Lieutenant Revill. Yes, sir; I asked him that myself.
Mr. Hubert. What did he say?
Lieutenant Revill. Well, he used the same story, that he did not want to become involved in this thing because of his fight or his crusade to dry up the liquor industry.
Mr. Hubert. But, how did he then explain the fact that he had volunteered?
Lieutenant Revill. He didn't explain it. Now, this is an assumption on my part. I believe this is why Mr. Alexander was reluctant to use him, because Mr. Rushing is the type that there is a Communist under each tree or each rock.
Mr. Hubert. How old a man is Rushing?
Lieutenant Revill. Late forty's, or early fifty's.
Mr. Hubert. Has he been in the Dallas area long?
Lieutenant Revill. No, sir; he had just recently moved to Dallas from South Dakota. He tells me he is a personal friend of Senator Mundt and the Governor of South Dakota and other influential people, which may or may not be true.
Mr. Hubert. Did you check to see whether he actually does have a church?
