Hon. Clifford P. Case
United States Senator of New Jersey
Washington, D. C.
Dear Senator Case:
Thank you for honoring me with a personal letter regarding your proposed bill to
require of governmental officials that they report periodically, to some agency
duly authorized, of their receipts in the form of money or otherwise during their
terms of office.
My opinion is that such a requirement for non - elected officials might be a good
one. But for elected officials, to my mind, the very fact that they have been
duly elected to public office ought to be enough.
It does happen, however, that the election laws are sometimes so loosely made use
as to allow persons seeking public office to gain their objective in defiance of
the law.
I had an amazing experience in this matter during the campaign of 1948. As a
student of practical politics, I myself ran for the office of Senator from Texas.
I anticipated that which actually happened; that there would be what amounted to a
tie vote between Lyndon Johnson and Coke Stevenson. Thus an opportunity would be
afforded for me to, in full compliance with the law as then in operation, prove to
the satisfaction of the district court here, that I won the election even if I
myself had been the only one who cast his ballot for me.
The enclosed little bulletin about the Texas Election Laws was published by me
showing what I mean.
The sensational position now occupied by Lyndon Johnson in the Senate gives added
interest to that story.
My contention was, and is, that as an authority on constitutional law and
,jurisprudence, I was entirely within my rights to demonstrate that under the Texas
Election laws as then in operation one could in effect elect himself to the United
States Senate.
The only reason that I could not bring the thing to final issue was that the local
county attorney refused to act when my attorney filed papers with him asking for
quo warranto proceedings to show cause why I should not be declared the duly
elected senator from Texas.
As revealed by an enclosure, Judge W. S. Barron, who was then the ,judge of the
District Court, has since become my private attorney. I told him at the time that
I did not want to embarrass him but I was going to file the papers. He said for
me to go ahead.
I ,jokingly said to him a few days ago, that I might consider sometime filing a
suit in the court of claims contending for the salary paid to Lyndon Johnson
during his first term as Senator.
Personally, I feel that the circumstances surrounding one's election to public
office should be such as to carry as a foregone conclusion that their integrity
is above reproach. I would suggest, however, your action take the form of a
sort of ,joint resolution of Congress asking that some impartial agency work out
standards of conduct to which members of Congress are supposed to conform. We
might have here a sort of Ten Commandments for elected officials in this country.
Very truly yours,
F. B. Clark

Dr. Reginald Poland
Director of the Museums
1280 Peachtree Street,, N. E.
Atlanta- 9 Georgia
Dear Dr. Poland-.
I am enclosing herewith a typewritten copy of comments
concerning my conclusion regarding the marketing process
of works of art. This conclusion as yoa well know,, was
arrived at after much deliberation with you and Dr. Scharf.
The comments appeared in a recent issue of the Richmond
Times Dispatch and were sent to me by a relative of mine.
I am sere that you will have no tro - dble in locating that
issue of the Richmond Times Dispatchl—JVly 12,, 1959.
It is not easy to make exactly clear how we have arrived
at that conclusion. Because of this I have attempted to
work out a suitable reply. A copy of this is also enclosed.
It could be that Jon Zongaker will desire to carry in the
Times Dispatch my reply. Since you and Dr. Scharf have
been closely associated with me in this study,, naturally
I want you to be informed as to what I am doing.
It is entirely possible that I shall reproduce the story
as it appeared in the Times Dispatch along with my reply to
it,, so as to include it along with other overflow material
associated with my study of The Marketing of Works of Art.
Cordially yours

S. Scharf., Dr. Reginald Poland., and other artists and connoisseurs of Atlanta., Georgia,,
came to the conclusion reflected in the above extended remarkso That is to say,, in order
for the fine artists and their easels to meet the threat of the commercial artists as
reflected in the work of Martin Iowitz and others like him,, who are in effect attempting
to bribe the fine artists to abandon the spirit of deliberation and turn out original
oil paintings in a hurry,, that the conclusion taken exception to in the Richmond., Virginia
Times Dispatch., was arrived at.
For the work of the fine artists to meet the attack of the commercial artists on their
work,, it will be necessary for them to show that they have something to offer which the
commercial artist may not even hope to accomplish. This., we feel., they are able to do., if
once the job which they are doing is correctly adapted to the real market for their products.
We have discovered that however interesting the work of the commercial artist may be
there is something to be found in the work of the fine artists which cannot be offered in
the usual manner by quantity production. However nearly perfect the photographic repro -
duction —even color photographic reproduction —it is lifeless unless it shows the touch
of the hand of the fine artist. It is possible for this touch of the fine artists to be
made available for reproductions of great works of art without in any way reflecting on the
work of the fine artist and his easel or the result of his handiwork. That which we are
attempting to do should in fact add to instead of in any manner detracting from the work
of the really fine artist.
