In Paris from 1929 he became an active head of the
Cgmintgrn and tha G-.P._U. In bpin fI0£l1 1951 he COH-
tinued_with executive duties and from 1933 on hecollaborated in Spain with PIERRE. During the Span-
ish war Subject participated in executions of the G.P.U. in Barcelona, and made several trips abroad among
which was one to eatinamerica as an agent of the above
mentio ed organizations. His wife's name is AMPARO -,,RUIZ5/RShe also made trips abroad during this time as
an agent of the above mentioned organizations. She
represented the Comintern at Pedagogic Qongresses of
the French and Belgian organizations. -MARIN is 58 years
.or age,_tal1 and thin, hairblack and slightly gray, ,
wears glasses, and always $m0ke5_a pipe. AMPARO RUIZ
is 36 years old, short, obese, dark ccmplected, very
energetic in her actions, very intelligent, of su-
perior character to subject! and therefore very well
thought of in Spanish Communism. She accompanied Sub-
ject on his trips to Latinamerica which she is very
familiar with. PIERRE has such confidence in MARIN
that after the fall of Spain he was the only agent that
lived with PIERRE at Melun, Capital of Sena and Marne,
until five months after declaration of war Feb. 1940}
when PIERRE disappeared and MARIN was detained in the
above mentioned Department from whence he left France
to come to America. Subjeot's passport was visaed for
Mexico by Minister BASSOLS, and it is probable that
because ofthis Subject came to hexico.A ' . '1. .

Valencia she had absolute power as an agent or the G.
P.U. and she had executed many members of the Inter-
national Brigades,jas well as many others through the
medium of the Sljhilitary Investigation Service!.whioh

SANTIAGO'GARCIA., He came here under passport visaed
by the Embassy during the time of BASSOLS!. Subject
was evacuated to France and was one of the persons the
G.P.U. was most interested in getting to Latinamerica
where she presently is even though it is not known
whether she is in Mexico, Chile, Santa Domingo, or 7
some other country, bat it is most probable that she
is in Mexico. " sf . 55? - - -. -

Dear 5ir:
Reference is made to Bureau letters dated January 4, 1941
and March 8, 1941 and to a letter from the New York Office to theBureau dated February 20, 1941 in the aEive entitled case concerning
the advisability of interviewing SYL¥IA 'GELOFF, one of the subjects
in this case;-
As indicated in the letter from the New York Office to the
Bureau SYLVIA AGEEBFF is, according to a confidential informant of
this office, disliked and distrusted by both the Communists and Trotsky
ites, the Trotskyites blaming her for causing the death of TROTSKY and
the Communists hating her for being a Trotskyite.
Publicity in
and it is believed
that SYLVIA AGELOFF maythis case has subsided altogether in New York
that inasmuch as the information indicated'Q
be willing to give information and inasmuch
as nothing has thus far been developed in this case, an interviel
. with MESS AGELOFF may prove of paramount value. ~? .I'g.I L__
oity
X
J
i
1 . _
In view of the foregoing facts, the New'York Office is 1
desirous of knowing whether the Bureau is agreeable to having SYLVIA
AGELOFF interviewed in the near future. .

Dear Sir:
Reference is made to the report of Special Agent
R. S. GARNER, dated at New York City March 2, 191.2 in the
aboveca;ptioned matter, which sets forth a lead for the
Albany Field Division to ascertain the identity of L. R.IKBRADLIEY at Bernard, Vermont.
1
However, in view of the fact. that it is believed
that no worthwhile purpose would be achieved in covering
~ this lead, it is therefore suggested that it be disregarded.'
Very truly yours, /1 "

in Connecticut, Ruth Ageloff now being married.
Sylvia Rgeloff, now going under the name of Sylvia Maslow,
was interviewed on the evening of April l5, l9h2 in her apartment, She
was greatly perturbed as to how her present address was ascertained and
said that only the members of her immediate family knew where she resided.
She said she wished her present residence to be kept a secret, inasmuch
as she wanted to forget the'events of a few years ago and continue to
live in peace and quiet. '
.- She also stated that everything pertaining to her association
with Frank Jacson and the murder of Leon Trotsky is contained in testimony t
she gave in the District Court in Mexico City, and a perusal of these
records would reveal any and all facts desired.
She was most reluctant at first to discuss her association
with Frank Jacson and Trotsky's murder, but after much preliminary
discussion, she finally conversed freely, evaded no questions, and seemed
to answer with complete candor and honesty. It should be observed that
Sylvia Ageloff is extremely intelligent and well spoken.
She stated that she first became interested in the Trotsky
Movement in college as an academic study, as she did not think democracy
and capitalism were as ideal and beneficial as they should be, She said
she has never advocated revolution or the forceful overthrow of the
United States Government, or any other government, but felt that the so-
called democratic capitalistic governments could be improved upon greatly.
|,.gm_s§he said that she was just interested in Trotskyism as a suggested alterna+1Pv
for modification and improvement of the United States Government and
governments of all countries, inasmuch as she could not.countenance Stalin-
ism because of the poor example set by the present Communist Regime in
Russia which country, she pointed out, appears to be much worse off than
the United States.
She said she never joined the Socialiat_Workers Party, never
became a duespaying member, nor did she ever hold any office. She declare»
that she merely read literature published by the Socialist Workers Party
and attended meetings and affairs sponsored by it for the public at large.
that in fast she had never met Trotsky until

