Mr. Griffin. This must be a, as you look back, this must be an occasion that you have some recollection of.
Mr. Fehrenbach. Yes; because I didn’t know exactly just how to take it I didn’t want to jeopardize my job with Sam Jaffe and I didn’t want to be rude to the man, and so, therefore, I told him that I would have to think about it, and I just kept putting him off.
Mr. Griffin. What did he say on this first occasion?
Mr. Fehrenbach. Well, the first time he talked to me it was about how nice it would be if everybody made the same amount of money.
Mr. Griffin. How did he happen to start that conversation with you?
Mr. Fehrenbach. I don’t know. I was sitting there working and Sam was out, and Phil came in and he was waiting on Sam so he got to talking to me and asked me how I liked the work and I said fine, I loved it.
Mr. Griffin. Were you a hardworking fellow?
Mr. Fehrenbach. Well, I tried to be.
Mr. Griffin. And what sort of wages did you get at that, point?
Mr. Fehrenbach. When I was serving my apprenticeship I was working for $35 a week to start with.
