Mr. Fain. Yes, sir; he described it as being—handling criminal matters among the population generally, is the way he described it.

Mr. Dulles. That might be. That is really the Ministry of the Interior, and the KGB is the secret security services, which has been sometimes controlling and sometimes has been under the Ministry of the Interior.

Mr. Fain. Yes, sir; he indicated to us just the ordinary way. In other words, I gathered from him that the police interviewed him when he came in, and also he said the police interviewed him when he left. But he said he made no deals with them or with any intelligence agents of the Soviet system.

Representative Ford. On page 2, Mr. Fain, are written two words. One is "Texas," is that, and another is "Noloc."'

Mr. Fain. I have no knowledge of who put that on or how that came there. I guess that looks like maybe "Texas" up there at the top.

Representative Ford. Would the second be "no location." Is that an abbreviation for that?

Mr. Fain. That probably has reference to somebody's notation. It may have been on the desk over there; no location for the uncle, no city stated for his location.

Representative Ford. Would that be something added by someone other than yourself?

Mr. Fain. Yes, sir; I did not make that notation. I have no knowledge as to who did. It was made in Dallas.

Mr. Stern. Mr. Fain, apart from the question of why he went to the Soviet Union in the first place, was he reluctant to answer any other questions that you put to him?
