Mr. Snyder. Normally not, I would say.

Representative Ford. Were you at all aware of the 5,000 rubles that Oswald was given by Soviet authorities or by an agency of the Soviet Union which is sometimes called, I guess, the Red Cross? Are you at all aware of that?

Mr. Snyder. No.

Representative Ford. Are you aware of that organization in the Soviet Union?

Mr. Snyder. Oh, yes.

Representative Ford. Would you describe it for us, as far as you know what it is?

Mr. Snyder. Well——

Representative Ford. 5,000 rubles—excuse me.

Mr. Snyder. This was the old rubles at that time. No; I don't——

Mr Dulles. For the record, what was the date of the change in the value of the ruble? I think I remember it. It was around 1960—May-June of 1960, I think.
