Mr. Rankin. That was his memorandum book, in which he had a list of numbers of various people and addresses and so forth, is that what you referring to?
Mr. Wade. Yes; and I never have seen the book myself. As a matter of fact, I am trying to get some photos of it, trying to but I haven't gotten them yet.
Mr. Rankin. Now what agency was it rumored he was a member of?
Mr. Wade. It was rumored he worked first for the FBI and then for the CIA.
Mr. Rankin. Is that all you have heard?
Mr. Wade. As a matter of fact, I don't think I had ever heard that until Waggoner Carr called me and told me—I don't think I ever heard that. I did check into it a little, and they were talking it some, and they have actually written it up in the newspapers by rumors or a story or two—rumors of the thing.
Mr. Rankin. Is that the report by the reporter Hudkins?
Mr. Wade. I believe it is. On the Houston paper, Hudkins. I believe we got that introduced in the Ruby trial on the change of venue motion.
Mr. Rankin. Is there anything more that you know about that matter?
Mr. Wade. I know absolutely nothing about it. I might say, I was under the impression, I think when I talked to you and the Chief Justice before, that, you see I was in the FBI, and I was under the impression and I think maybe I told you all that we didn't list our informant by name. The FBI have been kind enough to send down some of my old vouchers on paying informants back in, down in South America, and I see that we did list them by name which I—probably may, if I said otherwise it was just my recollection on the thing but in that case I was listing informants from South America that we were paying when I was there.
