to see T-34 at 3 P. 1'. on February 6, 1950. A physical surveillance was instituteé

S113 LESTER O. GALLA1-IE1, MAURICE W. CORCORJJI. and RICHARD E. BRENNAN. WEBER
proceeded immediately to Penn Station where he boarded a train for Long Beech,
Long Island, his home. He was observed entering his residence at 25 West
Broadway, Long Beach, at 6:05 P. 1'-P, on that date. The surveillance was tem-
porarily discontinued at that point.i
On the morning of February 7, 1950, WEBER, accompanied by his wife
and two children, left his home at 25 Fest Broadway, Long Beach, via auto-
mobile, New York license ND-15-7h. They proceeded to Freeport, Long Island,
whore they looked at homes in Freeport Estates and later at the Birohwood
Homes Section of North Roolwille Centre, New York. WEBER, his wife and child
returned to 25 West Broadway, Long Beach, at l;05 P. H. At h:O5 P. IL, WEBER
left 25 Fest Broadway, walked to the Long Island Railroad Station where he
boarded a train for New York. It is noted that he was carrying a largo suit-
case at the time.
Upon arriving at Penn Station, WEBER ate and then took the 6:10 P. M;
train, Car 321, for Dayton, Ohio. Upon arriving in Penn Station, he was ob-
served to meet a man and have a brief conversation with this man. A surveillanoe
of this individual reflected that he went to 2005 East Eighth Street, Brooklyn,
at 8 P. M. on February 7, 1950. It is to be noted that that address is where
WEBERIS parents are known to live and it would appear that this individual was
a relative of WEBER. -
Confidential Informant T-24adv-ised that he had a long conversation
with WEBER on the afternoon of February 6, 1950, during which WEBER discussed
personal problems with '1-34, WEBER esqalained that his wife is reluctant to
move to Dayton, Ohimandhais reluctant to return to New York for the reason
that he has had clearance difficulties with the Atomic Energy Commission and
fears that he cannot find suitable employment in the New York area. WEBER
stated that he did not care to advise his wife of these difficulties.
Confidential Informant T-Z4 explained that originally, WEBEIUS
clearance was delayed at the time he became involved in the Tedlee Chemical
Compamr case. Later, when his clearance came up for official attention at
the ABC, the official at ILEC in New York and the official at AEC -in Washington
who were handling the case, had personal differences over the manner in which
92TEBER'S case was being handled.

As :1 direct result, after each had accused the other oi mishandling
WEBERIS case, no action was ever taken to clear WEBER, although the Kellex
firm had recoxzmended in WEBER'S favor. Confidential Informant T-24 stated
that he had advised WEBER to remain with the firm in Dayton, Ohio {International
Engineering Corporation! for a couple of years until such time as he had
established himself, after which his clearance might be effected. T-B4
strongly advised WEBER against making any approach at this time to the AEC
officials regarding his clearance.
Confidential Informant T-3i stated that WEBER was obviously upset
regarding this problem. In the course of the discussion, T-24 mentioned the
FUCHS case to WEBER and WEBER stated that he had not known FUCHS or any of
the British Delegation during his employment at Kellex. T-24 stated that
there was no doubt in his mind that WEBER was telling the truth regarding
this since he quickly passed off any discussion of the FUCHS case.
A photograph oi WEBER was obtained from Confidential Infonnant T-- 24

