Mr. Jenner. You eventually tired of Rangely, Colo., and moved over to Aspen, did you not?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. No; I didn't move to Aspen. I just had a little cabin in Aspen. I had a cabin in Aspen, and would go there on weekends. But then I became chairman.
Joe Zorichak resigned his position and moved to Dallas as assistant president of the American Petroleum Institute, assistant to the president of the API. And I was appointed to replace him.
Mr. Jenner. Was it about this time that you took residence in Aspen?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Well, no; about that time. I would say—I didn't take residence. I just had a cabin in Aspen.
But I commuted between Rangely and Aspen.
Mr. Jenner. That is quite a commutation. It is 165 miles, isn't it?
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Nothing for the oil field.
Mr. Jenner. But it takes a long time to get 165 miles.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. 3 hours. But naturally I would go there on the weekend and come back. Probably they accuse me of spending all my time in Aspen. But, anyway, what finally happened is, good or bad, we decided to sever connections with the Rangely Engineering Committee. They decided to stop completely the Rangely Engineering Committee.
