Hr. J. Edgar Hoover, Director

y Waehington, D. C.
ly dear Hr. Hoover:
r
a11; I was very happy to learn that on
larch 8, l9h6 President Truman awarded you the
Medal of Merit at the Ihite House.
It was a well deserved honor for
your excellent leaderehip of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation during the ear years. Iithout
you and the members of your organization eorking
long and hard to prevent iubiiriiie actiiitiei
in this country, it would have been impossible
g to keep our armies in the field well supplied
, with the necessary tools to finish the job at
g an early date.

Dear 1:-. Hoover:
I have just. read the speeches of the Hon. Fred Bradley
of Ifichigan made in the House in January entitled "Warning! Leave
the FBI Alone" and I was very shocked to learn that unAmerican
influences are again endeevoring to have you replaced as Director
of the FBI.
I personally feel that this would be s calamity and I
have written Ilr. Bradley and my friend, Claude Pepper, to this effect.
I am enclosing copies of W letters to these individuals.
Jith best wishes, I am

school in Tame for the henerit or my 1'-GP. and other la:
enforcement men in this oommmity and to aeeure you thatit was quite a benefit to all the zen. Ir. Foard proved