On page gl of my study of The Marketing of Works of Art is found the following
quotation from Sir Walter Armstrongos Life of Thomas Gainsborough
"It would be easy., were it necessary., to show that some of the
worst painters who have ever lived have had a fine eye for beauty,, and
so far as mere imitation goes., have reproduced it with considerable
success. Beauty was the foundation of Gainsboroughas art in that it was
his sole and only stimulus., but the merit of his pictures as we see them
does not lie in the beauty they reproduce., but in the beauty they create.,
in the extraordinary felicity of his means and in the remarkable aesthetic
unity of his results."
The result is that we find many struggling artists who may never qualify as capable
of giving to a painting the vivifying factor that makes it one of those rare creations
which command fabulous prices. Yet their ability to reproduce beauty should enable them
to put the finishing touches on photographic reproductions of the rare paintings,, one of
which they may., or may not,, ever bring into existence. In the meantime the properly
operated creative artist outlet might conceivably make available to such artists as these—
those who qualify as able to reRr_gduce beauty if not create beauty — opportunity for profit-
able employment and thus avert the enduring threat of starvation for struggling artists.
The above statement should explain what we mean when we say that the time for quantity
production does not make its appearance till after the work of the fine artists has been
deliberately completed. That which we are attempting to do,, therefore,, is to enable the
fine artists to meet the threat of the commercial artists with the resources at their own
command., w#ii.ch the commercial artist cannot ever hope to copy. Under this plan of sale,, the
artists and their easels will be conserved. The greatness of the creative artists will be
brought into its own,, and the common run of humanity may hope to have in its possession,, as
its very own., objects of beauty., as nearly as possible,, equal to that of the original as
they may ever hope to be.
The quality of the kind of reproductions here visualized will naturally be taken care
of by those persons in charge of the creative artists outlets. If b_y an:

January 2, 1950
Mr. Horton Pepper
Q Cneas, Pepper, and Siegel
Attorneys at Law
55 Liberty Street
New York 5, New York
Dear 1 -�r, Pepper:
This letter is to thank you for the courtesies which you and Pair. A Lawrence
Siegel extended to me during my brief stay in New York last week. Caught as
I am in the toils of a strange controversy it sometimes becomes necessary for
me to act first and explain later, ilhen that occurs my behavior may appear to
be strange and somewhat unreasonable. Up until now I have always had what
appeared to me to be a good reason for what I have done. 1,y reasons for the
steps which I took just before my trip to New York will be related in this
letter to you so that you, at least, will have in hand the motives behind what
I was doing. Although I explained some of them to you in person, it was
naturally impracticable for me to explain them fully,
1. That which I had in mind when I started out to secure somethint; in the
nature of a "press conference" had lost its sign'_ficance before my departure
from College Station. It is inyorta_Zt, however, that I make some comment on
this matter so as to give a better setting for that which I did later.
I have sufficient confidence in my persuasive power to feel that I could have
accomplished what I was after in that regard if its reason for taking place had
not vanished.
That which I intended to do was to contact personally certain of the leaders
in each of the organizations mentioned with the intention of urging on them that
someone who had the time and inclination be dcsiGnated to meet with me for a
private conference. At that conference I expected to reveal the things which
I had included in the mimeographed document which I had sent out to them, along
with other material more confidential in nature. I was going even to suggest
that a dependable representativ: of the press attend the meeting. A well
placed news release of that meeting would have been necessary, as will appear
later.
I felt that my having sent out the mimeographed statement had almost unavoidably
made me liable to citation for libel, if any of those persons whose names were
mentioned cared to take notice of the fact. Being cited for libel was even
taken into consideration as a part of my plan to force a hearing on the issues
involved without resorting to the more extreme remedy,
At the time when I sought this conference I felt secure in that I had retained
the services of an attorney whom I counted on to help mc. If I had been cited
for libel, my intention was to file a counter suit, Thereupon it was not too
much to expect the issues to be brought to a focus out of court If it had
ever been possible to obtain anything in the nature of such a hearing the
task which I have been attempting to accomplish would have been settled long
ago. For some strange reasons the other side employs only "brush off" tactics
and will in no iray do anything even approximating a hearing wherein everything
can be discussed
The "brush off" tactics employed in this instance could have been extremely
embarrassing to no if I had not have had you to call on for counsel. The
utter futility of any constructive assistance from the one organization upon
which college professors rely - the AAUP - became apparent in the form of a
telegram from Dr. Himpstead to mo on the eve of my departure from College
Station. That was the first bit of information which I had received from
that organization giving evidence of its having paid any attention whatever
to my case. The telegram seemed to me to have been inspired by the college
administration here as a sort of final "brush off% This telegram might
have even stood as an obstacle between no and your wonderful organization
but for the timely aid of Dr. F. C. Mills, of Columbia University, the
Chairmen of the Committee on A.Cadonic Freedom of the American Economic
Association. Dr. 14illst help to me was far greater than he has over realized.
