At the time, Sylvia was supposedly working as a personnel research technician for the Air Force: Report of SA Paul W. Nolan, 9/18/56, Commission Document 501 - FBI Nolan Report of 18 Sep 1956 re: Hoke
A February 1957 memo revealed that Sylvia had been working in a semi-secret position for Naval Intelligence, and had lost her shot at a top secret position because of the Dorothy Wilson-Helen Hoke Watts relationship: Commission Document 508 - FBI Mansfield Report of 06 Feb 1957 re: Hoke, p. 1. For an unredacted version of this document, see http://media.nara.gov/dc-metro/rg-272/605417-key-persons/paines_the_feb_64-1-1-1-associates_and_relatives/paines_the_feb_64-1-1-1-associates_and_relatives.pdf (page 98 of 98). The redaction refers to Isadore Gibby Needleman, an attorney and self-described Marxist-Leninist who worked in Soviet trade for the Amtorg Corporation in New York City. Needleman was alleged to be involved in Soviet espionage in March 1958 by NY T-3.
Bill Harvey's agent Elizabeth Bentley reported that Needleman's colleague Frank Coe was a member of the "Communist Espionage group in the United States Government, and which was headed by Nathan Gregory Silvermaster." Coe, whose positions included secretary of the IMF as well as the monetary research director of the US Treasury Department, was also active in the Perlo Group involved in Soviet espionage during the 30s-40s which included John Abt and Alger Hiss. (See Part 11).
When Lee needed a job in October, 1963, even the Warren Commission admits that it was Ruth who set him up working the boxes on the sixth floor of the Texas Book Depository, thanks to a tip from neighbor Buell Wesley Frazier's sister Linnie Mae Randle: Testimony of Ruth Hyde Paine, Vol. 3, p. 34.
The Book Depository was an ideal spot along the motorcade route for a sniper to take a shot at the President. Ruth bitterly regretted her role in finding Oswald the Book Depository job: Warren Commission Hearings, Volume 17, p. 179, Exhibit 460, article by Ruth Paine on Lee Harvey Oswald, received by George Harris of Look Magazine.
Furthermore, the Warren Commission suppressed the information that Paine hid from Oswald that Robert Adams from the Texas Employment Commission had left a message at her home in an effort to tell Oswald that a job was available with Trans Texas Airways which would have paid much more money than the Depository job: Warren Commission Hearings, Volume 11, Affidavit of Robert Adams, pp. 480-481. click here
Ruth would not admit getting the message: James Douglass, JFK and the Unspeakable, (Orbis Books, 2008), pp. 171-173, quoting Affidavit of Robert L,. Adams, 8/4/63, Warren Commission Hearings, Volume 11, p. 481; http://www.maryferrell.org/mffweb/archive/viewer/showDoc.do?docId=45&relPageId=491

Adams remembered the details of this story in August 1964, after he had for some strange reasons denied ever telephoning for Oswald when originally quizzed by the Warren Commission in April: Warren Commission Hearings, Volume 10, p. 139 (April)
