ULI con eens | bower. Lester oer November 10, 1933. oo °- MEJORANDUH FOR THE DIRECTOR. Agent in Charge Conrey called from Kansas City and stated thet he had called the Oklahoma City office and ascertained thet Colvin was still sick and probably would not be in a condition to report to Kansas City wntil Mondey morning. He suggested that in the meantime Special Agent Andersen might interview Bailey and Bates at the penitentiary as Bailey had indicated previously to Andersen . that he might have something to teli him after he "cooled off", Agent in Cherge Conroy stated he would also like to use them in the intervening days on the lead on Underhill. Incidentally on the Underhill netter he stated that the reason they did not contact him the other night was because the hotel which they had surrounded had been locked up due to the fact that the County Judge came into the hotel intoxicated and the hotel people closed for the night so that they would protect the Judge. The understanding wes thet Underhill would follow his contact man into the hotel but the contact man wes never able to get: into it because of its being closed. Conroy stated he was still in touch with this source of informetion and felt that they might be able to neke something more of it. PLO Ae I told Conroy that I would give his message to you relative to the use of Andersen and Turrou but I thought it would be inadvisable te use thea on the Underhill matter in view of our desire to have then renain under cover; that, however, I felt it would be satisfactory for Andersen to interview Bailey and unless he, Conroy, received word from the Director or the writer this afternoon he might assume that thet would be 0. K. and that Turrou and Andersen should remain over in Kansas City until Monday when Colvin would arrive. Respectfully, MWilran L~ ve. We Hughes. COPY FILEDIN ZZ ¢ REOORDED NOV 14 1933
