EXHIBIT "Q"

FIELD EXAMINER'S MEMORANDUM

DATE: 17 MARCH 1954

CASE FILE:  	HOLLEN, WOODROW W, XC 16 586 695

SUBJECT:  INTERVIEW WITH CALVIN C. GRIMES, PAOLI, INDIANA

On March 17, 1954, the undersigned personally interviewed Mr. Calvin C. GRIMES, Trustee Greenfield Township, Orange County, Indiana, at his home south of Youngs Creek, Indiana, relative to the above case.  Mr. GRIMES stated that he had been trustee almost 16 years: 1930 to 1938 and from 1946 to 1954.  His present term expires in 1954.  Mr. GRIMES further stated that James DAVIS received some assistance from the township in supporting his family - not very much, but occasionally it was necessary that he receive aid, particularly during the depression years in the 1930s.  Mr. DAVIS also worked on WPA for a period.  He had no conflicts with the law within the knowledge of Mr. GRIMES.  He knew that DAVIS worked for various persons in an area where work was scarce and where wages were very low, but he thought that perhaps he was below average in his efforts to secure work.

Mr. GRIMES did not know of Mrs. DAVIS working away from home, but said that she was a very active woman in taking care of her children and did considerable canning from their garden.  He did not know of his own knowledge whether DAVIS supported Woodrow HOLLEN, but did state that he probably did early in his marriage to Mrs. DAVIS.  He doubted whether much support was rendered Woodrow after the first couple of years.

As trustee Mr. GRIMES had custody of the records of the Greenfield Grade School (Milton School NO. 8) for the years 1928 to 1932.  These were carefully examined by your examiner, but no record of attendance of Woodrow HOLLEN was found therein.

Mr. GRIMES stated that he had hired Woodrow to work for him for a short period on one or more occasions.  He was rather vague inasmuch as so much time had elapsed since the events concerning which questions were being propounded.  Mr. GRIMES was engaged in the business of his office and in constructing a lake near his home and it did not seem feasible to take his deposition, inasmuch as men were waiting on him for instructions and supervision.

It was later learned that Mr. GRIMES' brother, Luther GRIMES, married James DAVIS' first wife.
