       "KEY PERSONS" FILE OF THE PRESIDENT'S
        COMMISSION ON THE ASSASSINATION OF
                 PRESIDENT KENNEDY

     On the 34 rolls of this microfilm publication
are reproduced the individual dossiers of almost
600 "Key Persons" who were involved in the
investigation conducted by the President's
Commission on the Assassination of President
Kennedy.  This series of records is part of Records
of the President's Commission on the Assassination
of President Kennedy, Record Group (RG) 272.  A
list of the dossiers is given in appendix 2 of this
introduction.  Most documents in the file were
created or accumulated by the Commission between
December 1963 and November 1964, but some are dated
earlier.

                    Background

     The President's Commission on the Assassina-
tion of President Kennedy, commonly called the
Warren Commission from the name of its Chairman,
was appointed by President Lyndon B. Johnson in
Executive Order 11130, dated November 29, 1963.
The order directed the Commission to investigate
the November 22, 1963 assassination of President
John Fitzgerald Kennedy in Dallas, Tex., and the
subsequent killing of the alleged assassin; to
evaluate its findings; and to report its
conclusions.

     The following seven men were appointed to the
Commission:

Earl Warren (Chairman):  Chief Justice of the
     United States, former Governor and
     attorney general of California

Richard B. Russell:  Democratic Senator from
     Georgia and chairman of the Senate Armed
     Services Committee, former Governor of
     Georgia, and county attorney in that
     State

John Sherman Cooper:  Republican Senator from
     Kentucky, former county and circuit
     judge in Kentucky, and U.S. Ambassador to
     India
Hale Boggs:  Democratic Representative from
     Louisiana and majority whip in the House
     of Representatives

Gerald R. Ford:  Republican Representative
     from Michigan and chairman of the House
     Republican Conference

Allen W. Dulles:  lawyer, former Director of
     the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)

John J. McCloy:  lawyer, former President of
     the International Bank for Reconstruction
     and Development, and U.S. High
     Commissioner for Germany

     The tragic events that caused the appointment
of the Commission may be briefly summarized.  The
assassination of Kennedy and the simultaneous
wounding of Gov. John B. Connally of Texas were
quickly followed by the murder of Patrolman J. D.
Tippit of the Dallas Police Department.  Shortly
afterward, Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested by the
Dallas Police as a suspect in the murder of Tippit.
On the basis of evidence provided by Federal,
State, and local agencies, the State of Texas
arraigned Oswald within 12 hours of his arrest,
charging him with the assassination of President
Kennedy as well as the murder of Tippit.  On
November 24, 1963, in the basement of the Dallas
Police Department building, Oswald was fatally shot
by Jack Ruby, a Dallas nightclub owner.

     Many persons, both in the United States and
abroad, suspected the existence of a foreign or
domestic conspiracy to assassinate the President.
Because it was not possible to determine the truth
by normal judicial procedures after Oswaldls death,
various methods of conducting an investigation were
discussed.  A State court of inquiry in Texas, an
investigation by the grand jury of Dallas County,
and investigations by both Houses of Congress were
all considered.  It was to avoid any possible
parallel investigations that President Johnson
appointed his Commission.

     On December 13, 1963, Congress passed Senate
Joint Resolution 137 (which became Public Law 88-
202) authorizing the Commission to subpoena
witnesses and obtain evidence concerning any matter
relating to the investigation.  The resolution also
gave the Comlnission power to compel witnesses to
testify by granting them imlnunity from prosecution
The Commission, however, did not exercise this
power.

     From the start, the Commission regarded the
Executive order by which it was appointed as a
mandate to conduct a thorough and independent
investigation.  Its first investigative action
after reviewing the five-volume report of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was to
request the Bureau to furnish the investigative
reports on which the general report was based.  On
December 20, 1963, the Bureau delivered the first
investigative reports in response to this request.
Summary reports were also received from the Secret
Service and the Department of State.  The attorney
general of Texas furnished investigatory materials
of the State.  After these reports were studied,
further requests for information were made,
particularly to the FBI, the Secret Service, and
the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).  To ensure
that all possible sources of information would be
available, the Commission also sent requests to 24
other departments and agencies of the overnment
and to four congressional committees, seeking to
collect every piece of information relating to the
assassination or to the background and activities
of Oswald and Ruby.  Occasionally the Commission
used independent experts from State and ciy
governments to obtain information, and it went to
Dallas several times to visit the scene of the
assassination and other relevant places.  And, of
course, most of the Commission sessions were
hearings in which persons who had witnessed the
assassination and related events or who had been
involved in other ways were directly questioned.

     A unanimous Commission presented its Report
of the President's Commission on the Assassination
of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy to the
President on September 24, 1964.  The Commission's
principal conclusions were that Lee Harvey Oswald
was the assassin of President Kennedy and that he
acted alone.

                        Records Description

     The "Key Persons" file of the Commission
consists of the dossiers of about 600 persons
considered most important to the Commission in
coming to its final conclusion concerning the
assassination.  There are one or more folders for
most of the 552 persons who gave testimony and for
some 90 further persons who did not.  Those who
were not witnesses included President Kennedy; Lee
Harvey Oswald; J. D. Tippit; members of the Dallas
Police Department; former associates or
acquaintances of Oswald; a deceased former
stepfather of Oswald; and "Daryl Click," the
incorrect name for Oswald's taxi driver given in
press reports.  The reasons for choosing most of
these names for the file have not been found in the
Commission's records.  Records for some of the
persons who were witnesses were originally placed
in another name file of the Commission and then
transferred to the "Key Persons" file in accordance
with the Commission's apparent intention to place
the material for all witnesses in this file.

