CLYDE A. TOLSON
. ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR '
ENTERED ON DUTY APRIL 2, 1928
DIRECTOR'S OFFICE '
' I
Mr. Tolson earned an Outstanding performance rating for
the period April 1, 1959, through March 31, 1960, as he did for the ~
same period in 1955, 1956, 1957, 1958 and 1959. The splendid manner *
in which he has continued to perform his numerous duties as Associate
Director certainly entitles him to an Outstanding rating for the current
performance rating period. -
Mr. Tolson has been called upon to shoulder a major share
of the ever-increasing responsibilities of the Bureau. This he has done
in an extraordinarily efficient manner thereby making it possible for me
as Director to concentrate on those responsibilities not susceptible to
delegation. He has the outstanding capability, intelligence and balance I '
necessary to judiciously administer the affairs of the Bureau. He has
continued to meticulously supervise our budget and has tirelessly g. »
directed our planning to assure maximum economy with the highest degree
of efficiency. He is truly the watchdog of the Bureau's budget.
Mr. Tolson is a leading authority on Bureau policy matters
as they relate to all phases of our work, both administrative and investi-
gative. He is certainly deserving of special praise for the continued A -
success the Bureau has enjoyed during the past year in the criminal _- .
intelligence field and in the solution of cases of national implication such
as the Kidnaping cases involving Melvin Davis Rees, Jr.; Joseph Corbett, Jr.
and Frank Marrone. These cases had tremendous ramifications and required
adroit top-level planning, supervision and direction from headquarters in
Washington. Mr. Tolson played a vital role ir. the success realized in these
cases.
Mr. Tolson symbolizes all of the finest qualifications desired '
of a top Government official. He has always been superior in his judgment, '
positive and penetrative in his thinking and decisive in his actions. There

are few officials in the Government service today who have exceeded
him in ability, efficiency and devotion to duty. He has devoted nearly
thirty-three years of his life to the Government and to making our
Nation a better one in which to live. The Bureau is deeply indebted
to him for the selfless manner in which he has always championed its
bestinterests. I am indeed grateful for his invaluable services and
can state without hesitation that he has performed every aspect of his
work in an outstanding manner during the rating period and has cer-
tainly earned for himself this Outstanding performance rating.

CLYDE A. TOLSON
ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR ' '
ENTERED ON DUTY APRIL 2, 1928
DIRECTOR'S OFFICE .
- I
Mr. 'Tolson was rated Outstandingon his 1955, 1956, 1957, -_
1958 and 1959 annual performance ratings. He has continued to discharge
his many and varied responsibilities in a superior manner and is most
assuredly deserving of the rating of Outstanding for the annual rating I
period beginning April 1, 1959, and extending through March 31, 1960.
. Every passing year brings a substantial increase in the
responsibilities of the Bureau and Mr. Tolson, as Associate Director
and my top aide, has willingly and ably shouldered a major share of._
the increased responsibilities thereby relieving me as Director so
that I might devote greater attention to the many matters that are not
susceptible to delegation. Efficient handling of the ever-increasing
responsibilities of the Bureau has been possible largely through the
outstanding efficiency, superior judgment and extraordinary effort A
of Mr. Tolson, including many personal sacrifices- As always,- he H
has continued to display unusual talents in every area of responsibility A
delegated to him, meeting each new challenge with refreshing deter- V
mination and competence and setting an inspiring example for his
associates.
Mr. Tolson has primary responsibility for determining
the needs of the Bureau from a budget standpoint. He has consistently - .
displayed an outstanding knowledge and understanding of the Bureau's - V - '
budget matters meticulously analyzing every phase of our operations 5
to insure that they are carried out with maximum efficiency and A
economy. His judicious handling of his multiple executive duties _
in directing top-level policy and operations a.t the Seat of Government. V 4
and in the field has been outstanding. His acute awareness of the e .
constantly changing domestic and international situations has permitted
him to shoulder major responsibilities relating to criminal, security

