with which he iG ccnnectcd or his subversive potcntialiti~s

lubject active in a subversive or~~ni7.ation is not merely
an i~olatcd individual but is a part of'an oraa%lization 01
which the purposes arc oppo~cd to the best interests or the
U. S. An individual'. loyalty to a subversive orr,anization
and the principles tllercof is a prirn~ry factor to take into
eonsidcr~tj':n in evaluating his potential danl!crOll~ncss;[ho\"ever,
regardless of evidence of subversive affilia.tion, all
evidence developed durint the course of a security investieatioD
must be carefully weighed for the purpose of determining
whether the subject's activities depict him ~s a potenti~lly
daneerous individu~l in ti~c of a national emergency. Faotors

of the new left 'mO':I'f1Jent as a subversive force dedicated to the complete
destruction 01 the tradltionJ.! values of our democratic society presents
the Dureau With :In uilprecedented chaI1en~e in the security fic.1d,
Althou~h the 111:1'1 Il'H hJ.s no definable ideolo~y ot its own, it docs
have stron~ :'II:tr:,isl, e:,istentJalist, nihilist and :tn:trchlst ove:tones.
While mere I1lc'lllilership in a new left group is not sullicient to estlblish
that an indi\'ldu:d is a potential threat to the internal security I)f the
United St:ttes, it IroUst be recognized that many indIviduals affiliated
with the new lelt 1l10n~ment do, in fact, en:-:a~e in violence or unla'vrul
activities, and their potenti:tl d:tnc:erousness is dearly demonstrated
by their statements, conouct and actions.
The Dureau has recently noted that in many inst;lnce~
security ill\'cstic:ations of these Individuals arc not oeinc: initiated,
In some cases. subiects are n0t lJeln!~ recommenaed for inclu.;ion on
the Security Index merely because no membership in :t b:tsic revolutiorury
organization could be established. Since UIC new left is basically
an:trchist, man\' ot Ul!: leadin~ activists in it are not member~; of any
basic revolution:1I'v c;roup, It should be borne in mind that evenH a
z~bjectrs memlJershi:' ;'1 ;1. "l1h\'crsive or!!:tnization cannot be oraven,
his inclusion on the Security' Index may oHen be justilied because oi
activities which establish his anarchistic tendencies, in this re~ard,
you should constant!v bear in mind Ula! the public statements. the
writings and the !c:lciershiIJ activities of subjects of securitv investigations
which establish them as :inarchists 2.re proper areas at

WiUl the ullill1:tte vic\\' oj includin~ them on the Security Index. It is
entirely possible. therefore, tJlat a subject without any organizational
affiliation can qualify for the Security Index by virtue of his public pronouncements
and acli\'itles which establish his rejection of law and orc!er and
reveal him to be a potential threilt to the secunty of tJw United States.
It is equally important to understand that mere dissent and
opposition to Governlllental policies pursued in a le!:al constit1ltion:t1
manner arc not sufficient to warrant inclusion in the Serunt'.' Index, You

DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION,
ATLANTIC CITY, NEW JERSEY
AUGUST 25, 1964
The following information is a summary of data which
has come to our attention during last night and early this morning,
August 25, 1964:
MARTIN LUTHER KING
A highly reliable source advised at midnight, last
night, that Reverend King received a call from [ )
in New York City. King said that he was very encouraged by the
way things were going; that there had been no demonstrations by
the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party (~ITDP) and none were
expected from that source.
As you were previously advised, [._ ) had indicated
that he was not planning to come to Atlantic City; however,
King requested last night that [ 1 should come to the Convention
and [ 1 said that he would be down, and that he
would arrive in Atlantic City sometime during the morning of
August 25, 1964. King then told [ ) that there were enough
minority votes to bring the seating of the MFDP to the floor of
the Convention.
.,:
At 10:40 a.m., August 25, 1964, we were advised that
I was in Reverend King's suite in Atlantic City.
[ I contacted [ ) of the MFDP at
the Gem Hotel, and [ I inquired whom Reverend King should
talk to this morning. [ I said she thought King
should see Governor Endicott Peabody of Massachusetts, Mayor
Robert Wagner of New York City, Governor Edmund G. (Pat) Brown
of California, Mayor Richard Daley of Chicago, and Governor
John W. King of New Hampshire. The purpose of King's seeing
these individuals is to urge them to call the White House
directly and put pressure on the White House in behalf of the
MFDP.