     Among the papers in the folders are
transcripts of testimony, depositions, affidavits,
and written statements taken from the persons
themselves, as well as memorandums concerning their
backgrounds or suggesting areas of investigation
and various administrative papers--schedules for
hearings, letters of notification, transmittals,
and so forth.  The dossier for Mark Lane includes
many tape recordings of his speeches.  Many of the
documents have Commission document numbers, which
mean that they are copies of documents that the
Commission considered "basic source materials" and
included in its numbered document file.

     The dossiers are arranged alphabetically by
the name of the person involved and chronologically
by date of document within each one, except that
the dossiers for the following persons, in addition
to name folder(s), also have folders for numbered
subject subdivisions within which the documents are
arranged chronologically:  John B. Connally, John
F. Kennedy, Mrs. John F. Kennedy, Lee Harvey
Oswald, Marina Oswald, Michael Ralph and Ruth
Paine, Jack Ruby, and J. D. Tippitt.


                  Related Records

     After the publication of the Commission's
Report and the accompanying 26 volumes of Hearings,
the Commission transferred all of its records to
the custody of the National Archives and Records
Administration (NARA).  Much of this material is
directly related to the "Key Persons" file, and all
of it is described in Inventory of the Records of
the President's Commission on the Assassination of
President Kennedy, NARS Inventory No. 5, compiled
by Marion Johnson.  This inventory describes the
records of the Commission by series.

     Additional material related to the
assassination is in National Archives Gift
Collection, RG 200 (Columbia Broadcasting System
1964 and 1967 news films of programs relating to
the report of the Commission, including scripts for
the 1967 programs, and X-rays and photographs
relating to the autopsy of the body of President
Kennedy); in Records of the U.S. House of
Representatives, RG 233 (records of the House
Select Committee on Assassinations); and in the
GERALD R. FORD LIBRARY (RECORDS OF THE ROCKEFELLER
Commission on CIA activities within the United
States).


                   Restrictions

     The Commission records, of which the documents
filed in this publication are a part, are
administered by NARA under guidelines prepared by
the Department of Justice, a copy of which is
included as appendix 1 to this introduction.  These
guidelines provide for periodic reviews of any of
the records that are withheld from research to
determine whether they may be released.  The
reviews are conducted by the NARA staff and the
agencies that furnished documents or information to
the Commission.  All records that are withheld from
research are exempt from disclosure under the
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552),
according to the following sections of the act:
(b) (1)--matters that are "(A) specifically
authorized under criteria established by an
Executive order to be kept secret in the interest
of national defense or foreign policy and (B) are
in fact properly classified pursuant to such
EXECUTIVE ORDER"  (B) (2)--RECORDS WITHHELD FROM
public disclosure by specific statutes, such as
income tax returns; (b) (6)--"personnel and medical
files and similar files the disclosure of which
would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of
PERSONAL PRIVACY"  AND (B) (7)--"INVESTIGATORY
records compiled for law enforcement purposes, but
only to the extent that the production of such
records would. . . (C) constitute an unwarranted
Invasion of personal privacy, (or) (D) disclos
identity of a confidential source . . ."  The
withheld records are to be reviewed periodically
until all are made available for research.

     Any copyrighted materials reproduced in this
microfilm publication may not be published without
the consent of the copyright owner.  Documents or
parts of documents withheld from research are
indicated by withdrawal notices or deletions.

     This file was prepared for filming and the
introduction was written by Marion M. Johnson.  The
List of Dossiers (app. 2) was prepared by John F.
Simmons.  The editor was Kathleen S. Quigley.

APPENDIX 1

 Guidelines for Review of Materials Submitted to
The President's Commission on the Assassination of
                 President Kennedy

(as reviewed and revised in light of 1974 Amend-
      ments to Freedom of Information Act)

Statutory requirements prohibiting disclosure
should be observed.

1. Statutory requirements prohibiting disclosure
    should be observed.

2.  Security classifications should be respected,
    but the agency responsible for the
    classification should carefully re-evaluate the
    contents of each classified document and
    determine whether the classification can,
    consistently with the national security, be
    eliminated or downgraded.  See Attorney
    General's Memorandum on 1974 Amendments
    p. 1-4.


3.  Unclassified material that has not already been
    disclosed in another form should be made
    available to the public on a regular basis or
    upon request under the Freedom of Information
    Act unless such material is exempt under the
    Act and its disclosure --

(A)  Would be detrimental to the administration
     and enforcement of the laws and
     regulations of the United States and its
     agencies;

(B)  Might reveal the identity of confidential
     sources of information and impede or
     jeopardize future investigations by
     precluding or limiting the use of the same
     or similar souces hereafter,

(C)  Would be a source of embarrassment to
     innocent persons, who are the subject,
     source, or apparent source of the material
     in question, because it contains gossip
     and rumor or details of a personal nature
     having no significant connection with the
     assassination of the President.

     Whenever one of the above reasons for
nondisclosure may apply, your department should, in
determining whether or not to authorize disclosure,
weigh that reason against the overriding policy of
the Executive Branch favoring the fullest
disclosure.

     UNLESS SOONER RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC,
classified and unclassified materiai that is not
now made available to the public shall, as a
minimum, be reviewed by the agency concerned 5
years and 10 years after the initial examination
has been completed, and in addition must be
reviewed whenever necessary to the prompt and
proper processing of a Freedom of Information
request.  The criteria applied in the initial
examination, outlined above, should be applied to
determine whether changed circumstances will permit
further disclosure.  Similar reviews should be
undertaken at 10-year intervals until all materials
are opened for legitimate research purposes.  The
Archivist of the United States will arrange for
such review at the appropriate time.  Whenever
possible provision should be made for the automatic
declassification of classified material that cannot
be declassified at this time.
