Edgar Hoover, director of the FBI. Murphys announcement was made as the plane bearing the men neared Los Angeles, but he did not elaborate on the* case, stating only that he "sent a man to Los Angeles three weeks ago to make a survey." United States District Attorney Benjamin Harrison declared he had no knowledge of the "swindle."