smoothly discharged. The success realized by the Bureau in highly
significant cases during the rating period would not have been nearly
so substantial if it were not for Mr. Tolson's major contributions in
the top-level planning, supervision and direction of these cases from
the headquarters in Washington. His judgment has been unerring
and his remarkable insight into every phase of our operations and
ability to take the right course of action in matters of major signifi-
cance clearly reflect the most profound thinking. - A
Mr. Tolson has dedicated the most important yearsof
his life to the service of his country. He is completing 32 years
of service in the Federal Bureau of Investigation in important -
executive, supervisory and administrative positions. His value to
the Bureau, the Department and to the entire Government service y ~
cannot be measured; however, it may be stated without reservation
that the success realized by the Bureau through the years has been .
due to a substantial degree to his superior capabilities; his unusual
capacity for work; his keen intellect; his unequaled knowledge of the -V
Bureau's operations, policies and procedures and his dedicated
determination to carry out his responsibilities to thefvery best of A
his ability. He possesses all of the attributes desired of an "
outstanding Government executive and without him the Bureau . _ " _
would truly stiffer. He has performed every aspect of his work '_
in a superior manner and has certainly earned for himself an
Outstanding performance rating.

Invent or :
A Closure for Use and Re-Use on Soft Drink Bottles
and Similar ContainersInvention :
The inventor was employed as Associate Director oi the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, Washington, D. C.
The report contains a written statement of the inventor
that this invention, a device which permits sealing and rescaling
a container of the soft drink type during partial use of its contents, ~_
was invented and developed by him during non-working hours with-
out contribution by the Government. In this statement, he expressed
the view that the invention was not related to his official duties and
thatthe Government had no rights therein. _
The agency, in its determination, agrees with the above
view of the inventor and further expresses a lack of interest in
the invention. It is obvious that, in his position as Associate
Director oi the Federal Bureau of Investigation, his duties did
not contemplate the making of the subject invention, that it was
not related to, nor could it have been expected to arise therefrom.
Upon the basis of the information submitted, the Govern-
ment is not equitably entitled to any rights in the invention.
Therefore, the Chairman concurs in the determination of
the Federal Bureau of Investigation that, pu.-suant to paragraph
l d! of Executive Order 10096, the entire right, title and interest
in and to the invention shall be left in the inventor, subject to law.

'Deui'ce to -Save Carbon'ation
Equipped With Handle for
Opening and Closing '
By STACY v. JONES
. 5:-eciel to The New York Times.
' WASIKINGTON, Jan. 22-
The No. 2 man in the FederalBureau of Investigation was
awarcied :1. patent this week for
a bottle cap. It doesn't require
' an opener, and can be resealed
to keep carbonation from escap-
ing. -."§ _ Clyde Aiyfolson, associate di-
rector of the F. B. 1., is the
inventor. He once cut his finger
on a bottle, and decided there
must be a better way to open
_one. After experimenting with
"several models, he applied for
,-a patent.i The cap has a handle'on one
side that can be pulled up with
the little finger. The handle is
,§>ressed down again for reseal-
':ng. Tn assui-e the patron that
,he is getting fresh soda or pop,
la plastic or paper outer seal can
be added.
For six months the inventor
kept in his office a bottle
equipped with his cap, and al-
though he opened it many times
the carbonation stayed in. A
friend obligingly blew one bot-tle np as a test, and the cap
stayed on. Samples have been
submitted to a number of man-
ufactiii-ers. _ 4
Mr. Tolson is a member of
the bar. Bom in Missouri, he
took :-. business college course
and in 19.l9 came to Washing-
ton, wliere he was confidential

