Mr. Griffin. He is sensitive about being criticized because he is a Jew?

Mr. Senator. That is right.

Mr. Griffin. But you don’t feel, I take it, that there is necessarily any connection between his sensitivity to being a Jew and his apparent lack of interest in politics?

Mr. Senator. I don’t believe so.

Mr. Griffin. If now in discussing this situation in an atmosphere which I take it is a little bit more relaxed than it was on November 24th, if you were to offer a judgment as to why Jack Ruby didn’t appear to be interested in politics, what would you suggest for the reason?

Mr. Senator. I have no answer for it, but all I can say is these things don’t interest him. He was not interested in these things.

Mr. Griffin. What is his primary interest?

Mr. Senator. Show business.

Mr. Griffin. How about girls? How about sex? Is that an important interest to him?

Mr. Senator. It is as natural for him as it is for any other male human being.
