Mr. Jenner. In the course of that employment, did the occasion arise in which you met officially a man by the name of Lee Harvey Oswald?
Mr. Brooks. Yes; he was referred to me by the placement division.
Mr. Jenner. Now give us the circumstances, first, so that someone reading the transcript will be able to comprehend the circumstances under which this young man was referred to you.
Mr. Brooks. As I remember it, he was referred to me because he had shown reluctance to accept employment in the industrial field, and therefore, this is one of the reasons they send a man to the counseling division, and this is how he came to me.
Mr. Jenner. Came to your division?
Mr. Jenner. I take it then that the Texas Employment Commission—let's use a hypothetical now at the moment: Assume there has been an applicant for employment. There appear to be positions open in the industrial field. The applicant indicates some reluctance to accept, to seek, at least, employment in the industrial field, but mentions preference for some other field. The fact that there is a reference to you does not necessarily mean, does it, that the applicant is one who is inclined to "gold brick" and is not really looking for a job?
Mr. Brooks. Nothing in conference like that.
Mr. Jenner. Tell us what the industrial field is?
Mr. Brooks. The industrial field, of course, is primarily jobs with factories, actually. That includes skilled and semiskilled jobs, and also in our industrial office, truck driving and service station work is also included in this field. But primarily it is an office where the factory employer calls in for factory laborers, whether they be skilled or unskilled.
