Ltr to Lt Col Partridgs, Report of Investigation at Three Rivers,
Texas, 21 January 1949, Contd.
and asked that I do so. Phen I called the Governor and explained
the situation to him, he assured ne that he would take action at
once. Judging from the attached clipping from the Houston Chronicle
of Thursday, 20 January 1949 he apparently did so.
There is also a political angle in this connection. In
1946 Mr. Gray ran for State Representative and Dr. Hector Carcia
went all over the county talking against Mr. Gray who was defeated.
In 1948 Mr. Gray ran again with Dr. Garcia/working against him but
Mr. Gray whs elested this time. I give you this information in
order that you may see another angle to the situation.
I also an attaching a clipping from the Caller Times Yews
of Corpus Christi where Senator Linden Johnson stated that he did
not release the telegram to the press himself. The release was made
by Dr. Garcia.
I should also like to add to this that it ras necessary
to make two calla to the Gonzales Funeral Home in Corpus Christi
to have them pick up the remains of Pfc. Raymundo T. Salas who was
consigned to that funeral home. Sgt. Boos, the escort, not
allowed to sers the next of kin until Sunday before the funeral.
If there is further information which you desire on the
above matter, it is requested that you contact the undersigned.
thing very truly floor yours
