Mrs. Paine. They had been twice.
Mr. Jenner. November 1 and——
Mrs. Paine. November 1, and they told me the 5. I made no record of it whatever.
Mr. Jenner. But it was a few days later?
Mrs. Paine. Yes; a few days later. And the first visit I understood to be a visit to convey to Marina that if any blackmail pressure was being put upon her, because of relatives back home, that she was invited, if she wished, to talk about this to the FBI. This is a far cry from being told she could defect from the Soviet Union, very strong words, and false both.
Mr. Jenner. Did you ever hear anything at all insofar as the FBI is concerned reported to you by Marina or Lee Harvey Oswald during all of your acquaintance with either of them of any suggestion by the FBI or anybody else that Marina defect in that context to the United States?
Mrs. Paine. No, absolutely not.
Mr. Jenner. Or anything of similar import?
Mrs. Paine. Nothing of similar import.
Mr. Jenner. I limited it to the FBI. Any agency of the Government of the United States?
