                      SUBJECT:   Report of Interrogation of 6 August 1965


                            1. Today's  session was from 1000 to 1200 and from
                       1305 to 1410. As  planned, ( started the session by sum-
                       marizing for Subject the results of the first six sessions,
                       listing for him approximately twenty points on which he had
                       failed badly.  (bunmary list attached.)  At first Subject
                       attempted to contest the points as I cited them, for exam-
                       ple, on the variations in the KOBULOV story, and on the
                       location of ROZEENKO's office, but when I gave him the
                       facts he did not challenge them and be listened to most of
                       the litany in silence.  I told Sbbject that the results of
                       these sessions had confirmed further the previous findings.
                       I asked him why he continued to cling to his legend, and
                       reminded him that he had turned down the opportunity
                       offered to him last spring to change his mind while we
                       still could takesteps  to preserve his operational useful-
                       aess.  I said that this opportunity was now past, but that
                       I did not want to conceal from him the fact that he still
                       had knowledge and information which-could be useful to us.
                       However, there was a.time limit even to this.  I reminded
                       him that be had been out of circulation for a long time
                       and that many things had happened in the world and especially
                       in the Soviet Union during this time; for example, KERU-
                       SBCHE was  no longer in power (Subject's comment, as ex-
                       pected, was Thank God!).  Other changes had taken place.
                       If Subject did not make up his mind to tell the truth, his
                       490 days could easily turn into 4000, and he would not be
                       of interest to anyone.  I told Subject again, that he had
                       nothing to fear, no matter what he had done in the past,
                       that we would not prosecute him for any past crimes, no
                       matter how bad.  If he were worried about reprisal from
                       Soviet security organs, I told him that we were just as
                       capable of keeping his confession secret as we were of keep-
                       Ing secret the fact that we knew he was a provocateur for
                       a year and a half before his defection.  I promised his
