197. GOLITSYN: Yes. Maybe four days. Then we knew that the Ameri-can Embassy took a ticket for him (the American tar-get) for the train... And KOSOLAPOV took a ticketin the same compartment. And before the departurewe knew exactly from the guide (conductor) of thattrain that it's the same person--[I'm not certainwhether he was a) code clerk or not a code clerk*--but his name, his real name. It was listed. And Iwas at the railroad station at that time. I wentto see off the delegation, the Soviet delegation.**Question: See them off?GOLITSYN: Yes, the delegation. And I asked him, KOSOLAPOV:"Who is this person? I suppose [he is an] American?"I suppose [believe] he said: "He's a fat man, ayoung fat man."Question: The American?GOLITSYN: Yes. And I suppose [believe KOSOLAPOV said] bespecta-cled.*** And KOSOLAPOV and these persons weresmiling and looked through the window before depart-ure.Question: In the compartment? The train compartment?GOLITSYN: Yes, and then this other person visited Helsinki fromKOSOLAPOV's division [the U.S. Embassy Section, Ameri-can Department, Second Chief Directorate].****Qestion: When was this?GOLITSYN: It was in summer or maybe September or so of 1961.And I asked him. I reminded him about his case...Question: Who was this? Do you remember?GOLITSYN: I don't remember because he changed his name. Iknow him but I... And I asked him how as that casethat I helped KOSOLAPOV with? And he did not wantto discuss it. That's why I came to the conclusionthat this case was a success. Otherwise he wouldhave told [me]. And I am not sure but I can try to rec-ognize this person in pictures.Question: You think that you could?* When he first gave this lead, GOLITSYN identified the  American as a code clerk.** GOLITSYN was not asked details of this delegation. Therewere eight Soviets, including KOSOLAPOV, on this train.*** KOSOLAPOV's description does not fit John GARLAND; it is,however, a fairly accurate characterization of Paul JENNER.**** NOSENKO has not mentioned this TDY, and the KGB officerremains unidentified..

# 190GOLITSYN: Yes, probably. He reminds me a little of one of my friends.Question: He looks a little like your friend?GOLITSYN: Yes.Question: Which one? KOSOLAPOV?GOLDTSYN: No, no. This AmericanThe Finnish railroad manifest lists the passengers travelling from Helsinki to Moscow on 16 November 1960. KOSOLAPOV was one of eight Soviets aboard the train, and John W. RIPLAND was the only American. GARLAND, by his own statement, arrived in Helsinki on 14 November 1960: he was travelling to Moscow to assume the duties of supervisor of the State Department code room in the U.S. Embassy.As he had with regard to SERGEYEV of the KGB Legal Residency in Helsinki asked the local police chief (and KGB agent, according to GOLITSYN) on 11 November 1960 for help in locating GARLAND, an American who would arrive there on 14 November.GARLAND was first interviewed by John ARIDIAN, the Embassy Security Officer in Moscow in connection with the GOLITSYN lead on 17 June 1962. In this interview GARLAND denied having met any Soviet of KOSOLAPOV's physical description during the Helsinki-to-Moscow train trip and also denied having ever been approached by Soviet Intelligence. On 30 July 1963 GARLAND was interviewed by the FBI.NOSENKO on 28 January 1964 identified 20 Americans employed by the U.S. Embassy in Moscow who were of interest to the KGB because they were suspect intelligence officers or agents, or because they fell into some other category of interest to the KGB. He gave a short statement concerning each of these 20 persons. One of them was GARLAND, about whom NOSENKO said: "code clerk, but nothing doing." NOSENKO was asked on 2 September 1964 to review this list for the purpose of supplying any additional information he might have concerning the individuals named. NOSENKO stated: As with all code clerks, they were studying him (GARLAND) in order to gather enough material to make a recruitment. The case officer was KOSOLAPOV. I don't remember the names or descriptions of any agents, and I didn't hear of any derogatory information. As far as I know, there was no operational approach and no recruitment." Although he could not recall whether he had read the KGB file on GARLAND or not, NOSENKO on 15 February 1965 said he thought that he must have read current materials concerning GARLAND as they came into the U.S. Embassy Section. NOSENKO also said that there was no operational plan drawn up for GARLAND because the KGB had no derogatory information whatsoever concerning him. NOSENKO has not provided additional information concerning GARLAND, whom he had presumably never seen, and was unableTOP SECRET

