Told Oswald dangerous
FBI sits on data
Associated Press
HOUSTON — A Texas news
paper says the FBI and Dallas police
officials suppressed for at least five
months a statement which quoted
an FBI agent as saying Lee Harvey
Oswald was capable of assassinating
President John F. Kennedy.
The Houston Chronicle said Dal
las Police Chief Jesse Curry finally
told of his role in the coverup in a
registered, confidential letter to
Chief Justice Earl Warren on May

28, 1964. However, the commis
sion, which said Oswald acted alone
in the slaying, dropped the matter
without further investigating, the
newspaper said.
The Chronicle, in a copyright
story in its Monday editions, said
the written statement was made by
Dallas Police Lt. Jack Revill.
Revill’s statement said FBI agent
James Hosty told Revill a few hours
after Kennedy was killed in Dallas
Nov. 22, 1963, that the FBI had
advance information that Oswald
was capable of committing the
crime.
However, Reville’s statement
was kept locked in a desk at the
Dallas Police Department for five
months, the Chronicle said. The
newspaper said the documents on
Revill’s statement and the five-
month coverup are among papers of
the Texas Court of Inquiry and are
now in the Texas State Archives in
Austin.
In his letter to Warren, Curry,
now in charge of security at a Dallas
bank, said he instructed Revill to
keep his statement confidential
after he was requested to do so by J.
Gordon Shanklin, then special
agent in charge of the Dallas FBI.
The Chronicle published a copy
of Curry’s letter to Warren in its
Monday editions.
Curry produced Revill’s state
ment to the Warren Commission
April 22, 1964 and Hosty and Revill
were summoned to testify.
Re\ ill stood by his statement, the
Chronicle said, but Hosty denied
that the FBI had information that
Oswald capable of killing the Presi
dent. The Warren Commission, in
its final report, dismissed the inci
dent as a disagreement “about the
conversation which took place bet
ween them.

“There’s no doubt in my mind
that his (Shanklin s) agent told my
agent (Revill) what he did,” the
Chronicle quoted Curry as saying
now.
The Chronicle said there is no re
cord in the archives that Warren or
anyone else from the Warren
Commission answered Curry’s let
ter.
Today, Curry says the commis
sion “probably forgot about it.”
Hosty, still with the bureau in
Kansas City, declined to discuss any
aspect of the Kennedy assassination
in a recent interview, the Chronicle
said.
“I’m still with the bureau: I like
my job; 1 can’t say anything about
anything,” the newspaper quoted
him as saying.
Shanklin, retired from the FBI
and now an attorney in Dallas, de
nied he told Curry to suppress the
statement.
“I don’t know what he’s (Curry)
talking about,’ the Chronicle
quoted Shanklin as saying recently.
“ . . . So many things happened
that day ... I may have called
Curry about one thing or another,
but I don t remember calling him to
tell him to suppress anything. I
don’t know what he’s talkingabout. ”
Revill, now with the tactical divi
sion of the Dallas Police Depart
ment, said he stands by his state
ment to this day.
“You bet I do. It happened. I
know it happened, and Hosty knows
it happened. 1 hated to do it at the
time, write it down like that, be
cause I knew Hosty would get
crucified. It s tragic the way he was
ostracized by the bureau.
Curry said he told newsmen
about the Revill report when he re
ceived it, saying he had information
that the FBI knew of Oswald’s pre
sence in Dallas.
Within minutes, Curry said,
Shanklin was on the telephone ask
ing Curry to retract the statement.
“I then appeared before the press
again,” Curry said recently, “and
retracted my statement to this ex
tent; I stated that of my own per
sonal knowledge I did not know that
the FBI knew of Oswald’s presence
in DalLis.
The Revill statement was re
vealed first when Curry personally
deliv ered it to the Warren Commis
sion April 22, 1964.
Park land
could be
doubled
A proposal to double the amount
of park land dedicated by develop
ers to die city will be discussed at a
public meeting of the College Sta
tion City Council park land dedica
tion subcommittee tonight at 7. The
meeting will be in the council room
of City Flail at 1101 Texas Ave.
The proposal would require de
velopers to dedicate an acre for each
100 dwelling units constructed in
stead of an acre for every 200 dwel
ling units under the present ordi
nance.
The proposal would also ensure
sufficient payment from developers
if the city requests a cash settlement
instead of the land.
