The following are excerpts from Marilyn Monroe's FBI file, in the future if I have access to a scanner I may scan in whole pages. For now there is only stuff I typed in.

----
Robert Kenndey was deeply involved emotionally with Marilyn Monroe and had
repeatly promised to divorce his wife to marry Marilyn. Eventually Marilyn
realized that Bobby had no intention of marrying her and about this time, 20th
Century Fox studio had decided to cancel her contract.  She had become very
unrollable, being late for set, etc.  In addition, the sudio fwas in financial
difficulty due to the lare expenditures caused in the filming of "Cleopatra".

The studio notified Marilyn that they were cancelling her contract.  This was
right in the middle of a picture she was making.  They decided to replace here
with actress Lee Remick.  Marilyn telephoned Rober Kennedy from her home at
Brentwood, California, person-to-person, at the Department of Justice,
Washington, D.C. to tell him the bad news. Robert Kennedy told her not to
worry about the contract-- he would take care of everything.  When nothing was
done, she agrain called him from her home to the Department of Justice,
person-to-person, and on this occasion they had unpleasant words. She was
reported to have threatoned to make public their affair.  On the day that
Marilyn died, Robert Kennedy was in town, and registered at the Berverly Hills
Hotel.

[BLACKED OUT] according to the annymous caller, MARILYN MONROE had drifted into
the Communist orbit and money from MARILYN MONROE Productions was finding its
way into the CP.  This source stated that MARILYN MONROE Productions was filled
with Communists.

This information is being placed int the Administrative portion of this report
because it appears to be received by this Bureau second or third hand, and is
suitable for general information only.
