Miss Knight. Well, the first time that I actually had an opportunity to look through the passport file was last Saturday.
Mr. Coleman. Did you get a chance to read each document in the file?
Miss Knight. I read through the file; yes.
Mr. Coleman. Did you have occasion to form any judgment whether based upon the information that was in the file you would have reached the same decision as Waterman and White did with respect to Oswald?
Miss Knight. Yes; I certainly did. From that standpoint, I did go through the papers carefully. I am convinced that insofar as any expatriative act is concerned that we made the only decision that we could. The same decision was reached by the consul who interviewed Mr. Oswald in Moscow, at the Embassy, and I think, with all the facts on record, we had to come to the conclusion that Oswald did not perform any expatriative act.
(At this point, the Chief Justice left the hearing room.)
Miss Knight (continuing). May I ask one question, please?
Mr. Coleman. Yes.
Miss Knight. I have a statement here, some notes that I prepared this morning which are based on the information I read in the file. These are some comments I would make and I think they may be helpful to you. Could I refer to them or possibly read them to you?
Would that be all right?
