a i Mr. Nathan... ¥ JOHN EDGAR HOOVER } = 4 + Toleon DIRECTOR ". , ~ - Clean... _.... Bicision of Inbestigation ‘tan 7 YW. B. Department of Justice | vm Bashington, B. C. yovenber 13, 1933. MEUORANDUL FOR THE DIRECTOR, Sunday. night at ebout 9:00 P. M. Agent Trainor called from Kansas City. He advised that they had received a report from the Birminghan office which indicated that that office had located Louise®Connors, who is under indictment in the Kansas City case for obstructing justice; that they had telked to the Birmingham office by telephone after receiving the report and Trainor had contributed his suggestion that the woman they had loceted eat Memphis, Tennessee, is, in fact, Louise Connors and suggested that she be apprehended the first thing this morning. Trainor said he had talked the matter over first with Turrou, who 1s there, and that he and Turrou sre entirely satisfied that the Birmingham office has the right woman and that they, further, felt that it would be extrenely dangerous to wait any longer hoping thet she would make contact with any of the male fugitives in this case and therefore had suggested her prompt apprehension. égent Trainor also stated he thought thet much could be accomplished if Agent Turrou could interrogate Louise Connors at the time of her apprehension as after talking to the Birminghen office he felt that there wes probably no one at thet office sufficiently familizr with the backgroud of the entire case to ingelligently interrogete her. I told Trainor, uho wes acting in the absence of both Mr. Conroy and Mr. Spear, that shen they received word at Kansas City that this wonan hed been epprehended at Memphis unless Turrou had received instructions from the Director he should proceed promptly to Memphis. It is expected that the woman will be apprehended sometime this morning before noon and the Birmingham office is to notify Kansas City promptly upon the cpprehension, as well as, of course, this office. Turrou will proceed to Nemphis in accordance with these instructions then that word is received at Kansas City unless we send instructions to the contrary. I believe that this would be a good move, particularly in view of the fact | that Turrou is more or less marking time until we get some definite word , from California.