If he had not urged me to go ahead and connect up with Mr. Siegel I might
not have had the inclination to do it. Having failed there my trip to Now
York would have become useless.
Furthermore the vory attorney upon whom I was relying to help no in Texas had
given me to understand that he had been given to understand that it would not
be professionally healthful for him to continue with my case. He had oven
stated that his father, the District Judge here, had boon made to fool in-
secure in his position as District Judge because of his son's having undertalcon
to handle my case. Tiithout the help of an attorney I could not see how I
might aven be able to secure a grit of habeas corpus in case I needed one.
You have here the explanation, in part, of the letter which I sent to the
Carncr-io Foundation for the jidvancoment of Teaching. If the persons ti
names itbre mentioned in my mimeographed statement had cared to Go to that
oxtreme they :.ii.glit have intercepted me as I passed through Dallas, Texas and
held me incoi,n.unicado. This was, to be sure, an extremity to which I did not
expect them to go in their "brush off" tactics. But even at that you can
imagine the cold chills which tiiont through my system when a call came over the
loud speaLer in the station in Dallas paging a Mister Floyd somebody whose
name sounded too much like mine for comfort. At least I preferred not to
answer the call
2. 'Without the use of an attorney, I arms now left, so to spmeak, out on a limb
so far as action in libel went I had to do somothing to meet the potential
threat of being cited for libel under circumstances so heavily loaded against
me as to be as a foregone conclusion fatal
This potential threat of citation for libel accounts for my statoment, in the
letter to the Carnegie Foundation, requesting those persons into whose hands
the mimeographed sheets had boon placed to treat the material as intended only
for the use before a grand jury I hoped by that to call to their attention
the iiapclling importance of protoeting me from the action of any irresponsiblc
person into whose hands tho material might fall.
f
I did not have much hope that the Carnegie Foundation would go to the trouble
` — to request an investigation by the F.B.I. if I did not happen to appear at
the Coima odore Hotel as indicated. Evon at that I hoped to raise enough hell
to have somebody pay attention to shat I was doing. If I had not actually
appeared possibly enough persons would have known of my perturbation to
obtain for me a writ of habeas corpus if I had boon hold incorraunicado in
Dallas. The five hours wait between trains in Dallas was certainly not
comfortable even though the threat eras so romote as to be almost fantastic.
Z You can see now, I feel, why I tras overly eager to toll my story to the
complaint department of the Now York office of the F.B„I. I vuas certainly
gratified to have you say that having taken the; case to the F.B.I. would
provide no with an effective answer in case I should happen to have to mako
an answer to a citation for libel.
The treatment which I received at the office of tho F.B.I most happy.
They naturally, explained that tho matter of jurisdiction had always to
be given first consideration. The one to whom I talked, however, a Mr.
McCann gave me to understand that if they found that they did not have
jurisdiction he would direct no to the organization which is qualified to
handle ny complaint,
Late that afternoon I,ir. McCaim called me at my roon in the Cornnodore Hotel
and informed that the issues involved in ray statomont were too largo for
ono of their offices to handle. He said that they would contact the Dallas
Office, or possibly the Houston Office, and furthcriaore transnit the
information to the headquarters in "�
I fool now that I havo carried this great controversy as far as I can carry
it alone. If thoro exists anyirhere in this country an organization big
onough to handle it I feel that it is note resting thero. i.2y hope is that it
will not be n000ssary for iao to do anythin-• nore on ray orriz initiative to
bring into performance tho forces of corroction for tho hellish situation
now cursing tho Texas educational institutions.
I hope that onough was done during my short stay in NOW York to bring to
the consciousness of a number of the loaders in 1inorican education the fact
twat practically ovory employe in every college or university in this country
is nozr unconsciously sitting on a volcano. I hope that something can be
done to arouse them to action before it is too late.
It does not soon to matter how small tho area covered, the statement made
by Tom Paine early in our history that dictatorship like hell is hard to
ovorcome is proeminently true.
I shall have this letter ramoographod'for circulation later, Until I know
more about what will be required of me by the F.B.I. I shall not distributo
it to anyone else except you and Dr. F. C.I1Iills, of Columbia University.
Thanking you again for the rare privilege of mooting you in porson, and
expressing again my regrot at not having had the opportunity to thank
ifir, Siegol for his kindnoss to me, I am,
Vory truly yours
F. B. Clark
