Mrs. Oswald. That's different there.
Senator Russell. People are very much the same, aren't they, all over the world? If a man in the neighborhood gets drunk and beats and abuses his wife and children, isn't that discussed by all the people in the block—in that area?
Mrs. Oswald. **Sometimes during a life of 20 years with a husband, everything will be all right, and then some occasion will arise or something will happen that the wife will learn about what kind of person he is.
*I know of one family in the Soviet Union in Minsk, where a husband was married to a woman 17 years, and he just went to another woman.
For 1 year.
*For 1 year—then he came back to the first one full of shame and repentance and he cried and she took him back in. He lived with her for 3 days and then left her again. He was excluded from the party.
Senator Russell. Excommunicated from the party?
Mrs. Oswald. **Expelled from the party.
*But he took all the possessions of their common property when he left.
Senator Russell. I'm taking too much time, and I will hurry along. Did he ever beat you badly enough, Mrs. Oswald, for you to require the services of a doctor, a physician?*
