Curt: I'm not aware that H.L. Hunt "held JBS meetings in his home" or
that he even sup****ted the JBS. However, his son, Nelson Bunker Hunt,
is on the JBS National Council.
I've seen no credible data regarding any JBS connection (as an
organization) to the assassination of JFK.
However, some individual members/sympathizers of the JBS were involved
in preparing and publi****ng the nasty "Wanted For Treason" flyer that
appeared in Dallas and Robert Alan Surrey and Joseph Grinnan (JBS
members) were involved in the famous anti-JFK newspaper ad "Welcome
Mr. Kennedy" that was published in the Dallas Morning News on the day
of JFK's assassination.
A lot of false or highly suspect data about this matter has been
circulated by Harry J. Dean who claims he was an FBI "undercover
agent" or informant within the Birch Society. However, Dean's
assertions about his background are fabrications.
Recently, I received an FBI do***ent which pertains to an inquiry
about a column by James Horwitz published on page 2 of the 3/16/77
issue of the Las Virgenes (CA) Independent Valley News.
The column re****ted on their "exclusive interview" with Harry Dean
during which he repeated his claims about his alleged association with
the FBI as an undercover operative or informant from 1960-1965.
The Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI's Los Angeles field office
(Robert E. Gebhardt) responded to an inquiry about Dean's assertions
and he forwarded a copy of his 4/1/77 reply to James K. Coffin, the
Publisher of the Las Virgenes Independent Valley News. You may obtain
a copy of the column, the inquiry, and the reply by requesting FBI Los
Angeles field office file 100-59001, serial #1258.
Here is the pertinent excerpt of Gebhardt's reply:
"In the interest of accuracy, I must advise you that Harry Dean has
never been an undercover operative of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation, has never been an informant of this Bureau, and has
never been instructed to perform any act on behalf of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. Furthermore, I can tell you that the FBI has
never investigated the John Birch Society. I am bringing the above
information your attention. You might consider furni****ng this
information to the readers of your column."
