Mr. Jenner. Now, with respect to the Fair Play for Cuba Committee activity, had you up to this moment heard of Lee Harvey Oswald's activities, if any, of any character and to any extent, with respect to the Fair Play for Cuba Committee?
Mrs. Paine. I had not heard of any such activities.
The name of the committee was not mentioned. I did not know the name of the committee until it appeared in the newspapers after the assassination.
Mr. Jenner. Now, how did Lee Harvey Oswald describe that? What did he say?
Mrs. Paine. He said that he was passing out pro-Castro or pro-Cuba literature, and that there were some anti-Castro people who also caused some disturbance, and that he had spent the night in jail.
Mr. Jenner. And did I understand you correctly to say that he assigned that as a possible——
Mrs. Paine. No, on the contrary.
Mr. Jenner. As possibly having had some effect on his loss of position?
Mrs. Paine. On the contrary, he made the point that he had already lost his job before this happened.
Mr. Jenner. That he had lost his position before the Fair Play for Cuba incident?
