5OAPR2 1967 ) ummit, New Je April 13, 1967 President Jghneon | Washington, D.0. . ° Dear Sir: I find the following opiniones quite prévalent my friende: WAR ON CRIME fof Within Me United States this ie our most important problem. Yet, the-Supreme Court is not willing to give the proper author- ities the tools necegsary to meet the aituation. This is a re- pulsive condition in the eyes of most of the public, I believe. I continually hear stories of how the police are no longer willing to do what the one time thought was right and, inatead now "would rather switch than fight! The public is not afraid of a Police State aa thia could be rectified should we ever veer in that direction. We are now more afraid of gangeter rule than police rule. As the gangsters continue to be more affluent, they oan readily take over the police, and thua become even stronger in the Government. We believe that wire tapring should be readily permitted by et least the Federal Government as they best see fit to combat tnat which 1s wrong. Should 1t mean that some harmless private conversations be overheard, we are willing to accept it as a small price to pay for battle, This is, now a way of life. How can the Supreme Court be made to underatand the will of the people and weigh thie against the damage that its being done? ADAM POWELL im The only way we im) would like to see him seated would be ina Federal jail! ! | f ; ag 4 . ‘ co; Senator C.P.Case } oy, ( . H.A.Williame ok Congresswoman F.P.
