Mr. Martin. He said it didn't come from the Dallas office. He said it must have come from Washington. The Houston Chronicle brought it out.
Mr. Redlich. By Washington he meant the Washington office?
Mr. Martin. Of the FBI, the Justice Department.
Mr. Redlich. FBI. That was his opinion as to where this information could come from?
Mr. Martin. Yes.
Mr. Redlich. Did you ever ask Mrs. Oswald why she had not revealed this information prior to that time?
Mr. Martin. No. I tried to stay as far away from this investigation as possible, because I didn't want to get into it at all to be real frank about it. I figured there are people better equipped than I to ferret out information and they have methods of doing it that I have no idea about.
Mr. Redlich. At that time, however, you were acting as her business representative.
Mr. Martin. Yes. Because I had to refute something in the paper.
Mr. Redlich. Were you assisting her at that time in the preparation of any narratives that she was preparing in connection with her story?
