Mr. Steele. No. I got rid of the ones I had left.
Mr. Jenner. Do you remember telling the FBI that you threw the remainder of the leaflets in a trash can there at the scene?
Mr. Steele. Yes; I threw what I had left in the trash can. I mean, when I left there, I didn't have any with me.
Mr. Jenner. You threw the remaining leaflets away that you had?
Mr. Steele. Yes, sir; I threw them in the trash can around there some place, but after leaving that spot, you know. I mean, the can wasn't right there where I was passing them out.
Mr. Jenner. Did you have any conversation with Oswald about whether these leaflets were or were not communistic in nature?
Mr. Steele. I did ask him if they were communistic, and he said they were not. He said they were from an organization affiliated with Tulane University, or something to that effect, of somehow being connected with Tulane. I believe I had asked him something about the leaflets before, and he told me about them being connected with Tulane—some connection there. I don't remember exactly what he said, but I do remember him telling me about that, you know, the other time I asked him, and so then I told him I didn't want any more to do with it, and he gave me the $2.
Mr. Jenner. He did persist in your continuing to pass them out?
Mr. Steele. No; he didn't.
Mr. Jenner. Did he deny they had any connection with communism, in so many words?
