    On April 17, 1968, aconfidential source who has
    furnished reliable information in the past, ascertained that _"
    _.&#39;on that
    date Stanley Levison_was in contact with Dora-McDonald.
    _sggretary to Martin Luther King,Jr., deceasedhead ofthe - ,
    SCLC, and thereafter Coretta King,_wife of Martin Luther King.
    McDonald
    92 told Levison that ?Meet the Press" wants-Ralph -
    Abernathy, successor to Martin Luther King as head of the SCLCJ
    to appear on this program as soon as possible and Coretta King
    at_a later date. She stated that she had not talked to
    Abernathy who was still in Memphis. Levison questioned if
    Martin Luther King had not been scheduled to appear_on "Fade,
    the Nation" then that
    added "Meet the Press" was the roughest
    -one. He said he had talked with Abernathy and advised him &#39;

    would do so before

    as far &#39;
    as Abernathy is concerned, it_won1d"he1best if he

    &#39; Levison referred to Coretta.King&#39;s-possible- - .
    appearance at the major mass anti~Vietnam:war_demonstration_ .
    =&#39;schedu1edfor New York City on April 27, 1968. He-said_
    he had checked.with Dave Dellingeris National Director, - _ =
    National Mobilization_Committee to End the War in Vietnam!
    .office and that he, Levison, feels thatitisalright for her
    &#39; to appear on this program and also to participate in the &#39;-
    Mothers March in Washington, D.C. in connection with the -
    Poor.People s Campaign! as_1ong as she.does not doznhing__
    else.&#39; &#39;
    . &#39; . . .- ..

    &#39; -Levison then told Coretta King that he had checked - ~


    Dave
    with De1linger&#39;s office and that there
    is a good
    1 platform so that if she is inclined to particpate, they &#39;_&#39;
    should be prompt1y_advised so they can have the benefit of i
    the publicity. He emphasized that she-should not do other;
    things because it would be too much
    exposure}_ Comparing heri"
    situation that
    with of Jackie Kennedy, Coretta commented that -
    she believes many people see that her life was not the same, _
    .that-people understand she_was
    how in the picture" and have &#39; "
    - now given her amandate that she must remain "in the picture".
    Levison agreed but counselled-this should done-gradually
    be
    and in good taste" _&#39; . &#39; &#39;

    _Coretta asked requests


    about for articles about
    herself and Levison advised that, as ageneral principle, &#39;" _
    -proceeds for-suchrarticles&#39;shou1d=goto her because the subject -_-
    of the articles will command the price." He said if thousands
    are paid for an article, then a-few hundred is all the writer -
    entitled
    is to. "

    Levison mentioned that Grosset and Dunlap, an


    old publishing is
    firm, comingjout with "I
    a book, Had A&#39; -
    -Dream", about Martin Luther King which is unauthorized- He &#39;~
    said_Harper and Rowe are willing to have their lawyers prepare
    . an injunction presenting or stopping-the pub1ication_andl
    distribution of this but
    book, atelegram is needed from. I *
    Coretta to_proceed. Levison then read atelegram for her -
    signature and she agreed to have Dora McDonald-send it
    immediately. &#39;

    Coretta discussed requests she had received fer _
    appearances andjLevison stated that she would&#39;receive=many-&#39; -
    requests but-that She will haye.to be selective-and turn" h&#39; -
    many down; He-counselled that she should adopt the position - .
    that, for the present, she feels that_activity in King&#39;s &#39;
    behalf has to be toward his memorial and that itswould not~ _-

    if her name is used by everyone. added

    be closest to King, his family-and his 0rganization.- He _
    said it is important in preserving the strength of aname" _
    that it not be overused. __- &#39; "

    _~ Finally, Levison asked if Coretta wanted him_to .


