(Testimony of Maj. Gen. Edwin A. Walker)

Mr. Liebeler.
It wasn't in Oak Cliff at all?
General WALKER. Well, I had the .idea at the time that it was on this side of town, out the side I am on.
Mr. Liebeler.
Well, from the time Oswald came back from the Soviet Union and moved to Dallas and the time he was killed, he lived in an apartment on Neely Street, and on Elsbeth Street and in a room on Marsalis Street, and 1026 North Beckley Street. Those are the only four places he ever lived. Was it on any one of those four streets that this is supposed to have happened?
General WALKER. I can't recall definitely. Are they over in Oak Cliff?
Mr. Liebeler.
I believe each and every one of them, with the possible exception of Marsalis, is.
General WALKER. I can get the information that I must have recorded somewhere on the address we have.
Mr. Liebeler.
If you have any indication that Oswald lived in the same apartment house that Ruby's sister lived, I will appreciate it very much if you would supply it to the Commission.
General WALKER. Take a note on that, will you. I believe there is a paper release on it.
Mr. Liebeler.
Do you have any other information that would indicate any connection between Ruby and Oswald? By that question I do not mean to characterize the previous testimony.
General WALKER. If Oswald was the one that was at my house, I wonder where he was from the time he left until he got home, since the Las Vegas Club is not too far from my house.
Mr. Liebeler.
Do you have any indication that Oswald went to that club?
General WALKER. No; I don't.
Mr. Liebeler.
Do you have any other information that would suggest a connection between these two men?
General WALKER. I think the two boxes in the post office are very interesting.
Mr. Liebeler.
Well, are you suggesting that because two men both happened to have post office boxes in the same post office, that that suggests there is some connection between them and indicates conspiracy to assassinate the President?
General WALKER. The boxes were rented the same week.
Mr. Liebeler.
Were what?
General WALKER. I believe the boxes were arranged the same week in the post office.
Mr. Liebeler.
Rented?
General WALKER. Rented.
Mr. Liebeler.
You think that suggests a conspiracy between Oswald and Ruby to assassinate the President?
General WALKER. I think that is more information.
Mr. Liebeler.
But I want to know.
General WALKER. That suggests a possible relationship. I think the fact that Rubenstein shot Oswald suggests plenty. I am convinced he couldn't have shot him except for one basic reason, and maybe many others, but to keep him quiet. That is what shooting people does. I think the whole city of Dallas is very interested. I would be interested in the information on a Professor Wolf, William T. Wolf.
Mr. Liebeler.
Who is he?
General WALKER. William T.
Mr. Liebeler.
What information is that?
General WALKER. The first man we found in the paper that seemed to have come to death after the attempted shot at me.
Mr. Liebeler.
I am not familiar with the circumstances surrounding that. Would you tell me about Dr. Wolf?
General WALKER. William T. Wolf is a professor that was supposedly burned up in an apartment, which seems impossible to have burned a man up, a normal man with his normal faculties, because the apartment, he couldn't have been trapped in it on the first floor.
Mr. Liebeler.
Did you know Dr. Wolf?
General WALKER. Never heard of him until I read about him in the paper, and I believe I read about him 8 days after they shot at me.
