fvn Decgtber 14, 1954, I sent you a noteindicating that/arren Olney had called me and commented helhad a couple of matters which ."in the in terests of harmony"he would like tn discuss with me so that "we won't get_ intomemo-writing contest." He stated he was too busy on Decemberto discuss thege; matters with me, but did come to my office a9:30 A.l_-'2, Decaiiber 16, 1954, and started his comments withobservaon that: he had previously told you that when he becamAssistant Jéttorifey General in Charge of the Criminal Division, ,0he fodnd that there were many members in the Department who _92did not like the F31 and were endeavoring, when the cpportunityvqlpresented itself, to _put the FBI on the spot. He ,/urther stated, :;_that he had informed you that he intended to eradicate any -92"__such feelings in the Department; that he intended that the N;Departmental Attorneys and the FBI representatives function ,'192on a very amicable basis and that he, Olney, has been _endeavoring to do that. He commented that quite a _~-few of the "people in the Department, particulaiy in his Division, have beemoved. I advised Olney that it had always been the desireof the FBI, and would continue to be the desire of the FBI, Ethat__there be an amicable relationship between the representativesof the Department and the F5'I_.- that in fact such a relationshipf~_ __{was essential to the proper consummation of the affairs being transacted on a daily basis between the Bureau and the FDepartment. ,
- Olney then commented that a memorandum had beenreceived in connection with the case entitled, "Unknown _Subjects; United__',S'tates vs. Umberto<§n_g£ga_s_i9__,-__Obstruction ofJustice." 0lney':pre_/aced his remarks that he was not of the 'J opinion that we should have conducted an inve.-tigation of "alleged jury tampering in the trial of Umberto Anastasia _and that he was, as a matter of fact, -writing a letter toUnited States Attorney Raymond Del Tufo, Jr., asking for-more explicit information as to the grounds upon which Del Tufo-92| felt there would be justification for requesting investigationof jury tampering in instant case. He stated, however, >__thate.._in our memorandum dated November 30, 1954,-'"a copy of which iattacébliid for your information, that there was a statement,

"it would appear the United States Attorney was endeavoring
to 'undermine'the Judge." Mr. Olney stated-zat he and othermembers of the Department could not understand why the FBI
should be inferring that .the USA.was'-endeavoring to undermine
the Judge. I told Olney that I couldn't believe that we wouldmake such a statement and asked him if he had the memorandum
in question with him.- He did. I read the paragraph which
is as follows: "In view of the foregoing, the United States
Attorney has declined to discuss the requested investigation
with the trial judge since he feels the judge would not approve
of the request and it would appear -th_ e United States Attorney
was endeavoring to 'undermine' the judge." '
I told Mr. Olney _that I couldn 't understand his
interpretation since it appeared to me quite clearly that it was __the United States Attorney at Newark who had commented that he _y
was declining to discuss tre investigation with the Judge because 1it would appear to the Judge that the United States Attorney
oas endeavoring to undermine the Judge and that our paragraphin the memorandum was merely indicating to the Department the
reasons why the USA was declining to discuss the matter with theJudoe. I told Mr. Olney that I would immediately verifymthewmatter and let him know.

discussing the matter with Messrs. osen-and I/interrowd andthat I had detected no indications of any indifference
on the part of either of these people; that in fact Mr. Tinterrowd
had very carefully considered ever ossible manner in whichassistance. might be rendered to what was unable to_ "ascertain on .the basis of the fac s furnished that there was any
basis for an FBI investigation. I pointed out that Win terrowd
had talked with David Luce, 0lney's Executive Assistant in theVH6-'riminal Division, and that Luce hadjurnished no statutoryauthority for further proceeding in the matter. I told Hr.Olney that I would again talk with .'-fessrs. Winterrowd and Rosenrelative to the question of indifference and advise him. I Wu _pointed out to Olney that had there been any facts furnishedby wto indicate that the Communists were endeavoring tointimi ate whe could be assured that we would have verywillingly con ucted an immediate and complete investigation of
the situation.
Olney, during the con-se of the conference w!-ich I{had with him, repeatedly indicated that he was not here for theZ purpose of creating issues; that he did not feel that thereiwere any issues involved in either of these two situations whichllhe was bringing to my attention, but that the purpose of "
discussing the matter with me was that there had been hurtLfeelings because of the terminology contained in the Umberto '
"Anastasia memorandum an a 0 no of indifference bythe FBI towards Olney felt thatin the interests of harmony e wanted o discuss this matter_with me so that in the event there was an entirely plausiblelyezplonation on my part, he could set his people straight and= allay any erroneous attitude existing on the part of any of
his people. I told Mr. Olney that I would be in touch with,and I immediately contacted Messrs. Rosen and-Winterrowd; gothe tickler copies of the cover memoranda and thi Departmental:12: W,

