Mr. Wade. The only thing I remember is the inspector of the FBI whom I don't think I ever met. I was there in the police one time during this shuffle, and I think it was some time Saturday morning, and he said they should have nothing, no publicity on the thing, no statements.
Now, I don't know whether that was after Ruby shot Oswald or before, I don't know when it was, but I did talk with him and I know his concern which was that there was too much publicity.
Mr. Rankin. And he told you that, did he?
Mr. Wade. At some stage in it. I am thinking it was Sunday night which I know I talked with him Sunday night, but we are not that far along with it yet. But I don't know whether I talked to him previously or not.
Mr. Rankin. That is the only conversation of that type that you recall with any Federal officer?
Mr. Wade. That is all I recall. I am sure Barefoot and I discussed the publicity angle on it some, but I don't remember Barefoot suggesting how we handle it, but neither one of us knew whether it was his offense or mine, to begin with, for 2 or 3 hours because we had to select it.
Mr. Rankin. Do you know what Barefoot said about publicity when you did discuss it with him?
Mr. Wade. I don't recall anything.
Mr. Rankin. All right.
What happened next, as you recall?
