Mr. Dulles. Did Special Agent Arnold J. Brown concur in your decision with regard to marking the case "C," closed?
Mr. Fain. Yes, sir; I remarked to him we were just going to close it, and he saw the finished report and initialed the report.
Mr. Dulles. He saw that conclusion and concurred in it?
Mr. Fain. Yes, sir.
Mr. Stern. In terms of your FBI procedures, what is the difference between marking a case closed or marking it pending?
Mr. Fain. Well, if it is a pending case, there is additional work to be done on it.
Mr. Stern. Specific additional work?
Mr. Fain. Yes, sir; specific leads to be done on the case.
Mr. Stern. And closed means that there are no such specific leads, is that right?
Mr. Fain. Yes, sir; that is right; it is closed.
