"__-_In late 1.937 or ea? l938, GOLD was being handledby his unknown Russian contact, STEVE HARTZ, to whom GOLD had been giving information concerning chemical processes mostly from the Penn- 'sylvenia Sugar Company where GOLD was employed. ' -
GOLD advised that at about this time, he had givennearly all of the material at Pennsylvania Sugar in which the Russians _.would be interested, and STEVE began pressing him to obtain more recruits
and to give more information.Therefore, in late l937 or early 1938 at a Saturdwafternoon meeting in New York City, STEVE introduced GOLD to his next _Russian contact whom he knew only as FRED. -
GOLD stated that on this Saturday afternoon, he metSTEVE at a meeting previously arranged and they went to a restaurant on upper Broadway in the 80's. GOLD could not recall the exact location 'of the restaurant, but was er the opinion that it was a chain restaurantsuch as Rudleys. While they were seated in the restaurant, STEVE asked _GOLD to wait a moment and he left the restaurant, but returned in about" /five minutes. GOLD was under the impression that STEVE made a telephonecall. About five minutes after STEVE returned, a man entered the res-taurant a.nd was introduced to GOLD as FRED. Just before FRED approachedthem, STEVE asked GOLD to give the sign of recognition which GOLD did.GOLD stated he could not recaJ.'L whet the sign of recognition was u.nle_e _it was merely to nod or smile at the man.

STEVE informed GOLD that the reason he wasleaving was that he had not been feeling well. - J ' - " -
' ' ' GOLD said that after association with FRED, hecame to the conclusion that the reason STEVE turned him over to FREDwas that GOLD was not producing very much information, and since FREDwas what GOLD described as a "tough guy", he thought that perhaps theRussians were of the opinion FRED could get GOLD to do more.
' S1'EVEleftthemandGOI.Dand1-RIllthenmadear- ~_rangements for a subsequent meeting, and during GOLD's association withFRED, each meeting was arranged in the future on a specific date withan alternate meeting provided for. Each meeting was a definite datesuch as June l8, together with the details, and never was arranged suchas the third Friday in June, or the like. ' "
GOLD described FRED as a "strict disciplinarian"who "lived by the book". when asked to enlarge upon this, GOLD saidthat FRED was more insistent upon GOLD's being careful when meeting himthan axw of his Russian contacts. GOLD was of the opinion that it wasFRED who told him that if he wanted to check and see if he were beingfollowed, to stop and tie his shoelace, or walk up deserted side streets.FRED also advised him that any time GOLD had to tear up a piece of p&p0P--- -which had some connection with his activity with the Russians, it shouldbe torn up in very small pieces and each piece dropped in a separateblock while GOLD was walking down the treat.In addition, GOLD said that FRED was constantlysuggesting that he obtain more information, and when GOLD stated thatPennsylvania Sugar had very few possibilities left, FRED insisted thatGOLD obtain a position with the Government and GOLD distinctly recallsthe suggestion that he obtain employment at the Philadelphia Navy Yard.GOLD said he never did this and during his entire association with -FRED, he merely supplied FRED with "odds and ends" relative to chemicalprocesses obtained from the Pennsylvania Sugar Comparq. .

GOLD " 'stated that FRED told him to put the paper containing the informationH11 ian contact,between the folds of newspapers and when the two met the esnews per but with nothing in it, would exchangewho was also carrying a pa papers with GOLD. FRED also sud that if the information were sobullq that the use of a wrapper was necessitated, it should be wrapped
in plain brown paper.In this regard GOLD stated although he had notdefinitely attributed it to FRED, he was given instructions that heshouJ.d never wear anything with any initial on it such as a tie clasp,belt buckle, or the like, or wear any ring with an unusual design, orwsar anything which might attract the attention of someone who might
be looking at GOLD._ GOLD said that he did not have very many meetingswith FRED and GOLD tried to arrange them as infrequently as possible, th more frequently. GOLD stated thatwhereas FRED would try to arrange em he met FRED once in Philadelphia but the remainder of the meetings werein New I rk City. GOLD could not recaJJ. the details of the meeting inPhiladelhia, and only the barest recollection of the meetings in New
York City-A GOLD said that on one occasion FRE offered him $$O____which was refused. GOLD said that he was very short at the time and .actually he considered taking it for a brief moment because he did notPhiladel hia. At theknow whether he had enough money to get back to pwith FRED GOLD said that FRED was very ingratiatingfollowing meeting , and told GOLD that he should reconsider the offer of money. FRED told -cord that money had previously been offeredGOLD that "they" had it on re _to GOLD but it had been refused. GOLD advised FRED that his expenseswere very-inconsequential inasmuch as the train fare from Philadelphiato New York was only about $1.50 or $1.75 and further, that he never hadaccepted money from his previous contacts and therefore he did not want
to start. J .GOLD recalled another meeting with'FR.ED along 5thh with FRED a very short 'Avenue in the 90's. He recalled that e was f tim but that FRED had stated that he had somewhere else to Ea

