Mr. Oliver. Yes; plus, of course, the fact that he either executed or murdered Oswald.
Mr. Jenner. Your statement in the right-hand column that “It required a gunman from outside to do the job,” in which you are referring to Rubenstein, was based on what, that is a gunman from outside.
Mr. Oliver. Well, Rubenstein was not a member of the Dallas police.
Mr. Jenner. I see. Someone other than the member of the Dallas police is what you meant to imply.
Mr. Oliver. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. You go on in a subsequent paragraph to say, “As was to be expected a few moments after the shot was fired in Dallas the vermin probably in obedience to general or specific orders issued in advance of the event, began to screech out their disease hatred of the American people and, long after the facts were known to everyone, went on mechanically repeating, like defective phonograph records, the same vicious lies about these ‘radical right’ until fresh orders reached them from headquarters. But the significant fact is that there were enough honest American newsmen, in the United States and abroad, to make it impossible to conceal the conspiracy’s connection with the bungled assassination.”
“That is very encouraging.”
Now, your statement “probably in obedience to general or specific orders issued in advance of the event” I take it that is an inference or an implication you drew from the sources of information already related to us.
Mr. Oliver. Right, from the rapidity and the concert, both, of these attacks on patriotic Americans.
Mr. Jenner. Yes. This is a conclusion or a deduction on your own part of conclusions you reached from the information sources you have indicated, is that correct, sir?
