Warren Commission (09 of 26): Hearings Vol. IX (of 15)
United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. DE MOHRENSCHILDT. I raised the question because he had been to
Soviet Russia. He could be anything, you see. And he could be right
there watched day and night by the FBI. I did not want to get involved,
you see. And I distinctly remember, No. 1, that George Bouhe said that
he had checked with the FBI. Secondly, that in my mind Max Clark was
in some way connected with the FBI, because he was chief of security
at Convair--he had been a chief of security. And either George Bouhe
or someone else told me that he is with the FBI to some extent. You
never ask people "Are you from the FBI?" And to me it is unimportant.
But somehow in my mind I had this connected. And so my fears were
alleviated, you see. I said, "Well, the guy seems to be OK." Now, I am
not so clear about it, but I have the impression to have talked--to
have asked about Lee Oswald also Mr. Moore, Walter Moore.
Mr. JENNER. Who is Walter Moore?
Mr. DE MOHRENSCHILDT. Walter Moore is the man who interviewed me on
behalf of the Government after I came back from Yugoslavia--G. Walter
Moore. He is a Government man--either FBI or Central Intelligence. A
very nice fellow, exceedingly intelligent who is, as far as I know--was
some sort of an FBI man in Dallas. Many people consider him head of FBI
in Dallas. Now, I don't know. Who does--you see. But he is a Government
man in some capacity. He interviewed me and took my deposition on my
stay in Yugoslavia, what I thought about the political situation there.
And we became quite friendly after that. We saw each other from time
to time, had lunch. There was a mutual interest there, because I think
he was born in China and my wife was born in China. They had been to
our house I think once or twice. I just found him a very interesting
person. When I was writing this book of mine, a very peculiar incident
occurred.
Mr. JENNER. Which book?
Mr. DE MOHRENSCHILDT. The last one--the travelogue. One day we left
for Houston on a business trip, and I left all my typewritten pages,
some 150 typewritten pages, in my closet. When I returned from the trip
and started looking through the pages, which had not been touched,
supposedly, by anybody I noticed small marks on the pages--"No. 1"
after five pages, "2"--small marks with a pencil, another five pages,
No. 3, and so on and so forth.
I told my wife "Jeanne, have you fiddled around with my book?" She
said, "Of course not." I said, "That's impossible." And I forgot it for
a while.