715
MORNING SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES, DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION,
ATLANTIC CITY, NEW JERSEY, AUGUST 25, 1964
At this same time [ 1 from Reverend King's
staff spoke to [ 1 of the MFDP and told her that
the MFDP delegates should not think in terms of being a minority
but should regard themselves as the only representatives in
Mississippi. [ I then told [ I that, "Off the record,
of course, you know we will-accept the Green compromise proposed."
This refers to the proposal of Congresswoman Edith Green of
Oregon.
A [ of the Washington State Delegation
then spoke to [ 1 of Reverend King's staff.
[ J apologized to J because she was unable
to get her group to come to the forefront for the MFDP. [
J commented that the Johnson Administration is putting
pressure on everybody and that people who were previously friendly
are getting harder to find.
BOARDWALK DEMONSTRATIONS
Approximately 120 demonstrators belonging to the
Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) and the Student Non-Violent
Coordinating Committee (SNCC) spent all night on the boardwalk
in front of Convention Hall. This was a silent vigil and there
were no incidents.
RALLY SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY NIGHT, AUGUST 25, 1964,
8 P.M., PRICE MEMORIAL CHURCH, ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.
At last night's SNCC and CORE Vigil outside Convention
Hall handouts were being distributed announcing that a civil
rights rally presenting Dick Gregory and Caleb Peterson would be
held at Price Memorial A.M.E. Church, 525 Atlantic Avenue, at
8 p.m. Coverage of this rally has been arranged.
PROGRESSIVE LABOR MOVEMENT
We have been informed by reliable New York sources
that a group of Progressive Labor Movement (PLM) members is
traveling to Atlantic City on Wednesday, August 26, 1964. Selfadmitted
Communist Party (CP) member [ 1
is heading this group. [ I was the leader of the student
group which spent this past summer in Cuba defying the
State Department ban.

REVEREND MARTIN LUTHER KING
Shortly before 4 p.m. this afternoon, August 25, 1964,
1 of the California Delegation asked King to meet with
the California delegates at 7 p.m. August 25, 1964. Previously
King agreed to meet with the New York State delegates at 7:30
p.m. tonight.
MFDP leaders have asked Reverend King to call Governor
Egan of Alaska and Governor Burns of Hawaii in an attempt to
enlist their support. According to the MFDP spokesmen, the Negro
Mississippi Party needs these two states plus California and
New York for the roll call tonight.

SYMPATHETIC PICKETING
FBI sources report that CORE has been undertaking picketing
in several cities urging support for the MFDP. A group of 25
demonstrators in Chicago, for example, picketed the Morrison Hotel
urging that the Illinois Delegation support the Negro Mississippi
delegates. Similar picketing was conducted by CORE in St. Louis
yesterday.

It was also disclosed that they are going to be
watching to find out whether the staff of the Sergeant-atArms
will be checking badge numbers with the names printed
on the badges and they are going to be sure that the
gatekeepers are not discriminating against Negroes. If
such discrimination takes place, they plan to make a strong
protest and demand that Convention officials check every
individual's badge as they enter the hall.
Sometime this afternoon, [ 1, et aI,

their intentions but they were vague as to details.

MARTIN LUTHER KING - [
Shortly after noon [ ) talked to a man who
was trying to get in touch with Martin Luther King.
This man wanted King to talk to MFDPdelegates at the
Union Temple Baptist Church at 1 p.m., this afternoon.
Congresswoman Green is supposed to make a talk there and

information from Communists.
We are unable to locate a memorandum of the telephone call
