Mr. Jenner. Also, I gather that you are a pretty lively character.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Maybe so. I hope so. All sorts of speculation have arisen from time to time. And I don't mind, frankly, because when you don't have anything to hide, you see, you are not afraid of anything. I am very outspoken.
Mr. Jenner. I understand that you are, from witnesses I have interviewed, and from these mountains of reports.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Yes; I can imagine. By the way, those reports—again, you see this inquiry is probably going to hurt my business. I hope they are conducted somehow delicately.
Mr. Jenner. Now, I was asking you to tell me about your father.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Yes.
Mr. Jenner. Up to the time of his death, from what you understand to be the circumstances of death.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Yes; well, my father, then, therefore, was an important official of the Czarist government. But he was a liberal—he had very liberal ideas. He, for instance, was——
Mr. Jenner. Now, liberal, to me, over in that country would mean nothing. You tell us what you mean by that.
Mr. De Mohrenschildt. Liberal means disliked anti-Semitism, the persecution of Jews.