able that f.RTH'UR AD.'J§, Soviet Agent and paramour of VICTORL. STONE was in
touch with GRUNDFEST at that time. It is also known in EEK ADALTS had
GRU1921DFEST'S telephone number in Rumson, New Jersey, listed in his personal
address book.
» It is noted that GRUN'DFEST was employed at the Glimsotic Research
Section of Fort lbnmouth Signal Laboratory until September 23, 191411.. It was
reported that because of GRUNDFESI"S Communist affiliations and Russian con-
tacts that the Climactic Research Section was completely dissolved so that
GRUNDFEST might be removed from a vital area. It is also noted that CRUNDFEST
had looked around for other employment during the fall of l9hh, and on
January 2, 19!-15, started work at the Guyot Laboratory, Princeton University,
Princeton, New Jersey. GRUNDFES'I"S work there was on a confidential contract
for the Office of Scientific Research and Development. Later, it was learned
that steps had been taken to have the OBRD contract at Princeton terminated
at the end of February, 19145, by which action the MED hoped that C¬{UllDFEST
would be forced to leave the campus and, therefore, would not be near the work
of interest to the OS? project. GRUNDFESWS worlcwas to study the effect of
tissue on high velocity projectiles.
In June, 19115, it was re ably reported that GHUNDFEST had accessto the Soviet diplomatic pouch. I :4!
According to another informant, GRUNUHST stated at a National
Executive Committee meeting of the American Association of Scientific Workers
that e friend of his, one IGi1;c_;'92Z'LOTCZ'JSI{Y, Polish diplomat, was a good
friend of his, and that hé, GRLTNDFEST, could arrange for the use of the
diplomatic pouch in the event any scientist desired to send infornmtion from
the United States without detection of the F.B. I. or other United States
Governznent agencies.
Surveillance of GR IDFEST revealed the following information of
possible significance :
On December lb, 9 GRUNDFEST left Rumson, New Jersey, and went
to the home of Major B, ,. Washington, D. C. It is noted that on
October 8, 191411, ZELMA BA LLER, wife of Major B, F, MIILER, was in con.

with the Atomic Energy Project of the Office of, Scientific Research and
Development.
GROSSE presently resides at 1456 Glynwynne Avenue, Heverford,
Pennsylvania.
The S,,n Francisco files reflected an article in'Russie.n Life", e.
ffhitc Russian newspaper, dated October 7, 19148, which referred to an article
apparently in the New York "Times", dated September 26, 19118, with regard to
GROSSE. The writer of this "Russian Life" erticle;{'BELCHE192IKO, advised he
had know-"m GROSSE as a small boy when LRISTID AGEQSSE, together with his younger
brother, LEV, mere attending element'1f*_;"s":ShZ>ol in Hangkm-1, Chine. BF-LCH'EI92IKOstated that LE;?tGROSSE, in 191,8, was living in Kazan, U.S.S.EZ., whore he was

GROSSE wrote for the North Chna "Daily News" in Shanghai, Wéekly reviews in
the life of Russian citizens. BELCHENKO stated that the White Russians should
be proud of ASTRID GRQ§SEhni.should blush for LEV GROSSE,
Further, the San Francisco Office advised AEC files contain a report
entitled, "The Theory of Isotope Separation as Applied to Large Scale Production
of Y23S", written by KABLQCUHEN, which report indicates that GROSSE did con-
siderable work in the field of diffusion but was transferred later to the
heavy water project. -
The New York files reflect that GROSSE was on the payroll of the
Office of Scientific Research and Development, Columbia University, from
January l, l9hl, to June 30, 19b2, as a consultant. On the latter date,
GROSSE went with the Her Production Board, Whshington, D. C. In October,
l9h3, it is reflected in the Columbia University records that GROSSE was
connected with the Catalytic Development Corporntion,3bdT°Y Laboratories;
Marcus Hook, Pennsylvania.
Confidential Informant T-19, of unknown reliability! advised that
he had known CROSSE since about 1939 and that GROSSE had worked for e period
at the Radiation Laboratory at Columbia University for a time without pay
because of his interest in chemical research. TMI9 stated that subsequently,
in about l9hl, CROSSE was placed on the payroll. Confidential Informant T-19
stated that he believed GROSSE to be of fine character, a loyal Lmericen
citizen and an outstanding physicist.
Confidential Informant T-19 stated that GROSSE was outwardly
antagonistic to the Communist regime and to Communism in general and had
frequently expressed himself vigorously in this respect to the extent that
during the war he had antagonized various individuals at Columbia who
believed that he was a Fescist in his theories. T-l9 was certain that GROSSE
was not at all sympathetic to Fascism or Communism, but that due to his German
name and a feeling against foreigners at Columbia during the nor, GROSSE was
not invited by UHEY to continue his work.
Confidential Informant T-20, of known reliability; advised that he
was acquainted with GROSSE as a result of his professional work and recommended
GROSSE without qualification, stating that to his knowledge, GROSSE had no
foreign sympathies and was obviously c loyal American. .