investigation with the Trial Judge. I pointed out to Mr. -Olney that the reason for the quote around the word "undermine" _in our memorandum to the Department was -that it was the word usedby the USA; that had the FBI sought to charge the USA with an
attempt to undermine the Judge, there wold have been noquotes
around the word "undermine." Mr. 0lney' stated that the entirematter is, very clear to him and that during, the period of time after?had returned to his office, he had already straightened out his 'people on this situation. _ _
As regards the-matter, I pointed out to Hr.Olney, as was reflected in the memorandum of Mr. Pric t Mr.Rosen, November 26, 1954, that Special .4gent , .our week-end duty supervisor, in rec iving the comp aint fromand after advising that the FBI was not ina position to afford him protection and it would not be possible - -_for the FBI to tap his line, further advithat he shouldat ~immediately contact the Bureau should he evelop anydditional information which he believes to be pertinent. I "9"'ointed out to Hr. Olney that this would certainly not indicateany indifference. ' ,
,,_ I then informed Hr. Olney that Hr. in terrowd hadiitallied to I/avid Luce, Executive Assistant to Olney, on November 26,e-._..H1954, and» that liinterrowd had pointed out to Hr. Luce that in "--"the absence o an further information in addition to that already
furnished by othing could be done by the Bureau at this .tine, but that should furnish any pertinent information 92!9vthat he might receive in this matter in the future. ' I pointed V
out to Hr. Olney that that again would fail to reflect an
attitude of indifference. Olney stated that apparent y oure'elin_os in the matter had not gotten across to
Hr. Olney stated, however, that after discussing thematter with me, he.was now in a position to clear ' indicate totnet the FBI was not at all indifferent 10* Olney wes ated that he would et his peoplestraightened ou on boththe Anastasio and imstters and was very pleased that he hadhad this discussion wi h me, since the matter was now completely
resolved.
I asked Mr. Olney if there were any further questionsin his mind concerning either of these incidents and if hefelt that he would like to discuss them any further. Mr.Olney stated that they were both handled to his complete satisfactir92and that he would appreciate the-matter being dropped at this point.|He stated that he, of course, was desirous that this entire '1| matter be considered an informal matter. .

he should immediately bring it to our attention.
ACTIOI-';I have dictated this memorandum in some detail becauseOlney has, through his comments that he was taking this up withme informally, indicated a desire that I not confirm this inwriting to the Department. I normally would confirm such aconversation in writing to the Department and will do so if you _desire.

"The twin probes involve three mysteries of the
kind that have marked the career of Anastasia throughisho
years - a murder and the baffling disappearances of three
other persons who were important potential witnesses against
the gangland czar. .. ' a é
"The exact nature of the new evidence that has
revived interest in Anastasia wasn't clear, but Miami
authorities did say they want to question willie Pep, the former
featherweight boxing champion, as quickly as possible. Pep '
is fighting in Tampa tonight and isiw be brought in for V
questioning as soon as he can be subpoenaed.
"Friend of Guard"
"Pep was a close acquaintance of Vincent Macri,
former Anastasia bodyguard who was bumped off in April, l95h.
About the same time his brother, Benedicto Maori, garment 1
center figure aquitted in the William Lurye murder case and
an associate of Anastasia, mysteriously disappeared.
"A year later, in May, 1955, a retired Fort Lee
plumbing contractor and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Ferri, vanished from their home leaving only bloodstains = ,;;;;
behind them. Mr. Ferri had been a key witness in a pending
income tax evasion case against Anastasia.
Anastasia is the common denominator in all of ~
these cases, Assistant U. S. Attorney Albert Blinder declared
in Miami today.
"Checking Leads."
"Mr. Blinder said Pep had been questioned in
New York because of his close acquaintance with the
Macris, but he added that the fighter was wanted for further
questioning in Florida because we also have some confidential
information. A
Florida sources said that Bronx Assistant
District Attorney Fred Baroni had spent from Feb. 21 to 25
checking out new leads in the case in Miami,and Miami A
authorities sent Chief Investigator Fred Jones Jr. to the
Bronx to work on the case here.

