Summary of Correspondence A translation of the one letter involved which was dated 19 January 1962 and mailed from the Hotel FENIX in Madrid is given below. We were unable to decipher a few words as indicated. "Dear Frau HARTENbiEIN: To begin, best wishes. I arrived here on Friday evening (12.1). The day before I. had an interesting visit with friends. Route National in the direction of Troyes, circa 19 km. to Champeaux (Seine-Marne). The secu- rity measures are not very strict. Stricter outside the 4 ha. estate. One drives through the town (Guiges) in the direction of Melun, 100 200 meters outside the town is a farm road to the left leading to the manor house which is in a woods. One first passes a radio vehicle with a police official who checks identity cards or passports against a permanent list or a 24-hour laissez-passer list issued by the Minister of Justice. The Justice Minister must inform the Algerian Minister. Permission for the day (not the night). Present were: LAGHZAOUSI - former police chief (for- mer collaborator of the Deuxieme Bureau, now head of the Officers Miri- f ice Approx. rendition; in original is followed by question mark/ des Phosphetes /approx. rendition/, lives—always at the Hotel Crillon, Paris, and CHERK I AOUI, brother-in-law of HASSAN, Ambassador of Morocco, Paris, PDI. In addition, but separately Ben YAYA, about in his early thirties, who went from Switzerland to Frankfurt. The Moroccans are supposed to persuade the five (BB /presumably Ben BELLA/ and friends) in Champeaux to agree to a compromise. BE and companions are verydistrustful of the Mor- occans despite their being kissing cousins /trotz Bruderkuessen/. Ben UHEDDAs mission, via Ben YAYA: nothing will be done without the "FIVE"; that is B. Uh. wants backstopping with BB. After the FLN has accomplished nothing in five years (exactly like the French), it is today also (like Paris) incapable of peace as it is incapable of continuing the war and victory.
