Mr. Liebeler. Did you ever know how much money he was making at his job in Fort Worth?
Mrs. Meller. No; no idea.
Mr. Liebeler. Did he say anything to you about repayment of a loan that the United States had made to him?
Mrs. Meller. Yes; he said that he has to pay to Embassy back money and that's what he was doing and he had to send certain amount to American Embassy to pay their passage but I never asked how much.
Mr. Liebeler. But you knew or he told you at that time that he was making payments to the American Government?
Mrs. Meller. Yes; he was paying; if I am not wrong, I think he say he mentioned he had to pay and what is left he will never say and I think it was not much at all.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you ever give any money to Marina or did you just confine your help to buying groceries and clothes and giving her clothes and buying the playpen and that sort of thing?
Mrs. Meller. Well, I give her $5.00 some good soul give it to me and I give her $5.00 and I spend two or $3.00, little bit, not as much as George Bouhe. It's our very good friend, George Bouhe; he—we haven't so very much and he is person who helps everybody. I mean, he never—how to explain—interested what nationality you are. If you are in need and you are not lazy, let me point that out, he is willing to help with his strength, with his car go with you and help everywhere.
Mr. Liebeler. Do you remember who gave you the $5.00 to give to Marina?
Mrs. Meller. $5.00—my goodness! If I could remember.
