Mr. Coleman. Would you look at category K, and I would like to ask you whether the information which was in the file on Mr. Oswald, including the FBI reports, which were in the file of June 1963, should have caused Oswald to be put in category K?
Miss Knight. No; I don't think so.
Mr. Coleman. How about category R?
Mr. Dulles. Could you read category K?
Miss Knight. Yes; certainly. "K" is "Known or suspected Communist or subversive". And "does not include those falling within categories O and P".
Mr. Coleman. Would you tell me what "O" and "P" categories are?
Miss Knight. "O" is a category of cards in which the FBI has special interest. And "P" is also a project of the same sort.
Mr. Coleman. Has the FBI ever put defectors in that category?
Miss Knight. Yes; we are given the names and we put a lookout card in the file. But we are not told the reason why. We simply advise the agency involved.
Mr. Coleman. In other words, if the FBI merely sends you a report on a particular person, that wouldn't cause you to put someone in "O" and "P"? It is only when the FBI says put the person in "O" or "P"?
