On 2 November 1959, the FBI liaison officer requested a_. trace be run on Lee Harvey OSWALD in the !E central hold- ings. L' response on 4 November was negative. Because of the counterintelligence implications of OSWALD's action, the Counter Intelligence Staff opened an offi- cial file on Lee Harvey OSWALD to accommodate biographic infor- mation developed by the Agency in response to a Department of State inquiry, dated 25 October 1960, on a list of American de- fectors in Soviet Bloc countries. OSWALD's name was one of those appearing on the list. CIA forwarded an interim reply on 3 November 1960; a final reply on 21 November 1960.