Flying Landing Gear
Engineers for the GoodyearAircraft Corporation, Akron.Ohio, have invented what might. be called a flying landing gear.It rt? anlauxiliary craft thatcar es a_ arger airplane pi gy-back during take-off and lind-
lng.
The purpose is to relieve long-ra.n_ge bombers of the weight of,heir own landing gear. The:aving in fuel, and consequent"increase in range, is calculatedln the patent .921,756! at1'l'0ni -15 to 20 per cent, and
¢°ll$ld¬!8ble reduction in the"length of take-off is expected.The power, or auxiliary plane,has an oversized landing geariand a cradle on which the largerplane rests. The upper plane,which has no landing gear, lstemporarily attached to theauxiliary by a hydraulically op-erated boom. When he gainsEnough altitude, the pilot of thelmain plane can release his switch engine" which would]return to its base. He will needilit againor one similarwl-ienihe Wants to land. IThe inventors, Darrel C. Bor-fden and Edward Wolf, have jet?power in mind for both planes,but say the auxiliary mighthave turbo-prop drive. Thecomposite aircraft has been pro-.posed to the Defense Depart-
ment but so far has not been
ordered.

Dear Mr. Hoover: , -
This is to advise that I have invented, 10: use on soft
drink bottles or similar containers, a. closure oi a type permitting
re-use for repented manual unaeniing and resealing of the conminer,__
as might be required, for example, during gariiai use oi the c0nia.1ner'B
contents. A drawing showing pertinent details of this device is nttached
hereto.
Since this device was invented and developed by me entirely
upon my own time, without contribution by the United States Govern- .
meat, and since it is in no manner related to my oiciai duties within ~
the Federal Bureau oi Investigation, it is my view that the United States
Government has no rfghts, to title or otherwise, to this invention.

CLYDE A. TOLSON
ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR
ENTERED ON DUTY APRIL 2, 1928
DH1ECTOR'S OFFICE
Mr. Tolson was rated Outstanding on his 1955, 1956, 1957 and 1958 "
annual performance ratings and has maintained an even higher level of performance
during the current rating period beginning April 1, 1958, and extending through ,
March 31, 1959. -
- " Mr. Tolson possesses all of the attributes necessary for discharging
to perfection the heavy responsibilities of his office. He, as Associate Director
and my highest ranking aide, must shoulder the very heaviest responsibilities of
the Bureau. He has the outstanding capacity, intelligence and balance necessary
for judicially administering the affairs of the Bureau. Although he has always dis-
played exceptional talents in every area of responsibility delegated to him, he has
during the rating period exhibited these talents to an even greater degree than in _
the past. Mr. Tolson possesses infinite wisdom which manifests itself in the onerous
responsibilities he is compelled to assume. Without his astute handling of a tremen- _
dous amount of the executive functions of the Bureau, I would not be able to devote
my attention to all of those matters which do not lend themselves to delegation.
- Mr. Tolson is a foremost authority on Bureau policy matters as they -
relate to all phases of our work such as intelligence, criminal, identification, train-
ing, personnel, budget, etc. He, literally is the watchdog of the Bureau's budget '
being constantly alert to ways to effect an even greater economy in our operations.
I lean to him for expert guidance in the preparation of material for my use before *
the House Appropriations Subcommittee each year. As the manifold responsibilities
of the Bureau increase each year, Mr. Tolson's responsibilities increase propor- '-
tionately, thus requiring even greater efforts on his part. He meets each new chal-
lenge with refreshing determination and confidence that inspire his associates to
strive to emulate him. The success realized by the Bureau in serving the public in 1
its statutory obligations would not have been nearly as substantial if it were not for
the role played by Mr. Tolson in planning and directing our policies, procedures " _:
and operations. He symbolizes all of the finest qualities desired of a high ranking; . '
Government official. lie has always been superior in his judgment, positive and -
penetrative in his thinking and decisive, yet judicious, in his actions. These
qualities have been most pronounced in the outstanding manner in which he has
administered the responsibilities of his position. Having completed over 31 years

