Mr. Snyder. I think that a review perhaps of a few other of the cases of American citizens marrying Soviet girls during the time I was there might show that 6 months is not a terribly short period. There isn't, again, any standard for things like this. In the first place, so much depends upon the local officials in the beginning of the thing, and whether they drag their feet or don't, and how much pressure they put on the girl to talk her out of it, and all of this sort of business.
My offhand feeling is that 6 months is not an unusually short period of time, but it certainly is getting down to about probably the minimum of our experience with such things.
Mr. Dulles. That is all I have, Mr. Witness.
Mr. Coleman. Mr. Chairman, at this time I would like to offer for the record Commission Exhibits 908 through 940 except for Exhibit 911, which we didn't identify.
Mr. Dulles. Let me take these one at a time.
Exhibits Nos. 908 through 940, except for Exhibit No. 911, shall be admitted.
(The documents heretofore marked for identification as Commission Exhibits Nos. 908–910, and 912–940 were received in evidence.)
Mr. Dulles. Now, for the record, what about these two numbers that are omitted?
Mr. Coleman. When Mr. McVickar testifies he will be able to identify the documents.
Mr. Dulles. You will have these admitted at a later date?
