Mr. Weissman. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. Of which you are the author, and you said you would still stand by that particular one.
Mr. Weissman. A hundred percent; yes, sir.
Mr. Jenner. Now, are there any others with which you had a measure of disagreement, or any other which you now would not wish to support or, as you put it, stand back of?
Mr. Weissman. There was one other that I thought was being a little rough on the President, but which I didn't particularly agree with a hundred percent.
Mr. Jenner. Identify it, please.
Mr. Weissman. It was in the question that read, "Why has Gus Hall, head of the U.S. Communist Party, praised almost every one of your policies and announced that the party will endorse and support your reelection in 1964?
I personally thought that the selection of this particular question tended to put President Kennedy in a light where he is voluntarily accepting this support—in other words, sort of calling him a Communist, which I felt he was not. And, at the same time, though, I had a reservation about making a big furor over it, because of the fact, if nothing else, if the President did read it, he might realize something, and he just might do something about it, in foresaking the support. So I let it go at that.
Mr. Dulles. When you spoke, then, of selection from a list—was that the list to which you referred before, which I believe you said came from the Birch Society?
Mr. Jenner. A list of 50 questions.