ARNOLD DAVID HACKEL -_i_*1-wn_-In»-¢~
A check of the theses written at City College of New York by SA
JALES F. DONAHOE, revealed that one GLORIA!K§J'H wrote a thesis entitled,
"The Thermal Diffusion of Gases", in the spring of 19146. No thesis was
required by City College for undergraduate students.
The City College records reflected that GLORIA ASCH received a
Bachelor oi Chemistry degree in 191:6, having entered January 29, l9lL3. Her
address was given as 2705 Bainbridge Avenue, Bronx, New York. She w as born
October 21, 1925 in Brooklyn of English and Hungarian descent.
The marriage records of New York reflected that GLORIA ASCH
married ARNOLD D-R-IID HIXCKEE on June 27, 19148. !-IACKEIJS occupation was then
listed as an accountant and ventilating engineer. ASCH stated she was
employed as a "technical writer".

As has been stated previously, Co idential Informant '1-Qgdvisedwthat inE3ecember, l9bJ4, the Unknown Subject vya, "Goose", etc, had selectedthe above title as a subject for his work; this connection, Confidential .Informant T-2L1, oi known reliability, has ised um such a title appears
reasonable and logical to him. .T-2h stated that an analysis of the title
makes it appear if such a work w s ever written, and there is no oncefrom Confidential Informant T-3 Eat the work was ever 'V11itb6;i:l obably
would have been done by someone connected with the thermal di i S-50!
project which was operated at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, from about July, 19}-11¢,
until the spring or early summer of 1916. The title indicates to Confidential
Informant T-211, that the writer would have had a rather intimate and over-all -
knowledge of the production problems which vere encountered in the S-50 project.g, k..;.~a,||;5;§ u
In this connection, Confidential Informant T-2h stated that it would
be his conjecture that someone in :1 supervisory capacity for the Ferguson

Company which coman contracted and operated the S-S0 project, or someone
connected with the MED who had officers stationed at the S-50 project, or some-
one connected with the Navy, which furnished the scientific advisory personnel,
would have written such an article or thesis.
It was Confidential Informant T-2h's speculation that anyone else
connected with the project would not have had enough knowledge to write an
article which would have had a conformance with the title. T-2h considered
it likely that the author was an engineer or possibly a scientist, but
definitely someone who was intimately acquainted with the production and
operation problems involved. Also, T-2h stated that if the article was
written prior to the declassification of the S-50 project or prior to the
spring of 19b5, it would be indexed in the AEC library in either Ghshington
or New York. Otherwise, the article would not be indexed.
In connection with the operation of the S-50 progeet, the follow-
ing sumery of its history is set forth: ~
- The primary purpose of the S-SO project was to supply feed with
the above-normal concentration of Uranium-235 to the Electromngnetic Y-12!
Project until such time as the Gaseous Diffusion K-25! Project_could get
into production. The project was concerned with increasing the concentration
of Uranium23S from the naturally occurring 0.71 per cent to 0.85 per cent;
a peak production.nas reached in the month of June, l9b5. Progress by the
Naval Research Laboratory in developing the liquid thermal diffusion process
was followed by the Office of Scientific Research and Development, and the
process was selected in June, l9hh, when its advantages became apparent.
. Subsequent to June, 19b1, under the supervision of P. H. ABELSON
of the Naval Research Laboratory, a high pressure steam pilot plant was con-
structed at the Philadelphia Naval Yard. By June, l9hh, this unit was nearly
complete and operating technique had been planned to an advanced degree.
During the operation of the S50 plant, intensive process improve-
ment studies were carried on by the operating contractor, the Ferclcve
Corporation. The operation of the Philadelphia Pilot Plant was also continued
during this period and for some time after the'shutdown of the 5~SO plant. ~
It was necessary to bring e new contractor into the Manhattan District for
the S-S0 contract job, and the H. K. Ferguson Company was selected as the

