THURSDAY, SEPT. 22, 1966 Remarks by St. Louis County Supervisor Lawrence K. Roos Before National Convention of Former FBI Agents Khorassan Room, Chase-Park Plaza Hotel ~ It is a real pleasure for me to greet you in behalf of the people and government of St. Louis County. Ever since its founding in 1928 under its present Director J. Edgar Hoover, the FBI has been an indispensible tool in our nation- wide war on crime. As an official of local government, I am especially appreciative of the vital contributions which the FBI makes to local as well as national and international law enforcement. The FBI Uniform Crime Reporting service has enabled all local units to accurately compare crime rates with similar areas throughout the Nation. The Identification Division assists local and State police officials in the quick capture of suspects accused of major crimes. The National FBI Training Academy from which seven of our County Police Department officers have graduated provides extremely valuable training for top police officials in the latest techniques and procedures in law enforcement. The trememdous personal sacrifice which you gentlemen have made during your careers as special agents for the FBI cannot be measured. By placing your lives daily on the firing line to protect our national security and our personal safety you have served your Nation well. Your continued interest in the FBI through participation in this convention indicates that you are still interested in the *N0ftt*r sums liMCLOSURK V7<j> 29- HG? 2-2-2-2 improvement of our law enforcement capabilities. This continued involvement by you is especially important as our population continues to grow and major crimes soar at an alarming rate. Last year, as you may know, there were nearly 12 major crimes committed per 1000 people in our Nation. In St. Louis County alone some 7.5 crimes per 1000 persons were committed. Full coopera- between the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the State Highway >1, the County Police Department, and the municipal departments *i4£iin the County is absolutely essential if we are to reduce these ^(Upking statistics and if we are to win our war against crime. And so, in welcoming this great convention to the St. Louis area, I would like to congratulate you on your interest in law enforce- ment and to urge us all to rededicate ourselves to a coordinated and concerted attack upon crime and lawlessness throughout our community and Nation. ###### Office id tlje £&&txx&g Cicncral Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. November 21, 1966 Gale **»"" Tele.

Last July, former SA q harles M^^Bcyfie (EOD as SA inj services ] and resigned in[ contacted Mr. DeLoach to advise that the Society of Former SAs would like to have the Director speak at the 1967 Convention.

He hoped that the Director might be able to address that luncheon meeting; however, by memorandum dated July 12, 1966, it was recommended and approved that the Director not accept the invitation to speak at the Society's 1967 Convention. b6 s?'i>. V . RECENT DEVELOPMENT: r>-i u3 Late last week, former SA Noone again contacted Mr. DeLoach to advise that the Society of Former SAs would like to present a special award to the Director at the September 28 luncheon meeting of its 1967 Convention. According to Noone, the exact nature of the award has not yet been determined by the Society; however, the Society is hopeful that the Director can personally attend the September 28 luncheon in order tp accept the award and honor the | members with acceptance remarks.

Bureau files do, in fact, reflect numerous instances support of the Bureau and the Director on the part of the Society of Former SAs --as evidenced in Resolutions commendatory of the FBI and the Director which the Society has passed and has sent to the President and the Attorney General, and as also evidenced of active in the Society's action in commissioning sculptor Philip Kraczkowski to do a life-size bust of the Director in connection with his 40th Anniversary in 1964. RECOMMENDATION: Since the Society of Former SAs desires to specially honor the Director at its September 28, 1967, luncheon at the Shoreham Hotel, the Director may desire to consider this renewed invitation for him to attend this luncheon where he would receive an I award from the Society and would give acceptance remarks. /*»' OPTIONAL FOIM NO, Ip MAT I Ml (OITION O** <MN.

They consider this luncheon in the Director's honor to be the principal event of the Convention and, while they recognize that the Director's commitments have made it necessary for him to previously indicate his unavailability to attend this noon luncheon on Thursday, September 28th at the Shoreham Hotel, they would consider the entire "homecoming" Convention to be an outstanding success if the Director could just drop by for a few minutes to accept their pledge of respect and loyalty. Mr. Noone sincerely requests the Director's favorable consideration of this final request. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. In view of the obviously very warm regard with which Mr. Noone and his Committee hold the Director, and in recognition Of the assurances that only Society members of proven loyalty to the Director will be in attendance, it is recommended that favorable consideration be given to the request to permit small groups of members and their families to observe the fine new Quantico training facilities and that the Director accede to Mr. Noone 's respectful request that he drop by for a few minutes at the September 28th, noon luncheon to be held by the Society in his honor at the Shoreham Hotel.

