Washington, D. C. CO SUMMARY September 21, 1945 8:10 AM CORCORAN to EDWARD PRICHARD who said, "I got your message yesterday. " CORCORAN asked, "Any luck?" PRICHARD said he didn't get in until late, hence he "had not even seen FRED. What's the status of it now?" CORCORAN said, "Well, it's all waiting." PRICHARD said, "Did MARKHAM write the letter?" CORCORAN said, "Yeah, JOE knows all about it. He's got the letter. I understand it's the letter he wanted, I don't know." CORCORAN said it was declared to be the letter he wanted; that they had no interest in the thing at all-anything he wanted he could have. CORCORAN then said, "Oh, PRICH, did you go out to where you went to settle things?" PRICHARD answered, "Pretty much. Yes, I think I'll be going back the first of next month." PRICHARD asked when BEN (COHEN) was expected and CORCORAN said the end of next week. PRICHARD said that in that case he'd see BEN before he went. CORCORAN asked PRICHARD to let him know before he goes because "I do want to arrange those things I talked about." PRICHARD said O.K. 11:25 AM MAC WRIGHT, in Las Vegas, Nevada, to CORCORAN. MAC said that DOC CUNNINGHAM is with him and that the three of "us" met yesterday and went over the whole thing and everything is all right. MAC said "we're" going to present it to the Board this morning. MAC said that "they" want to receive something from CORCORAN to the effect that he is not representing. CORCORAN said to have them write him a letter asking him if he is representing and he will answer it in the negative. MAC said that "we" are all disturbed because the bill passed the House yesterday. CORCORAN said that doesn't bother him at all; that the fact that the bill passed just precipitates the filing of the suit. CORCORAN asked if MAC had told them about the danger of "certain persecutions. MAC said he had. CORCORAN said he doesn't want them involved in any of that stuff. CORCORAN said he is afraid that the fellow may have agents in that state who can get caught. 2:05 PM CORCORAN to A. T. HOBSON at R.F.C. HOBSON said that the story on the CAHILL matter is that "she" asked "our man CHAPIN" for a $4,000 job and they didn't have any jobs which paid more than $3,600. HOBSON said that "she" didn't file an application and didn't leave any address so they can't get in touch with her. HOBSON told CORCORAN to have "her!! go to the office in New York and see BILL FARTHING. CORCORAN will do so. HOBSON said that BROWNELL had talked to FARTHING and FARTHING will see her. HOBSON then asked CORCORAN about HOWIE (CORCORAN) and TOM said he thinks HOWIE is in London with the State Department. 2:35 PM GEORGE BOWDEN to CORCORAN. BOWDEN said he hadn't had a chance to talk to WARD PERROTT (phonetic). CORCORAN told him to call PERROTT now. BOWDEN asked if CORCORAN saw what happened to "my old outfit"--O.S.S. CORCORAN said he did. BOWDEN said he had something to do with that. BOWDEN said that he had written a report suggesting a better solution than any which has heretofore been suggested. CORCORAN said he had talked to the General (DONOVAN) both before and after the transfer to
