Hoover Aims Sharp Words at Clark in Memo Rivalry
FBI Director J Edgar Hoover labels Ramsey Clark the worst attorney general he has known in 45 years. He calls Clark a jellyfish and a softie while praising John Mitchell and Warren Burger. The remarks follow Clark’s critique of FBI crime control and Kennedy’s push on organized crime. Hoover recounts disputes over hiring standards and the tone of authority, including a confrontation with Kennedy and Johnson’s stance to Stand by your guns. Also notes on a 1970s flower festival and Santa Barbara SBA workshop dates and venues.
