asked her if she ever watched Allen Burke. Her face lit up happily and she said, "Yes, that was it, I saw you on it and you were wonderful." That relieved me because she had approved and I could relax. Next day I took one of the leaflets around to her booth and as I said in one of my editorials, I "made some waves" with her.
Wednesday evening we had a meeting of a number of the Boston group in my hotel room in Cambridge and got acquainted with a number of new ones new to me in person that is. Another late
nite.
Thursday noon, between the morning and afternoon sessions I went to see the head of Boston's vice detail, a very kindly and nice man named Jordan. He asked me many questions and gradually a group of his sargeants came in and asked me many more. They wanted me to talk to the student cops in the Police Academy but that was, unfortunately, their last day of school and so it wasn't possible. I had to get back to the convention by 1:30 for an important talk and it was already that time, so I asked the Capt. if he could help me out with police car transportation to save the subway time. He said he could and asked one of the sargeants, "Can you take her back, Jones?" He replied that he could and added, "I'll take Smith along." I laughed and kidded him by saying, "Waht's the matter, are you chicken to go with me alone?" It was very interesting and they were all very friendly.
I got back to the convention and had the opportunity to hear Sir John Wolfenden of the famous Wolfenden report in England. After the session was over I went up to the platform and spoke with him. I revealed myself to him, showed him TVia and the Wives book and gave him a copy of the Lecture Leaflet. He was very kindly and interested and promised that he would let any others who might be concerned about the field in England know about our activities over here.