    contact Dave Dellinger. She stated that he should call -
    Dellinger and point_out that her exposure must be limited
    and that she must be protected because she-is only doing _
    the things she feels very strongly about, that is; those
    things that are related to the work of her husband}- I
    Aconfidential source, who has furnished -
    reliable
    &#39; information in the advised
    past, .
    in April, 196M,&#39;that StanleyLevison was
    asecret.member of the Communist Party, ,
    United States of America GP, USA!, in -_
    July, 1963. In late&#39;l963, and ear1y,.196h,- .
    he criticized the CP for not being_ ~- ~- ~
    1sufficiently militant in the civil rights- P
    struggle. &#39;Levison was described by certain_ &#39; &#39;
    GP leaders as being to the "left" of the CP -
    in his position on civil rights, His ; _
    - differences with the CP, however, are merely Q
    tactical and he continu shis ideologicai -

    Asource advised on May 1, 1963, that the Women


    for Legislative Action was formed in 1952. claiming to be
    an independent organization dedicated to non-partisan parti~
    cipation inlegislative and civic activities. Its position
    in faVoring_or opposing legislation usually parallels the 92
    position of the Communist Party and related groups. It also
    supports legislation to abolish the House Committee on Unw
    American Activities. Membership in the women for Legislative
    Action does not, of itslef, connote membership in or sympathy
    with the Communist Party.

    Another source advised on May 11, 1967. that the


    Women_for Legislative Action continues to be active in the
    Los Angeles area.

    In her acknowledgment at the front of the book-Mrs. King


    stated that Stanley Levison had read.the entire manuscript
    and had offered many useful suggestions. She also acknowledged
    the valuable legal and personal assistance she got from Harry
    Haohtel. Later
    in the
    book she said Levison and Waohtel were
    two of King&#39;s
    dear friends and that King sought their adviee
    {92 and used them as sounding boards for his ideas. She said
    Levlson always worked in the background and his contribution
    was indispensable. She added that Levison and Naehtel were
    two of the most important supporters of her husband&#39;s
    work
    and that they continued to assist her in many valuable ways
    to this day.

    In the epilogue to her book. Mrs. King thanked the _.-


    people who sent checks to continue her husband&#39;s
    work and those
    who sent checks specifically to the children and herself .-V She
    r used
    said she had these gifts to assist her in setting up and
    a
    maintaining staff and an office to handle the large volume of
    i mail and "the myriad requests made,of me." &#39;

    - This selfless, megianimous, decorous attitude is belied


    by hrs. King&#39;s
    actual shrewd, calculating, businesslike activitie B
    In Augist, 1968, following King&#39;s
    death in April, 1960, Levison
    and Harry Bels onte, the Negro entertainer, conferred oi
    concern over
    Belafonte&#39;s a request by Mrs. King for fifty percent
    of an SCLC fund. Levison said her request, which amounted to
    $200,000
    about was for fifty percent of; -the Martin Luther King
    Fund which was established with the -understanding that it would
    be shared with her. A confrontation between Mrs. King and the
    SCLC leadership was imminent oier this matter and many other &#39;
    things. Levison, Mrs. King&#39;s
    devoted friend and protector. told
    Belafonte that only about half the money that had been collected
    -
    for the Martin Luther King Fund had been put into that fund.
    Therefore, if Mrs. King&#39;s
    request was granted, she would still
    "
    only receive about twenty percent of the fund. .

    F On page 245, in w:.iting_abo92.itthe death of President


    92 Kennedy Hrs. King mentioned the courage of Hrs. Kennedy and
    92 added that for all theirpwssb iel explanations and their deep

    faith in God. she and King were persoi l-. lyin n dark abyss
    of sorrow for "this ga1.1ant.compassionate and wise man." She
    indicated that in a way President Kennedy was King&#39;s best friend.

