Mr. RANKIN. When he was unemployed in Dallas, do you know whether he received unemployment compensation? Mrs. OSWALD. We were due to receive unemployment compensation, but it was getting close to the end of his entitlement period, and we received one more check. Mr. RANKIN. Did you discuss with him possible places of employment after his return from Mexico? Mrs. OSWALD. No. That was his business. I couldn't help him in that. But to some extent I did help him find a job, because I was visiting Mrs. Paine's neighbors. There was a woman there who told me where he might find some work. Mr. RANKIN. And when was this? Mrs. OSWALD. I don't remember. If that is important, I can try and ascertain date. But I think you probably know. Mr. RANKIN. Was it shortly before he obtained work? Mrs. OSWALD. As soon as we got the information, the next day he went there and he did get the job. Mr. RANKIN. And who was it that you got the information from? Mrs. OSWALD. It was the neighbor whose brother was employed by the school book depository. He said it seemed to him there was a vacancy there. Mr. RANKIN. What was his name? Mrs. OSWALD. I don't know. The CHAIRMAN. Well, I think we have arrived at our adjournment time. We will recess now until tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. (Whereupon, at 4:30 p.m., the President's Commission recessed.) _Tuesday, February 4, 1964_ TESTIMONY OF MRS. LEE HARVEY OSWALD RESUMED The President's Commission met at 10 a.m. on February 4, 1964, at 200 Maryland Avenue NE., Washington, D.C. Present were Chief Justice Earl Warren, Chairman; Senator John Sherman Cooper, Representative Hale Boggs, Representative Gerald R. Ford, John J. McCloy, and Allen W. Dulles, members. Also present were J. Lee Rankin, general counsel; Norman Redlich, assistant counsel; Leon I. Gopadze and William D. Krimer, interpreters; and John M. Thorne, attorney for Mrs. Lee Harvey Oswald. The CHAIRMAN. The Commission will be in order. Mr. Rankin, will you proceed with the questioning of Mrs. Oswald. Mr. RANKIN. Mrs. Oswald, there are a number of things about some of the material we have been over, the period we have been over, that I would like to ask you about, sort of to fill in different parts of it. I hope you will bear with us in regard to that. Were you aware of the diary that your husband had written and the book that he had typed? Mrs. OSWALD. Yes. Mr. RANKIN. Did he hire a public stenographer to help him with his book? Mrs. OSWALD. No, he wrote his in longhand. He started it in Russia. But he had it retyped here because it had been in longhand. Mr. RANKIN. And do you know about when he started to have it retyped here? Mrs. OSWALD. We arrived in June. I think it was at the end of June. Mr. RANKIN. Do you know what happened to that book, or a copy of it? Mrs. OSWALD. At the present time it is--I don't know where--the police department or the FBI. Mr. RANKIN. And what was done with the diary? Do you know that?
