Longtime head of the F.B.I., during the Vietnam War his time was consumed by combatting anti-war protestors, some of whom advocated violence as a way of stopping the conflict.
Typed Letter Signed on his F.B.I. letterhead, Washington, September 3, 1971, to Robert J. Boyle, Editor of the Pottstown Mercury newspaper. “I have received your communication of August 30th enclosing an editorial entitled ÔA Hood Is A Hood.’ You have accurately described the misplaced loyalty of the group that considers violent action not objectionable so long as it is in furtherance of their concept of what is best for this country. My associates and I appreciate your bringing to the attention of your readers your staunch support of our actions in this matter.”
