VLVL2(3): Special Employee

[Dave Monroe]

"'Well, sounds like a breeze, and you mean i get paid
for it too?'
   "'Special Employee scale, maybe even a bonus.'
   "'Used to be a twenty, as I recall, limp and warm
from some agent's wallet his kid gave him for
Christmas ...'
   "'Sure--you'll find today it can be well into the
low three figures, Zoyd.'" (VL, Ch. 3, p. 30)

Cf. ...

   "That fatal five-spot was not the last
Purchase-of-Information disbursement in the
neighborhood."  (VL, Ch. 3, p. 24)


"Purchase-of-Information disbursement"

These provisions apply to all awarding agency
professional personnel, recipients, and subrecipients
involved in the administration of grants containing
confidential funds.

Confidential funds are those monies allocated to the
purchase of services (P/S), purchase of evidence
(P/E), and purchase of specific information (P/I).
These funds should only be allocated when:

The particular merits of a program/investigation
warrant the expenditure of these funds.

Requesting agencies are unable to obtain these funds
from other sources.

Confidential funds are subject to prior approval. Such
approval will be based on a finding that they are a
reasonable and necessary element of project
operations. In this regard, the approving agency must
also ensure that the controls over disbursement of
confidential funds are adequate to safeguard against
the misuse of such funds....

On January 1, 1914, the office of the Special
Commissioner for the suppression of the white slave
traffic at Baltimore was closed and the office was
merged with the office of the Bureau of Investigation
at Washington. Sometime after that, Mr. FINCH became a
Special Assistant to the Attorney General and was in
the Department for many years. He was endorsed for
these various positions by SERENO PAYNE, a very
powerful member of Congress from New York State.
It is evident that the war in Europe was fast
approaching, and it is believed that on this account
some action was taken by the Attorney General and the
Chief of the Bureau of Investigation, who at that time
was A. BRUCE BIELASKI, to retain many of the local
white slave officers in the Bureau. Many of their were
given the title of Special Employee and remained in
their home communities and performed limited services
of a general nature under the direction and
supervision of the Special Agents in Charge in the
several field offices, and were paid on a part time or
fee basis, depending upon the number of investigations
conducted and the amount of time devoted to the
Government work. Quite a large number of these local
officers were appointed as fulltime Special Agents and
served as such throughout the World War period. Some
remained in the service for a number of years after
the war was over and served as such throughout the
World War period. Some remained in the service for a
number of years after the war was over.

    Mr. RANKIN, You have furnished us a considerable
amount of information, Mr. Hoover, about whether or
not Lee Harvey Oswald was ever an agent or acting for
the Bureau in any capacity as informer or otherwise at
any time. Are those statements correct?
    Mr. HOOVER. They are correct. I can most
emphatically say that at no time was he ever an
employee of the Bureau in any capacity, either as an
agent or as a special employee, or as an informant.
