Mr. COLEMAN. Well, it is a reference sheet dated 10-5-61, which
indicates that a Thermofax copy of the Department of State Instruction
No. A-173, dated April 13, 1961, was sent to the CIA.
Is that correct?
Miss WATERMAN. I know nothing about that. That is something that was
entirely outside of our Adjudication Division, our Foreign Operations
Division.
Mr. COLEMAN. But the reference indicates that it was prepared by Robert
D. Johnson, Chief Counsel, Passport Office, under date of 10-5-61, is
that correct?
Miss WATERMAN. I am looking at it. Yes. But that was nothing that
emanated from our part of the Passport Office.
Mr. COLEMAN. After you prepared and had sent forward the Department
of State instruction dated April 13, 1961, you then, on or about May
26, 1961, received the Embassy Foreign Despatch of that date, is that
correct?
Miss WATERMAN. Yes, yes.
Mr. COLEMAN. And that despatch, which is your No. X-34, has been given
Commission Exhibit No. 973, states that the Embassy had received
another letter from Oswald, is that correct?
Miss WATERMAN. Yes; I am looking at a copy.
