Captain WILFRED A. GRUSICH, SR. Deputy Commander,
Traffic Division, New .Orleans Police Department, advised that
following the arrest of LEE HARVEY OSWALD by the Dallas, Texas,
Police Department on November 22, 1963, and the showing of
his picture on television, he recalled that an individual
generally fitting the facial characteristics of OSWALD had
been in the Traffic Division with some Cubans to apply for a
permit to parade.
Captain GRUSICH stated he has been handling all
applications for parade permits for some time. Before a
parade can march in the streets of the City of New Orlenas,
a permit must be secured. Approval must come through him
first before it is approved by the superintendent of police
and the mayor of the City of New Orleans.
Captain GRUSICH stated as best he can recall, some-
time in March, 1962, three individuals came to his office to
secure a parade permit. Two of these persons were, as he
remembers, Cubans who spoke very little English; the third
individual was an American who acted as the spokesman. As
best he can remember, these people represented the Cubans in
exile in the United States, and it was their desire to stage
a parade for the purpose of raising funds to aid Cubans in
Cuba to resist FIDEL CASTRO and his regime. Captain GRUSICH
stated that since this was a controversial sort of a situation,
he discussed the situation with the Superintendent of Police
JOSEPH I. GIARUSSO, and it was felt that such a parade could
possibly create trouble.
Captain GRUSICH could not remember specifically
if these individuals submitted an application to parade.
Captain GRUSICH reviewed all parade applications for as far
back as 1959, and was unable to identify any, either approved
or rejected applications, which he could tie in with this
incident.
Captain GRUSICH said that he had discussed this
incident with Sergeant. GEORGE DE DUAL who is assigned to
the Traffic Division, and DE_DUAL.felt that he had also
seen. either OSWALD or someone .who closely resembled him in
the Traffic Division, attempting to secure a parade permit.
