Mr. Liebeler. And the impression you received of his attitude toward President Kennedy was one of approval and one of favor?
Mr. Krystinik. I would say yes. I don't know about President Kennedy in general, how he felt, but in reference to the civil rights issue, the impression I had was that he was favorably impressed by Mr. Kennedy.
Mr. Liebeler. Did Oswald express his attitude toward any other government official, during the course of his conversation with you?
Mr. Krystinik. I can't really remember. I have heard Michael Paine comment that Oswald had at one time written a letter and left it laying around the house, and that his wife, Ruth, had found this letter. It was in the typewriter. I can't remember exactly the details, but that he had referred to the notorious FBI. Apparently he didn't care for the FBI.
Mr. Liebeler. Did Michael tell you that before or after the assassination?
Mr. Krystinik. It was after.
Mr. Liebeler. It was after?
Mr. Krystinik. Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler. Prior to the time of the assassination, however, you had no feeling that Oswald had any particular hostility toward any government official or toward the government in general? Would that be a fair statement?
Mr. Krystinik. I can't really say because I don't know the exact time sequence. After a little time is passed, it is hard to pin it down.
