for an appointment with the President -- except

to invite the President to visit some college.

THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
June 30, 1950.
MR. MURPHY:
Col. Mara says Sen. Hoey is planning
to ask the President some day next week for
an appointment to come down and ask for the
records on homosexuals.
Sen. Hoey's investigators have visited
all of the Government agencies and have been
formally refused the files. They already have
the Metropolitan Police files, including all
the Blick papers (Lt. Glick, head of Vice Squad).
We don't know what Hoey's attitude is --
whether he is being just a dupe of the
Republicans --- or whether the Republican group
is working up a very sordid smear campaign to
the effect that the President is protecting
the homos.
Col. Mara thought you might want to
be thinking about whether it would do more
damage to withhold the records than to let
them have access to them, inasmuch as they
already have the police files.
