[10]MEMO FOR THE RECORD
[12]1. At.0900 this morning I talked with Frank Friberg recently
[13]returned COS Helsinki re Warren Commission inquiry concerning
[14]the timetable of Oswald's stay in Finland in October 1959, including
[15]his contact with the Soviet Consulate there. (Copy of the Commission
[16]letter of 25 May 64 and State Cable of 22 May 64 attached.)
[18]2. Friberg gave me the following information:
[20]_ a. It takes 25 minutes to drive from the airport to
[21]_ downtown Helsinki;
[23]b. By taxi, it would take no more than 5 minutes’ to
[24]reach the Soviet consulate;
[26]c. The Soviet consulate probably closed at 1300 hours local
[27]time 6n Saturdays in 1959;
[29]d. Passenger lists (manifests) at the U.S. Consulate in
[30]Helsinki are retained for six months only and then are destroyed.
[31]Mr. Robert Fulton (CIA) was U.S. consular official there at
[33]the time.
[35]e. A copy of State's cable inquiry would go to the Helsinki
[36]Station and they would assist in preparation of-a reply.
[38]3. Mr. Friberg agreed that it would be worthwhile to cable the
[40]Station concerning points not covered by State in their inquiry. He
[41]suggested changes incorporated into the cable sent to Helsinki.
