In about 1954, or year of the Oklahoma Centennial,

the McGuire Sisters (DOROTHY, CHRISTINE, and PHYLLIS) were

under contract to appear in Oklahoma City, professionally, in

connection with the Oklahoma celebration.

Just before their

appearance CHRISTINE contracted a "strep" throat and immed-

iately returned to New York City for treatment.

The management

in Oklahoma thought the McGuire sisters had breached theil

contract and threatened legal action. U

LOWELL WILLIAMSON, by this time,

was married to

DOROTHY MC GUIRE, and in an effort to save his wife and her

sisters legal difficulty WILLIAMSON contacted MARTIN and

requested him to attempt to straighten out the matter in

Oklahoma.

MARTIN was successful in making a satisfactory

settlement in behalf of the MC GUIRE sisters and was subse-

quently engaged by them to handle the writing of all special

contracts they entered into in the entertainment field..(u)

As result of this legal business MARTIN has become

personally acquainted with the MC GUIRE sisters and some of

their friends.

Some months ago, at the request of WILLIAMSON,

MARTIN was in New York City and

had dinner with the MC GUIRE

Sisters, along with WILLIAMSON. MARTIN, at the request of

WILLIAMSON, was supposed to discreetly suggest to PHYLLIS that

she should stop keeping company with subject, who until just

recently was known to WILLIAMSON and the other two sisters as

SAM MOONEY, and SAN FLOYD. MARIIN made the effort, but as he

anticipated it did little good as PHYLLIS would not listen to

his admonitions.l.

In the

mantine, WILLIAMSON was able to determine

some of the background of

subject and on one recent occasion

declared in the presence of subject that he did not approve

of the activities of subject, whereupon subject commented in

substance he was not interested in what WILLIAMSON approved

of.

(u)

WILLIAMSON has in the past expressed some fear of

the subject, especially as it concerns his children and

wife, pointing out his wife is away from him a great deal

and in view of her contact with PHYLLIS would be at the

mercy of subject should he decide to cause her bodily harm.

On About Saturday, May 25, 1963, WILLIAMSON, who now

lives in Calgary, Alb. Canada,

and is becoming a Canadian

citizen, called MARTIN at Wichita, and confided he had been

interviewed by the FBI, a Mr. CHARLES CONNERLY phonetic) in

the New York City Office,

and certain information concerning

the activities of subject was requested. (Ul)

WILLIANSON agreed to cooperate, but on further

reflection questioned the wisdom of the decision in view of

the reputation of the subject.

He therefore called MARTIN

and asked his advice as his attorney. (V)

WILLIAMSON told MARTIN he spends a lot of time on

business-in New York City and Chicago, and absolutely refuses

to consider any contacts with the FBI

in either of those

cities.

WILLIAMSON has a strong desire to assist the FBI in

any way possible including taking considerable risk to himself.

He expressed a desire to MARTIN to supply the desired informa-

tion through MARTIN and have MARTIN furnish the information to

the FBI at the Wichita level.

MARTIN explained that apparently

WILLIAMSON feels he is too well known in Chicago or New, York

City to make any contacts with the FBI. He also does not want

his wife to know anything about his contacts with the FBI as

he does not feel she would understand and would probably, through

inadvertence, mention it to PHYLLIS. (V)

MARTIN pointed out he was well aware this would not

be a satisfactory arrangement as he is

gone from Wichita, and

his whereabouts would not always be known to WILLIAMSON.

Further, MARTIN has no desire to inject himself in this matter

and would prefer to have no part in it other than to represent

the best interests of his client. MARTIN observed he thought

however, he could influence WILLIAMSON to make any arrangement

the FBI

might

desire other than to be contacted in New York City

or Chicago.

MARTIN said WILLIAMSON is expected in Wichita in the

very near future and he would arrange for a detailed interview

of his client and would recommend to WILLIAMSON any course of

action deemed satisfactory by the FBI except a Chicago or New

York City contact. (U)

It is the opinion of the Kansas City Office that

MARTIN will cooperate fully with this office in suggesting

to WILLIAMSON any appropriate course of action desired by the

FBI. The Kansas City Office is not aware of the full extent

of efforts by the New York and Chicago Offices to develop

WILLIAVSON as a source in this matter, nor is it readily

apparent what services he can perform relative to the subject,

other than the possible defection of PHYLLIS MC GUIRE. From

the information available it would appear that a possible

current solution would be arrangements for a contact point

away from either Chicago or New York City. MARTIN's reluc-

tance to become involved in this matter appears to dictate

against his continued use an a third parts. (V)

The New York and Chicago Offices are requested to

furnish Kansas City with background information concerning

this matter and specific recommendations as to the action

Kansas City should take in this matter. (u

This information should be furnished Kansas City

by return mail as WILLIAMSON is expected in Wichita, Ks., in
