T Kbrnitzer, a minor official of the post World War II- _
ungarian Government, initially entered the U.S. in 1946 and remained
here after a disagreement with the Hungarian Government. Since 1947
he has been in touch with the Bureau on numerous occasions making
repeated efforts to arrange for an interview with the Director on
;one pretext or another with the objective of writing an article or
jbiography of the Director. As an author and biographer, Kornitzer
has been in contact with many leading political personalities in the .
- fU.S. and has authored several books including one oh the Eisenhower
'brothers in 1955 and another on former Vice President Nixon in 1960.
Kornitzer, while disclaiming to be a "name-dropper frequently -
_ Juses this technique. In l947_a Bureau official described Kornitzer
as a smooth-talking, fast-operating,tricky individual who would use
la contact with the Director to his advantage in meeting other
iindividuals. a 'I.1,

following the airplane accident involving. Senator Kennedy.
At about 1:00 a. m. , on Saturday, June 20, 1964, Mr. Ed
Guthman, Special Assistant to the Attorney General, telephoned me and
advised that he and Deputy Attorney General Katzenbach were proceeding
to Northampton, Massachusetts, to join the Attorney General at the
hospital where Senator Kennedy was confined. He said thatlthey were
traveling on the Air Force plane carrying the military physicians who
had been ordered to the hospital by the President. Guthman asked for no
assistanceand none was offered. Qx
. .. ;~
- a Guthman subsequently advised me on SLmda'y"afternoon that
theaplane left Washington at about 3:00 a. m. , but the partyldid not reach
Northampton until about 8:00 a. m. , as the plane had to land at Stewart
Air Force Base in New York because of adverse weather conditions at
Northampton. Army cars then drove the party to the hospital.

SUMMARY FROM ITALIAN
II i Letter to the Director postmarked July 3, 1964, from:
x " b6
b7C M2» s Y S aronno ..... Tr¬EsI§tsr's Note: This address is gs;
completesince the writer, who has written
before, assumes that the Director knows
the full address!. 92
The communication is undategg The writer has just learned of .
the air crash in which Senator Edwar ennedy was involved. He is very
sympathetic and wishes to conv or his» best wishes for a
prompt recovery also on behalfof the majority of Italian boys and girls.
Since he does -not know the Senator's address and has been _
corresponding with the Director, he hopes that the Director will forward
the remaining portion of the letter to Mr. Edward Kennedy whom he
addresses personally.
In the portion of the letter addressed to Senator Edward Kennedy,
the writer encourages the Senator to look forward to a brilliant future,
pointing out that the cloiud which has cast a temporary Shadow on his life
will soon disappear "under *a- most resplendent sun.
g He wants the Senator to know that he is not the son of an important
man, but the son of humble workers, a "capacity which, in his estimation,
makes him entitled to interpret the feelings of the Italian working people best.
The letter closes with a few words again addressed to the Director L! .
to thank him, together with the Agents and Interpreter, for the "cumulative
effort" which will make his message reach Senator Kennedy. »

Dear Mr. Hoover:
I am writing to ask your help in putt@ E _
together a short book of recollections about
my father.
The book is intended. to be a collection
of essays by persons like yourself who knew
Dad intimately and whose memories would help
- others to know him the same way. It would be
principally for Dad's close friends, his family,
and, most importantly, his gandchildren, so that
these memories could be shared and maintained.92* 9292
It is my hope that you would like to put
down your thoughts about significant events in-
volving my father, especially anecdotal accounts
that would contribute to a profile of a man who
has great warmth and affection and, at the same
time, commands strong loyalties from those whoknow and have fjéjced with him: r/4?"? e-».. .4 ..... -.--$Mi; lift :1 J REF glam? £2] _ _s , _. , 7l0g:,j_*i"' 230/ - *._ %§92 ,3 QCT 1954

somewhere between 806 and. 1000 words. It is
hoped. that these essays could. be completed by the
first of the year in order to get the book pub-
lished by early Spring.
My progress at the hospital has been fine and

,I"~ .gi By letter dated 10-13-64, Senator Kennedy advised he is cu r.ntly 6 /
putting together a short book oi recollections about his father, Joseph P. Kennedy.
It is to be composed of personal essays written by those who are the senior Kennedy's
closest friends, and the Director is requested to write an account of this nature. Mr.
Hoover has indicated he would be agreeable to providing Senator Kennedy with such an
article.
INFORMATION IN BUFILES:

to the Director on a first-name basis. On numerous occasions, he has expressed a _
great admiration for Mr. Hoover and the work of the FBI. He was a Special,Servic
Contact of the Boston Office from 1943 until 1954, following which he was an SAC
Contact of that Division. ' .
as.
The FBI has never conducted a complete investigation of Mr. Kennedy?92however,. a limited inquiry was made" in May, 1951, at the request of the Department. »
This cfoncerned an allegation that Mr Kennedy, then owner of the Mer%handi'se Mart S~ . , I ,0§~in Chicago, had given $100, 000 for the removal of Government offices Tiiom that
building, No specific facts were developed and the inquiry was closed oh 6-'7-51.

