Re San Francisco airtel to Bureau dated 1/24/80.

continued on 1/24/66 for security reasons involving local

Current inquiry noreele that,

Thile the physinal

contact with sources, the security risk remains.

While it is realized these sources furnished

valuable information to the Federal Government, it ie not

believed the value justifies the risk involved.

It is not

Numerous potential security informants have been

developed due to the type of information which this source

the tent t

has furnished in san Francisco.

Uponreceipt of the translations of the Chinese material

which is Iorwarded to the bureau, as well as an evacuation nade

of the English language material, which is photostated, San

Francisco furnishes to the other field divisions only that

material which can be construed as having intelligence value.

In manyinstances, San Francisco has knowledge concerning the

identities of security subjects residing within other field

divisions and furnishes pertinent rata concerning these individuais

Numerous requests are made by certain Chinese scientists

to them certain technical books and publications in tha

scientific field which information is ulso furnished to other

field divisions.

In the case of (Caucasians) traveling throughout Red

China, who may possibly be U.s. citizens, this data is also

furnished to other offices.

At this time, this source as a general rule has access:

to all mail emanating Irom fong Kong, B.C.C. and Communist Crina

destined for the U.s; however, on certain cocasions, this sourse,

due to the routing of mail by

the Post office from the airpori,

sometimes misses certain mail bags.

For the Bureau's information, san Francisco processes

approximately 13,500 first class letters a day not including

third class publications. In this connection, however, it is

noted that the processing must be done in a very limited vine,

two hours maxinum.

furthermore, in view of the existing

limitations, the quantity of material chosen for complete

translation

is necessarily limited to no more than 50 per day:

some of which as further time pernts for a closer scruting, is

later disrearded and no further action taken, other than

returning the material to the source.

This reply has the following meaning:

"A" has no present meaning. All numbers are now preceeded by

"A" only to allow for future additional classifications. None are

presently contemplated.

- "57COS'is the date of intercept, namely: "57" is the year. "C"

indicates the month. The code key for months is set out as Enclosure 1.

"05" is the day of the month. Thus, "57C05" is 5 March 1957.

The group "C3325" is our own internal filing number.

The "Name In" eatry identifies the correspondent inside the USSR.)

The asterisk in "Ref" columa indicates that KROVAN)sent the letter.

The entry in "Loc"(ation) column indicates the area or city inside /

the soviet Union from which the letter was mailed. In this case it was

mailed from the western section of Ukrainian SSR! The code key

used for this column is set out in Enclosure 2. This code key is to

be used for all items prior to 1 January 1958, on which date a 4-place

code was instituted in order to designate more precisely the localities

within the USSR.

A copy of this new code is enclosed as Enclosure 3.

The "Name Out" entry identifies the correspondent outside the

(USSR!

In both the "Name In"' and "Name Out" columns, the last or

family name is listed first.

The absence of an asterisk in the "Ref"' column after EVOSWA

indicates that she is the recipient of the letter.

The entry in the second "Loc"(ation) column indicates the state of

the U.S. (in this case, New Jersey) to which the letter was addressed.

The code key used for this column is set out in Enclosure 4. You

will note that some 3-digit entries indicate large cities within a state,

thus KO indicates New York State and KOA indicates New York City.

For your convenience an alphabetical list of the states with their code

The difference in this listing from that previously illustrated is as follows:

"U' is our internal identifying designator. The first date is the date

of the intercept. The second date is the date of the communication

inside the letter. The "X"' under the "Ban" column indicates the letter

upon request, identifying the HUNTER report-number and referencing

both A57D23U and 57D18 numbers, the outer envelopes and their con

In order to insure most efficient servicing of your request,

it is suggested that you submit trace requests as follows: List the

last name first with any known first and given sames or initials, and

address including state, city and street, if knowa. If an exact address

is not known, a probable state or section will be helpful but is not

required. The same would apply to theUSSR) The above should be

listed on duplicate 3 x 5 cards. If only a phonetic name is known,

various combinations of spellings would be appreciated, together

with any other data such as probable address or area.

Where an

address is known and there are individuals, other than the subject,

at this address to whom the questioned communication might be

addressed, their names should also be given. For record purposes

turn number each card as

is for a one-time check or whether the name should be put on the

Watch List. If the latter, please indicate the duration of the Watch

List, i.e. 30, 60, 90 days, or "until cancelled". If a Watch List is

requested, you should also indicate the treatment desired when a

possible" hit is made, i. e. photograph outside only; photograph

outside and contents; photograph outside, contents, and examine for

S/W or microdots. Specifically indicate any Watch List item which

should not be opened. In this connection you may also desire to give !

us a white list of correspondents of interest to you whoare not Watch

List subjects but whose mail should not be opened in the course of

our normal openings for spot-checking for operational or intelligence

information. In some instances you may desire to indicate that you

are to be informed immediately when a hit is made and prior to the

receipt of the letter by the addressee.

Il. It is possible to make a special machine run of the names

of all correspondents either addressor, addressee, or both, from

any specific area in the (USSR) to the United States or to any specific

state or city in the U,S., or vice versa. There are various other
