HOOVER Several days ago ypu sent The photostat f a story entitled “al“Capone 'sfLife in the a P Bo74 whitch he awe Penitentiary ® » Which had been + turned over our Special Agent in our New York Office. In this connection, I understand that your Bureau has made some investigation during the past two years as to Al Capone's conduct while at Leavenworth, in an attempt to ascertain whether or not he had been able to bribe any of the officers. I think it would be a good idea for someon your Bureau to check the manuscript carefully to see whether or not there are any leads therein, which would fit into the investigation which you have been making. Have you any idea as to the identity of the writer of the story?
