Legislative Counsel
1. Reference is made to your memorandum of 6 June 1952,
subject as above, to Legislative Counsel.
2. I have discussed this matter with Mr. Wisner, who has
brought it to the Director's attention, and as a result I have informed
Mr. Mitchell, Counsel to the Committee investigating the Katyn Forest
Massacre that --
25X1 C
a. ad recently emerged from behind
the Iron Curtain;
b. he is prepared to testify as to his knowledge
of the Katyn Massacre; 25X1C
c, it would be difficult for us to bring
to this country for at least a month. but that it would be
possible t s-. bring him here later in, the year; and
d. we would secure the best possible deposition
25X1C from if the Committee desired one.
3. The Committee does not plan to hear any more witnesses
for several weeks and may not hold any hearings until September. Mean-
time it wishes to know whether would be willing to testify in
public or whether publicity concerning his name would harm relatives
or friends still behind the Iron Curtain. I would like to have you ascer-
tain that fact for me..