3 his life to the betterment of the Government's service and the primary objective
of the Bureau, to make this Nation a better one in which to live. This organiza.- '
tion is deeply indebted to him for the selfless manner in which he has- always
= promoted its best interests. His most out'sta.nding objective has always been to.- ..- _. discharge the responsibilities of his position to the very best_of his ability with
Ya the interest of the Bureau always uppermost in mind. He has realized this
~.j objective with the highest degree of eminence. I am grateful for his invaluable92~.-..-I services and I can state without fear of contradiction that there are few officials .*l'i R in the Government's service today who have exceeded him in ability, efficiency - '
. and devotion to duty. Throughout the entire rating period Mr. Tolson has performed _
* every aspect of his work in an outstanding manner and certainly has earned for him-
- self this Outstanding performance rating. '

for Q employees in the Federal Government, except the heads of agencies, 8' 8 ' »
elected officials, Federal Judges, and certain other specific employees. The '
aew formula provides for rst computing the hourly pay by dividing the annual ,
salary rate by 2080 hours 60 pay days in year multiplied by 8 hours! and A _ ~
multiplying the hourly rate thus obtained by 8, 40, or 80 as the case may be to A 7

any computation is converted to a whole cent. The old formula provided for
obtaining. the biweekly rate by dividing the annual rate by 26 pay periods; the "
biweekly rate divided by 80, adjusted to the nearest cent provided the hourly
rate, and the daily rate was obtained by multiplying the hourly rate by 8. .
¢- The new formula simplies many pay computations, however, in
many instances it results in employees receiving in a year slightly more than
the annual rates of pay. This matter has been discussed with officials in the

are legal. 'lhe new pay formula was recommended to Congress by that ofce,
with the full knowledge it would result in such higher payments in some instances; -' '
estimated total yearly payments in excess of annual rates for entire Government
approximately $4, 500, 000; GAO felt additional cost would be more than offset by
savings through simplification of pay computations; bulk of excess payments
caused by the conversion of fractional cents to whole cents. '

CLYDE A. TOLSON
ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR .
ENTERED ON DUTY APRIL 2, 1928 .
DIRECTOR'S OFFICE * -
~, Mr. Tolson earned an Outstanding performance -rating for the period -
April 1, 1954, through March 3'1, 1955, and for the same period in 1955 and
1956 as well as in 1956 and 1957. Since then his performance has continued on ~
an even higher level of efficiency and without question he again merits a rating 5
of Outstanding for the axmual rating period from April 1, 1957, through March 31,1958. ' ~ H
Mr. Tolson, as Associate Director and my top aide, has been compelled
to assume the major portion of the ever-increasing responsibilities of the Bureau. I
As the burdens and responsibilities of the Bureau have increased, his share of ' ' -
these burdens and responsibilities has increased in direct proportion. He has .
displayed an extraordinary ability to analyze the most complex and important Q
problems that arise and must be handled judiciously at the very highest level in
the Bureau. By assuming a tremendous share of the executive functions of the
Bureau, he relieves me, as Director, in order that I might focus more attention ~ .
on those matters not susceptible of delegation. 1 _ ' -
Mr. Tolson has been an aggressive a.nd tireless worker in the meticulous
supervision of the Bureau's budget, and he personally directs our planning to make
certain our operations are carried out with the highest degree of efficiency and . _
9 economy. His acute awareness of domestic and international situations has 1
permitted him to shoulder major responsibilities pertaining to matters inthe 5
security, criminal, and civil fields over which the Bureau has jurisdiction.
Additional legislation and programs of the executive branch have required the
Bureau to assume increased-obligations, and Mr. Tolson has played a major role
in insuring that these additional responsibilities are smoothly discharged. During
- the rating period the success realized by the Bureau in cases of major signifi-
cance has been quite extraordinary, and this success in most instances can be -
attributed to the key role assumed by Mr. Tolson in his direction of top -level
V ' planning and supervision in Washington. His judgment has been unerring. His '

.
insight intothe vital operations of the Bureau has been most remarkable, and
ability always to take the right course of action in matters of major significance - '
clearly reects the most profound thinking. ' A
_ t Mr. Tolson recently completed his thirtieth year of service in the _
Bureau, most of which time has been in top -level executive, supervisory and
administrative positions. His value to the Bureau has increased in tremendous
proportions with each passing year, and is imdoubtedly due to his enormous
capacity for work; his unequalled knowledge of the Bureau's procedures, policies,
and operations; his keen intellect; and his dedicated determination to serve the
Bureau to the very best of his ability. Mr. Tolson's value to the Bureau, the I
Department, and the entire Government service is immeasurable, and without
him in the prominent, top -level position which he occupies the Bureau could not
have enjoyed the success it has. He personifies all the attributes desired of an
outstanding Government executive, and he certainly has earned for himself an
Outstanding performance rating, as direct evidence of his meritorious performance.