"The Supreme Court today refused to reviewthe government's unsuccessful efforts to cancel thecitizenship of Albert Anastasia, reputed head of theold Brooklyn Murder, Inc., mob. A i
"Federal Judge William F. Smith in Newark,New Jersey., ruled Anastasia had obtained his natural-ization by fraud and ordered it canceled. This openedthe way for deportation of Anastasia to his native Italy,but the United States Court of Appeals in Philadelphiareversed Judge Smith.- ,
"The appeals court ruled that a naturalizationexaminer might with greater diligence have discoveredAnastasia's fraud upon the naturalization court and so -the government was not deceived into granting his citizen-ship in 1943.
"Appealing to the Supreme Court, the JusticeDepartment said the Philadelphia court's action was
erroneous and_{undermines the very foundation of de-naturalization law. """' '
"In its appeal, the Justice Department said thePhiladelphia appeals court opinion holds the governmentbound by neglect or lack of Judgment of a single minoremployee and specifically holds the decree of a court tobe immune from correction for fraud.
"Such a holding, the appeal added, has contin-uing importance in all fields of governmental activity-_since it makes the rights of the government as a wholedependent on the error of any subordinate employee. Evenif the examiner were in fact aware of the fraud, his faultcannot bind the government or the denaturalization courtso as to render Anastasia immune from the consequence.of-alihis own fraud." V
In an article appearing in the "New York DailyNews" dated May 18, 1956, the photograph of AlbertAnastasia appeared with the caption, "Gangland figure,Albert Anastasia second from right and covering his facewith a handkerchief! leaves brother's funeral service.with his group of mourners.">

The "New York Times" for Decembzr 2h, 1952
in an article on Albert Anastasia advised that the biography
of the Brothers Anastasia began in Tropea, a fishing village
in Calabria, Italy. The family name was Anastasio. The
father of the Anastasia brothers was a railroad worker who -
died before.World War I; By that time the fanily consisted
of nine sons and thrte daughters. One son and two daughters
died young. Another son emigrated to Australia." All the
remaining boys had to go to work at an early age, on fishing
boats, on fveighters, on farms; one succeeded his father on therailroad. '
Umberto, later called Albert, now fifty years
old, Guiseppi Joseph!, now forty-seven, and Tony, now forty-
five, shipped as deckhands on tramp steamers as children of
eleven and twelve andknocked about the toughest ports in the
world. At various times durinq the Twenties they jumped ship
in the United States and merged into the gangs of longshoremen.
Albert, the oldest and most sinister of the
Anastasia brothers got involved as-far back as 1921 with the
criminal element as he was among several men convicted
of killing a fellow countryman in a quarrel. After months A
in the death house at Sing Sing Prison Anastasia won a » »--
retrial on a technical plea.
ibanwhile the State's best witness in this
case was frightened back to Italy. On the retrial, Albert
was acquitted. e was arrested for assault in 1923 but
won a discharge by the same technique of intimidating witnesses.
The same year he was convicted of possessing a gun. He
served two years in the penitentiary.
In 1928 the subject was charred with another
murder and in 1932 with stabbing a man to death with an
ice-pick, but was dismissed for lack of evidence both times.In 1933 he was tried for the killing of a Brooklyn laundryman
but the State's witnesses somehow changed their story.andhhH ________
he got off again.
By this time the subject was rising to power
on a Brooklyn waterfront. e became a pier superintendent