199. to recall any background information concerning GARLAND or anydetails on his travels and acquaintances while stationed in Mos-cow.In the context of discussion of KOLOSOV/KOSOLAPOV's travelsto Helsinki, NOSENKO's interrogator pointed out on 26 October1966 that CIA was aware of a second trip there which NOSENKO hadnot reported. The following is a transcript of this portion ofthe discussion on that date:Question: Well, we started to look for other trips by KOSO-LAPOV, or KOLOSOV, and we did run across anothertrip, again by KOLOSOV, using the same alias.NOSENKO: To Copenhagen?Question: No. This was a trip to Helsinki.NOSENKO: Oh. I don't know. Maybe after, after '61 maybe.I don't know--'62, '63, I don't know.Question: No, this was in 1960. When you say you were inthe First (U.S. Embassy) Section, First (American)Department, Second Chief Directorate. He was onthe train, according to official records, on 16 Novem-ber 1960, going from Helsinki to Moscow.NOSENKO: I know about one, he has took trip, when he was re-turning from Helsinki with Paul JENNER.Question: We looked at everybody else, all the other recordsconcerning this train trip to see who was on thetrain with KOSOLAPOV or KOLOSOV. KOLOSOV was thename he used.NOSENKO: Yes?Question: We found there was one American on that train withKOLOSOV going from Helsinki to Moscow.NOSENKO: Yes? And his name? If it is not secret, if you cansay, of course?Question: One of your targets, an American code clerk.NOSENKO: He was, I know, going from Helsinki, only with PaulJENNER.Question: You don't know this man's name?NOSENKO: (silence)Question: Well, we checked further and we found out thatGOLITSYN had told us about a trip.NOSENKO: When he was returning from Helsinki with Paul JENNER?GOLITSYN was then out, yes?*GOLITSYN arrived in Helsinki in July 1960, over four monthsafter JENNER passed through Finland en route to Moscow.

Question: GOLITSYN told us that KOSOLAPOV was travelling to Helsinki to meet a code clerk in November 1960. You understand what I'm telling you?NOSENKO: Yes, I understand. And KOSOLAFOV must tell him about the code clerk, but we found out that Paul JENNER is not a code clerk when he began to work at the Embassy.Question: This is not Paul JENNER. This is a different time of year--NOSENKO: (interrupts) When he began to work in Embassy.Question: This is not March 1960. This is November 1960. A different time. It's the same year, but a different time.NOSENKO: I know only about his trip when he was returning with Paul JENNER.Question: Well, how do you explain that this man, who's supposed to be under your supervision in the Embassy Section, is aboard this train with this American code clerk, one of your targets, in November 1960?NOSENKO: I know only about one trip [by] KOSOLAPOV to Helsinki, when he was returning with Paul JENNER, about whom he was thinking also that he was a code clerk. Yes.Question: KOSOLAPOV or KOLOSOV was not on the same train with JENNER. We have the names; we have the facts; we have the official records. We also have GOLITSYN's information about November 1960. GOLITSYN went with KOSOLAPOV to the train station to see him off.NOSENKO: He must. He was working as a case officer of counterintelligence, of the Fourteenth Department. Of course he must, of course he must. And KOSOLAPOV must speak with him.Question: KOSOLAPOV spoke with GOLITSYN, and KOSOLAPOV rode with this American code clerk from Helsinki on the train back to Moscow. But GOLITSYN was not in Helsinki when JENNER was there. It wasn't JENNER.NOSENKO: With Paul JENNER I know, but I don't know of anybody else... You are giving me such a big bluff. I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.Question: It's no bluff. Do you have any idea who this other code clerk was?NOSENKO: No. There wasn't such a one....Question: Well, I'll tell you who it was... Did you ever hear the name GARLAND?NOSENKO: Yes, I heard GARLAND. And there wasn't any approach made to GARLAND. There wasn't any attempt to recruit him. There was a study of him, yes, but there wasn't recruitment or something else.....

