he does not inteni to prematurely give cut any pullicity, but
he does desire to nake e statement to the press at such time as sim-
ilar action is taken Ey the De;artnent. Sheriff Bash will undoubtedly
desire to take similar action. In connection with Bash, the attention
-3 the Division is celled to the fact that he has, from the inception
of this case, been intensely interested in its solution, and has con-
sistentl} clung to the theory that Floyd was probetly implicated. It
will be recalled that he offered a personal reward for the apprehension
o? ?lc3d shortly after the massacre. I would like to have you consider
the desirability of advising me at such tine as it is contemplated to
release this story, in order that I might inform Kessrs. Filligan and
Bash, if such action is in accord with the Division's wishes.
I have outlined at length the intentions of Fr. Milligan,
in order that the Fivisicn may inform me if any of his contemplated
actions are not in accord with its wishes. I feel sure that r. 2111-
igan will te desirous of cooperating full? nith us.

Kansas City, Missouri, to take into Iederal custody LaCapra',' &om,'it .Iill be '
noted, furnished the original information as to the identities of the parti-
cipants in the slayings of this case. It sill be noted that from all .5PP0ar-
ances the underworld was seeking to dispose of I-aCspre by "spot" K1111-U50

agent Trainer proceeded to Wichita, Kansas on sentence: e, 19:4,
where it ass learned through police officials that Lacapra was being held as_
a material Iitness at Iellington, Kansas, pending trial of the three men who
tried to assassinate him. These individuals, who are mentioned in the reference 92
report of 9-5-54 as Robert 1£cOoy,.l:ohn Pace and J'erome'Cretes,' eere fiugerprinted A

their police -numbers in the order mentioned are~dllO, dlll and 6118. me . .
Division has furnished to this office the criminal records of each of these
three individuals and those records are very extensive. It appears that those
parties are Ste -Louis, Missouri gangsters. Photographs as taken by the Wichita
Police Department have been furnished by this office to the Division. _,
It Ias found frcm press reports at Kansas City that the Kansas
Ci ty, Missouri Police Department had first endeavored to secure custody of 92
Michael Iames Iaaapra on charges of Highsay Hobbery,_it having been charged »
that LaCaprs had engaged iiil such e robbery at Kansas City about one year agoii .
It was also found, through press reports, that the Po}-loo Department had been _
unsuccessful in securing custody of LeCap'r-a from the Prosecutor at Iellington,
Kansas, she had Iplaced-him under a bond'ss s material witness and kept him in
Jail at Iellington. Agent subsequently learned from County Prosecutor Potusek,
at wellington, that the Kansas City Police had offered him no substantial
State charge on which they claimed to wish oustody of Laapra and he doubted
their sincerity, and therefore retained laapra in his custody. Newspaper re-
ports also showed tl -at a subsequent attempt on the part of the Kansas City
