Dyifgs, “gpparently- 1 pro- voked by vress accusations that the Warren Comission has . been dilatory, asked_CIA for su gestions of Guestions or yequests to be included tter to SOUS t—Governnent. This <or, irom the. Warren Comnission andV throngh the Department of State, would seek additional evi- cence which is presumably available in Soviet.files which could assist the Commission's deliberations. Wr. Dulles did rot have a detailed idea of what he wanted to ask the Soviets | for but did say that the questions should be “not too tech- nical." Although Mr. Angleton thousht that the letter should be written only after the CIA report and comments have been comploted, in order to make the letter as effective as possi- ble, Mr. Dulles feit it should go now, be phrased in gonerali- ties and allow the Soviets more flexibility in their handling of the natter than would.:a’more pointed letter based on our concrete findings. Mr. Dulles asked CIA only for the qvestions and not for a draft letter. Mr. Murphy suggested that we ask re only for certain records rather than put specific questions to the Soviets. Ur. Murphy suggested that these might include — . Soviet bospital records connected with Lee Oswald’s attempted suicide, © catty. visa and. registration records for Moscow. and -Minsk, factory personnel records from Oswald's place of enploy~ ment, etc. Also: ‘Oswald's diary noted that bis case had passed ‘through two commtssions in the USSR; we might ask for the ‘'vecords of these commissions as “well.

Rankin: stated that the Commission wants to account in detail, minute: by minute and hour by hour, for Oswald's tine outside the United States. Mr. Bagley suggested that. tHe narrative. chronology of Oswald's stay in the Soviet Union ‘bey ‘converted: to-a chronology tabulation which would permit us more sin “to insert added detalis and dates as we learned of then\i®’ other documentation which we can expect to receive shortly. This was agreed. . ¢ (ote: I instructed Mr. Wigren to begin re f ‘easting the narfative immediately into« this form. ) 4. Mr. Rankin said that the Commission has a waist-high stack of documents and reports received from the FAI. and Secret Service which CIA has not yet received. These include Secret Service interviews with Marina Oswald, letters from-Lee Oswald in the USSR and other material. He promised to send this material to Mr. Helms shortly. . (Note: We will ‘pass appropriate parts of this material to DERYABIN for further analy- sis along the lines of his earlier work on cocuments already in our possession.) Bef ‘Yessrs, A 2 hy and Rocca considered DERYA— BIN's. Anat pak analysis. of Marina Oswald's documents, and the eri— ous anal \er even hypothesis until some of DERYABIN’ questions been answered. Mr. Recca suggested that DSR¥A- . BIN's paper be recast. into nore. of a questionnaire form. and: ix. Bagley agreed, pointing out that DERYABIN’s comment and ~ speculation could be put off to the side as explanatory com _ ment on each question, as. appropriate. Mr. Angleton and Ur. Murphy thought. that it would be desirable to send this paper ‘to the Warren Commission in advance of other CIA reports with a memorandum informing the Commission that we would need OF - ‘answers to this interim questionnaire in order" ‘to reconstruct. a detatled chronology of Oswald's time in the.