GOLITSIN told CIA of such a prohibition placed on the use of homosexual compromise material, against a U.S. Embassy employee in 1960 because of the impending visit of President EISENHOWER to the Soviet Union. As a result of the U-2 incident on 1 May 1960, this visit never took place, and U.S.-Soviet relations deteriorated. Throughout the rest of 1960 and most of 1961 they remained very strained, and Soviet pressures and hard lines culminated in the Berlin crisis and wall-building in Berlin in August of 1961.TOP SECRET

# TOP SECRETNOSENKO further reported to CIA that the KGB case officer working against MORONE was NOSENKO's subordinate and specialist in code clerk operations. KOSOLAPOV:: NOSENKO read the file on MORONE and saw his visa photograph, but he never saw him in person and so could not provide a physical description. NOSENKO had discussed the MORONE case with KOSOLAPOV and GRYAZNOV on a number of occasions.KOSENKO said that the KGB agents working on MORONE were:*   Svetlana IVANOVA, a maid or waitress at America House who reported to DEMKIN, the case officer responsible for Americans living there, on everything she saw or heard concerning MORONE. KOSOLAPOV visited her several times with DEMKIN to discuss MORONE, and NOSENKO himself met her once or twice in one of the two safe apartments that DEMKIN had at his disposal. NOSENKO did not recall any specific information on MORONE which was interesting or useful from this source.*   ![redacted] an Egyptian employed at the Egyptian Embassy who was an agent of the Sixth (Under-developed Countries) Department of the KGB Second Chief Directorate. visited America House and met MORONE, but he did not report anything of value that NOSENKO remembered.*   One of two East German females imported for use against the inhabitants of America House. In early 1960 GRYAZNOV went to East Berlin to obtain two German women who could be used for this purpose. The first of these was Hanna, blonde, documented as a West German traveling to Moscow. NOSENKO never met her but instructed PREIS-FREUND (see the STORSBERG case) to take her to America House and leave her on her own. Hanna went several times to America House in 1961, but NOSENKO can recall nothing that she may have reported on MORONE. The other East German girl was documented as an Austrian. NOSENKO never met her but recalled that she was asked for her documents at America House on her first or second visit there. She replied that she had left them at her hotel, left America House, and never returned. NOSENKO did not remember the time when this incident occurred, beyond the fact that he was still in the U.S. Embassy Section and that ABIDIAN was the Embassy security officer at the time.**   ![redacted] an Italian at the American Embassy and KOSOLAPOV's agent, reported everything he heard or saw about Americans to KOSOLAFOV. NOSENKO recalled nothing specific that had said about MORONE.CIA has no information concerning such an incident in 1960-1961, but the circumstances described by NOSENKO seem to apply to those surrounding a relationship between a woman named Lillian (last name not known) and the military code clerk ZUJUS. These details are given in Part V.E.3.c.(v). In any event, the incident involving Lillian occurred after the date when NOSENKO says he was transferred from the U.S. Embassy Section. At the time, Hugh MONTGOMERY rather than ABIDIAN was the Embassy Security Officer.