GOLD said that they did meetlater on in the day at a spot on 5th Avenue either a little above or alittle below the place where they met earlier in the day.
GOLD said that he definitely formed the opinionthat FRED was handling other agents inasnmch as he stated several timesto GOLD that he had someone else to see or somewhere else to go.
GOLD stated that his last meeting with FRED wasin the late summer or early fall just before his enrollment at XavierUniversity. GOLD said that he got on a train at 30th Street Stationin Philadelphia to go to New York to keep his appointment with FEE,at which time GOLD had definitely decided he was going to Cincinnatito enroll in Xavier. GOLD said that he obtained a seat in a non-smokingcoach and was walking through the train shortly after it lett the stationto go to the smoker and saw FRED sitting on the train. Their eyes metbut FRED looked away and GOLD continued walking to the smoking car wherehe said he either put a newspaper or his hat in a seat and than decidedto turn around and go back to see FRED. GOLD stated that he went backto where he had seen FRED but the latter was gone and GOLD saw him no-where on the train. GOLD stated he is pretty definite that this train
had come from Washington, D. O.
V GOLD stated that for a brief instant when their eyesmet, FRED gave the appearance of being "scared to death". _
On arriving in New York, GOLD went to the appointedspot. GOLD could not recall where this meeting took place but recalledthat it was raining and he kept looking for FRED who usually were atrench-type rain coat. GOLD said that FRED showed up about Q hour lateand it was GOLD's opinion that FRED had been thinking about whether heshould see GOLD on this occasion or not. GOLD stated that when FREDcams up he glared at GOLD for a few moments and when GOLD started to . _mention the train incident, FRED immediately brushed him off and saidthat he had other things to talk about, giving GOLD the definite im-_ ,pression that FRED did not want to mention the train incident. _ ',

Brothmea was first questioned regarding his submitting information or furnishing blue prints to any indiv-iduals who might have connections with a foreign government. Brothman stated that he had furnished blue prints to a number of individuals, and itwas a comon practice in the engineering field to submit blue prints to certain lnd1viduals'Iho might possibly be in a position to obtain contracts
for a firm.Brothmen was then specifically questioned as to whether or not he had bbeen acquainted with an individual by the name of Jacob Golos. Brothmanstated that he could not recall this name, and a picture of Golos was exhibitedto him. Brothman denied knowing Golos at this time. Thcreupona picture"of informant Gregory was exhibited to him. Brothman identified Gregoryas an individual whom he knew as "Helen." Brothmen was thereupon visorously questioned as to his acquaintanceship with Helen. He then admitted that hedid recognize the photograph of Golos but was unable to state the name ofthis individual. Brothman than related the following concerning his know-
ledge ef Jacob Goloe and Hole:According to Brothman, sometime in 1938 or 1939 an individual cameto him at his office at 114 East 52nd Street, at which time Brothman*wnaoperating a firm under the name of the Republic Chemical Haohinery company,which company was associated with the Hendrick Hanufacturing Gopany at Carbondals, Pennsylvania. This individual told Brothman that he had contactswith the Russian government and that he was in a position to get-contracts from the Russian government for Brothman, if Brothnan would turn over to him__wblue prints of certain products Brothman was working on at that time. *Brothman states that the blue prints were his own property and they werefor the most part blue prints of shafts, vats, and other equipment necessaryin the operation of a plant manufacturing chemicals.According to Brothman, Goloe visited his office on several occasionsand sometime following his original visit he introduced him to an individualknown only as Helen. Brothman stated that he was under the impression thatHelen was secretary to Golos. Golos advised Brothman that Helen would inthe future obtain the blue prints which he had been accustomed to turn overto Goloa. 'Helen visited Brothmsn's office over a dozen times during 1958-195991940 and soetime in 1940 Helen stopped coming to his office and anotherindividual named Harry Gold came to his office and said he represented Golos;,j- 92, .,___-_