original contractor as this comany pas expected to finish the S-50 Prvjet in
the least smout of time. The H. K. Ferguson Company knew the design but
lacked construction forces and was given an arehitectengineer contract. The
J. A. Jones Construction Company, Inc., was chosen as the construction con-
tractor. Personnel training began at the Philadelphia Pilot Plant in August,
l9hh, but*'as cut short on September 2, l9hh, by a disastrous explosion which
damaged the pilot plant insta1letions.=
Thereafter, all of the Fercleve trainees and fifteen Naval Research
Laboratory personnel proceeded to the S-SO site where preliminary conditioning
of the equipment was begun September 15, l9hh. On September h, 19b5, 0TdeP5
were issued to terminate all operations at S-50 and place the plant in a
standby condition. On February 15, 19h6, the last employment was terminated
and the entire area was transferred to the custody of the K-25 operations
officer.
Regarding the personnel, Dr. IL-8, AHLSON of the Naval Research
Laboratory perfected the Naval thermal diffusion method and with the aid of
fifteen of his men, including Dr. NLTHANARGSEN, University of North Carolina,
and Dr,'ROSS§GBNN, who assisted greatly tnxinitial S-SO operations, _
Col LQICHOLS was District Engineer and Contracting Officer.
Lt. Col. MARK C, FOX was assigned to the 5-50 area as Unit Chief from June 25,l9hh to hhrch 31, 19b5, when he was succeeded by Major THOMAS J;*EVLNS.
U; H. THQKPSONwns Chief En ineer for the H, K, Ferguson Company and C. W;¥H5BE£was Project manager. R. SitIEIE was Production Superintendent and Dr.B.F.
DODGE nos Director of the T chnical Division. The Ferguson Company payroll
reached s peak of 1,900 construction workers in September, l9hh, whle the
Fercleve Corporation payroll reached e peak of 1,600 operating people in
April, 19hS. Technical reports resulting from the S-50 project have been
incorporeted in the AEC report files.

University reflect that CONEN was admitted in September, 1929 and
achelor of Arts Degree in February, 1933. He received a Master of
in iebruary, 1935 and a Doctor of Philosohy Degree in January,
1937. He majored in chemistry.
Confidential Informant TL32, of known reliability, advised that
COHEN was employed in the SAM Laboratories, New York City from July 1, 1940 to
April 29, 1944. He had first served as a contractor with O. S. A. D. and later
with the Manhattan Engineers.
In May, 1944, COHEN became employed by the Standard Oil Ievelop-
ment Company, Bayonne, New Jersey and is presently employed by H. K. Ferguson
Company in New York City.
Confidential Informant T-33, of known reliability,
advised . T the New York Office, on the morning oi'february 9, 1950,um one s'.mrea§{aevnsmT , a scientist at the Brookhaven National Laboratory who
is also acting as a consultant for CIA in Washington, D. 0., had advised him
that he is a friend of Dr. COHEN, presently a Technical Director of H. K.
Ferguson Company, New York City. GOUDSMIT told Confidential Informant T>33
that COHEN does some work at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. Confidential
Informant T-33 stated that cine: had told oounsan , after the publicity con-
cerning FUCHS case, that he had known FUCHS and that he had been in contact
with FUCHS when the latter was in this country in 1947. In this connection,
COHEN related the following incident:
COHEN stated that during the time FUCHS was in this country in
1947, FUCHS had borrowed a hat from one of his, FUCHS', acquaintances in New
York, and sometime
FUCHS attempted to
ful in that, FUCHS
acquaintance at anthereafter left the hat in a restaurant. COHEN claimed that
have his acquaintance pick up the hat, but being not success-
requested COHEN to obtain the hat and deliver it to FUCHS
address on West lllth Street, New York City, which COHEN did.
SA Robert M. Kane and the writer interviewed SnMUEL GOUDSNIT
at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, Camp Upton, New York on February 9, 1950,
at which time GOUDShIT' related the following facts: '
GOUDSMIT had met COHEN on February L, 1950 at a physics meeting
at Newark, New Jersey. COHEN related to him a rather curious episode which
occurred between him and FUCHS in 1947. GJCDSMITH understood that COHN had
first received a telephone call from FUCHS, who was then in the United States