The Director's decoration is the Order of the Star of Roumania-in the
degree of Commander. - This was awarded by the Roumanian Minister in
Washington, D. C., in 1938 en behalf of the King of Roumania. The Director Q -
acknowledged the award at the time and transmitted the award to the State . w
Department. State Department records further reect the award to the Director
of the rank of Commander of the Order of the Crown of Roumania in 1934.
_ Mr. Tolson in 1938 was awarded the Star of Roumania with the degree
of Officer. He was notified of this by a Roumanian police official and the award
was made on behalf of the King of Roumania and is presumably in the custody
of the State Department. _ .
The decorations of Special Agents Anderson and Garcia are the
awards of Orden Del Merito Policiaco from the Cuban Government and were
made in 1950. The Bureau had sent a training mission to Cuba composed of these
two Agents in 1948 and they conducted courses in connection with a Cuban j '
Police School and also acted as advisors to Cuban police officials. The graduation
ceremonies were held at the police school in 1950. SA Anderson is now assigned s
at Havana; SA Garcia at Mexico City. - _ A
SA Henry C. Johnson is now assigned at Mexico City, He was
assigned to the Office of the Legal Attache at Bogota, Colombia, during the SIS
period. He was awarded the Colombia National Police Medal in 1946 at a
ceremony held at the police school in Bogota. He had served as Police Liaison Agent
' . SA Howard P. Winter, now assigned at WFO, was assigned as Civil .
Attache to the American Embassy at Port-an-Prince, Haiti, during his SIS ~
service. In 1944 he was awarded the decoration of Chevalier in the Haitian '
National Order of Honor and Merit, from the Police Chief at Port-an -Prince.

two articles in today's issue of the New York Journal American, one
concerning the Director and the other concerning yourself. In DorothyJjilgalleri s column, "Voice of Broadway," one paragraph is devoted to
the following. "Eye Hoover for FBI Film. " This paragraph goes on to
state that Warner Brothers desires that the Director play himself in the
forthcoming film based upon the book, "The FBI Story. "' '

first suggested in this col-

such osculation on feminine

be pleasing."years ago. If the claim is
questioned, I will call LisaKirk as my star witness. Lisa
agreed with the §Lll!8E5"°"quite enthusiastically and
dropped me a note to say _s0.

Horses And Women
To what extent. it any. do
women find it displeasing to
be kissed by a man with A
beard or mustache? Our
Horses and Women exP@I'15
have been trying to check on
that vital question for some
time with no appreciable de-
gree of success. However. we
note one authority on_ female
beauty says being kissed re-

been offered a million dollars.
~Ridiculous Ratings
Badly informed scribes con-
tinue to give out with ridicu-

I note Swaps referred to as

even have to go back from
the present to name a better
horse than Swaps. That is
Rlbot, the Italian thorough-

the reference to Liberace as
the world's greatest pianist.
He isn't even as good as Os-

repeated referencr to Mar-

Mr. FBI. _ .
Through the years, the FBI was shaped in the image of this manst ~
ideas and ideals. No other agency in the federal govemment bears the
imprint of a single personality as clearly as the Federal Bureau of In-
vestigation. _Hoover is the FBI. But his position of strength-and the strength
of the FBIisnt merely a matter of one mans personality. The real
secret lies in the fact that Hoover has around him a group of top-ighty .
executives who climbed from the ranks of the FBIs special agents.
They came up the hard way, by merit and not as somebodys political
pets. Hoover trusted them to make decisions. In turn, these men have
repaid the trust with loyalty and erce pride in the FBI. They accept
without question the FBI policy of anonymity. Their names are not
widely known beyond the doors of the FBIs Headquarters. And yet
they hold in their hands much of the responsibility for the nation's
safe . T%s inner circle is composed of nine men of whom Hoover has said,
You can't buy the kind of energy and devotion they have given to
the FBI. / I-Ioovers top lieutenants gather each Monday and Wednesday and 9/ DURING the gang-busting 1930's, J. Edgar Hoover became -
if need be each weekday at 10:30 A.M. in what is known as the FBIExecutives Conference. The presiding oicer is Clyde A. Tolson, -who
came to the Bureau on April 2, 1928. '

