Theory that he was a signal to start shooting, or had a gun
hidden in the umbrella.
Louie Steven Witt testified in 1978 at the HSCA explained that it was a symbol
of Neville Chamberlin, and protest of Joseph P. Kennedy's policy of appeasement
of Hitler. This is quite a far fetched explanation. He claimed to
have talked to no one. But here he is sitting next to the Dark-Complected Man.
Louie Steven Witt - the same man?
