Mr. HOSTY. Lee Oswald.
Mr. McCLOY. Oswald. And that would cover certainly any connection with
Mr. Ruby?
Mr. HOSTY. That is correct.
Mr. McCLOY. Have you ever interviewed Mr. Ruby?
Mr. HOSTY. No, sir.
Mr. McCLOY. I think that is all I have.
The CHAIRMAN. Are there any other questions?
Congressman Ford?
Representative FORD. I think earlier, Mr. Hosty, you indicated that the
case of Oswald was under your jurisdiction?
Mr. HOSTY. Was assigned to me; yes, sir.
Representative FORD. Assigned to you?
Mr. HOSTY. Yes, sir.
Representative FORD. As I recall the language you indicated that
documents or papers or reports came to you?
Mr. HOSTY. Correct.
Representative FORD. Would this go through the special agent in charge
of the Dallas area or what would it be?
Mr. HOSTY. Here would be the procedure. The mail would be received at
the chief clerk's office. They would then match it up with the proper
file, and take it to the supervisor in question.
Representative FORD. Who is that?
Mr. HOSTY. Mr. Kenneth Howe was supervisor of the internal security
squad, and he would get it first, would read it, and then route it to
the agent to whom the case was assigned.
