Now, the question whether Oswald meets these criteria here as set forth is a question of judgment. As I say, right now we do furnish all defectors.
Representative Ford. Defectors are for the time being at least a special category other than what is set forth here unless for some other reason they would fall into one of these categories.
Mr. Belmont. Yes.
Mr. McCloy. Do you under that category send forward all Communists?
Mr. Belmont. Yes.
Mr. McCloy. All Communists, yes.
Mr. Dulles. Mr. Chairman, I wonder whether or not it would be wise for the record at this point to read into the record, in view of the importance of this, this paragraph which we are now discussing and which, as I understand it, contains the new definition of investigative cases?
The Chairman. Yes; we can put it into the record.
Mr. Dulles. Mr. Belmont, as I understand it, the new criteria are set forth in paragraph 2 on page 2 of the Manual of Instructions, section 83; is that correct?
Mr. Belmont. That is correct.
