Mr. And did you talk about difi'erent subjects nt different times?
As I understand it. the first time he came there, he was primarily concerned
about his discharge, is that correct?
Mr. ANDEEWS. Well, I may have the subject matter of the visits reversed be-
eause with the company he kept and the conversation-he could talk fairly
well--I figured that this was another one of what we call in my office free
alley clients, so we didn't maintain the normalcy with the file that--might have
seratebed a few notes on a piece of pad, and 2 days Inter threw the whole thing
away. Didn't pay too much attention to him. Qnly time I really paid atten-
tion to this hoy, "was in the frout of the Maison Blanche Building giving out
theakooky strothings
Mr. LABBELER. When was this, approxImately?
Mr. ANDREWS. I don't-remember. I was coming from the NBC building, and
I walked past him. You know how you see somebody, recognize him. So
I
turned nround, came bnek, and asked him what he was doing giving that junk
out. Ile said it was a job. 1 reminded him of the $25 he owed the office. Ilo
said be would come over there, but he never did.

Mr. LIEBELER. Do you remember telling the that he told you that he was
day for haudling out these teaflets?
Mr. ANDREWS. I could have told them that. I know I reminded him of the
$25. I may have it confused, the $25. What do recall, he said it was_a job.
I guess I asked him how much he was making. They were little square chits a
little bit smaller than the pieture you have of him over there [indicating].
Mr. Ile was handing out these leaflets?
Mr. ANDREWS. They were black-and-white pamphlets extolling the virtues of

Mr. LIEBELER. Could it have been yellow paper
Mr. ANDREWS. I am totally colorblind. I wouldn't know. But I think It is
black and white.
Mr. LIEBELER. You are colorblind?
Mr. ANDREWS. Yes. Most of them wanted it around there. You give it to
them, the people look nt it and they drop it, right now.
Mr. LIERELER. Do you remember what day of the week this was that you saw

Mr. ANDREWS. 021 Caunl Street. It is on this side. It Is bounded by Dauphine
aud Burgundy.
Mr. How far Is it from the International Trade Mart?
Mr. ANDREWS. It depends on what route you take. If you come up Camp
Street, it would be two blocks to Canal and four blocks toward the cemetery;
so it would be nhout six blocks. It would be six blocks no matter which way
you weut, but you would wall four blocks on Common Street or Gravier, and
then two biocks over the other why.
