THE WHITE HOUSE Rosenberge
WASHINGTON
May 27, 1953
MEMO FOR THE FILE:
Spoke to Brownell and urged him to play war
of nerves with Rosenbergs, including if
necessary temporary stay of execution by
the President.
Brownell advised that the matron had
managed to ingratiate herself, and that
they had hopes in that direction.
Urged upon Brownell that the warden,
matron, prison doctor, and anybody
else involved should have impressed
upon them the subtleties of the situation
and the game that was being played, rather
than let them play it by ear. This was
no longer a police matter.
Brownell agreed to do something along these
lines.
