Mr. Rankin. Do you know what he paid for rent?
Mrs. Oswald. For two it was quite sufficient. Seven and a half rubles per month.
Mr. Rankin. Wasn't that pretty cheap for such a nice apartment?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes, it was cheap.
Mr. Rankin. Was this apartment nicer than most in this city?
Mrs. Oswald. No, in that city they have good apartments because the houses are new. That is, on a Russian scale, of course. You cannot compare it to private houses people live in here.
Mr. Rankin. Did he have an automobile?
Mrs. Oswald. Oh, no. In Russia this is a problem. In Russia it is difficult to have an automobile.
Mr. Rankin. Did he have a television set?
Mrs. Oswald. No. Only a radio receiver, a record player.
