Mr. BELIN - What is the address of that shop in Dallas?
Mr. BREWER - 213 West Jefferson.
Mr. BELIN - They made you the manager of that shop?
Mr. BREWER - Yes.
Mr. BELIN - How long have you been manager?
Mr. BREWER - Since August of 1962.
Mr. BELIN - From August 1962 on?
Mr. BREWER - Yes.
Mr. BELIN - Until the present time?
Mr. BREWER - Until the day I was made manager of the downtown store.
Mr. BELIN - Today is the 2d of April, or the 3d?
Mr. BREWER - Second.
Mr. BELIN - You were made manager of the Hardy's Downtown Shoe Store?
Mr. BREWER - Yes, sir.
It wasn't April Fool's. I thought they were firing me, but it turned out they weren't.
Mr. BELIN - Did he call you in yesterday to tell you?
Mr. BREWER - Day before yesterday and told me to get ready for an audit, that I would be going to town, if I wanted it, and I said yes.
Mr. BELIN - Would this be considered a promotion?
Mr. BREWER - A better store, more volume, and make more money. It would be considered a promotion.


The manager leaves his shop unattended and gets promoted?

Was it a reward for saying the correct (in the eyes of the WC) things? I wonder what he was doing that he was expecting to be fired?

If you both think it's a great idea today how do you explain it wasn't done in '64 when everyone was still alive?

So that's a "No" to doing some research?

He was a good citizen. He probably helped prevent more murders by Oswald's hands. I'd imagine Brewer was a local hero who improved sales in the shoe shop. Of course his employer looked after him. It would have been bad for business to not do so.

He received an award a few years back I believe. Probably an award for saying what the WC wanted him to say though ....

So now the owner of the chain of shoe stores is in on the conspiracy?
When the conspirators held their 10th year anniversary get together back in '73 they must have hired a venue like Shea Stadium so everyone in on the plot could attend.
