Previous location of Bonwitt Twiller, a consolidation of three New York Bonwitt Twiller stores, opened September of 1930 into the building previously built and occupied by Stewart and Company.
Previous location of Stewart and Company, an extremely high end ladies fashion store. Bad timing... store opened 13 days before the 29 October 1929 stock market crash. Stewart and Co filed for bankruptcy in the spring of 1930. Former site of Daly / Gerard mansion.
In 1899 William Waldorf Astor leased the mansion to Marcus Daly, of The Anaconda" copper mine fortune. Daly signed a ten-year lease but died one year later. Five months after Daly's death one of his daughters, Mary, married James W. Gerard. The Gerard's became the principle residents along with Margaret Daly until 1912 and 1933 respectively. The former Daly / Gerard mansion was rented out, used for war relief in 1916, used as an art gallery and residence, then the structure was demolished in 1928 to make way for the art deco-styled Stewart and Company department store.
Site of mansion built by William Waldorf Aster between 1889 - 1898.
Land undeveloped until circa 1889. William Waldorf Astor, along with George Vanderbilt, had purchased a significant amount of property along 5th Avenue to block the incursion of commerce into the 5th Avenue mansion district below 59th Street
In the "Alex, I'll take That's The Second Biggest Rabbit Hole I've Seen This Week category":
The Gerards moved from the Daly Mansion on the corner of 5th Avenue and 56th Street (the house number at that time was 725 - but is the same site of the now 721 5th Ave Trump Tower) to 1014 5th Avenue. Gerard died in 1951, his wife, Mary, died in 1956. The mansion was purchased by the Federal Republic of Germany in 1959, renovated, opening as the Goethe House in 1961.
In 1969 Goethe House merged with the German Cultural institute - then known as Goethe-Institute New York. In 2008 the New York City Fire Department deemed the mansion unsafe as a public space, and the space has been vacant ever since. A spokesman for the German government stated there were plans to renovate the building and loan it to an American non-profit to run it as a transatlantic space for collaboration and ideas.
Really? One of the last of the grand old private homes on 5th Avenue. Sits derelict. Owned by the German government. Plans to renovate and "loan it" to an "American NGO. Closed by the New York City Fire Department in 2008.
Not only has this war, temporal beyond belief, been going on for a long, long time, the battles are fought in plain site and we have forever never seen or been aware of them until now.
Gerard concluded, "It is with sadness, tinged with fear for the world's future, that we read Hitler's hymn of hate against that race which has added so many names to the roll of the great in science, in medicine, in surgery, in music and the arts, in literature and all uplifting human endeavor.

Central Intelligence Agency
Washington, D. C.
Dear Allen,
It was indeed a pleasure to chat with you last week and leave with you my thesis on "COMBAT PUBLIC RELATIONS". This material was, of course, prepared for our fight against the Nazis. I do not believe, though, that it is completely obsolete because, in my opinion - and if I may say so - it advances some elementary fundamentals which can be learned only from actual combat experience.
I have always maintained that there is no decided difference between the Nazis and the Communists. In other words, the Nazis and the Communists ideologies have a striking similarity. If we carry this thought still further, we come to the conclusion that all potential enemies and aggressors are equally dangerous to the peace and security of the world.
This is an era of total war - to win it, psychological warfare and combat public relations must play an important part in our strategy.
Somehow I feel qualified to pass judgement because, after all, I have spent my entire life in this field. Even as a young man I was interested in psychological warfare and was quite proud when Jimmy Gerard, patron of my family, recommended me to President Roosevelt for an important assignment in this sphere. We are fortunate, indeed, that psychological warfare has become an essential part of planning. Great leaders like General Marshall were certainly aware of it, and I recall with much satisfaction those times long before Pearl Harbor, when he asked me to give him my views on this subject.

