Director, FBI
ago when he was designated os QD to
the then Chief of Police of Miami Beach, FLOYD TRUSOCOTT.
TAUSCOTT i from this position on August 18, 1953,
and of course lost out at the same time. He is now
unemployed and is attempting to ebtain an investigative
position in this area.
GR wae visibly disturbed by the allegations made
by GP during the slleged conversation in Mareh, 1949.
He said that it vase impossible fer him to understand why
would make such statements. He said several times during this
interview that he has alvays had the highest admiration for
the Director and the Bureau and that he always cooperated vith
the Agents of the Washington Field Office even though it vas —
compon knowledge that po eppesed to any such
cooperation. He mentioned that he was at one time assigned
to wu squad car in the 8th Precinct and that he felt it was
an bonor to have the responsibility for protecting the Director's
home. He indicated that on frequent occasions they would drive
by the Director's home just to be sure that everything was all
right. He aleo said that he vouldn't trust "as far as

cooperative during this interview and expressed considerable
anxiety that the allegations made by might effect our
feelings and relations toward him. He appeared to be very
sincere and forthright in his denial of the allegations mde
by QP and I bave no reason to believe that he was met
telling the truth based on his recollection of his dealings
