FIRST REPORTS OUT OF DALLAS
THE DALLAS MORNING NEWS, 11/24/63
A fingerprint expert has obtained evidence which allegegdly links
Lee Harvey Oswald with the assassination of President Kennedy.
(No name to this expert or what the fingerprint was found on.
M.P.)
"We've got a print that matches Oswald's," one investigator said.
(Again, no name or location of where this print was found. M.P.)
They (investigators) said that three spent shells found near the
officer's body (Tippit) matched those in the revolver which Oswald
carried in the near-by Texas Theater.
Fritz said a bus transfer slip confirms Oswald's admission that he
drove from the area where President Kennedy was shot to Oak
Cliff, where Officer Tippit was slain, in a bus and a taxi. (There had
been VARIOUS reports that a man fitting Oswald's description was
seen entering a station wagon.)
"The witness said Tippit pulled his car over to the curb and there
was a conversation between Tippit and the murderer," Wade said.
"Tippit got out of his car and started towards the murderer who
pulled his pistol and fired three shots into Tippit's body. He then
ejected the cartridge hulls, reloaded his revolver and fled."
The Texas School Book Depository is privately owned by Jack C.
Cason and O.V. Truly. Oswald was classified as a part-time
employee - a handy man - and earned $1.25 a hour, Cason said.
Truly (R.S., the superintendent of the TSBD) said he saw Oswald
about the building Friday prior to the shooting and said there was
"no indication of nervousness." The next time he saw Oswald was
right after the shooting when he and a Dallas policeman started a
check of the building. "The policeman threw a gun into Oswald's
stomach and asked me if Oswald belonged there. I told him 'yes'
and we both went on up the stairs for a check on the other floors.
Oswald looked a bit startled - just as you or I would if someone
suddenly threw a gun on you - but he didn't appear too nervous nor
panicky." Truly aid he placed "no significance" on Oswald's
presence there "until later when we found him missing and I
reported it."
The building was built in 1903 and is owned by the D. Harold Byrd
Associates. The school depository firm moved in in 1960 and took
a 15 year-lease. It was previously occupied by a wholesale grocery
firm. Cason said they remodelled most of the building, except the
sixth floor where Oswald allegedly stalked his victim. On the first
floor is the general shipping area and the second is the company's
administrative offices. The third and fourth floors are occupied by
publishers' manufacturing representatives. The fifth floor and
basement are used for filling book orders. Cason said the sixth
floor is seldom used. He said an employe might go up there two or
three times a week. There are two freight elevators that go to the
sixth floor, but a passenger elevator only reaches the fourth floor.
Lee Harvey Oswald, charged with murdering President Kennedy,
was interviewed by the FBI here six days before the Friday
assassination. But word of the interview with the former defector
to Russia was not conveyed to the U.S. Secret Service and Dallas
police, reliable soures told The Dallas Morning News Saturday.
However, in Washington, a spokesman for the FBI said it was
"incorrect" that the FBI had questioned Oswald or had him under
surveillance at any time in resent months, the Associated Press
reported. The interview reportedly was held Nov. 16 - at a time
when the Secret Service and police officials were coordinating
security plans for the President's ill-fated Dallas visit. These
sources said the Oswald interview added more data to an already
"thick file" the FBI has on the 24-year old avowed Marxist who
defected to Russia in 1959 and returned in 1962.
In retracting his earlier statement about the FBI interview, Curry
told gathered reporters: "I do not want to accuse the FBI of
withholding information. They have no obligation to help us."
In an article printed in the Early City Edition from the North
American Newspaper Alliance, written by Priscilla Johnson on her
interview with Oswald in Moscow, she states: "He had no friends in
Russia and he didn't speak a word of the language."
