Prologue. The Jewish Files. On MAY 2, 1919, CAPTAIN JOHN B. TREVOR sent an urgent request to the director of military intelligence in Washington under the title “Plans for the Protection of New York in Case of Local Disturbances.” To underscore its gravity, he followed up with a telephone call from his military intelligence office at 302 Broadway. In the hysterical atmosphere of the Red Scare just beginning to spread across America, Trevor was convinced that a Bolshevik revolt was imminent in his home city of New York and that “the force available is utterly inadequate to meet a serious uprising in the congested district.”’ Fearing local troops would be “overwhelmed by a great superiority of numbers,” Trevor sought “prompt action” from headquarters.

Pondering these areas of the city, he easily visualized the threat in human form-for he had encountered them personally in the streets for decades and had kept them under intense surveillance for more than a year.
