Worried Citizens
Sheriff Howard Durley, Ventura County / California, writes to J. Edgar Hoover, April 24, 1936
"At a recent speech here at this County Dr. Einstein was referred to as being a communist and to be furthering communist activities in this country.

Several of his admirers in this County have approached me and asked me to establish if possible definetely whether or not there is any basis for the statements. These particular people are very good Americans and do not care to allow their children to idolize him if he is of this character."
