BH 157-352 The: KENNEDY men have taken over in Birmingham, with local and state authorities having» a minimum - of jurisdiction.' . oo | t" These statements are patently false ke misleading and they malign not only dedicated FBI agents but the community of Birmingham. No one has ‘taken over’ this city. We regret dissemination of such information about our city in any area of this state." It is obvious that “The Birmingham News," in this instance, rallied to our defense and in language which is probably as strong as any newspaper normally sees fit to use for comment with respect to. another newspaper, particularly in the same state. “The Birmingham News" endeavored to set the record straight. Yt is my recommendation that the Director 4 , jjimmediately send Mr.’ TOWNSEND a letter thanking him NB for his comments in the editorial. A copy of this letter is designated for Mobile for information as "The Andalusia Star-News" is located within the Mobile Division.
