Catlett explained that many people had access to his house and could have taken the typewriter.
Were there any boarders or visitors in your house?
A. We always had boarders. In 1938 we had three. And they had lots of visitors. On weekends we had dances and parties for kids our age. Sometimes it was so crowded you couldn't move. Q. Why did you go looking for the typewriter? A* I told Mr. Hiss's brother, Donald, that the FBI had come about the typewriter. I thought I knew where it was. He offered to pay me $40 for the time it took me to find it.
Q. Tell us about your interview with the FBI. A* They asked me if I knew the Hisses. They showed me some photographs of a man and lady with a baby. I said Fd never seen them. They came back to see me about ten or twelve times. Once they picked me up and took me riding in a car. They gave me beer.