Brothman stated that Gold s that time wasliving in Philadelphia and used to mhe the trip to New York approximatelyevery three weeks and obtain these blue prints from Brothman. He said thatto the best of his recollection the last time Gold picked up the blue prints
was late in 1941 or early in 1942.Brothmnn was then questioned as to the whereabouts of Harry Gold,to which he replied that Gold is presently employed by bin as a chemist inhis laboratory in Elmhurst, Long Island. Brothman emphatically stated thatGold was the last individual to pich up any blue prints or material which .was te be furnished to Golos. He also stated that he did not know the presentwhereabote of Golos and denied that he was ever contacted by any etherindividuals other than Helen and Gold as individuals whe represented Golos.Brothman was qnestioned as to the nature of the blue prints that hehad turned over to Golee, at which time he displayed the blue prints, copiesof which he still had in his offices, and an examination of the blue printswas made and it was determined that they were all concerned with blue printsof shafts, filters, vats and other machinery used in the manufacture ofcheicals. Brethman stated that some of the blue pints which he turnedever to Goles and Helen as well as to Gold were returned to him, but otherswere retained by them. He emphatically denied that he had ever turned overany blue prints which were of a restricted or secret nature pertaining tothe war effort ef the U. S. or any plans which the U. S. might be connersed
with at that time.Relative to the Hendrick anufacturing Company at Garbondsle, Pennsylvania,Brothman stated that he himself had founded the Republic intnssnrn ChemicalHachinery Company which'sas set up as an engineering and designing companydealing solely with instruments and material to be used in the manufactureof chemicals. He stated that at the time he had formed the Republic ChemicalMachinery Gompny he was associated with the Hendrickzlanufaoturing Company and worked with that company until 1942. Brothman added that all of the -blue prints which bad been turned over to the individulls mentioned hereinbefoe were his own personal ppn property belonging solely to the firm that he "- .had founded. -Brothman was specifically questioned as to how he had become acquaintedwith Jacob Golos. He replied that possibly Geles knew of his firm throughadvertising in the various chemical magazines. He emphatically stated thatthis was the only possible way that Golos would get in touch with him anddenied that anybody had ever sent Golos to him. Brothman then stated thatit was a commo practice in the engineering field to turn over blue prints to various individuals in an effort to obtain contracts. He also statedthat this nnn was his sole purpose in turning over the blue prints to Goloii.namely, that Goloe had stated that he was in a position to obtain contractsfrom the Russian government. ,The following signed statement, the original of which is being retained"is this file, was obtained from Brothman: _ " * _ -E_- A?

Ho threats or premises of any nature weremade to be to make this statement. I know that what I say may be used against
me at any time in a court of law."In 1938 or 1959 a man whose name I do not recall but whose picturewas shown to me today by r. Shanon §_r._ Kr. O'Brien, came into my office at114 3. 32 St. where I ow_n_ and operated the Republic Chemical Machinery Co. which was associated by contract with Hendrick Manufacturing Cc. This mansaid he had contacts with the Russian government and he could get me contractswith the Russian government. I turned over several blue prints to him;these blue prints were my own for the most part and the purpose of turningthem over to him-was to obtain contracts. Shortly after this men cameto my office a woman by the name of Helen came to my office and said she represented this man, whose picture I have identified; I believed that thiswoman was the secretary of the man whose pictured I identified. I have identified Helen as the girl whose picture llr. Shannon dr. llr. O'Brien haveanal w shon to me. This Helen came to my office ovrr a dozen times during1938, 1959 8:. 1940. Then around 1940 another man whose name is Harry Goldcame to my office and he said he too represented the men whose picture I identified. Both Helen and Harry Gold would pick up blue prints from me forthis nnnl n man whose picture I have identified. Harry Gold is now employedby me as a chemist. The blue prints were sometimes returned by Helen andHarry Gold but not all of them. I still have the original of most of theblue prints that I turned over to them. Harry Gold made his last pick upof blue prints late in 1941 or early in 1942. _"Sometime! in 1938 or 1939 I became associated with Hendricks llachinery Go. and did work with them until 1942. The blue prints were my can and not - -- Hendricks. "
"I once contacted the man whose picture I have identified at a phonelisted to a Ir. Chester and the telephone exchange was Watkins to the best ofmy recollection. I often met this man and Helen, his Secretary at variousrestaurants in the mid-town area in New York City.I have not seen this man whose pictured I identified since 1941 or