Iv
1w es-15136 SF
for a Declassificag1°n- Conference. COHHN invited FUCHS to his home but FUCHS
declined, and a luncheon or dinner date was made. During the meal, according
to GIUDSYIT , no business:mas discussed which, according to GOUDSMIT , sur
prised COHEN. Sometime after the meal, FUCHS realized that he left his hat at
the restaurant. He called CFHEN, explaining that he had borrowed the hat from
a friend, with whom.he was staying, and asked that COHEN return the hat, which
COHEN later did. COHEN told G3UDSIT* that the house to which he returned the
hat was on West lllth Street, New York City, which he might be able to locate.
On the evening of February 9, 1950, SA Robert N. Kane an the
writer intcrviewed ggiJL§iJiJ£E_QHEN at his home at 5C1 nest 121st Street,
New York City, at which time he related the following facts:
COHEN explained that he regarded himself as FUCHS counterpart
in the United States Ltmic hnergy setup, since COHEN"was head of the iheoretical
Phsics Division, which actually was FUCHS' job for the English. As such, CDHEN
stated that he had frequent contact with FUCHS at the SAM Laboratories, Columbia
University, New York City, up to the time that CCHN left there in May, 1944.
CGHEN acknowledged that he probably knew FUCHS better than any of the American
scientists employed on the Atomic energy Project in New York City at that time.
However, he stated that his contact was limited to business and that he recalls,
now, only one social contact with FUCHS. He stated that at the time he, CQHN,
left the Sdh Laboratories, a party was given him, which FUCHS attended.
COHEN stated that he did not know where FUCkB had lived in New
York. However, he was aware that FUCH had come to Los Alamos, California after
leaving New York and that he had one contact with FUCHS at Los nlamos. He said
that in January, 19b6, while employed-by the Standard Oil evelopment Compan,
he was dispatched to the Los Alamos site in order to obtain the services of a
physicist from the pool of Los Alamoe physicists which was then breaking up.
While there, COHEN said he saw FUCHS, who appeared very friendly to him and
offered COHEN the use of his automobile. COHEN borrowed the automobile from
FUCHS and took a 400 or 500 mile trip into Colorado and New Mexico. He was
told by FUCHS, at that time, that FUCHS would be leaving for England in a short
time, but COHEN did not know the actual date on which FUCHS left New York City.
Thereafter, COHN said that he had no contact with FUCHS until
sometime in 1947 when the Declassification Conference was held in Chicago,
Illinois.consn was informed by Dr. WILI.u.R.i1.lBBl' oi the Atomic Energy e
Commission that FUCHS probably would be in cont t with him since there was one
document sechcduled for declassification which LISSY wanted COHEN to discuss
with FUCHS and make his recommendations regarding it to LIBBY.