205. From one of these agents, or possibly in some other man-ner, the KGB learned that MORONE was planning to go on leaveto Warsaw. NOSEIKO, KOSOLAPOV, and GRYAZIOV thereupon decidedto employ a Polish female agent in an attempt to compromise him.KOSOLAPCV wrote the draft of the operational plan for the attempt,which was approved by GRIBANOV after some editing by NOSENKOand KOVSHUK, chief of the section. KOSOLAPOV next met with aPolish UB counterintelligence officer in KGB Headquarters todiscuss the pian. The Fole was told that the target was a U.S.Embassy employee, but not that he was a code clerk; this factwas deliberately kept from the Poles.As a result of this meeting, a Polish girl was obtainedby the Polish UB and sent to Moscow by train. Upon her arrivalshe was met by KOSOLAPOV, who took her to a Moscow hotel, wherehe gave her instructions concerning her role in the operation.The girl was told to meet MORONE on the train, flirt with him,have him fall in love with her, continue the association, andstudy him. She was to tell him that she had been in Moscow asa guest of her uncle, a member of the Polish Trade Representa-tion in Moscow, and that she could meet him again on her nextvisit.Arrangements were made with the YOB Operational TechnicalDirectorate for a technician to be placed on the train in thecompartment next to that of MORONE and BEGGS and for audio andvisual (but not photographic) coverage.NOSENKO did not recall when MORONE and BEGGS left Moscow.The Polish agent did, however, succeed in making HORONE'Sacquaintance, and the technician from the Operational TechnicalDirectorate reported back to NOSENKO the day after the trainreached Warsaw.* The technician told NOSENKO the girl had en-gaged in sexual intercourse during the trip. The technicianalso reported that the tape recordings obtained were of poorquality..Because the KGB still lacked compromising materials, KCSO-LAPOV prepared a paper requesting that the girl again be broughtto Moscow and permission to acquire compromising photographyduring her visit. The requests were approved by higher KGBauthority. When the girl arrived, KOSOLAPOV met her alone andtook her to the Hotel Peking, to a specially equipped room.The girl called MORONE at America ilquse, and MORONE subsequentlyvisited her in the hotel room two or three times, during whichphotographs were taken. These were placed in the KGB's file onMCRONE. He did not fall in love with the girl, as the KGB hadhoped, and she had no further contacts with him.*CIA travel records show that NOSENKO transitted Amsterdam on15 November 1960 on a through flicht from Moscow to CubeNOSENKOreturned from Cuba approximately 4 December 1960. When toldthis, NOSENKO stated that instead of talking to the tech:nician himself, he may have read the report and seen the filnstrips after his return.TOP SECRET

Although the KGB had the compromising photography, it was felt that there were insufficient materials for a recruitment approach to MOPONE. The KGB wanted to trap him in the apartment of a Soviet woman, to catch him in something that is definitely prohibited. For this purpose, Svetlana IVANOVA (see above) was supposed to lure MORCNE into the city, but before anything further could be done, the Americans ordered MORONE out of Moscow before the end of his tour, possibly because they were concerned about his association with IVANOVA. Therefore, NOSENKO said, the KGB made no operational approach to MORONE and no recruitment of him.(c) Information from Other SourcesA sensitive Polish source reported in 1961 that on 8 November 1960 a Polish female, an experienced English-speaking agent of the Polish UB, arrived in Moscow where she was met by a KGB case officer named "VOLODYA." She stayed at the Hotel Warsaw in Moscow. The KGB case officer, apparently from the American Department of the KGB Second Chief Directorate, on 10 November 1960 pointed MORONE out to this agent at a railroad station in Moscow. Under KGB instructions, the Folish female met MORONE on the train to Warsaw, where intimacies began. In Warsaw on 12 November 1960 she was quite friendly with MORONEZ, but pursuant to instructions, she refused all overtures to engage in intimacies. The next day she took MORONE to a Polish UB safe-house suitably prepared for clandestine photography, and revealing photographs of an intimate nature were taken of MORONE and herself. The female agent again travelled to Moscow on 5 February 1961 and stayed at the Peking Hotel. Further compromising photographs were taken of her and MOPONE on this trip. The female agent travelled to Moscow a third time and on 12 and 13 February 1961 more photographs were taken of her and MORONE.GOLITSYN was questioned on the basis of this lead on 16 February 1962:Question: Do you know anyone in the American Department of the Second Chief Directorate who worked against the American Embassy and used the name "VOLODYA?"GOLITSYN: Yes, I know CHURANOV. He worked at one time against the U.S. Embassy. Later he worked against the British Embassy and later he was sent to Denmark..Question: When was he sent? Do you know?GOLITSYN: It was in '57 until probably '60... I suppose that he will continue to work now in the First Chief Directorate. He transferred there from the Second...Question: Do you know anyone who used the name "VOLODYA" in the Second Chief Directorate in Moscow in the fall of 19607GOLITSYN: There is another person. It is [Vladimir Ivanovich] PETROV. He is the employee of the American Department, Second Chief Directorate who works against the American Embassy. He evidently knows English. ...and he worked in the American Department. I know him and I met him in 1960. He was Chief of the American Section, the Embassy Section...

