(Testimony of Farrell Dobbs)

Mr. Rankin.
Do. you know anything about the blowups, reversal and reproduction work that he refers to there?
Mr. Dobbs.
I can only assume that he would have written about----
Mr. Watts.
Excuse me. You should answer what you know, Farrell; and if you want to express an opinion, it is all right, but make it very clear whether or not you have any knowledge.
Mr. Dobbs.
Would you ask me the question again; perhaps I did not understand.
Mr. Rankin.
I am interested in your knowledge about that material that is referred to in the letter, the blowups and reproductions and the other things that are referred to in the first paragraph.
Mr. Dobbs.
So far as I can perceive, it refers to a technical process. I wouldn't know anything beyond that.
Mr. Rankin.
And you don't know whether there was anything of that kind; at least you did not find it when you made the search?
Mr. Dobbs.
I have no indication of such information in our search.
Mr. Rankin.
Mr. Chester is still with your organization?
Mr. Dobbs.
He is.
Mr. Rankin.
And you don't recall this Exhibit No. 12 or the original or copies or anything of that kind?
Mr. Dobbs.
No; I do not.
Mr. Rankin.
You did not find it when you made your search?
Mr. Dobbs.
That's right.
Mr. Rankin.
Would you kindly make a search to see if there is such a letter and such materials in your files?
Mr. Dobbs.
Yes; we will look for that.
Mr. Watts.
Mr. Rankin, you are requesting Mr. Dobbs to make a further search to see if he can find the letter and reproductions referred to; is that correct?
Mr. Rankin.
Yes, both; and ff he does find them, to forward them to us so they can be incorporated after they are initialed as a part of the record in this deposition.
(Document marked Dobbs' Exhibit No. 13.)
Mr. Rankin.
Mr. Dobbs, do you recall seeing Dobbs' No. 13?
Mr. Dobbs.
No; I do not.
Mr. Rankin.
Do you recognize the signature?
Mr. Dobbs.
Yes; that would have been one of my associates that helps me in volunteer office work.
Mr. Rankin.
And you recognize the stationery, I suppose?
Mr. Dobbs.
Yes; that appears to be on our letterhead.
Mr. Rankin.
When you made a search of the files, you did not find any letter like Dobbs' No. 13?
Mr. Dobbs.
No; I did not.
Mr. Rankin.
Did you have any information as to whether or not such a letter was sent?
Mr. Dobbs.
No, no. I would assume, in view of the fact that it does appear to be an official party letterhead, that the letter would have been sent, but we would not have kept a file copy of it.
Mr. Rankin.
I See. And you do recognize the signature?
Mr. Dobbs.
Yes.
Mr. Rankin.
Would you kindly initial that, please.
Mr. Dobbs.
(Witness complies.)
Mr. Rankin.
Do you have any recollection of any other correspondence or communications of any kind?
Mr. Dobbs.
No; I do not, sir.
Mr. Rankin.
With Lee Harvey Oswald?
Mr. Dobbs.
I do not.
Mr. Rankin.
You will note that Dobbs' No. 13 refers to a communication from Lee Harvey Oswald of March 24, presumably 1963. Do you recall eve having seen that?
Mr. Dobbs.
No; I do not, and obviously it was not in our ties or we would have included it in the material we turned over to you.