COHEN claims he recei ed a/telephone call from a woman unknown
to him who exp1ained,that she was a friend of FUCHS and that FUCHS was staying
at either the Henry Hudson Hotel or the Park central Hotel and wanted to see
COHEN. COHEN then called FUCPS and invited him to his-home; which invitation
FUCHS declined. They then made a dinner date at a restaurant chosen by COHSN.
COHEN thinks it was a French restaurant on East 55th Street, New York City.
"e stated that they had dinner at the restaurant, during which they discussed
the declassification of the document and COHEN recomended that it be declassi-
fied while FUCHS opposed it. -
CDHEN said that sometime after leaving the restaurant, either
while they were both together or sometime the next day, FUCHS realized that he
had left a hat at the restaurant which belonged to the person with whom he was
staying. FUCHS asked CFHEN to pick up the hat and return it since he, FUCHS,
was leaving town. COHEN claims that he informed FUCYS that he regarded this
request extraordinary, but in view of the favor that FUCHS had done COHEN at
Los Alamos, California, he finally agreed to call the people and tell them where
they could obtain the hat. COHEN then called the restaurant to make sure that
the hat was still there. he than called a number furnished by FUCHS and informec
the woman to whom he had previousl; spoken that the hat was there and asked that
she obtain it. he recalls that the woman said that she was unfamiliar with New
York and that she was busy getting ready to leave New York and asked that CJHN
obtain the hat for her. COHEN said that he left town that day but a few days
later obtained the hat and returned it to an address on "est lllth Street, New
York City.
It was COHEN!s recollection that FUCHS contact was a DrJ§¬3CPERor a Dr2*SKINNER who was also attached to the British Delegation and who was they
in the United States for the Ueclassification Conference. This contact was then
staying with his wife and her father at the West lllth etreet address. Actuall;a Dr. T. H. ?7tSKINN?R of the British Uelcgation attended the heclassification
Conference in hicago, Illinois!.
CORN said that when he brought the hat around to the West lllth
Street address, he was invited in for a few moments, during which visit he met
a woman,who was apparently SKINNER's wife,and her father, whom he described as
bcine in his fifties, well dressed, and of European extraction. Be
thc woman as speaking with a British accent and being in her middle
thirties. He recalled that the bell at the apartment house had the
COPER or SKINNEH, as well as the name of the father-in-law. COHEN

block, nearthe middle, consu entered the/address 536 West lllth Street. It
should be noted that COHEN, while visiting these other apartment houses, appeared
to be casually looking over~the names on the bells, but when he entered 536 West

which apartment house there appeared another SKINNER.
Regarding FUCHS, COHEN commented that he was astounded by FUCHS
recent arrest and stated that he had regarded FUCHas a brilliant scientist, but
personally was a shy, quiet indi"idual who had very little to say on any given
topic and who never expressed himself on politics.

time that FUCHS was here. 1
COHEN was specifically asked whether he had corresponded with
FUCHS between the time FUCHS left the United States in 1946 and the meeting in
l947. He answered by saying that the Agents should not have the idea that FUCHS
would want to recruit him since he felt that FUCHS knew more about atomic energy
problems than he, COHEN, did at any time.
although heCOHEN appeared cooperative and willing to furnish information,
did not volunteer anything without being specifically asked for it.
CUHEN stated that he was leaving New York for Los Alamos, California on February
10, 1950 for a ten day business trip.
2 An oznmnation .of the diary of Dr. COHEN on February 10,
1950. The first entry in which FUUno' name was mentioned was December 14, 1943,
which states that COHEN feigned an illness to miss a lecture by FUCHS. It was
explained that he had already covered the ground with FUCHS, and discussion of
it would have been repetition.
FUCHS was next nrntionsd on Deccmbcr 22, l9L3 in a meeting at

stone-st-r:.LB.:cH of Union Carbide and Carbon Chemical c6?£pi5Hy', and 2;. H. AKEI_i_S_,PFEILS, KURTIS, and &. B§<BROWN of the British Delegation and Kellex employees
had a technical mceting. The name of FUCHS is not noted in COHEN's diary, but
COHEN believes he was present.
On January 7, ll and March 31, 1944, FUCHS met with COHEN and
other Kellex employees in what was termed "control meetings". COHEN does not
recill others present but relates that FUCHS dominated the discussions because
of his greater experience with gaseous diffusion.
On March ll, 1944, FUCHS met with COHEN and PEIEHLS in a technical
discussion. '
No other meetings with FUCHS were noted, but COHEN advised that
his diary was incomplete at times and was not maintained after Mny, 1944. He
recalls that he met with FUCHS numerous other tiums but is now unable to furnish
the dates.
COHEN also advised that his wife reminded him on February 9, 1950
that FUCHS had visited his home socially in the summer of 1944 and that COHN
"dominated that discussion". COHEN does not recall the subject matter of the
discussion but believes it must have been on gaseous diffusion.
Confidential Informant T-24 has stated.that he is as positive-as
he can be that KARL PALEI COHN did not write the above captioned article on
thermal diffusion. The informant explained that C?HEN'is a high minded theo-
retical physicist who, in the first plsce, would not have an intimate knowledge
of the production problems encountered and who was concerned only with the
P

