Mrs. Oswald. We had some difficulties in connection with the fact that I told my uncle and aunt that we were going to leave for the United States. Lee did not want me to tell anybody that we were preparing to leave for the United States.
Representative Ford. That was the only difficulty you had?
Mrs. Oswald. Yes.
Representative Ford. Was your vacation trip to Kharkov—was that a vacation, or did that result from any marital difficulty?
Mrs. Oswald. My aunt invited me to Kharkov, and that is why I went. It was not the result of any marital difficulties.
Representative Ford. You testified a few minutes ago, Mrs. Oswald, that there was a difference in the historic diary and what Lee Oswald told you concerning the status of his application for Soviet citizenship. You have read the historic diary?
Mrs. Oswald. I have only read what the FBI agents translated, those parts of the diary which were translated into Russian by the FBI.
Representative Ford. Was that much of it or a small part of it?
Mrs. Oswald. It was the part about his attempt at suicide.
Representative Ford. And also the part concerning the status of his Soviet citizenship?
