(2 of 2)

The FBI report was by any accounting a curious one. It seemed all the more curious in the light of an episode that took place the very day President Johnson ordered the investigation. To the George Washington University Hospital, where Walter Jenkins is confined in a room guarded by private attendants and with a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door, came a bouquet of mixed fall flowers. With it came a card signed "J. Edgar Hoover and Associates." There was some doubt about just who those "associates" might be. But there was no doubt about Hoover, who with a waiver from Johnson will continue as FBI chief after reaching the mandatory retirement age of 70 next Jan. 1.
