The FBI File on Milton Friedman: Part 1

In conjunction with the Freedom Of Information Act specialist Jerry Jordan, EconomicPolicyJournal.com requested the FBI file on Nobel prize-winning economist  Milton Friedman.  In total, the FBI supplied 239 pages of records.

Below is Part 1 which mostly contains FBI reports of interviews of Friedman's neighbors, co-workers etc, who describe him as a man of good character. But also contains an apparent investigation by the FBI into a report that Friedman claimed to have FBI papers in his possession.
