A. Anti-War Demonstrations
Washington, D.C., November 9-15, 1969
On October 27, 1969, Special Agents (SAS) of the
FBI observed JERRY RUBIN and the subject hold a press
conference at the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C.
At this press conference HOFFMAN indicated that the
reason he appeared in Washington on that evening was to challenge
the men responsible for the anti-riot law and their trial, to
a fair fight. He identified these individuals as "JOHN BUTCHER
MITCHELL, ADOLF HITLER JULIUS HOFFMAN, and SPIRO AGNEW,"
HOFFMAN also stated that after the mass march on the White
House on November 15, 1969, they planned to march down
Constitution Avenue to the Department of Justice at which
time demands would be made that all conspiracy trials be
estopped. HOFFMAN reiterated the fact that the theme of the
march on November 15, 1969, would be to "Stop the War, Stop
the Trial,”
"The Quicksilver Times," a local underground type
newspaper published in washington D.C., in its edition of
October 29, to November 9, 1909, contained an article on Page
4, concerning a press conference held by ABBIE HOFFMAN and
JERRY RUBIN at the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C.,
on October 27, 1969.
This article read in part as follows:
"The two joy boys of the hippie roadshow, ABBIE
HOFFMAN and JERRY RUBIN played @ one-night stand in the
street theater outside the Department of Justice on Monday
evening, October 27,. ..
"HOFFMAN and RUBIN are calling for a march of
500,00 people immediately after the Mobilization's program,
from the Ellipse down Constitution Avenue to the ‘Department
of Injustice’ where they will hold a massive 'free-in' and
demand a stop of the trial and the war.
