[84]In March 1953 the SCHLUMBERGER file reflects that an FBI source
[85]furnished information that. one Maurice Renri MARTIN, employed es an -
[86]enginear by the SCHLUMBERGER Company, Paris, France, received a letter
[87]dated 27 July 1951 at Moscow from one Sieg@ied Stefanovitch MOROSOFF,
[88]seking MARTIN for specialized information concerning geophysics. The |
[89]letter requested that MARTIN's reply be forwarded to Moscow through en inter-
[90]mediary. From January 1932 util April 1937 MARTIN represented the SCHLUMBERGER
[91]Company in Russia as an engineer, and it was thought that the correspondence
[92]from MOROSOFF may represent a Soviet attempt to resume contact with MARTIV
[93]end develop clandestine relations with him. The FBI conducted an investi-
[94]gation dated Jime 1953 and determined that Maurice Henri MARTIN resided
[95]at Nod Hill, Wilton, Connecticut and was employed by the SCHLUMBERGER
[96]Well Surveying Co., Ridgefield, Connecticut. Informants adviseé that
[97]elthough MARTIN was strongly nationalistic toward France, he Pave every
[98]4ndication of being enti-Russien and there was no evidence of CP activities.
