Mr. Jenner. What was the general reputation, if any, of Marina in the Russian community on the subject of whether she had any fixed political views and might actively support those views here in the United States?

Mr. Mamantov. No; I don't know this—I mean—I don't have any opinion. I haven't heard anything—I know that she didn't—she avoided political discussions, I'll put it this way.

Mr. Jenner. She did?

Mr. Mamantov. She did avoid political discussions.

Mr. Jenner. I take it from your testimony, you are acquainted with the Fords?

Mr. Mamantov. That's correct.

Mr. Jenner. I think you said Mr. Bouhe was a bachelor?

Mr. Mamantov. That's correct. He is a bachelor now—he was married—he's divorced.

Mr. Jenner. He's a grass widower?

Mr. Mamantov. Right, but he was a very short time widower—he could be married.