Cold statedthat he was presently renting a room at Elmhrst, Long Island, and that hecommutes to Philadelphia on the week-ends. His address in Long Island wasgiven as 4209 Hampte 3treet, Elmhurst. Cold is residing with a family
named Pereira at this address.In the course ef the interview Harry Cold advised that he had beenemployed off and en since 1929 with the Pennsylvania Sugar Company. Duringhis employment with this company he became friendly with an individual bythe name of Garter Needless whose father was an official in the PennsylvaniaSugar Company. In October 1940, Cold advised, he attended a meeting of thAmerican Chemical Society at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsyl-vania, together with carter Needless. At the conclusibn of this meetingNeedless introduced him te an individual whom.he recalled as John Gelusho Celish phonetic!. A photograph of Jacob Colos was then exhibited toHarry Cold, and he identified this photograph as that of John Golush erColish to when he was introduced by Carter Needless in October 1940.
At the conclusion of this meeting at the American Chemical Societyand after the introduction had taken place Harry Cold advised that he andColes went to a restaurant on Bead Street in Philadelphia. He was unableto recall specifically the name of the restaurant but thought that it mightbe lew Tbndler's Restaurant. They remained at the restaurant until 2:30a.m. In the course of their conversation Colos made the following propositionto Harry Cold. He advised him that he had some connections with_some individ-uals in a foreign country, not naming the country, and that he had connectionswith an individual in New York City by the name of Abraham Brothmnn andBrothman was turning over to him certain blue prints which had a connectioin the chemical field. Coles told Cold that he had to have a recognizedchemist who would go to New York City, make contact with Abraham Brothman,obtain from him certain blue prints, and then evaluate these blue printson a chemical basis. Cold stated that no financial agreement was entered ";into but that there was an understanding that he would receive see reward
for the work he was to perform.Cold stated that about two weeks after this meeting he telephonedAbraham Brothman in New York City and introduced himself to him over thetelephone as a representative of John Colush or Cclish and made an appointmentto doe to New York City to see Hrothman within a week or so. Within aweek o two after this telephone call and setime in November 1940 BarryGold made his first trip to New York City where he ccntacted Abraham Brothmen. This meeting, according to Cold, took place in the evening in a ' .restaurant in the downtown section of New York City. Cold was unable terecall the name of the restaurant. The two had dinner together and Brothmnnturned over the blue prints to him. 'Cold stated that for the next sir months he hade visits to New YorkCity on the average of every three weeks. All of these trips were made in -_the dentin evening'as Harry Gold stated he had to attend to his Job in thedaytime. He also advised that he returned to Philadelphia on the same eveningthat he came to New York City and that on no occasion did he stay overnight

The last phone cell from Golush orGolish was made in lay 1941. No further word was heard from him, according
t0Gold stated that after hie second or third trip to New York City andthe phone calla from Golueh or Gclieh he felt that there was nothing to thepreposition and he became more or lees disinterested in it. However, in themeantime he and Abraham Brothman had become quite friendly and Abraham Brothmanexhibited an int ereet in Harry Gold's career as a chemist. In this regard,G-old stated that Brethman gave him several odd jobs to perform in his capacityas a chemist and that he paid him for this work. It was through this contact, -according to Harry Gold, that he subsequently became unployed by Abraham Brothmanin February 1946. Gold stated that ever since 1941 Abraham Brothman had beeninterested in having him cane with his organization on a full-time basis,but it was not until February 1946 that he could see his way clear to accept
such employment.Barry Gold was questioned very closely as to any financial arrange-ments that had been entered into between Golush or Gclish and him. He statedthat he did not receive one cent from him and that he had only seen Golushon the one occasion in October 1940. He was then asked who paid his farefor these tripe he made every three weeks for a six months period from Phil-adelphia to New York and return. He stated that he hims =11 etbod the expensesfor the first two trips and that after that and_ after be became friendly with Abraham Brothman, Brothmaa would give not a to bill to sustain the en-
ponses of his trips to New York and return.A signed statement, the original of which is being retained in thisfile, was obtained from Harry Gold in the course of the interview and is set
out as follows:

