               MEMORANDUM      FOR:   Director of Security      4 May 1967

               SUBJECT                MORGAN,   Edward  P.




                     1. I first met Ed Morgan in about 1952 or 1953 through our
               association with the Society of Former Agents of the FBI. Both Ed
               and I served on the Executive Committee of the Washington Chapter
               of that Society in 1953-54 and both Ed and I were interested in having
               the Ex-Agents National Convention in Washington, D. C. At that time
               Jim McInerny was  President of the Washington Chapter.

                    2.  I went overseas in 1955 and I have seen Ed possibly four or
               five times since my return in 1957. While I have been active in the
               Society, Ed Morgan has not been. The last time I saw Morgan was
               in January 1967 at an Ex-Agents dinner. All of my association with
               Morgan has been through the Ex-Agents, and I have never been in
               contact with him socially other than through the Society.

                    3.  The following information is hearsay concerning Ed Morgan.
               I have reason to believe that all the information is true, but I do not
               know it on a first hand basis. Ed Morgan served in the Bureau from
               1940 to 1947. He is a tall, personable, nice looking individual and in
               the Bureau he ended up in the Training Division. He used to give
               lectures to the new Agents classes and the National Academy classes,
               and through his speaking ability he came to the attention of Director,
               J. Edgar Hoover.  At the end of the war Morgan left the Bureau to
               enter private law practice.

                    4.  According to rumor, Morgan entered the field of Federal
               Communications  practice. His firm became well known in this field
               and the firm name is Welch, Mott & Morgan. Rumor  is that he obtained
               TV franchises for a number of oil men in the Middle West, and took
               his pay in oil leases. He made a-great deal of money in a short period
               of time and is reportedly worth at least a million dollars.
