United States. Warren Commission
Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald), 1917-1963 -- Assassination; Oswald, Lee Harvey
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Far from it. He was reticent in that respect. But to
help somebody in an emergency, the first one on the street to raise
money for any occasion. Any policeman or fireman got hurt or the
family needed something he is out there right away selling tickets,
and chances are there wasn’t enough, he paid the difference himself
whatever was needed.
Eva told me that, too. He didn’t tell me that. I heard it from people
down in Dallas.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Let me hand you what I have marked as “Washington, D.C.
deposition of Hyman Rubenstein, June 5th, 1964, Exhibit No. 5.” This is
a copy of an interview report prepared by FBI Agent John Golden as a
result of an interview that he had with you in Chicago on December 9,
1963.
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Do you remember that interview?
(Hyman Rubenstein Exhibit No. 5 was marked for identification.)
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Yes; that is the truth like I told you. I don’t
remember the dates. I know how I met John Paul Jones.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Paul Roland Jones.
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. No, John Paul.
Mr. GRIFFIN. The fellow in the trial at Laredo, is that it?
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Yes; how come it is John Paul Jones here?
Mr. GRIFFIN. That is apparently the name you gave. You understood the
man’s name to be John Paul Jones.
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Well, you see I didn’t even know his right name then.
Mr. GRIFFIN. The Jones you met you recall as being named John Paul
Jones?
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Yes; that is the name he gave me.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Are there any corrections or additions you would make to
that statement?
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. No; this is the truth. Jack did not know Jones--Jack
wasn’t down there at the time when I went down there. Eva was alone
down there.
Mr. GRIFFIN. When you say go down there do you mean----
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Dallas. When I had to go down to Laredo I stopped off
in Dallas to see Eva.
Mr. GRIFFIN. But the time you are referring to going to Texas is when
you went to the trial or was it another time?
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. No; regarding this, Laredo.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Yes; and you say when you went to the trial in Laredo it
is your understanding Jack was not living in Dallas?
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Definitely. Do you want me to sign this?
Mr. GRIFFIN. If you would, please. Very good. I say that because I
appreciate your coming here and talking with us and taking this time,
and I will ask you once again if there is anything else----
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. These two things I will get for you.
Mr. GRIFFIN. If you would we would appreciate that.
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. That is all right. It is the least I can do.
Mr. GRIFFIN. If there is anything else?
Mr. RUBENSTEIN. Anything also you might want to know drop me a note and
I will be glad to answer it.
Mr. GRIFFIN. We appreciate your cooperation.
