Metcalf, Administrative Assistant to the Director of the FBI, by 6SC Staff Members I advised that at the beginning, I was simply tearing them up and putting them in the confidential trash basket, but due to the quantity of it, I was borrowing confidential trash baskets and then we started getking the big trash bags and that someone from Washington Field would come over to get it for disposal, They questioned about whether any of it was in boxes which were sealed and then picked up, and I told them that I remembered the bags and hava a recollection that probably not having bags handy, the material was torn up and placed in boxes, as I recall, trying to arrange the material in the box so as to make it more compact and more room to add more material for destruction. In regard to the personal files which want to Me. Hoover's house, I was asked if I recalled how thia was done, and I told them I was sorry, but I simply could not recall. was also asked 1£ there was a time when we said it was done and over, tha: the job had been completed, I told them I could not say that it actually came up, thd it was strictly o matter of being in shock, trying to clean out after someone has passed away, to make room fer someone else to come in. Lowas asked whether f had ever been out to Hr. Hoover's home, particularly after his death. TI told them T had not beén to Mr. Hoover's home since his death; however, when Miss Gandy was on leave and I was covering her desk, each Saturday a pouch of work was taken out to Mr. Hoover's home and I merely went to the house to deliver the pouch, but did not enter.
