Mr. Liebeler. And will you tell us where you were born?
Mr. Gregory. I was born in Chita, Siberia.
Mr. Liebeler. Would you tell us briefly how you came to the United States?
Mr. Gregory. Yes, sir.
I came to the United States on or about August 1, 1923. I landed in San Francisco; came from Japan where I lived for 2 years prior to that. And my purpose was, of course, to come as an immigrant and to attend the University of California.
Mr. Liebeler. Did you attend the University of California?
Mr. Gregory. Yes, sir; I enrolled at the University in 1923 and I stayed out of the University for a couple of years but I graduated in 1929 as a petroleum engineer at Berkeley.
Mr. Liebeler. What educational background did you have in Russia or Japan before you came to the United States?
Mr. Gregory. I started my primary education in Russia, in 1912, and my education was interrupted by civil war in 1919. I finished high school or the equivalent of high school in Tokyo, Japan, where I attended the American school in Japan.
Mr. Liebeler. Where did you learn to speak English?