Association, A.F.L. In addition, Albert had become a friend,
as he admitted in 1951 to the Kefauver Gomittee, of Joe"
Adonis, Willie Moretti, Vito Genovese and Augi Pisano, importalt
thugs. - 1
With Adonis and Abe Reles, Albert formed Murder,
Inc., the famous racket syndicate that slew sixtyéthree men
in the New York area between 1931 and l9h0. Reles later
testified that Albert was the fingernan and ordered all of the
killings. . __
In 1939 Peter Panto, the longshoreman who
organized a rank-andfile revolt to rid the union of racketeers
was strangled and his body was buried in a lime pit. Reles,
He implicated the subject in this and thirty more murders. 'accused of several other murders, told all to save his life. l
Then Reles plunged to his death from his room in the Half
Moon Hotel in Coney Island in l9hl 816 William O'Dwyer, then
Brooklyn District Attorney, said his "perfect case" against
Anastasia had collapsed.
H in Taking refuge in the Army in l9h2 the subject
hid out as technical sergeant training Army longshoremen at
Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania for the next two years.
- Before he was discharged as over age in l9hh
he took advantage of a law granting quick citizenship to
servicemen. After he quit the waterfront and the rough stuff
he began operating a dress factory in Hazleton, Pennsylvania.
The subject bought a $75,000.00 yellow stucco house of phony
Spanish style overlooking the Hudson at Fort Lee, sew Jersey
around the corner from the home of his old friend Adonis.
There he lives behind a steel fence guarded by
two dogs, and spurns subpoenas of the State Crime
Commission. He has two Lincolns, his son goes to colle"e,M__ ___ ____
and he and his brothers have bought Mama Anastasia, now age
76, a home in Parfhelia, Italy where the Federal Government

Anastasia

Jigsaw Puzzle,
Says Detective
1 Detectives investigating the
inurder of Albert Anastasia arenot overlooking the cherehezi
la lemme" angle. Chief oi De-i
tectives James B. Leggett dis-
closed yesterday.Although the "lord high ex-
ecutioner" oi Murder, Ine., never
had the reputation oi being a
ladies man. there could be a
woman involved "somewhere in!
the background." the chief con-
ceded. Ostensibly the gangster!was devoted to his wife and tam-'
ily and he enioyed playing par-~
c eslinhis 1=ortLee.N.J..ho e.
.'There are about 150 poss _ le
a les to this case." the ch ei;s ' . "It could have been azyi02;. possibly some one who h d2a grudge against him or even aslight grievance in the past." i5 Trenton. Gov. Meyner said he0-u ah. 0-1-as!I , . 1 ,
Coppola Still Held ;

Anastasia: coiiee sergeant or,messenger, was questioned for 1|filth day yesterday by police.He was held late Monday insso.ooo bail as a mam-tat wit-i
ness. Ile was across the street
Xrom the Park Sheraton Hotel
barber shop at Seventh Ave. and
55th St. when the gangster was
shot down there by two gun-
men at 10:20 a. in. Friday.; Coppola's lawyer had said onMonday that his client would
raise the bail within two days.
; § I ain't got no money tor
jail." Coppola complained yea-rlterday. "It's all a iarce." ~ i
.Chiei Leggett indicated this:wpuld be a "long exhaustive
pursuit oi little pieces of inior-"
rnation that would have to be
put painstakingly together-alikea jigsaw punle." » '- '-
5 "No One Big Enough "
.Anastasia apparently had no
idea any one was gunning or
him and probably ielt that "no
one was big enough to take
him." the chiei said. adding the,
mobster probably ielt his ear-
some reputation was all thei
protection he needed. §
-At a press conference in
g was certain that Anastasia had
. not been operating in New; Jersey. The Governor said he
zknew nothing oi reports that
=New_ Jersey authorities were
checking a possible link be-
tween Anastasia's murder and
the still unsolved October. 1951,
slaying oi Willie Moretti. an-
other gangster, in Cliiiside
Park. N. J.

. v , . . - ~ ' _ = sZnoiher Mu|fder, lnc'_ _.'?é92P- - To'.assume a "good riddance" atti-
tude toward the killing of gangland's
one-time lord high executioner " Albert
Anastasia-as some persons may be in'-
.cl.ined to do-would be to ignore theshocking realities or the New York crime. a- b 4/
It is true that Anastasia, once head of
"Murder, Inc.,"'met a sort or retributive
justice when.two gunmen rubbed him
out" with an efficiency reminiscent of
"_Mu.rder, Inc." But the alarming tact
is that the shooting of this killer, tol-
lowing so closely upon the recent abor-
tive attempt to murder another New
York gangster, Frank Costello, indicates
that another murder syndicate maybe
operating in New York City. At any
rate, it is joltingiy evident that the era
oi big-city gangland warfare, generally
thought to have passed pretty much out
of the picture in recent years. is not
yet ended.
§he slaying of the loathsome Ana-stasia presents a challenge to the New
York policeand to law enforcement at
large-that must be met with all the
resources of the law. For while one-killer who, amazingly, was able to escape
punishment through the years, has beenerased from the list oi America's top
criminals, other killers as ruthless astheir victim remain tree to operate
