Mr. Weissman. We had also discussed getting some people in with General Walker, getting some people into the John Birch Society.
Mr. Jenner. Stick with General Walker for a moment. To what extent were you able to infiltrate, as you call it, General Walker's group?
Mr. Weissman. Well, this was rather a fiasco. Larrie's brother, as I mentioned in the letter—Larrie's brother went to work for General Walker.
Mr. Jenner. What was his name?
Mr. Weissman. I don't know his first name. But Larrie led me to believe his brother was some guy. His brother is about 29. And the only thing I ever heard from Larrie about his brother was good; and when he mentioned that his brother had joined the Walker organization, I figured this is another step in the right direction. In other words, he was solidifying his argument as to why I should come to Dallas.
Mr. Jenner. And this is what he told you?
Mr. Weissman. Right. So when I got to Dallas, I found that Larrie's brother drank too much, and he had—well, I considered him a moron. He didn't have any sense at all. He was very happy with $35 a week and room and board that General Walker was giving him as his chauffeur and general aide. And so I tossed that out the window that we would never get into the Walker organization this way.
Mr. Jenner. This man's name, by any chance, was not Volkmar?
Mr. Weissman. This name is entirely unfamiliar to me. Never heard it before.
Senator Cooper. Could you identify the Walker organization? You keep speaking of the Walker organization.
