In accordance with a telephone conversation between a representa-
tive of this office and Mr. Harold D. Koffsky of the Department of
Justice, I am transmitting to you herewith a list of individuals and
entities whose activities may be of interest in connection with the
current investigation of the China lobby.
The Treasury Department is at the present time searching its
files with respect to these names. In particular, the income tax
returns, the Foreign Assets Control files, and the census reports
on TFR-300, 500, and 603 are being searched. The purpose of this
transmittal is to allow the Department of Justice to make such
search of the Foreign Funds Control files or any other files in its
possession as may be appropriate under the circumstances. In this
connection we wish to point out that the Foreign Funds Control files
relating to the "Chinese Government United States Dollar Savings
Certificates", and relating to the property censuses are being
searched by this Department and this work need not be duplicated.
