An editorial appearing in the March 23, 1960 edition of the Los Angeles Herald and Express severely criticized Sinatra for hiring Albert Maltz and, among other things, pointed out “the impact of Mr. Sinatra’s move may also cause dismay in the campaign camp of Senator John F. Kennedy, through no fault of his own. Mr. Sinatra has put himself forward as a strong Kennedy supporter and the Sinatra recording of ‘High Hopes’ is the Kennedy campaign song.”

A UPI news release dated 3/26/60 stated that Frank Sinatra charged yesterday his critics were hitting below the belt by linking presidential hopeful Senator John Kennedy with Sinatra’s hiring of Albert Maltz. Sinatra said, “I make movies. I do not ask the advice of Senator Kennedy on whom I should hire. Senator Kennedy does not ask me how he should vote in the Senate.”

A UPI news release of 3/25/60 stated that Robert T. O’Leary, National Commander of the Catholic War Veterans, said his organization planned to boycott the movie “The Execution of Private Slovik,” if accused communist leader Maltz wrote the screen play.

There has been widespread criticism of Sinatra by the news media and other sources for his hiring of Albert Maltz.

Attached are brief résumés of communist party connections of Maltz and Sinatra.