¥£1 start practicing law at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where he had gone to[
I
is application, causing a stir in the Chief Clerks Oice, which had
grown accustomed to having applicants describe their ambitions for a
lifelong career in the organization. The unusual letter .found its way to
Hoover. ' ,.
Hire him, if he measures up after the examination and investiga-
tion, Hoover said. "He will make us a good man. .
Several months after joining the FBI as a special agent, Tolson was
brought to Headquarters as Chief Clerk, and then he moved up fast.
I-Ie became an Assistant Director in 1931 and ve years later he was
named Assistant to the Director. In 1947, Hoover gave himthe title
of Associate Directorformal recognition that Tolson was the Number
2 G-Man. '
Tolson, like Hoover, is a bachelor. The two men have become such
close friends over the years that their intimates say they have even
reached the point where they think alike. Tolsoncarries much of the
administrative load which I-Ioover handled himself for many years, and
serves in effect as Hoovers chief of staff. .
The third man in the line of command is Louis B. Nichols, who
handles a tremendous number of chores for the Director in addition to
running the Records and Communications Division and representing
the FBI in matters not handled personally by Hoover. Nichols is an
Assistant to the Director, a title also held by the Number 4 man,
Leland V. Boardman.
Below Tolson, Nichols and Boardman, there are six assistant direc-
tors who are the operating chiefs of the Identication, Training and In-
spection, Administrative, Domestic Intelligence, Investigative and
Laboratory Divisions. _ V
These men did not reach their positions by being yes-men. They ar-
rived by being willing to accept hard work, make decisions and take
on responsibilities while submerging their own personalities in the
FBI. They push themselves harder than they do their subordinates.
It isn't unusual for them to work twelve or even fteen hours a day.
They do it because there is work to be done-ard their work comes
rst. . ' .
In the conference room, each executive-is expected to say what he
' s, whether the problem deals with his own work or the work of-
omeone else. But he had better be ready to defend the position he Dakes, and have his reasons ready. These are strong-willed men andl;there are, at times, clashesof opinion. In questirgns of basic policy or

in dealing with grave issues, the conference passes the decision on up
to Hoover, but always with a recommendation as to what course should
be followed. If there is disagreement, an alternative recommendation
is also made. And then the decision is up to Hoover.
But when these men walk out of the conference room, they walk
out as a team. The decisions have been made and each man knows
where" he is going and what he is to do. Their shoulder-to-shoulder
teamwork is one of the keys to the FBIs reputation for unity and ef-
ciency. V
None of these men seems to see anything unusual in accepting ano-
nymity as a part of the job. Any one, or all of them, could leave the
organization and go into private industry at a large increase in salary.
But they stick to the FBI.
Tolson once explained it this way: I think most of them stay for
the same reason I do. You get something out of working for the FBI
that is more important than a pay check. .
Another key to the FBls eciency is the exacting attention that is
paid to small details. A typist who makes a mistake in a word oria
number, and anyone else who overlooks the error, has done a sloppy
job. Mistakes are never disregarded. -
The effort to achieve accuracy in work details is time-consuming
and might even be regarded in private industry as a waste of time
and energy. But to the FBI, this effort is the essence of doing the job
properly. Tolson said: Precision is the cardinal virtue of an investigat-
ing agency. Many a criminal has been convicted, and many an inno-
cent person absolved, because somebody took pains to be accurate
about an unimportant little fact, ., .
