Representative Ford. You can only——
Mr. Belmont. Say based on the evidence that we have or which developed or all information that we received, there was no indication that Oswald was in any way connected or within the service of a foreign government.
Representative Ford. But there is a difference in the way you can answer those two questions.
Mr. Belmont. There is a difference, yes; there is a difference because in the one case we know, in the other case we rely on all the information and evidence available.
Representative Ford. But as far as a foreign government is concerned, you only know what you have been able to find out?
Mr. Belmont. That is correct, sir.
Representative Ford. There is always the possibility in the second case, involving a foreign government, that something might come up at some other time.
Mr. Belmont. There is always the possibility. We have no indication of it. There is always the possibility; yes, sir.
Representative Ford. But you cannot be as categorical about the future in the second case as you were in the first case.
Mr. Belmont. Yes, sir; you are right.
