Mrs. Oswald. Why hadn't he planned that?
Mr. Rankin. That is what I am trying to find out from you.
Did he ever tell you that he didn't plan to visit the Soviet Embassy?
Mrs. Oswald. This is not the truth. He did want to contact the embassy.
Mr. Rankin. And he told you before he went to Mexico that he planned to visit the Soviet Embassy, did he?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes.
Mr. Rankin. Did he ever say to you before he went to Mexico that he planned to communicate with the Soviet Embassy in Havana?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes, he said that if he would be able to get to Cuba, with the intention of living there, he would get in touch with the Soviet Embassy for the purpose of bringing me there. Or for him to go to Russia. Because sometimes he really sincerely wanted to go to Russia and live and sometimes not. He did not know, himself. He was very changeable.
Mr. Rankin. But in Exhibit 15, Mrs. Oswald, he refers to the fact that he hadn't been able to reach the Soviet Embassy in Havana as planned, and then he says, "The Embassy there would have had time to complete our business."
Now, did he discuss that at all with you before he went to Mexico?
