of our federal bureaucracy there was no action where evidence called for it,and there was action to impute sole blame on Oswald where it was uncalled for. Briefly let us review some of the most (sinister of actions by the federal government's police agents respecting the evidence. Governor Connally's bullet-torn coat and shirt were ignored by the federal police for weeks, and when they were finally my obtained, were dry cleaned and pressed. The dry cleaning and pressing served to obliterate vital evidence necessary for the determination of the direction and type of bullet or bullets which struck the Governor. There was the startling and incrimminate- ing action of the tilen Commander James J. Humes the head of the Bethesda; autopsy teám, who took and burned the original autopsy notes. In a free society the Commission investigating the President! assassination was not permitted to see the X-rays and photograbhs which were taken of the President's body at Bethesda. Can there be any other assumption against this background of suppression that Humes burned the notes because they revealed Kennedy was shot in the front and the back and therefore his wounds were incompatible with an assassination by one man? what happened to Humes as a consequence of his sinster burning of the original autopsy notes? He was promoted from Commander to Captain. Another rational action! After admittedly burning relevant evidence in the crime of the century, a man receives a prp motion from those in power! In addition to the phsycoal evidence already mentioned, there is photographic material , all of which raises serious questions about a conspiracy.