m as-ism S-E
theoretical physics approach to the proyect. Confidential Informant T-24 stated
that COHEN is the type ofindividual who {apparently has done considerable read-
ing on the subject of communism and Marxism in order to be better informed but
that his attitude is anything but pro-Communist, and he has expressed himself
against all anti~American doctrines, including Communism.
SA Ralph F. Miller made inquiry at 536'est lllth Street, New York
City and ascertained that apartment 65 is owned by a Mrs. RUBffSKiNNER, a wealth
woman who lives in Connecticut or upstate New York. It was ascertained that she
has rented out this apartment to various rcomers for the past six years and that
a NrQ@HBLSE, her stepfather, who prcsently'resides there, would have information
on the attendance of persons who had occupied the apartment.
SAS Robert M. Kine and Joseph C. Walsh contacted DANlE§fHLSE,
age eighty, who is presently in St. Luke's Hospital in New York City. HULSE
advised that he is the stepfather of Mrs. RUBY SKINNER, Yonkers, New York, the
listed tenant of Apartment 65, 536 West lllth street, New York City. HULSE
stated that he had resided in this apartment since 1946. He said that in 1947,
he shared the apartnent with THOMAS ETTBURNS, a M. and Mrs. HERSCH, and one
CHARL§§rhEED and his brother.
HULSE stated that BURNS was a retired Consolidated Edison employee
while HIRSCH was in the fur business. He stated that he could not recall REED's
occupation. HULSE positively stated that no tenants answering the description
of the individual seen by KhBlcEiLEY,COHEN had ever occupied the;apartnent since
1946. Moreover, he could recall no other tenants in the building of English
descent who had occupied the apartment. - -
It would appear from the above that COHEN has selected the wrong
apartment house, and further inquiry will be considered of COHEN regarding this
matter,

on June 15, 1937 to Nn9MI¥ETT;and presently resides at 41-08 - 42nd Street,
Sunnyside, Long IslnnjI'Y5rk. He graduated from Columbia University in ,
1933 with a Degree of Chemical engineer. During the period from 1938 to 1942,
BROTHHAN conducted a company known as the Republic Chemical Machinery Company
which performed designing work on chemical machines. This company held patents
on several machines which were manufactured by the Hendrick Manufacturing
Company of Carbondale, Pennsylvania.
In June, 1942, BROTHMAN severed his connection with Republic
Chemical Machinery Company and with Hendrick Manufacturing Company and became
associated with HENRXTGCEWYNNE in the Chemugy Design Corporation, L20 Lexington
Avenue, New York City. While at the Chemurgy Design Corporation, BROTHMAN worked
for the Tbdlee Chemical Corporation and the Regal Chemical Company. In the
course of his work with these two latter firms, BRDTHMZN developed an automatic
machine for filling aerosol bombs in the field and a valve for aerosol dispensers
and also developed a process for making DDT. Because of contract difficulties
in this organization, BROTHMAN broke his connection with Chemurgy Design
corporation in the summer of 1944.

