Mr. Jenner. And you came to this country in 1938?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. May of 1938.
Mr. Jenner. May of 1938, I think it was. What did you do to sustain yourself?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Well, I brought some money with me. I brought some money with me—something like $10,000, I would say.
Mr. Jenner. And what did you immediately do in connection with that?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. What did I do immediately?
Mr. Jenner. I mean did you enter into——
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. I started looking for a job, very unsuccessfully, if I may say so. In New York in those days, in 1938. I even started selling perfumes, I remember, for a company called Chevalier Garde.
Mr. Jenner. Did you have any interest in that company?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. No; just purely as a salesman. I even sold some materials for Shumaker and Company.
