such an extent that the Arnerimn people no
longer take anything for granted. The most
recent victim of the credibility gap is the
Warren Commission's "official" version of
the assassination of President John F.
Kennedy in Dallas almost 12 years ago.
According to a recent Gallup Poll, a.
majority of Americans no longer believe the
W»arren Commission's report which
concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald was the
sole assassin. --
The disbelief, combined with charges that
the CIA was responsible for- the
assassination, has even led the Rockefeller
Commission on the ClA to take up the
question of the agency's role in the
assassination. _
'
.
'
Political activist Dick Gregory, who says
he has evidence linking the CIA .to
Kennedy's death, has testified before the
‘commission headed by Vice President
Rockefeller. -‘
_
Gregory claims that E. Howard Hunt was
caught by Dallaspofice at the site of _the
assassination minutes after it happened.
Hunt, convicted two years ago in connection
with the. Watergat bugging, was a CIA
agent at the time [Kennedy was killed.
Gregory's casq rests on a photograph
published last year in underground
newspapers which allegedly shows ‘Hunt and
Frank A. Sturgis, also convicted in
connection with Watergate and believed to-
have been a CIA employe, being led away
by Dallas policemen from a grassy knoll
across the street from the Texas school book~
depository. Oswald allegedly shot the
president from the depository, as' the
presidential motorcade had passed by._ Many

Many different pieces of "evidence" have
been put together by individuals over the
years. The latest "proof" is based or
analysis of tape recordings of Oswald’s voice
by a new device, used to a certain extent by
some law enforcement agencies, that car
determine the truth or falsehood or :-
person's statements much like ,2. polygrupt
(lie detector). Oswald's statements tr
television and radio _reporters.after he was it
custody ofpolice that he was not responsible
for the Kennedy assassination -wen
analyzed and the results showed that he wa:
telling the truth.

The" assassinations of not only Joht
Kennedy but also Robert Kennedy ant
leaders of the people's movements-
Malcolm X. Fred Hampton. and Marti:
Luther King—was the -
subject of a
conference on the "Politics of Conspiracy’
held 'in Boston early this.'year. Th,
conference brought together overfl l50t
people from every section of the~counti'y ant
was sponsored by‘ the Cambridge
Mass.-based Assassinations investigation.-
Bureau (AIB). Though generally united Ol
purpose, the conference reflected 1
difference in views“ between thosewho pu
forward a conspiracy theory" of history am
those with an anti-imperialist perspective.
