Mr. Oswald. No, sir; I did not. I had more or less forgotten it myself.
Mr. Jenner. There is a reference in your brother's letter of November 8 to his reluctance to engage in a telephone conversation. Had you attempted to reach him by telephone?
Mr. Oswald. I had decided to try to reach him by telephone on Sunday, November 1, 1959. I did not.
Mr. Jenner. You were unable to, you mean?
Mr. Oswald. No, sir; I did not. I placed the call and I received the New York operator, overseas operator, and there was some discussion as to what time it was in Moscow, and so forth, and I changed my mind and did not. However, I am aware that my mother tried and did for a moment have Lee on the telephone in Moscow.
Mr. Jenner. At that time?
Mr. Oswald. At approximately that same date.
Mr. Jenner. Did you ever make any effort to reach him by telephone thereafter?
Mr. Oswald. No, sir; I did not.
Mr. Jenner. Did he reach you by telephone or attempt to do so as far as you know?
