Senate Belect Comittee to Study Governmental Operations The enclosure to serial 16 was specifically excluded by the SSC from its November 7, 1975, request and has not been included in the material being delivered, An enclosure to serial 9 which is described as an article — appearing in the July 5S, 1969, Herald Tribune was apparently = -’ detached from serial 9 and could not be located. Referenced December 8, 1975, memorandum to the ssc ‘noted, inter alia, serial 1 of the Kraft file was not being provided to the SSC in response to its November 7, 1975, request since it had no apparent connection with the Kraft matter. A review of the sealed material to which access has bean granted for purposes of responding to this request, now reveals the relevance of serial 1, A copy of this serial is, therefore, included in the material } being delivered with this memorandum. 1 ~ The Attorney General NOTE: . skeen - The subject of above SSC inquiry, Joseph Kraft, ‘is a well-known newspaper columnist. A review of the Kraft file reveals that the French Security Service, the DST, conducted a microphone surveillance on Kraft's hotel - room for approximately one week during a 1969 visit by Kraft to Paris. Such coverage was effected through the urging of W. C. Sullivan, former FBI Assistant to the Director, who traveled to France at that time, apparently at the direction of deceased FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. Details of the above coverage have appeared in the media apparently as a result of leaks within the administration of former President Nixon. Kraft himself testified in de- tail 5/10/74, regarding this matter before the United States Senate Subcommittee on Administrative Practice and Procedure, the Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights of the Committee on the Judiciary, and the Subcommittee on Surveillance of ‘NOTE CONTINUED; PAGE 3 sexger

We have previously responded to earlier requests of the SSC in the memoranda of 6/20/75, 9/2/75, 10/7/75, and 12/8/75, wherein we advised that no authorization per se could be located for the 1969 electronic surveillance of Kraft during a visit to France and provided the SSC with delivery and access to serials which provided information regarding the Kraft matter. We previously reviewed the sealed portion of the Kraft file under authority of the Attorney General, in connection with our 9/2/75, response to the SSC; however, the unsealed material was resealed following review. By memorandum from Jack Fuller, Special Assistant to the Attorney General to John Mintz, FBI, dated 12/5/75, the Attorney General approved re-entry into the sealed portion o£ the Kraft file to fully comply with the SSC request of 11/7/75. A copy of serial 1, the 11/7/75, SSC request and the 12/5/75, Fuller to Mintz memorandum authorizing entry to the sealed portion of the Kraft file has been attached to the file copy of the enclosed letterhead memorandum. Arrangements have been made for a representative of the Legal Counsel Division to deliver the attached memorandum as well as the materials being provided to the SSC. This note has been classified “Seeret" in order to protect the confidentiality of our relationship with the French Security Service, the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to result in serious damage to national security. —CGhesstfited 3 fn f f SE RET -~3-
