(Testimony of Bernard William Weissman Resumed)

Mr. Jenner.
In the envelope I now show you marked Commission Exhibit No. 1037-A?
Mr. Weissman.
Yes.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 1037-A for identification.)
Mr. Jenner.
Addressed to you. Was there something further enclosed with those?
Mr. Weissman.
I think this piece.
Mr. Jenner.
Which is Commission Exhibit No. 1037-B.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No 1037-B for identification.)
Mr. Jenner.
This is a handbill of Young Americans For Freedom, Inc.
Mr. Weissman.
That's right.
Mr. Jenner.
You received all three documents I have now identified as Commission Exhibits Nos. 1037, 1037-A, and 1037-B in due course through the U.S.
Mr. Weissman.
Yes; I did.
Mr. Jenner.
Next to the last of this series is a letter, single page marked Commission Exhibit No. 1038, dated June 26, 1963, at Dallas, Tex., addressed to "Dear Bernie" signed again in typewriting as "Larrie." Have you seen that document before?
Mr. Weissman.
Yes; I have.
Mr. Jenner.
When did you first see it?
Mr. Weissman.
When I received it in the mail.
Mr. Jenner.
I show you an envelope marked Commission Exhibit No. 1038-A.
(The document was marked Commission Exhibit No. 1038-A for identification.)
Mr. Jenner.
Is that envelope the envelope in which Commission Exhibit 1038 was enclosed?
Mr. Weissman.
Yes; and as a reference, the handwriting on the outside of these envelopes on this and the other exhibits that refer to the contents were put on by me about a week ago, so I could identify it.
Mr. Jenner.
Please read what you have written on the face of Commission Exhibit No. 1038-A.
Mr. Weissman.
"Ready to take over YAF. Jones in Dallas. Ducharme Club."
Mr. Jenner.
And that Ducharme Club is the club, the private club, semiprivate club in Dallas that you mentioned in your testimony this morning.
Mr. Weissman.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Lastly, a single-page exhibit, Commission Exhibit No. 1039, dated at Munich, Germany, on July 31, 1963.
(The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 1039 for identification.)
Mr. Jenner.
This purports to be a copy of a letter apparently from you to Larrie Schmidt, is that correct, sir?
Mr. Weissman.
That's right.
Mr. Jenner.
And this is a carbon copy of the actual letter?
Mr. Weissman.
That's right.
Mr. Jenner.
Did you mail the original of this?
Mr. Weissman.
I did.
Mr. Jenner.
To whom?
Mr. Weissman.
Larrie Schmidt.
Mr. Jenner.
On or about the date this letter bears?
Mr. Weissman.
That's right.
Mr. Dulles.
What date is that?
Mr. Jenner.
July 21, 1963.
On Commission Exhibit No. 1043, which is the envelope which enclosed several other exhibits, there is some handwriting. It that yours?
Mr. Weissman.
Yes.
Mr. Jenner.
Would you read it.
Mr. Weissman.
"Membership List 1962. Code of Conduct and Introduction to CUSA. Ultimatum."
