Mr. O'CONNOR. And admitted in the record at the appropriate place. I have no further questions. Mr. HAYS. Are there any questions? Mr. NEDZI. I have a question, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Warren, you testified that you had made some personal trips to New York. How many did you make? The WITNESS. I do not remember offhand how many personal trips I made to New York because at the times I have gone they were not in any way connected with the chairman or the committee. I have gone rather frequently on my own. Mr. NEDZI. When you say rather frequently was this once a month, twice a month, once in 2 months? The WITNESS. In all truthfulness, I could not remember how often it was because this has been over a 3-year period of time. Mr. NEDZI. We are talking about a 2-year period of time; 1965 and 1966. The WITNESS. I am talking about the trips that have been over a 3-year period. Although you are discussing 2, it has been over a 3-year period. I do not remember when and how often it was at the time. Mr. NEDZI. Did you go more frequently on personal business than on committee business? The WITNESS. To my knowledge, no, sir. I did not. Mr. NEDZI. Can you compare the reasons for going whether you went approximately the same number of times on personal business or committee business? The WITNESS. No; I could not compare them because I have never given it any thought. Mr. NEDZI. Can you give it some thought now? The WITNESS. I still couldn't say. Mr. NEDZI. Did you go twice as many times on personal business than committee business or twice as many times on committee business as personal business, or the same number of times? The WITNESS. As I just said, if I cannot remember well enough to put the two together, then I could not say whether or not I went twice as many times on one than the other. Mr. NEDZI. When you went on a personal visit, did you go on a weekend or during the week? The WITNESS. I think I went on the weekend. Mr. NEDZI. How long would you stay if you went on personal business? The WITNESS. I stayed a few days. How many days I couldn't say exactly. For instance, I remember one occasion I went to New York with some' friends. We just went up there for a weekend. We all stayed downtown at one of the hotels on this particular occasion. Mr. NEDZI. Did you ever go for a day? The WITNESS. Go to New York just for a day? Mr. NEDZI. Yes. The WITNESS. Is this personal or business? Mr. NEDZI. At any time. The WITNESS. I might have. It is not clear to me right now. I might have gone for a day. Mr. NEDZI. I have no further questions. Mr. DICKINSON. No questions. Mr. HAYS. Thank you, Mr. Warren, you may be excused. You are excused from the subpena. (Witness excused.) Mr. HAYS.
