Mr. Martello. I wouldn't know exactly, to my recollection, whether or not he was being truthful in that particular area.
Mr. Liebeler. In the next paragraph—go ahead—are you through?
Mr. Martello. Yes, sir.
Mr. Liebeler. In the next paragraph of your report, you indicate that Oswald told you that there were about 35 members of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee here in New Orleans. Did you have any reason to question that statement?
Mr. Martello. I didn't believe it was a true statement because of the fact that there was very little activity, to my knowledge, of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee in the city of New Orleans, and since it was such a new organization, or which appeared to me to be a new organization in the city, it didn't seem likely there would be 35 members in the community.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you ever become aware of the existence of any other member of the group in New Orleans——
Mr. Martello. No, sir.
Mr. Liebeler. Other than Oswald?
Mr. Martello. No; other than information that had been developed that there were some possible connections. However, there was no basis in fact that any other person, to my knowledge, was a member of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. This particular man, Oswald, was the first person that I have come in contact with that I knew for a fact stated he was a member of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee.
Mr. Liebeler. He is not only the first person you came in contact with who indicated he was a member of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, but he is the only one that you ever saw or heard of in the city of New Orleans? Is that correct?
