(Testimony of Andrew , Jr. Armstrong Resumed)

Mr. Hubert.
Now, would you look at the rest of those pictures, just taking them as they are and putting them face down, and see if you recognize any of the writings or names or anything else in those pictures?
Mr. Armstrong.
This is Jack's handwriting.
Mr. Hubert.
You recognize Jack's handwriting--in which ones?
Mr. Armstrong.
In all of them that I have seen.
Mr. Hubert.
That's in all of them that you have seen so far?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, at the time you made the remark that you recognized Jack's handwriting, I think you were on the picture that is identified as Exhibit 5305-B. You had also looked at Exhibit 5305-C?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Now I ask you to look at the whole bunch and tell us if they are in Jack's handwriting or not?
(Mr. Armstrong examines instruments referred to.)
Mr. Hubert.
Now, you've gone through the whole series of photographs and, which are photographs of pages of books that have been identified as Exhibit 5305-A through Exhibit 5305-S, and I ask you if you can tell us whose handwriting is in those books?
Mr. Armstrong.
It appears to me that it is Jack's handwriting.
Mr. Hubert.
There's a lot of it that is in print, isn't there?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Do you recognize that?
Mr. Armstrong.
Especially the print.
Mr. Hubert.
His print--you recognize his prints?
Mr. Armstrong.
We both printed more than we wrote.
Mr. Hubert.
You have seen his print before?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
It's your opinion that that is his print?
Mr. Armstrong.
Yes.
Mr. Hubert.
Did you ever see the book before the original of which these exhibits are pictures?
Mr. Armstrong.
No; he always had a little notebook, but it was one that opened--not to pull the page up, but opened just like a regular book, you know, a little small book about 2 inches by 1 1/2 inches--just a very little small book.
Mr. Hubert.
Now, as you went through these pictures, Exhibits 5305-A through 5305-S, did you recognize any names or numbers or addresses?
Mr. Armstrong.
Well, I saw Little Lynn's name there and I saw Tom Palmer's name.
Mr. Hubert.
Tom who?
Mr. Armstrong.
Tom Palmer.
Mr. Hubert.
Who is Tom Palmer?
Mr. Armstrong.
He's one of the union agents--he was the Dallas union agent for the AGVA.
Mr. Hubert.
Do you recognize any other names?
Mr. Armstrong.
I wasn't looking at the names--just mostly handwriting.
Mr. Hubert.
Perhaps you had better go through and look at them with the names in mind and take them one by one and tell us any names you can recognize in anyway. The first one is Exhibit 5305-A, and that's the cover. No. 5305-B is the one- -now, if you recognize anything, stop so that we can identify the exhibit number of the picture that you recognize.
Mr. Armstrong.
I recognize the name "Vegas Club" on the top of that.
Mr. Hubert.
You are talking about Exhibit 5305-D. Is there any significance to you other than that you recognize the name "Vegas Club" on that exhibit?
Mr. Armstrong.
Just that they have some figures there for tax, which is the usual procedure of putting them down-- the usual way.
Mr. Hubert.
Just go on and if you have no recognition of any picture, just pass it without comment.
Mr. Armstrong.
I recognize the print on this as excise tax for the Carousel Club.
Mr. Hubert.
What exhibit are you talking about--is that Exhibit 5305-H?
