~4 t wr lureau of dnuestiga.. United States Departiuient of Justice Detroit - Michigan August 7, 1943 MEMORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR Re: Expenses of Police Paid by Elliot ess to Detroit b7eE He informed me tha b7 rp) expenses, 4 s transportation, were being paid by ELLIOTT NESS. He stated also thet (REED oxen ses were being paid by NESS. He indicated that he was furnished with a government transportation request which he carried to the station and found acceptable. ae an individual room on the train, and I feel b? t- that it is entirely possible that NESS is paying a large number of officials! expenses to the Detroit Convention. He is probably b10 doing this on the basis of the fact that social protection is one of the items for discussion on the program, and he is probably taking advantage of this situation by having their expenses paid to the Detroit Convention to hear and participate in this item on the program. Of course, for everyones present there is a potential vote for his stooge, MIKE MORRISEY. Recommemiations: 1) That through appropriate contacts, this matter be brought to the attention of Mr. FRINKYEATS, . Assistant Comptroller General. ; i 2) That it discreetly be brought to the attention of . the House Appropriations Committee through proper | iad channels. {> * fe HD stn, PP po [52ST 4"