Smith also tarnished the personnel record of Harry Cold from whichthe following information was botained. Cold was born in Switzerland December 12, 1910 and ie'a naturalized American citizen. Be was first hired by the Fennsylvania Saga: company on January 2, 1929 as an assistant cheniet andremained in that position until August 31, 1950, when he left of his ewaaccord. He was re-hired on April 25, 1952 and was laid eff by the company because of lack of work on December 15, 1952. Daring this time Cold workedas a chemist on the production of carbon dioxide gas. Be was again hired on September 18, 1935 as e laboratory assistant and remained in that position until September 15, 1958, when he again left of his own accord. On July l,1940 he was re-hired as a chemist in the alcohol plant and remained in thisjob until February 1, 1946, when the Pennsylvania Sugar Company sold itsalcohol making equipment and discontinued the operation.hr. Elnith stated that he knew Cold well while he was employed at the rennsylvania Sugar Company. Smith stated that when Gold was first hired he was a conscientious worker. During the course of his employment he attended school and also continued his education during the periods when he was employedby the company. Smith stated that he believes Cold, at least during pit part of the time between his periods of employnnht, was attending college. He stated that Harry Gold is an intelligent, shrewd man, but that his workas a chemist during the latter part of his employment was not completelysatisfactory, as he required a great deal of supervision.Smith stated that Cold and Hoodless became friendly when they workedtogether as young men, and that during the time they both worked in the laboratory at the alcohol plant Cold s knowledge of chemistry and his assist-ance to Hccdless placed Carter Hoodless under some obligation te him. smith stated that he knew nothing of Gold's activities outside the plant and that he never suspected Gold of being connected with any organizations that might
be considered subne ins.It is noted that the personnel file of Harry Gold indicates that hewas given an occumtional deferment from $olective Service Board No. 65, Philadelphia, on ' y 5, 1945, at the request of Pennsylvania Sugar Company.According to personnel records, Cold has also worked for the followingcompanies, dates of employment not given: '1he Hobrook Manufacturing ctI!lp.BI, Jersey City, 14.1., employed for nine months; The lloormeir Dairy 90111191!» ' -

Facts were requested, the attached memorandum to the Department has beendrawn up suggesting certain corrections in accordance with the true
facts.U
It is desired to point out that the last sentence of tlufirst partial paragraph of Page 2 oi the Department's Summary of Factsstates, with reference to Gold's first meeting with Fuchs, that Fuchsexplained the setup of the British group and that the group was vrorkirgon a project which was highly important to the national defense andthat his work was of a very confidential nature. Actually, Gold stated that Fuchs explained the setup of the British group and either stated or {figimplied that he, Fuchs, II working on the separation of isotopes for eventual utilisation of the energy produced by nuclear fission in the 'form oi a weapon.

_1n about the center of the first paragraph on Page S, it isstated that when Gold met Fuchs at the Heineman home Fuchs informedGold that he was stationed at e place called ins Llamas in Hei Mexico,"where a highly secret research project pertaining to the nationaldefense was being carried on. Again in thefirst paragraph of Page 4,it is stated that in the course of the September, 1945, meeting atSanta Fe, Nev Mexico, Fuchs gave Gold a paclost of papers and informedGold that the papers pertained to highly important and confidentialresearch developnents at the two New Mexico defense projects,
referring to Ins Alamos and Alamogordo.It will be noted that in these instances it appears that theDepartment is using a general description of the type of informationbeing furnished by Fuchs to Gold for the apparent purpose of avoidingthe use of the specific information passed. Inasmuch as this appearsto be a desirable objective and the Department has the factual description of the information passed, no comment is being made in tin
attached memorandum to the Department.
