On September 17, he obtained from the Mexican consulate general in New Orleans a "Tourist Card," FM-8 No. 24085, good for one journey into Mexico for no longer than 15 days. Typed in the blank, "Appelidos y nombre" was "Lee, Harvey Oswald," "Fotogrofo"; the intended destination was shown as Mexico City. (The comma between "Lee" and "Harvey" seems to have been an error.) On the application Oswald stated that he was employed at "640 Rampart"; he was in fact unemployed. (See Commission Exhibits Nos. 2478, 2481, p. 300.)
Of course they "explained". They had to come up with some bullshit story.

Oswald's last name appears as "Lee" in three places in connection with his trip to Mexico City, discussed above. His tourist card was typed by the Mexican consulate in New Orleans, "Lee, Harvey Oswald." 618 However, the comma seems to have been a clerical error, since Oswald signed both the application and the card itself, "Lee H. Oswald." Moreover, Oswald seems originally to have also printed his name, evenly spaced, as "Lee H Oswald," but, noting that the form instructed him to "Print full name. No initials," printed the remainder of his middle name after the "H." The clerk who typed the card thus saw a space after "Lee," followed by "Harvey Oswald" crowded together, and probably assumed that "Lee" was the applicant's last name. (See Commission Exhibit 2481, p. 800.) The clerk who prepared Oswald's bus reservation for his return trip wrote "H. O. Lee." He stated that he did not remember the occasion, although he was sure from the handwriting and from other facts that he had dealt with Oswald. He surmised that he probably made out the reservation directly from the tourist card, since Oswald spoke no Spanish, and, seeing the comma, wrote the name "H. O. Lee." 619 Oswald himself signed the register at the hotel in Mexico City as "Lee, Harvey Oswald," 620 but since the error is identical to that on the tourist card and since he revealed the remainder of his name, "Harvey Oswald," it is possible that Oswald inserted the comma to conform to the tourist card, or that the earlier mistake suggested a new pseudonym to Oswald which he decided to continue.

> In any event, Oswald used his correct name in making reservations for the trip to Mexico City, in introducing himself to passengers on the bus, and in his dealings with the Cuban and Soviet Embassies.621 When registering at the Beckley Avenue house in mid-October, Oswald perpetuated the pseudonym by giving his name as "0. H. Lee," 622 though he had given his correct name to the owner of the previous roominghouse where he had rented a room after his return from Mexico City.623 Investigations of the Commission have been conducted with regard to persons using the name "Lee," and no evidence has been found that Oswald used this alias for the purpose of making any type of secret contacts."
See? Total bullshit.

Yes, it does. But that is when Herbert arrived from Shreveport according the FBI.

None of these questions ever got asked for the very good reason that there was NO OH LEE living there at any time.
> Alternately, there was an O.H.Lee living there, and the H.Lee living in room Zero (0) is the figment of your imagination.
Sure. The FBI inyterviewed a figment of my imagination. That's a new low in brain power even for you.
> It appears you have not considered that possibility. Especially since Oswald admitted going back to the rooming house to get his revolver ("you know how boys are, when they have a gun, they just carry it.") And since he was recognized on television by Gladys Johnson when they showed Oswald under arrest, as mentioned above by another poster.
Alternatively, you have not considered the reality that cops are alowed to lie with impunity to suspects and the media and that many of them carry this freedom to lie over into reports and testimony. This practice is the very reason that no cops of that era recorded interrogations.

So I came from the restaurant, I guess 1 or 1:30, and these officers were there 1:30 or 2, something like that, anyway, it was after this assassination, and as I drove in, well, the officers were there and they told me that they was looking for this character and I told them I didn't think I had anyone by that name there but we went through the register carefully two or three times and there was no Oswald there and I had two new tenants, rather new tenants, so we had carried them around the house to show them and we was going to start in the new tenants' rooms and my husband was sitting in the living room and seen this picture flash on the television and he said, "Please go around that house and tell him it was this guy that lived in this room here"; and it was O. H. Lee.

