Revill

Mr. DODD. You said, and I will quote, you said in 1964, I will quote your response to Mr. Rankin, just so you can refresh your memory and you can correct it if you would like, this is your testimony: “And. Mr. Hosty ran over to me and he says, Jack, as I recall these words, a Communist killed President Kennedy.
“I said, What?
“He said, Lee Oswald killed President Kennedy.
“I said, Who is Lee Oswald?
“He said, He is in our Communist file. We knew he was here in Dallas.
“At that time Hosty and I started walking off, and Detective Bryan as well as I recall, sort of stayed back and so forth.”
Then he also states to you that at that time, according to your testimony in 1964, that they knew, that he knew, Jim Hosty knew, that Lee Oswald was capable of killing the President. You became upset at that?
Mr. REVILL. Yes, sir.
Mr. DODD. Is that a fair—
Mr. REVILL. That is a fair”-
