_ wi January 25, 1935 MEMOLANDOM POR THE DIHSCTOR With refersnce to your momorandus of January 14, addfovs:d to ne concerning 6 telephonic conversation with Mr. Ledd, relating to the possibilitic that the Chicago Americen has tepped the telephone wires of the Chicsgo “{vietor Office, I believe it would be edvisable to avoid eny refersnce to eny conten- pleted action or suapieion of a telephone tap in talking with the Chicrgo Office, since this procedure will undoubtedly put the newspeper on notica if the telephones ere tapped. It {s probuble thet if they tup one of the telephones, they have tapped them all, since moat of the inform tion to wh'ch they heave apparent access, if p¥tained us e result of « telephone tap, is Gigcussed on the confidenticl télepuones. I believe it might be civisatlie when Giscugsing this situation with anyone in the Chicego Office to hve then go outeide of tue “nlosgo Office and cell the Division fron a pay station. In thie regard, wa wieht discus. with the Chicego Office for « period of severel days by telephone the apprehension of Alvin Kerpie, neking it sppear thet he 46 acturlly in custody and of course if there ia eny look then, the source of the information would be obwious, Respectfully, gE.
