Mr. Hubert. According to the records, there were no earnings reported for you by anybody nor did you apparently report any yourself from July roughly of 1958 until January 1 of 1962, or the first part of 1962.
Mr. Senator. Approximately about 4 weeks ago the Internal Revenue had me and they called me right after I got off the witness stand at the Jack Ruby trial that they wanted to see me.
Mr. Hubert. Go ahead.
Mr. Senator. They gave me a notice to come up and see them. They allowed me 10 days to come up and see them, which I did.
When I was unemployed, when I lost my job I think it was in 1958, when I was with Rhea, which is a very depressing feeling, I don’t know how to explain this, I really don’t know how to explain it to you, I didn’t file. Why I didn’t file I can’t even answer, I don’t know why I didn’t file.
Mr. Hubert. Before you get to that, maybe we ought to get to this part.
You say you lost your job. You are talking about being with Smoler’s?
Mr. Senator. No; that was with Rhea.
Mr. Hubert. You were with Smoler’s a long time. What caused you to lose your job there?
Mr. Senator. With Smoler Brothers?