EF.OTHMz=N's firm is presently engaged in developing work for firms
in the United States and certain foreign countries, including China.
According to Confidential lnformant T-.-'7, BR.OTi-11-1;.N's firm is listen
as "experienced chemical engineers".
BROTHIMN first came to the attention of the New York Office as a
result of allegations made by Confidential Informant GREGORY who stated that in
about May, 1940, ._I_.Q§QB____Q_O1.,Q5_, deceased Soviet Agent, had introduced the informant
to BRUTI-IMAM. The informant stated that from the early summer of 1940 until the
fall of 1940, GHEGZM-cl had met BHOTPB-LN about ten times in New York City in order
to obtain bluepi"ihTs'irom him. On other occasions, the informant was aware that
BRO'Ii-1M£.N was contacted by GOLOS. The meetings between BROIHM.'.N and GREGORY fre-
quently took place in front of the Mosler Safe Company, 32nd Street and Fifth
;.venue, New York City.
Following the meeting, GREGORY and BROTI-lM;.N would have dinner to-
gether, and during the course of the dinner, BROTFMAN would turn over certain
blueprints to GREGORY. The informant stated that on several occasions, the
prints which BROTI-MZN had given her were copies which he had made from the
originals. However, on some occasions, BROTHMLN gave the informant originals
which the informant had to have copied and subsequently returned the originals
to BRJTH*P'..N. The informant stated that sometime during the course of these
meetings, it was learned from either BROTEELKN or GOLOS that the blueprints were
of commercial kettles or commercial vats.
- Sometime during the fall of 1940, according to the informant,
GOLOS told the informant that he was becoming disgusted with his dealings with
BH'3'1!~IN.';N and stated that he was going to turn BROTI-NAN over to someone else.
The informant never learned to whom GOLQS directed BRJ'I'I-IMAN. However, BH.O'I'HMAN,
upon interview in May, 191.7, stated that he was contacted by H..iBl' GOLD, who had
been sent to him by GDLOS, GOLD then began picking up prints until the early
part of 1942. BROTHMAN has stated that although GOLD did not pick up any prints
subsequent to 19b2, he would stay in contact with him and that GOLD was hired by
BROI'dMi.N in 1942 as a chemist and may still be so employed.
BRO'1Hlv'-ix!! testified before a Special rand Jury in the Southern
District of New York on July 22, 1947 where he stated that he first met GOLDS

me 1136 I H P9-E£¬TT 92in the early part of 191.0, at whx time/GDLOS informed him that he was con-
nected with the Soviet Government Purchasing Commission and was in a position
to obtain contracts for BEGTHMAN. BROTHMAN stated that he had invented a piece
of machinery at about thistime and that this machinery was to be used in
chemical processes. GOLOS wanted copies of the prints of this invention and
BROTH}L.N turned them over to him. BROT1-D-LN then stated, before the Gr:-no Jury,
that shortly after that, GOLOS came to see him -about every week to find out if
there was anything new in his invention or any new equipment, improvements or
applications.
About six months later, or' in the summer of 1940, BHOT1~I192»N stated
that GOLOS had introduced him to Confidential Informant GREGORY, whose photo-»
graph he identified, and after which Gh.E72=ORY contacted BROTHM.-.N. BROT1-IMLN state:
that ho continued to contact GREGORY until about the Spring of 1941. BROTHMAN's
explanation for meeting GhEGOhY on the street was that he was busy during the
day at his office and did not like to be disturbed and that it was more conveniex
for him to meet GHEGORY :i.n the above manner.
A physical surveillance of BruOTI-MEN was begun on February 16,
191.5 and continued through February 21., I945. The surveillance revealed no
significant /contacts by storm-um.

Confidential Informant TL35, of unknown reliability, advised SA
Joseph C. Walsh on February 16, 1950 that one Dr. JOSEPH WINTERNIQZ, a Czecho-
slovakian citizen, operated in the latter twenties I5 Berlin, Germany for the
Russians in the recruitment of scientists and engineers for Soviet espionage.
WINTERNITZ was a physicist and professionally a uainted with scientific groups.He wrote many articles under the pen name=JOSEP§?LENZ. According to Confidential
Informant T-35, he was also a member of the Communist Party, Central Comittee
in Germany. RINTERNITZ fled from Hitler to Czechoslovakia in the early thirties,
and when Hitler entered Czechoslovakia, WINTERNITZ, as a Czechoslovakian citizen,
was able to secure a visa to England where he remained throughout World War II.
The informant is of the belief that WINIERNITZ probably recruited
FUCHS into Soviet espionage service in England.
Confidential Informant TL35 also related that FUCHS graduated
from the University of Kiel, Kiel, Germany and that he believes a QQLUHANS.,4§6n§E§§lQ, a professor at the University of Kiel.who is now at the University
of Colorado, may have information regarding FUCHS.
