Mr. Rubenstein. I worked; I worked part time for the Seaboard Lumber Co.
Mr. Griffin. But the reason you were there was because you were waiting to go to Alaska?
Mr. Rubenstein. Definitely. In fact, I had my tools sent to me, my father’s tools.
Mr. Griffin. Had you worked as a carpenter before?
Mr. Rubenstein. Never.
Mr. Griffin. And on your return to Chicago what did you do?
Mr. Rubenstein. I took odd jobs, whatever I could get to make a buck, you know, salesman on the road. I am trying to think what I sold, novelties, premiums, different things that you could get. A lot of items you couldn’t get, there was a scarcity, so you sold what you could obtain from different companies or different friends who were in business.
Mr. Griffin. Did you work for any particular company?
Mr. Rubenstein. I am trying to think. I can’t think of any particular company I worked for. I probably bought stuff myself and sold it on the road.
Mr. Griffin. I have in front of me your social security, a summary of your social security record. Do you remember working for the Arlington Park Jockey Club?
