Didn't we talk some time about it?

I don't know whether it was consulting about how to try it or anything. But I know I talked to Waggoner's office some time within 2 or 3 days, but I don't know whether it was before the Ruby assault or not. But he doesn't actually——

Mr. Rankin. Does the Texas attorney general have any jurisdiction to tell you how to try such cases?

Mr. Wade. No sir; I think Waggoner will agree with that. They don't have any jurisdiction to try criminal cases other than antitrust, but I assume we would ask for their assistance if we wanted it. We don't generally, and I don't, the law doesn't contemplate that.

Mr. Rankin. Mr. Carr didn't try to tell you in any way how to handle either case?

Mr. Wade. Not that I know of.

Mr. Carr. Off the record.

(Discussion off the record.)

Mr. Dulles. May we proceed.

Mr. Rankin. Mr. Wade, will you give us the substance of what Mr. Carr said to you and what you said to him at that time?
