Mr. Krystinik. No; he didn't. I asked him what his father did, and he said he was an architect, and that was the comment. It seemed there was some mention made about a Communist or a fellow that had communistic interests being at the party, and I asked him what kind of people does your father associate with. He said he didn't know really what his father does. That was his comment. He didn't know what his father does, that he really knows that he is an architect and that is about it. That was Michael's comment.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you ask him what kind of a man his father was?
Mr. Krystinik. No, sir; not really. I talked to him about it very little, and I do know that just shortly after he came back from Los Angeles, Michael did buy this plot of land and he did pay cash, $3,000, and I had the impression that prior to his going to Los Angeles he didn't have the money.
I had that impression because he commented that there was time for him to pay or give—we were talking about church donations during the coffee break one day shortly after that, and he commented that he was really going to have to do something about his bank account, it was time to pay his pledge dues at the Unitarian Church and he didn't have the money in the bank, and 3 or so weeks later he had $3,000, for a plot of land, so I am assuming, I am not a detective, that he had gotten the money from his father or from Art Young, who is his stepfather. One of those two persons, he had gotten the money. He had, if I remember correctly, Art Young was in Texas, so one of these two places he had gotten the money. Those are the impressions I had, that he had gotten it from his father.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you have any discussion about this with Michael?
Mr. Krystinik. No, sir; I didn't. I want to make it clear that I don't know. These are impressions that I had.
Mr. Liebeler. Did Michael tell you that he went to Los Angeles for the purpose of visiting his father?
Mr. Krystinik. No, sir; he didn't state it in that way. He said that his father offered to pay for the plane ticket to the west coast, and he thought it was a wonderful opportunity to visit his father, and this was the discussion prior to his leaving.
Mr. Liebeler. He was not sent to the west coast on business for Bell Helicopter?
Mr. Krystinik. No, sir; he has been sent to Pennsylvania on Bell Helicopter business. I am aware of that.
