Mr. DULLES. Would you make a note of that. I think we should do that. That was dated sometime in the middle of January? Mr. MARTIN. I believe so. The letter you have--she wadded the letter up that was written to her in Russian and threw it away, and I got it back out, and asked her to go ahead and write them a letter so it would quiet them. So she said she would and she wrote a letter, I think, that night, so it would be within a couple of days of the date of that letter, the English copy of which you have. Mr. REDLICH. Mr. Chairman, if you would like, we could take a 3- or 4-minute recess and I could get the American Civil Liberties Union letter to Marina Oswald and introduce it at this time for the sake of clarity in the record. Mr. DULLES. Good. It is a good time for a breather. (Short recess.) The CHAIRMAN. All right, gentlemen, the Commission will be in order. You are familiar with, Mr. Dulles, you are familiar with, the hearing up to date. You go right ahead and preside, if you will. Mr. DULLES. Mr. Redlich will you go right ahead with your questions? Mr. REDLICH. I believe Congressman Ford, you said you wanted to ask your questions prior to your leaving. Representative FORD. Do you wish to have that letter entered as an exhibit at this point before I ask several questions? Mr. REDLICH. The witness has produced before this Commission a letter which I now mark Commission Exhibit No. 331 on the Dallas Civil Liberties Union stationery, addressed to Mr. John Thorne, James Martin, Mr. Sorrels, Secret Service, Mrs. Lee H. Oswald, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. I ask that it be introduced in evidence. Mr. DULLES. Any objection? Mr. LEECH. No. Mr. DULLES. It will be introduced. (The letter referred to was marked for identification as Commission Exhibit No. 331 and received in evidence.) The CHAIRMAN. Have you seen it? Mr. MARTIN. Yes. Mr. REDLICH. Mr. Chief Justice, we have introduced that because just prior to the recess we were discussing it and Congressman Ford indicated he had to leave I believe and I wanted to ask some questions. The CHAIRMAN. Go ahead. Mr. DULLES. Could I ask one question on this letter for clarification? It is my understanding it is your belief that Mrs. Oswald received a copy of this letter in Russian? Mr. MARTIN. Well, she received a letter on this letterhead written in Russian. Now whether it was an exact copy, I don't know. Mr. DULLES. About the length of this letter as far as you could tell? Mr. MARTIN. Yes. Mr. DULLES. At about the same time? Mr. MARTIN. Yes, it was the same day. Mr. DULLES. That was the letter she crumpled up and put in the wastepaper basket? Mr. MARTIN. Yes. Mr. DULLES. But you retrieved it from the wastepaper basket, did you not say? Mr. MARTIN. Yes, sir, and asked her to answer it. Mr. DULLES. Where is that copy that you retrieved from the wastepaper basket? Mr. MARTIN. I don't know. Mr. DULLES. Maybe reassigned to the wastepaper basket?
