They will accept women in the FBI. Washington. Patrick Gray, acting director of the FBI, reported that the agency will open its doors to female agents for the first time in history. Gray said that he anticipates some criticism for such action, due to the possible dangers faced by the agents. However, he added, “it is something that has to be put into practice.” Gray made the proposal in a meeting with the 15 main assistants who worked with J. Edgar Hoover, during his 40 years at the head of the organization.
One of the most important of these told him: “You will find no opposition to that.” The interim director had urged Hoover earlier in the year to drop his opposition to the officers when two women sued, accusing Hoover of discrimination, but he couldn’t convince him. The lawsuit is still pending. Gray commented on the important change, while he was getting ready with his wife, for a weekend trip.