Question: Well, in VOLODYA, I'r. interested in a KGB case officer who would be working against American code clerks in the fall of 1960.GOLITSYN: Yes he (PETROV) is the Chief of this section. That is why. He is the Chief o. this section where GRYAZNOV works. (GOLITGYN had earlier identified GRYAZNOV as a code clerk specialist in the U.S. Embassy Section.lQuestion: And GRYAZNOV is under him?GOLITSYN: Yes, he was an assistant at one time, but is not (now), and then there was the reorganization and he became a little "liquidated" (downgraded in position).In an October 1962 interview, following his withdrawal from Moscow, MORONE stated that he had travelled with Frank BEGGS to Warsaw on 12 November 1960. On the train he saw a Polish girl outside their compartment and asked her what languages she spoke. Later she entered his compartrent, and when he tried to engage in sexual relations with her, she slapped his face. A day or two after they arrived in Warsaw, the girl contacted him at his hotel, and he went to her room where they had sexual relations. According to MORONE, he had sexual relations with at least two other women while in Warsaw. He and BEGGS returned to Moscow without incident. On 6 February 1961 the Folish giri from the train called him at America House, and the following day he visited her in her room at the Peking Hotel, where they had several drinks and sexual relations. On this occasion or earlier the girl told him that she had an uncle in Moscow. MORONE lad dented being approached or recruited by Soviet Intelligence, a statement which was supported by a polygraph examination administered in 1961. (Further details on this interview of MORONE are inserted in a later paragraph containing information from MORONE's associates in Moscow.)The Marine guard BEGGS has confirmed MORONE's account in general, with the exception that he has stated that the two travelled to Warsaw on 13 November 1960 and that, after meeting the Polish girl on the train, MORONE and she got into the lower bunk in their train compartment. They arrived in Warsaw on 14 November and returned the 20th. BEGGS had heard from MORONE that the latter had been recontacted by the Polish girl in Moscow in February 1961.The U.S. military code clerk STORSBERG has reported that MORONE was acquainted with "Michel MICHAUD" (SKVORTSOV), who laid some groundwork for the KGB approach to STOPSPERG in the fall of 1961. When interviewed by the FBIIn February 1965 NOSENKO said that SKVORTSOV undoubtedly met other Americans on his visits to America House, but he did. not remember who they were. He added that the KGB would not be interested in SKVORTSOV's contacts with other code clerks because "we told him not to squander his forces, to concentrate on Jim (STORSBERG). Jim was his target."

MOROKE'S Fellow code clerks and residents of America House have described him as a heavy drinker, a heavy gambler, and a ladies' ran. Various reports indicate that HOPONE was involved in a currency-speculation ring operated by the KGB agent rentioned by JOSE, and MOPONE has confirmed that, on at least one occasion, arranged the introduction of MORONE and other code clerks to Soviet females. MORONE had relations with one of them in's apartment in the spring of 1961. NΟFONE was also said to be a close friend of the Embassy identified by ICSENKO as an agent of KOSO-LAFOV, but not mentioned by him in connection with the MOPONE operation. (MORONE admitted that along with other Americans, he made it a common practice to purchase rubles illegally fromOne report states that asked a Marine guard to deliver blackmarket rubles to MOROSE in the State Department code room, a restricted area to which had no access. A number of reports indicate that MORONE was sexually intimate with Svetlana IVANOVA, DEAKIN's agent, and with Ella UMANETS, another KCB agent at America House identified by NOSENKO Dut not renticned by him in connection with MORONE. (MORONE denies having had relations with IVANOVA but said that he told his friends that he had been intimate with her. He said, however, that he knew both IVANOVA and UMANETS well and that he had once asked IVANOVA to arrange dates for him and another code cierk with two Russian females. IVANOVA did, and sexual relations ensued. MORONE has also admitted sexual relations with a number of weren from varicus Kestern embassies in Moscow.)