On January 24, 1942, Joe Roos achieved one of his greatest personal triumphs: J. Edgar Hoover asked him to serve as an unofficial agent for the FBI. Explaining that Walter Winchell recommend he contact Roos, Hoover wanted the Viennese-born Jew to "help to (sic) us in our work by bringing to our attention any information you deem of value in connection with subversive activities." The Bureau, he explained, could not officially investigate someone without showing cause. But if private citizens, such as Roos and Lewis could "secure evidence," the FBI could then investigate and arrest suspects. Hoover asked Roos to send all information directly to him or his representative in Los Angeles, Richard Hood. Flattered by the signal achievement, Roos provided Hoover and Hood with updated weekly summaries of their master index containing the names of all German, Japanese, and American suspects."
page 328
Unwilling to retreat, Lewis and Roos turned to California attorney general Earl Warren that spring for help. Unlike Tenney, who would later reveal his strong anti-Semetic streak, Warren hoped to pave the way for his anticipated run for governor by attracting the support of the state's Jewish voters. Mutual friends asked Joe Roos "to come up with some idea which would fulfill that objective, but at the same time would lie in our interest." Roos suggested "that a number of local Nazis be prosecuted for failure to register as Nazi agents with the Secretary of State of California," particularly Noble, Frenz, and Jones. Warren agreed and instructed deputy attorney general Louis Drucker to work with Roos in developing a case against the men.
page 329
Government prosecutors were fighting a two-front campaign, state and federal, aimed at destroying the remnants of the Nazi and fifth-column movements. Before taking further action against Ferenz, Noble and Jones, Drucker and FBI special agent in charge Richard Hood spoke with U.S. attorney general Francis Biddle about coordinating state and federal court actions. Instructing them "to get tough with the subversive gang," Biddle approved their request to arrest the three men and charge them with sedition under California law. Wanting Drucker to be as prepared as possible, Lewis and Roos sent him 113 of their operatives' reports covering the activities of the three men. The spymasters also agreed to maintain their undercover operations and keep "our informants close to these people now under arrest. We could tip off the agencies of contemplated moves by these individuals."

That was a Julius Klein controlled private intelligence operation. Klein was activated by Col. George C. Marshall in 1933 to work in a covert capacity for Army Intelligence in Los Angeles.

Gerard (former ambassador to Imperial Germany and close friend of Julius Klein's father, "a leader of the American colony in Berlin, where he maintained a residence and handled international banking interests,"

Joe Roos was Julius Klein's nephew (sister's son) that Klein brought with him to L.A. to run day to day operations. At the same time Klein was in contact with and milking Hollywood studio executives for the funds to run his agents and the spying operation, he was running a high-level spy, Georg Gyssling, the German consul in L.A., for whom Klein wrote a letter to the Nuremberg American prosecutor recommending no prosecution. Gyssling was released, no trial. (There's a book in it for whomever can uncover the Dulles/Gyssling link and "The Secret Surrender" hoax.
In 1942, A.G. Biddle selected Thomas Dodd to prosecute a number of east-coast Nazis based on information developed by Roos and Lewis. Both Dodd and Biddle would later participate in the Nuremberg Trials - Dodd on the prosecution staff and Biddle as a Judge. Dodd. Klein. Dodd. Klein. Bueller... Bueller... Bueller...
Here's Dodd getting soft balled by William F. Buckley Jr. ( I give the benefit of the doubt to Buckley in this interview for the white wash):
Firing Line with William F. Buckley Jr. interviews (soon to be censured) Senator Thomas Dodd (D - Connecticut). Subject: Gen Julius Klein (48 minutes, 34 seconds)
That's two future members of the Warren Commission, one future (to-be-censured) U.S. Senator, a future U.S. Secretary of State associated with the private spy network organized by Julius Klein and with whom Klein would maintain close personal and "professional" relationships.
Klein was also on a first name basis with Allen Dulles for years before the Warren commission was formed (goes back to Dulles' days in the OSS).
Julius Klein was under secret investigation by the Kennedy White House and select members of the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee, starting in September of 1962. That investigation lead to Klein testifying before the Foreign Affairs Committee on 20 November 1963, in hearings about the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA), that started on 19 November and ended on 21 November 1963. That investigation of Julius Klein ended with Kennedy's death on 22 November 1962.
