TESTIMONY OF C. E. HULSE
The testimony of C. E. Hulse was taken at 4:30 p.m., on April 1, 1964,
in the office of the U.S. attorney, 301 Post Office Building, Bryan
and Ervay Streets, Dallas, Tex., by Mr. Leon D. Hubert, Jr., assistant
counsel of the President’s Commission.
Mr. HUBERT. This is the deposition of Officer C. E. Hulse. Mr. Hulse,
my name is Leon Hubert, and I am a member of the advisory staff of the
General Counsel of the President’s Commission. Under the provisions
of the Executive Order 11130, dated November 29, 1963, the Joint
Resolution of Congress No. 137, and the rules of procedure adopted
by the Commission in conformance with this joint resolution and the
Executive order, I have been authorized to take the sworn deposition of
you. I state to you that the general nature of the Commission’s inquiry
is to ascertain, evaluate, and report upon the facts relating to the
assassination of President Kennedy and the subsequent violent death of
Lee Harvey Oswald.
In particular to you, Mr. Hulse, the nature of the inquiry today is to
determine the facts that you know about the death of Oswald and any
other pertinent facts you may know about the general inquiry, and more
particularly, about your actions with respect to putting the radio call
on the air and so forth.
Now, you have appeared here by virtue of a general request made by
Mr. J. Lee Rankin, General Counsel of the Commission. Under the rules
adopted by the Commission, you are normally entitled to a 3-day written
notice before you are required to testify, but the rules also provide
you can waive that notice if you wish to do so. So, I ask you now if
you are willing to waive the 3-day notice that you would normally be
entitled to?
Mr. HULSE. I do.
Mr. HUBERT. Will you rise, and raise your right hand so as to be sworn.
Do you solemnly swear that the testimony that will be given in this
matter will be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,
so help you God?
Mr. HULSE. I do.
Mr. HUBERT. Will you state your name, please.
Mr. HULSE. C. E. Hulse.
Mr. HUBERT. Your age?
Mr. HULSE. Thirty-one.
Mr. HUBERT. Where do you live, sir?
Mr. HULSE. 7825 Gayglen.
Mr. HUBERT. Dallas?
Mr. HULSE. Yes.
Mr. HUBERT. What is your occupation, sir?
