Mr. Griffin. You said more consideration.
Mr. Johnson. I had a chance to use some of my ideas. They more or less had things fixed where I couldn’t use my imagination, how I wanted to sell and so forth publicitywise, and I got better publicity and so forth.
Mr. Griffin. How was it that you were restricted at the Vegas Club?
Mr. Johnson. Well, more or less they won’t do anything to make the club look decent, where I would invite people out that I felt were special guests, and I just felt like this other club was better equipped, but I wouldn’t mind inviting anyone out there. And I had been at the Vegas Club, and he continued to say, “We are going to do this,” and they never would get around to it.
Mr. Griffin. What sort of things?
Mr. Johnson. I mean like fixing up the club and making it look decent. In fact, it looked the same way it did when I first moved there.
Mr. Griffin. How much of your dealings were with Jack Ruby, and how much of them were with his sister, Eva Grant?
Mr. Johnson. Let’s see; I believe since 1959, all of my dealings were with his sister and not with him. Before then, it was all with him, because she wasn’t in town. She came in from, I don’t know, California, I believe.
Mr. Griffin. Now, do you know that his sister was operated on in November?
Mr. Johnson. Yes.