She said she decided to take a trip to Europe in the spring =
- of l938 and naturally all her friends soon knew of her plans. She said f
that one day a friend named RUBY WEIL telephoned and asked her whether ,_ . . . . . .she could join her, inasmuch as she was also planning a trip to Europe. t
She said she had no objection and they both sailed for Prris together, ,5where they stayed at the St. Germain Hotel. i - Ki kg . 1 _ _
ti 'sn¢ said she was introduced to Frank Jacson by Ruby Wéil ...
. S -on July 1, 1938, and thereafter the three of them went around Faris vjt
together, seldom out of each other's company. She found Jacson to be *
. . a_personable, generous, warmrhearted individual and thoroughly enjoyed , .-~his company. She said they soon became enamored of each other and later _ §, .= became lovers. She described Jacson as a playboy type who seemed to g ,' have plenty of money and never worked. According to Sylvia Ageloff, if
Jacson never evidenced an interest in Trotskyism or any other political
ideology, and she did not attempt to initiate him into Trotskyism. .
-- She said he read little and did not appear to care anything about the. . .problems of the world. She insisted she never went to Brussells, Belgium
with him or met any of his family. -
v_ She said that while he claimed to be Belgian, she could not //
- vouch for this, although he spoke French like a native. In fact, she
asserted, Jacson might well have been of any nationality, but she always
believed him to be Belgian, as he claimed.
--_ Continuing, Sylvia Ageloff stated that she returned to New
@, York City in February, 1939 and shortly thereafter Jacson turned up,
-.-_ having used a fraudulent Yugoslavian passport, invvhich he claimed to
**"* w $e a Yugoslavian, so that he could leave Belgium, in view of the fact
=- that as a Belgian he would be liable to induction into the Belgian Army
' f3_ because of the approaching war. She said this explanation of his use
' of a fraudulent passport seemed logical to her. She said even before
. Jacson turned up in New York City he had informed her he always wanted pr
togo to the United States but that his family objected. He told her
that when his family finally learned that nothing could prevent him from is
.» going to the United States, his mother gave him $3,000.00. tr. ',

" Sylvia Agcloff said that Jacson told her he had obtained a J

and Mexico. Luback, according to Jacson, was formerly an importer and ' "

the war. Jacson told Sylvia Ageloff that Luback had an office in either gwSan Francisco or Los Angeles, and also in Mexico City. '1 l

Sylvia Ageloff said that after remaining in New York City 7
for a few weeks Jacson went to Mexico City, where he said he had to
handle Luback's business for him. Thereafter, she said, she and Jaoson
corresponded with each other. e "__
Sylvia Ageloff stated that she next saw Jacson in Mexico
City during January, February and March, l9L0, where she had gone to
recuperate frcmsinusitis. According to Sylvia Ageloff she saw much
of Jacson in Mexico City, where he was apparently busily engaged attending
to business transactions for Luback. She said he would even quote prices
of copra, sugar, oil, etc., explain the difficulties with Mexican labor,
and point out the slowness of shipping, etc., thus convincing.her at
least that he was bone fide.
In January, l9h0 she said,
friends, ALFRED and MARGUERITE OSEMERE,City sometime around 1937. S;:Rhelieves them to be French, butdoes
not know where they are at the present time. She said Jacson did not
meet Trotsky during her three-month stay in Mexico City, and she did
not know Trotsky well enough to introduce Jacson to him.she met Trotsky through two
whom she had met in New York
' According to Sylvia Ageloff, she returned to New York City
about March 30, l9h0. She next saw Jecson in New York City for about
two weeks in June, l9hO, when they lived together at the Pierrepont
Hotel in Brooklyn. Jacson's explanation for this particular trip was
that he had to attend to some financial details for Luback at the British
Consul's Office in New York City. _ i
gge Jacson told her then that he had met Trotsky a short time -
'previous to his present visit, but did not say who introduced him. At
this time he told her he would return in September, l9hO for another _
visit. She said that-early in August, l9h0 Jacson wrote her that he was
desperately ill and urged her to come to Mexico City to see him. She
demurred, since he had previously indicated he would visit New York City
in September. However, he wrote to her that he might not be able to
make the trip in September and that he would like to see her in Mexico
City. She said that inasmuch es her vacation was scheduled for August,
19b0, she decided to go to Mexico City, and did so by airplane. e
* With regard to Trotsky's murder, Sylvia Ageloff stated that
on August 20, l9L0, the day Trotsky was fatally assaulted by Jacson, he
lsft,her early in the afternoon but said he would join her, together with
OTTO SCHEUSSLER and his wife, for dinner that evening. Schcussler,
she explained, was an Austrian and was employed as e translator and body-
guard by Trotsky. As such he had to call Trotsky's home frequently to

and that when Scheussler had occasion to telephone Trotskys residence
4""on one oi his routine telephone calls he was informed of Jacson's murderous
attack on Trotsky. She said that they then all hurried out to the Trotsky
residence in suburban Mexico City, at which time she was taken into custody

' had assaulted Trotsky and when he, Trotsky, later died, she could not
_ believe that it had actually occurred. She asserted that she never
harbored any notion Jacson would attempt to murder Trotsky, but in looking
- back on past events and her association with Jacson, she became convinced,
as were the Mexico City Police and press, that_Jacson was either an OGPU
agent or was compelled by that agency to do away with Trotsky. She
believed that she was merely a "catspaw" and dupe for Jacson. She felt
that Jacson may have been compelled to commit the crime for fear of
reprisals to family or relatives in Europe. She averred she believed
Trotsky's murder was scheduled to take place sometime in 19b0, but that
her arrival in Mexico City furnished a good opportunity for committing
the crime at that tine, inasmuch as a large part of the suspicion ..

4 ' During the whole time she knew Jacson, she stated, he never
once made any false moves or dropped any indications or suggestions that
he was connected with the OGPU, and she believed that in view of the entire
falsity of his past personal life as related by him to her and to_the

he had been such a consummate actor during his relationship with her as ;
to completely fool her. If this assumption were not true, she suggested fi

_that because of some pressure for fear of reprisals to his family or
