Mr. Belin.

Did you notice anything particularly about the books that were in the southeast corner?

Mr. Truly.

I didn't at that time with the exception of a few cartons that were moved. But, I did not know any pattern that the boys used in putting these cartons up there. They were just piled up there more or less at that time

Mr. Belin.

Well, handing you what has been marked as Exhibit 503, which is a picture, does this appear to portray the southeast corner of the sixth floor as you saw it on November 22d?

Mr. Truly.

Yes, sir.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit. No. 503 for identification.)

Mr. Belin.

Now, I notice some rows of books along the east wall. Did those books go all the way to the corner or not?

Mr. Truly.

They did not in front of the window extend very much in height, but they did go all the way on the floor to the corner of the building.

Mr. Belin.

Was this prior to November 22d?

Mr. Truly.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Belin.

When you got there on November 22d, did those books still go to the corner of the east wall of the sixth floor?

Mr. Truly.

No, sir. There were several cartons that had been moved out of the corner and apparently placed on top of the cartons next to them in front of the east window -

Mr. Belin.

Do you have any books that are called Rolling Readers?

Mr. Truly.

Yes sir.

Mr. Belin.

Do you know what floor those Rolling Readers are usually kept on?

Mr. Truly.

The first floor and the sixth floor. Most of them are on the sixth floor.

Mr. Belin.

Do you know where on the sixth floor the Rolling Readers are?

Mr. Truly.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Belin.

Approximately where?

Mr. Truly.

They were I would say they were thirty or forty feet from the corner. They were not in the area that the boys moved books from.

Mr. Belin.

Well, handing you Exhibit 483, I wonder if you would mark with your pen the letters "RR" for Rolling Readers. Would there have been any occasion at all to move any Rolling Readers from the area you have marked on Exhibit 483 to the southeast corner of the sixth floor?

Mr. Truly.

No, sir; because the boys had not finished much of the ply wood work, and they would-- none of that stock was moved at that time for any purpose.

Mr. Belin.

Are the Rolling Reader cartons average size or small size or large size?

Mr. Truly.

They are much smaller than the average size cartons on that floor.

Mr. Mccloy.

Do you in, tend to offer all of these exhibits en bloc later on?

Mr. Belin.

Yes, sir.
Now, handing you Commission Exhibit 504, there appear to be some boxes near a window on a floor of your building. And I note that on two of the boxes they are marked "Ten Rolling Readers." Are those the Rolling Reader cartons that you referred to, with the letters "RR" on Commission Exhibit 483
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 504 for identification.)

Mr. Truly.

Yes, sir; that is right.

Representative Ford.

The Rolling Reader boxes were not ordinarily in that southeast corner?

Mr. Truly.

No, sir. That was not the place for them. They were 40 feet or so away.

Representative Ford.

May I ask--the job that Oswald had, how did you designate it?

Mr. Truly.

Well, he filled orders.

Representative Ford.

He was an order filler?

Mr. Truly.

Order filler.
