ce ' damaary 29, 1960 The Federal Bureau of Investigation Washington, D.C. Gentlemen: | . Dest he Oaduc Aons You have probably had this question asked so many times but I mst ask it. My son and four of his boy friends, who are 15, were watching "The Untouchables" last night. Again the subject came up that Eliot Ness was not an F,B.I. man. My son and his boy friends had been to Washington over the Christmas holidays with a group from school, Naturally, they toured the F.B.I, building, which we also did last year, when our family went there. Being curious, they asked their guide if Ness was an F. Bel. man and he said he was not. I don't mind being wrong, but I was sure when he came to Cleveland, he had been an F.B.I. man and our : Cleveland paper mentioned it not too long ago” on the television page — that he was. So, please — . whether I am wrong or right -- just ‘settle it and give us the truth -~ was Ness an F.B.I. man. And, while I am writing you, is it possible for my son to have one of the targets which one of your men has shot at. Both times he was in Washington, he was unable to get it and he is at the age where he just has to have it hung in his room, I am sure one of your men would not mind a little practice and could send one to hin, | I would appreciate it very much. T enjoyed the tour through the F.B.I, when I was there and 4 highly -recommend it to anyone who is going to Washington. The men are very courteous and make it very interesting. So thank you very mech for taking the time to answer a letter, which might not seem important to you, but I would like to nave at settled, because cach time the program comes on, it comes up.
