John Connally emotionally asking why he was spared and the President slain, said from his hospital bed Dial .John Kennedy might do in death what he could not do in life: "That is to so shock and stun the nation, the people and the world of what is happening to us, of the cancerous growth that is being permitted to ex pand and enlarge itself upon the community and the society in which we live, that breeds hatred, bigotry and intoler ance . . ." The wounded Texas chief ex ecutive reflected upon the "whys" of last Friday's assas sination of President Kennedy in a closed circuit television press conference Wednesday that was his first public utter ances since being shot by the President's assassin. Connally also gave a vivid account of those fateful sec onds w hen, as he tersely put it, "we went from great joy, great anticipation, to great tragedy." Speaking of the "magnifi cent" motorcade tour through Dallas, the governor said: President Slumped "We had just turned the cor ner i into Elm Street) ...we heard a shot ... I turned to my left, and tlie President had slumped. "He said nothing. "As I turned I was hit and I knew I was hit badly. I knew the President had been hit and I said, 'My God, they are going lo kill us all.' "Then there was a third shot and the President was h i t again. "When he was hit, she 'Mrs. Kennedy i aid, 'Oh, my God, they have killed my husband Jack. Jack.' "After tlie third shot the Se cret Service said. 'Get out of here and get us to a hospital'." Connally said they didn't tell him the President w as dead un til the next day, Saturday, "af ter 1 was conscious enough to really understand. It was no news to me because I was al most sure he would be after the two shots I felt he had taken . . . because 1 personally felt that I had been killed, too, when I received my shot." Connally was shot through tlie back by tlie sniper from a window of a building 100 yards away. The bullet fragmented. It broke three ribs, cut a lung, shattered his rigiit wrist and made a slight wound above the left knee. Four liours of surg ery saved him. Some Speculation Tlie governor said he knew that there was some specula tion that lie, and not the Presi dent, was the real target of the gunman. "Of course, I had been cam paigning all over Texas all last year on horseback, in cars, on street corners, where I could have been easy prey for anyone with no security whatsoever, so I don't put any stead (sic in this. "I think the man did what he intended to do shoot both of us." Connally said that the assas sination, which, he said, "could have occurred in any otlier city in America," was "an open manifestation of extremism on both sides that is the genesis of our own self-destruction if we are ever going to be de stroyed." "I am not the least fearful," the governor continued, "of any foreign enemy as long as we have w ithin ourselves not hate but human understanding, not passion and prejudice but rea son and tolerance, and not ig norance but knowledge and tlie willingness to use that knowl edge . "That is the only answer I can give as to why lie is gone and I am not." Red Cross Stamp Issued The government of the Uni ted States honored the lonth an niversary of the world-wide Red Cross movement with the issu ance of a special commemora tive postage stamp marking the International Red Cross Cen tenary and the American lied Cross contribution of th histor ic Cuban prisoner exchange pro gram.
