Mr. Jenner.

What did you do then?

Mr. Steele.

I told Oswald that I didn't want any more to do with it, and I wasn't going to pass out any more leaflets, and he said, "Well, all right," and he gave me the $2, and I left.

Mr. Jenner.

He didn't pursue it any further?

Mr. Steele.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

But he went ahead and gave you the $2; is that right?

Mr. Steele.

Yes; and then I walked off.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you have any leaflets left when you left the scene?

Mr. Steele.

No. I got rid of the ones I had left.

Mr. Jenner.

Do you remember telling the FBI that you threw the remainder of the leaflets in a trash can there at the scene?

Mr. Steele.

Yes; I threw what I had left in the trash can. I mean, when I left there, I didn't have any with me.

Mr. Jenner.

You threw the remaining leaflets away that you had?

Mr. Steele.

Yes, sir; I threw them in the trash can around there some place, but after leaving that spot, you know. I mean, the can wasn't right there where I was passing them out.

Mr. Jenner.

Did you have any conversation with Oswald about whether these leaflets were or were not communistic in nature?

Mr. Steele.

I did ask him if they were communistic, and he said they were not. He said they were from an organization affiliated with Tulane University, or something to that effect, of somehow being connected with Tulane. I believe I had asked him something about the leaflets before, and he told me about them being connected with Tulane some connection there. I don't remember exactly what he said, but I do remember him telling me about that, you know, the other time I asked him, and so then I told him I didn't want any more to do with it, and he gave me the $2.

Mr. Jenner.

He did persist in your continuing to pass them out?

Mr. Steele.

No; he didn't.

Mr. Jenner.

Did he deny they had any connection with communism, in so many words?

Mr. Steele.

He denied that; yes, sir. He didn't really say what it was for.

Mr. Jenner.

He just said it was from an organization connected with Tulane University?

Mr. Steele.

Yes.

Mr. Jenner.

But that didn't reassure you, did it?

Mr. Steele.

No; it didn't. It made me stop and wonder though if it was or wasn't, but then I didn't think any more about it.

Mr. Jenner.

Anyhow, you didn't want any more to do with it once you saw the cameras, did you?

Mr. Steele.

No; I didn't.

Mr. Jenner.

And you got your $2, which was the price agreed on, and you left, is that right?

Mr. Steele.

That's right.

Mr. Jenner.

This man that came along with Oswald, have you ever seen him since then?

Mr. Steele.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

Had you ever seen him before that time?

Mr. Steele.

No; I never did.

Mr. Jenner.

Was there any conversation between Oswald and the man he brought along with him that you might have overheard?

Mr. Steele.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

What was your impression of the connection between them, if any?

Mr. Steele.

The same as mine. He was getting them out of this unemployment place, just like he did me.

Mr. Jenner.

When you first went into this unemployment place, did you notice Oswald in there at that time?

Mr. Steele.

No.

Mr. Jenner.

When did you first notice him?