    In attendance other than


    Deputy Attorney_Genera1
    Kleindienst were Assistant.Attorney General Will R. Wilson-
    of the Criminal Division and Assistant Attorney_General
    Robert C} Mardian of the Internal Security Division. Inspec o
    George C. Moore, Section Chief of the Racial Intelligencei
    Section, Domestic Intelligence.Division, accompanied me and
    gave those.present a rundown o.the highlights of the ogerall
    racial extremist picture in the country today.

    Mr. Kleindienst stated he was quite impressed with


    the intelligence the FBI was developing in the black extremist
    gand
    eld certainly recognized
    the threatthat these
    political
    terrorists represented especially to
    as kidnapings, assassi-
    nations, and other such acts which could shake the country.
    In this regard, he specifically voiced his concern as tb the
    current racial undercurrents which could spontaneously "
    erupt
    into riots if provided catalytic
    with action similar that
    to
    of the assassination of Martin qP1$} in

    forthcoming3massive peace demonstration here in Washington, D.C.,
    on April 24, I97l,92and if she is not given adequate security,
    extremist elements be
    could provided with a target which could
    kick things off. Mr. Kleindienst thereupon instructed Mardian

    Hart, &#39;I un.ney,-
    and 14
    members of the House of epresentatives have taken
    -&#39;;
    strong
    a position in support" of the April 24 demonstration. The forces that
    -92 &#39; have
    forged the alliance tor April 24 represent the
    broadest and most diverse
    - base of support-thatdthe peace forces have ever had.

    that if a significant number of elected officials combine
    their strengths with large numbers of people whose convictions are sufficiently
    strong, and with a determination to end the war, this willlbe a clear mandate _

    I lI l
    this is the single most important thing that I could do at this timetoward -
    fulfilling my
    husband&#39;sdream. t- &#39; -

    &#39;
    am gratified
    I that persons
    like Senators
    McGovern, Hartke,
    Gravel, I
    Hart, Tunney, and 14_n:te1_-nbers of the House of Representatives have taken
    astrong position in support of the April 24 demonstration. The forces that
    have forged the alliance for April 24 represent the broadest and most diverse
    base ofsupport that
    the peace forceshave everhad. l&#39;

    This war has ravaged our domestic programs. It has created aclimate _
    of wanton violence at home and in Vietnam, and it is patently responsible
    for the unprecedented deterioration of our values, _Without adoubt, America
    has continuously built for war and destruction, with agrant disregard for .
    peace and development.

    It is my
    conviction that if asignificant number. ofelected officials comiiirm
    their strengths with large numbers of people whose convictions are suiicie&#39;na.-
    strong, and with adetermination to end the war, this will
    be a clear
    mandsi:
    to the Nixon Administration to
    move toward ending this brutal and immoral
    I
    war. still believe that the power to bringabout positive, lasting change
    rests with the people. - &#39; - &#39;
    _-

    I will
    be with you on April 24
    in Washington. -
    &#39; Yours for alasting peace, &#39; &#39;

    Memorandum to Mr. Adams -&#39;


    Re: Freedom of Information Act Request
    Concerning Martin Luther King , Jr

    He said he is also concerned about reports appearing in the


    press recently which alleged improper activities concerning the FBI.
    He gave as an example the allegation in the New York Times of
    March 9, 19? 5, that the Bureau had ordered handwriting samples of
    Young to beobtained in order for his signature to be forged. Young
    said that he
    is not interested in helping the press
    attack the FBI.
    having
    by the Bureau s files concerning King made available because
    I
    he has personal knowledge that the press, in the early 1960&#39;s, was
    aware that FBI Agents circulated false reports concerning members
    of the SCLC and doing other things to disrupt their activities. He said
    that at
    that time he and others had requested the press to identify the
    Agents involved, but they consistently refused to do so and now he saw
    no reason to aid the press in their current efforts against the FBI.

