Mr. STERN. We were getting, Mr. Belmont, to the question of whether you had been personally involved in the investigation since the assassination. Mr. BELMONT. I said I have indeed. Mr. STERN. Yes. As a part of that you have reviewed in detail the investigation made prior to the assassination? Mr. BELMONT. Yes. Mr. STERN. Have you participated in or supervised the preparation of reports and other correspondence to the Commission in response to questions from the Commission? Mr. BELMONT. Yes. Mr. STERN. I show you a letter with attached memorandum which has been marked for identification Commission Exhibit No. 833. Can you identify this document, Mr. Belmont? (The document referred to was marked Commission Exhibit No. 833 for identification.) Mr. BELMONT. This is a letter transmitted on April 6, 1964, to Mr. Rankin by the FBI with enclosure answering a number of questions which the Commission posed to the FBI. Mr. STERN. Did you supervise the preparation of this letter? Mr. BELMONT. Yes. Mr. STERN. And you have reviewed it and are familiar with it? Mr. BELMONT. Yes. Mr. STERN. We have covered in your answers to Mr. Dulles and Mr. McCloy a good deal of the material in here. I would like briefly to touch upon several of the questions, the more important questions, regarding the nature of the FBI's interest in Lee Harvey Oswald at various times, and I would like you to refer to each question that I indicate but not read your answer. Paraphrase it. I think we have had a good deal of the specific detail but what I am interested in is a description from your examination of the investigation as it was carried on, of the nature of the FBI interest in Oswald. I would like to turn to the first question in which we asked---- The CHAIRMAN. You mean by that that you could get, we could get, a better idea from paraphrasing the answer than we could get from the exact answer itself? Mr. STERN. I think he might be able to highlight the answer. We have the exact answer on the record, and I thought it might---- The CHAIRMAN. Well, highlight it, if there is anything in addition I would think that would be relevant and pertinent. But to ask him to paraphrase that which he has done with great meticulousness would seem to me to be abortive and would take a lot of our time, and I don't see what it would prove. If you have anything in addition that you want to ask him, if you want to ask him if there is anything in addition he has not put in there, that is all right. But to just ask him to paraphrase answers that have been done with great care would seem to me to be confusing the record, and serve no purpose. Mr. STERN. I might ask, Mr. Belmont, whether there is anything you would like to add or amplify in these questions?
