nothing, so I said--well, I didn't leave until December 30 and got all the routine work I had been assigned was gradually shifted to another person. I was there doing nothing. I finally left December 30 and I have received a letter from a friend in California saying my name was in the paper stating that I had been labeled as a communist and I got a call from Florida, from a good friend of mine saying they labeled me a communist and saying I was a friend of Oswald's.
Mr. Ball.
Did you know him?
Mr. Molina.
Oswald?
Mr. Ball.
Yes.
Mr. MOLINA. No; I had seen him there in the building. I had seen him but never talked with him or been introduced.
Mr. Ball.
Where are you working now?
Mr. Molina.
I am working over here that's another thing. I couldn't find a job. Who is going to hire me? So I called this friend of mine he belonged to the Dads Club where I go to church, Holy Trinity. His name is Mr. Redman, vice president at Neuhoff', so I called him about a job and he said "No, I don't have anything in your line of work." I happened to mention to him I used to do credit union work and at that time they happened to be looking for a man and that's the reason I found this particular job.
Mr. Ball.
You are working at Neuhoff's Employees Credit Union.
Mr. Molina.
Yes.

Mr. Ball.
Where--what was the source of the sound?
Mr. Molina.
Sort of like it reverberated, sort of kind of came from the west side; that was the first impression I got. Of course, the first shot was fired then there was an interval between the first and second longer than the second and third.
Mr. Ball.
What did you do after that?
Mr. Molina.
Well, I just stood there, everybody was running and I didn't know what to do actually, because what could I do. I was just shocked.