    Mr. Wachtel said that he was aware that they could ask for
    materials under the Freedom of Information -Act and that they could sue
    for damages for improper activities by the Bureau, but
    they have decided
    that it would be
    more useful -to protect the privacy of the King" family -
    to attempt to resolve this matter without the publicity that would be
    attached to such requests Jor asuit. He asked what our general policy
    is concerning the release of information to Congress and our policy
    concerning the protection of privacy of individuals who might be
    mentioned
    in our files. -

    Itold him that the FBI is not in favor of making Bureau les
    available for review by members of Congress and that we are most con-
    cerned about the protection of personal privacy of individuals. I pointed
    out that inmost cases the FBI&#39;s poisition
    under the FOLA is that material
    should not -be released even in those situations where the Department is
    of the opinion that the material must be released pursuant to the statute.
    Assistant Attorney General Scalia supported me in that position and said _
    he well understood the policy of the FBI to be acareful concern for the.
    privacy of individuals . &#39;

    i&#39;. ong&#39;ressrnansaid
    Young
    that their interests could be served
    if they could be
    made aware of the nature of the information in Bureau
    files on King and he requested consideration be given to
    granting them

    Memorandum to Mr. &#39;


    Adams &#39;
    &#39;Freedom
    Re: of Information Act Request
    Concerning Martin Luther King, Jr. _

    access to file material concerning King. He explained that they could


    of
    not take appropriate steps to protect the privacy King and his surviving
    family against publication by Congressor leaks to the press unless they
    knew what the material was. Young suggested that it might be possible
    for any material on King to be transferred to the King Memorial Library
    to be held free from inspection for future historical purposes.
    I reminded
    Mr. Young that such a move would not protect the material from
    Congressional if
    subpoena and I suggested to him that material exists-
    in FBI files concerning King, it would have greater protection in the
    of
    custody of
    the FBI because the opportunities available for the
    Exec-utive&#39;Branch
    to deal on an equal basis with the Congress, and therefore
    of
    to deny access to the material in the face a Congressional subpoena.

    he
    Mr. Young agreed that of
    had not considered that aspect his
    -
    proposal.

    Mr. Wachtel asked for a specific timetable for the preparation


    of the Attorney Genera1&#39;s
    proposedguidelinesand asked whether any
    specific arrangements have been made to date with any of the Congressional.
    committees that might involve material on Assistant Attorney
    General Scalia told him that no specific timetable has been set for the
    of
    development guidelines but the Attorney General has indicated that they
    must be developed at an early date.
    . He said that no arrangements have
    &#39;
    been made with any Congressionalcommittees concerning le material
    on King.

    .
    Mr WachtelandCongressman
    Youngrequestedan opportunity
    to meet again to discuss this matter further and indicated that they would
    call and request another meeting. Mr. Scalia then advised that he would
    present to the Attorney General the request for them to have access to the
    if
    file material any exists on King and indicated that he would advise
    Mr. Wachtel by March 1&#39;7,of
    1975, the developments concerning the
    Attorney Genera1&#39;s
    proposed guidelines.

    Dear Mrs. King: _ -

    I will look forward to hearing from you concerning _


    extending the Federal Holiday Commission in support of
    &#39;
    Dr. King&#39;s Federal National Holiday.

    I read of your concern-with respect


    to the publicity
    regarding Congressman Walter Fauntroy. Public officials
    are constantly subjected to the scrutiny of thepress and
    the general public. As
    I am sure you appreciate, it would
    &#39;
    not be appropriate for
    me to make any kind of comment
    K . regarding any investigation
    or inquiry the FBI may have
    originated with respect to allegations about Congressman
    I-&#39;-IF-v - Fauntroy.
    &#39; &#39;

    I appreciate your confidence my


    in sense of fairness
    and justice and assure you that the FBI
    will conduct its
    &#39;
    business according to the rule of law and within the
    guidelines established by the Attorney General of the
    United States. .

    I hope you will continue to assist


    me in the
    recruiting of qualified minorities to be FBI employees. If
    you have any specific ideas along those lines,
    I would b
    grateful
    if youwould
    share
    them