Mr. BALL. When is the first time you ever saw Lee Oswald?
Mrs. ROBERTS. The day he came in and rented the room--the 14th of October.
Mr. BALL. Had you ever heard of the man before?
Mrs. ROBERTS. No, and he didn't register as Oswald---he registered as O. H. Lee.
Mr. BALL. Did he sign his name?
Mrs. ROBERTS. O. H. Lee.
Mr. BALL. Did he sign his own name that way ?
Mrs. ROBERTS. O. H. Lee---that's what he was registered as.
Mr. BALL. Did you rent it to him, or did Mrs. Johnson?
Mrs. ROBERTS. I rented the room to him.
Mr. BALL. You did?
Mrs. ROBERTS. She talked to him, and she had to go back to the work and that was what I was supposed to do---I rented the rooms---she didn't know what vacancies she had.
It was Roberts who rented the room to Herbert, not Gladys. Neither rented a room to anyone named OH LEE.
Here is the FBI report on Herbert Lee.
www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=96522#relPageId=113
The issues with this are:. They never asked him which room he stayed in. Why is that do you suppose? They did not check the Beckley ledges to confirm any thing he said.
He claims he lived there for 4 or 5 weeks in Octiber and moved out Nov 1. Utter bullshit., He moved in on Oct 15 after renting the room on Oct 14. If you move forward 4 weeks (he said he was there 4 or 5 weeks), it brings you up to Nov 11.... so it was actually 4 and a bit weeks he was there because we know from Johnson Exhibit A and Gladys's testimony that he moved out on Nov 13.
As I said, the Johnsons got on board because they were told they could make money out of it. Starting with selling that scrap of paper - which the WC allowed her to do - even knowing they need ariginal documents for forensic examination. There is no forensic evidence Oswald ever touched that piece of paper - let alone signed it. All you have is the say-so of someone who had a vested interest in saying it was Oswald.
> > Ms Hall, who inherited the dump, claimed during the 2013 50th anniversary that her grandmother Gladys had destroyed the books.
> Hall had nothing to do with the assassination. Nobody with half a brain or more should care what she said. Everything from her is second-hand. Was she even born in 1963?
Yes. She was 11 opr 12 at the time and would stay there weekends in room 0 when it wab't occupied. Around the 50th annivery she tried tro sell the dump for over half a mil. It's true valuation was a fraction of that. Money. It speaks to everyone.
> > Of course, the books should have been considered evidence and at very least copied. But no. She gets to keep and destroy them and instead proffers up a scrap of paper which shows Room 0 H LEE and the dates of rent payments.
> How did you determine it was the number 0 as opposer to the letter O? This was handwriting, not typewritten. Gladys said Oswald signed it in her presence.
How did you determine that it was O in the first place? In fact, how did you determine the O was not added after the assassination? You couldn't determine any of that because she was allowed to keep and sell the original And once again, all you have is the word of someone with a vested interest in having it accepted that Oswald lived there.

> Where does Gladys say that?
> > All we see there now is the word "out" She claimed that the erasure was the date Nov 13.
> You sure it even existed? You sure it wasn't November 23?
I don't know. She is your witness. It is what she said.
Mrs. JOHNSON. May I have something to erase this November 13, 15--I got that wrong, anyway. I was looking at the calendar and this, I was thinking it was November 13 that he left he left my place on a Wednesday before this assassination on Friday.
Mr. BALL. That was the last time you saw him?
Mrs. JOHNSON. Yeah; the last time I saw him was on a Wednesday but my housekeeper seen him on a Friday morning right after this assassination, he came by the house hurriedly.
Funny how both she and Ruth Paine got dates confused whenit mattered. She apparently thought the 22nd was actually the 15th. Imagine that. And apparently they were in the habit of keeping track of when people not only moved out, but just simply went out.
https://www.maryferrell.org/showDoc.html?docId=1137#relPageId=296
How else do you explain the only word not erased being "OUT". You seriously believe they wrote on a scrap of paper that Oswald went OUT on the 13th (or 15th?
Logic dictates that the word OUT pertained to someone moving out. That is the only record they needed. They did not need a record of anyone;s comings and goings. Since Oswald did not move out on the 13th, the 15th or the 22nd, it has to be in refard to Herbert.

> Sure. They all got together over beers and decided framing an innocent guy on the weekend of the assassination and letting the real Tippit killer (and Presidential assassin?) go free was just the right thing to do.
That is the logic fallacy of Ignoratio elenchi. as well as an appeal to ridicule. Pretty fucked coming from someone who doesn't even know the difference brtween framing the question and begging the questionb. But comes with being a McAdams acolyte, I suppose. Because he sure as hell didn't know the difference either.
> > The note had indicated that H (Herbert) LEE had moved out on Nov 13.
> The note we conveniently can't see? Where did Lee Harvey Oswald live, if not the rooming house?
Um. Somewhere else. Proving he does not live in place A does not require proof he lived in Place B. That's another logical fallacy - a slight variation on the argument from adverse consequences.