arranged for a fellow student to take an examination for him in a foreign language
course during his second semester at Harvard. When school officials learnedof this,
both students were asked to withdraw and apply for readmission later.
In July, 1961, Edward Kennedy made a tour of Central and South
American countries. During this visit, he expressed an. interest in meeting with
"Leftists" to talk with them and to determine why they think as they do. He met with
a number of individuals known to have communist sympathies. The Ambassador to
Mexico refused his request to invite left-wingers to the American Embassy.
<5! 92|
He was reported to have dined in August, 1961, -with Dr. Lauchlin
Currie, former White House Aide to President Roosevelt. Currie's name had been
mentioned in Washington investigations of Soviet spy rings.
The Bureau¥s relationship with Mr. Kennedy since he entered the U. S.
Senate has been primarily concerned with matters of an official nature; however, the
Director has had limited cordial correspondence with him during that time.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the attached letter be forwarded to Senator Edward M. Kennedy,
advising him that the Director will be glad to provide him with the requested essay.

Dear Senator Kennedy,
Last week I had pleasure of visting Washington D. C. for the
first time. I also had the great pleasure of visiting the beautiful monuments/and institutions which have made our nation's capitol world-famous. One of
my visits was to the FBI, conducted for us by a future FBI special agent.
As I saw the many techniques of the FBI, as well as its responsibilities,
noticed a sign which said that the FBI does investigate conspiracies of
any person s! directed toward depriving any U. S. citizen of his constitu-
tionally guaranteed rights and privileges . The pamphlet about the FBI's
role in these matters is entitled "The FBI. . . Guardian of Civil Rights"
states that ". . . the FBI has authority to investigate. . . conspiracies
to deprive a citizen of the free exercise or enjoyment of'any right or
privilege secured to him by the constitution or laws of the United States
and conspiracies against citizens resulting from their exercise of such
rights. . . " Webster defines "conspiracy" as a secret planning together.
'
After the tour ended, I happened to walk around to the other
side of the justice department building and see the American Nazi Party
picketing the department and Attorney General Katzenbach for advocating the
Home Rule in Washington D. C. They carried such disgusting signs as
"Jail LBJ for advocating Black Rule" and "Home Rule is Black Rule, "
etc. Earlier this summer I saw this same group carry similarly dis-
gusting and deceitful signs in front of the park in Wilmette Ill. where
Martin Luther King spoke. Even though I am not a lawyer, I still
strongly believe that it is profoundly unjust for such groups to be allowed
to freely, openly as well as secretly, operate and actively try and accom-
plish its aims. Therefore I am asking you, as one of the members of the
Senate Judiciary Committee to investigate this very grave situation the
Ku Klux Klan and other rightest groups also being engaged in similar
activities.! Thank you very much ,
it ;g Sincerely yours _ J WC
/S/Iii ~

ry 10 'dentifying herself as b6I Mrs. , | jb7CRixeyville, Virginia, advised she was calling long distance frgm
Rixeyville to warn of a plot to assassinate Senator Edward M.
Kennedy on the steps of the Capitol Building in Washington,D.C.
at 4 p.m. on January ll, 1966. _
She stated she became aware of this plot when voices
she had been hearing since last July or August had instructed her
to perform the assassination. Although she later stated she had
seen some "people" she could not further identify, outside her
window last night, she stated initially she had never seen these
people, did not know who they were and explained their ability
to communicate with her by the fact the "house is wired." These
voices had told her they had selected her to act on their behalf
since she was attractive and could get close enough to the Senator
to be able to shoot him. "They" were to pick her up at 8:30 a.m.
January ll, 1966, to take her to Washington, D.C. and claimed that
if she told anyone "they" would wipe out the whole Kennedy family.
When asked for information regarding her background, b6
she stated the] Iwas a cattle farm in Culpepper b7C
County, Virginia and she was not under a doctor's care at the
present time. She admitted having an "alcohol problem" and to
having been committed to the Westbrook_Sanitorium, Richmond,
Virginia, in August 1965, for two or three weeks. She heard the
voices there also, and was told they were the result of "DT's"
but she did not believe it. She explained she heard the,voices
mainly when her nerves are bad and she had been drinking. She
stated she was calling from telephone number West 7329l and her
husband was not home. When asked who was with her, she stated
her aunt and uncle were there and when asked if her uncle would
come to the telephone, she stated "he would just tell you I'm
crazy," and then hung up. .
On January 10, 1966, at corresponding times, the Ib6
" 0 '6 ' ' uals were advised of the foregoing: blc