Suggested procedures for scheduling Bureau tours-are shy being indicated. „- > i of the 1967 convention, has on for the Director's kindappreciation several occasions expressed deepest ness in making possible these visits. He has indicated that the response from the 2, 000 members expected in Washington during the convention has been unparalleled. Noone has advised that a total of about 400 people consisting of /£$&&& and their families had already signified the intention themselves of the trip to Quantico. Noone noted that he and the I of availing arrangeother officers of the Society would be governed exclusively by any C. M. Noone, chairman or schedule convenient to the Bureau that we wish to draw up.

This will be prepared by our Quantico caterer and will consist of fried chicken, cold cuts, salad, baked beans, beverages, etc. In the event of jaain, Mr. Sloan, through the cooperation of the Marine Corps, has provided/serving the luncheon at (this group on Wednesday, September -Peaty Hall tun Uic ranges 27, 1967. LuncJuKUTbe^ proposed that the group be given the opportunity to view the site of our new academy and to hear a description of the new facilities. Thereafter, special firearms demonstrations Following luncheon it is including the practical pistol course, running man target, dueling course, skeet shooting as well as a defensive tactics demonstration and novelty shooting will be put on for the members of the group. It is expected that the special firearms program should be finished by about 3:30 p. m. thus enabling the buses to return to Washington in time to avoid the heavy evening traffic. thf ev-A gg>n* g * gypgns^ will be available during the afternoon, as well as restroom facilities for the ladies. We also plan to have one of the nurses from our Health Service accompany the group to Quantico to be readily available if her services should become necessary. The female clerical staff from the Academy will also be on hand for whatever assistance they might be should the need arise. Soft drinks, i,t SPECIAL BUREAU TOURS: We have been advised that a large number of children are expected to be with their parents at this homecoming convention, all of whom are thrilled and excited about the prospect of taking the FBI tour. Other special activities are being planned for these young people, and Mr. Noone has indicated that some 250 to 300 would like to visit the FBI on Thursday, September 28, 1967. Again, they will be governed by our wishes in scheduling, and arrangements will be made to specially handle these groups at various times during the course of the day. The children on tours will be divided into small manageable groups and will be conducted that certain also be will We of our facilities by top clerical tour leaders. the to visit their of they receive booklets, targets, and brass as souvenirs FBI. (CONTINUED -2- - OVER) b6 I I to Wick Memorandum Re: Society of Former Special Agents of the FBI In addition to the children, hundreds of ex -Agents are also anxious to come down to the Bureau for visits but since this will be a working convention and will include numerous seminars the scheduling of these visits will be contingent upon what free time they have. In order to facilitate these arrangements, it is proposed that we assign one of our tour representatives to the hotel on Thursday and Friday, September 28 and 29, to coordinate scheduling with the Tour Room. You will recall that several years ago with the Director's approval, such a procedure was initiated during the American Bar Association Convention with marked success. Our representative was allocated space at the convention desk, and was able to answer questions on the spot and schedule tours of the Bureau with a minimum of delay. Mr. Noone has indicated that he would be most pleased to provide our representative with every assistance at the hotel. RECOMMENDATION: That the proposed arrangements for the visit to Quantico and the handling of special tours of the Bureau for the Ex-Agents Society approved. / fM' u -3- cps ^& June 6, !/ 1967 Mr. Suljivnn , Mr. Tdvrl | j b6 Mr. Trolter [Trie.

In addition to the impressive speech by the Director, the great feeling of warmth, high regard, and great affection of the former Special Agents for the Director come through in a most impressive manner, even on the recording. The over-all affect is tremendous. After hearing the recording, Mr. Tolson expressed the view that the recording should be considered for playing before New Agents and In-Service classes, and he instructed that his views be relayed to the Director for consideration. Pursuant to the approved by the Director, copies of the recording will be prepared and used for the purpose suggested by Mr. Tolson.
