~,i:y Dear 1.T. President:-The accompanyin[ new~-~aper cliDJing does not

tell the "newa behind the headlines 'f • ~f you knew t~e true story of this Girl's life; how she Viall a child from a broken home and souioht r. 1i veli­hood in several countries (Ganada,United states and Cermany) , you would understand the so-called "treasonable acts" were false and dug up by 8

minori ty ;:;rou:~ which sought reveni:e on "one who BJlolce the truth" and it stung them so dee,ly they were blind with madness to get even.

As an InternationiUfigu,re, who found herself in Gern:liny when,:orld -:iar II broke out, she beeame ::.~ German 01 tlzen and \'i8.S employed to work: on the German radio. In one of her comxentaries she stQted.a stinging truth which none ot us can denYi -"Soosevelt and his ;rews got Unl ted states in the ;::::>.r against Germany." This,iaa feet cnd could have been stated several ways (since TIar with Germ&ny was inevitable).i.e. it could have been st<::ted,-"?oosevelt c.nd the Bri tiah ~ot .dlIleriea in the Gar against Ge~y. I The fact that she mentioned a Qertain minority Crou, was the reason she (a German Citizen)wus broU€~t from Germany to ITashlngton D.C. to face a Nazi £an& of SQum and paid-otf accusers.

All this has laased now and she is a'out to 8e released. My great­est concern and tear for the satety ot this ,erson when she ia released. The least Our Country .can do tor har is to see that sha has pollee as_art to her plaee ot employment.

It an enraged group can kldna, a man :f':rom .d.rgentlne and bring him to justioe, there ls no assurance that this girl would not meet a similar ~

fate. If the U.S. Parole Board (through their offiolal action) haTe seen tlt to state that "she has paid her de~t to Society" who is there to oontinu. outlawed practices? An-eye-for-an-eye •• has long been outlawed.

God forbid that any race or reli6::ion in ~'.mer1ca could be at odds with any opposite ~rou~ within its boarders to mushroom to i:an&ster proportions. Since we liTe By the law we would expect all persons to abide by its decisions,-but recent a.tions in the South have left alarming soars. Still we pray that they might speedily see the light.

I believe you will do what is right ~d pro,er.

Gratefully yours,

Dear Sir:

Attention Mr. Alexander M. Campbel1-Your reply of July 18. to mine of June 28

certainly didn't answer any of the points set out in my letter.

You speak ofl _ :coming appeal. as if this alone is important. present comfort 1s important to her and to those' of us Who love her. I think it is sadistically cruel to keep anyone contined a second ~er in that district jail, when there are cooler accommodations as near as Acco'qwm, to say' nothing of the friend­lier atmosphere and the dozens of opportunities available there for one 18 stud1' and advancement. Which ~s entitled to enjoy_ Mildred vas taken to Accoquan short~ after Easter, but was returned to the jail about nine ~8 later. Why!

No ... I happen to know that sevoral prisoners are allowed butter for the1r meals. I think'

ialso needs butter, and lots of it. even if the jail phy'e1cian doesn't agree with me. There are other things she can do without, but I know you can make arrangements for her to have butter at her meals. Even if it means our pqing for it.

t do not speak on~ for JllY'selt' when I say the Justice Department should have a houss clean­ing. All Y'OU need do is pick up ~ of the latest papera.lIB8&zinea or tune in to the news broad­ca.at. to see ... hat I mean. Why' should bond be denied -' and granted to Jud1 th Coplan 1 Even if" '~"ere guilty of the crime she is ehsrged -vi th, it -couldn' t poBs1 bly me&sure up to thi. miserable woman's vickedness.

needs dental wrk done and her eyes examined and !wuld ver,r much like to bring her home to have these things done. I am 8Ure there are some of you there who are more interested in clean justice than climbing at someone elae e:r.­pence. so don't just push th1e letter to one side. There 18 mnch 7cu can do and if you don I t do it. you wnt be 1"uU'111tng ,.our dntiea. 1. r8lll8.in

ATTENTION: Mr. Alexander Campbell, Assistant Attorney General.

I have your letter or June 15th, 1949, which was in reply to cry letter of June 8th, 1949, and note that you say that the information contained in DY communication is receiving careful consideration.

I am not satisfied TIith your reply inasmuch as the Federal Bureau o~ Investigation in New York has had this information

. since early March, i'Thich information must surely have reached you long before my letter of June 8th, and which, by'now, should have brought concrete action from your department in Washington~

I repeat, I do not like,and most assuredly, do not seek any publicity attendant to this case, but now I have reached t~ point where I no longer care one way or the other.

First and roremost, I am an Am0rican, and do not intend to sit idly by while this traitor Haupt is at large. If you do not do something about bringing him to justice at once, I shall take this story to every metropolitan newspaper in ......... New York and I am sure they will be very happy to help bring ..r - J-this man to justice. ''! ' Please give me a definite answer to the question in my first letter berore I take further action •

One of these letters took me dorm to,:ashington about a month ago. _i.t that time I toolc the matter up rrith Col. Reed and Senator Bricker's offices. They both seemed genuinely surprised. The Senator's office offered to make a thorough investigation if Col.
