Did Oswald
Have LBJ
In Mind?
HOUSTON (UPI) - The War-
ren Commission is exploring the
possibiity that accused assassin
Lee Harvey Oswald intended to
kill then Vice-President Lyn-
don B. Johnson in April, 1963, the
Houston Post said Wednesday
night.
In a story by Washington Bu-
reau Chief Felton West, the Post
i said it learned from a reliable
source that Marina Oswald, the
accused assassin's widow, was
questioned about this possibility
during a recent interrogation.
Mrs. Oswald appeared before
the commission last Thursday.
The commission, headed by Chief
Justice Earl Warren, is investi-
gating the assassination of Presi-
dent Kennedy.
Mrs. Oswald told the commis-
sion, the Post said, that her hus-
band went to a closet and got a
pistol and said he was "going to
see a visitor" in Dallas that
weekend.
Mrs. Oswald said she talked
her husband out of leaving with
the pistol.
She said her husband had re-
marked earlier tfyat somebody was
coming to Dallas, or was in Dal-
las. She thought he said (former
Vice-President) "Richard Nixon
but he might have just said the
"vice-president," meaning Mr.
Johnson, and she was not sure
which.
Mrs. Oswald's reported lack of
certainty that it was Nixon her
husband was talking about, cou-
pled with other facts, has raised
the possibiity in the Warren Com-
mission's minds that Oswald was
planning to "go see" Mr. John-
son instead of Nixon, the Post
said.
Assistants "to President John-
son denied knowing anything
about the testimony of Mrs. Os-
wald. They also said that, as far
as they knew, the Warren Com-
mission had not made any in-
quiry about this possibility at the
White House.
