UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE

OFFICE OF THE EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT TO THE POSTMASTER GENERAL,

Washington, D.C.

Hon. SAM J. ERVIN, JR., Chairman, Subcommittee on Separation of Powers, Committee on the Judiciary, U.S. Senate, Washington, D.C.

DEAR MR. CHAIRMAN: This is in reply to the request made in your letter of March 30, 1972.

Postal arrangements with other countries are made for the purpose of developing and improving communications between this Nation and the other Nations of the world, of furthering international collaboration in the cultural, social and economic fields, and of facilitating the reciprocal exchange of mail items by establishing rules and rates for their conveyance. The United States is a party to multilateral agreements concluded under the auspices of the Universal Postal Union and of the Postal Union of the Americas and Spain, and to bilateral agreements. The multilateral agreements are concerned with the constitutions and the general regulations of the unions, and with the conventions and their regulations of execution governing letter post and, only recently, money orders in the Universal Postal Union, letter post, parcel post and money orders in the Postal Unions of the Americas and Spain. The bilateral agreements deal primarily with parcel post and money orders. The bilateral agreement with the United Nations is for the establishment of a United Nations Post Office Station.

International postal arrangements are Executive Agreements authorized by act of Congress (39 U.S.C. §§407 (a), 408). They are transmitted to the Secretary of State for publication by the public printer pursuant to 39 U.S.C. $407 (b), and they are to be published in the compilation entitled "United States Treaties and Other International Agreements" in accordance with 1 U.S.C. 112a.

Prior to the revision of title 39 of the United States Code pursuant to the Postal Reorganization Act of 1970, the applicable statutory provisions during the 25 year period after 1945 had been 39 U.S.C. §§505, 506 since 1960, and 5 U.S.C. §§372, 373 and 39 U.S.C. §712 before 1960.

The list of agreements with foreign postal administrations entered into by our postal administrations since World War II is attached.

Sincerely,

CHARLES H. FRITZEL, Congressional Liaison Officer.

DEAR SENATOR ERVIN: Reference is made to your letter of inquiry, dated March 30, 1972, regarding executive agreements with foreign states since World War II.

The United States Secret Service has not entered into or participated in executive agreements with any foreign state since World War II.

Sincerely yours,

JAMES J. ROWLEY.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION,
Washington, D.C., April 5, 1972.

Hon. SAM J. ERVIN, JR.,

Chairman, Subcommittee on Separation of Powers, Committee on the Judiciary, U.S. Senate, Washington, D.C.

DEAR SENATOR ERVIN: This will respond to your request of March 30, 1972, for a list of all executive agreements, since World War II, in which the Securities and Exchange Commission has participated, along with the purpose of and authority for the agreements.

On giving your request careful consideration, we are convinced that there have been no such executive agreements in which the Commission has participated.

Notwithstanding the above, we note for your information that, as a result of recommendations of this Commission which participated in the negotiations, a Supplemental Extradition Convention between the United Staes and Canada covering criminal offenses arising under the federal securities laws was signed by both governments on October 26, 1951, and went into effect on July 11, 1952. This treaty was submitted as Executive G to the United States Senate which, after approval by two-thirds of the members present, advised and consented to its ratification on April 1, 1952 (98 Cong. Rec. 3241-2, 1952). This was quite obviously a treaty, not an executive agreement, so does not appear to come within the scope of your Subcommittee's present concern. We mention it only in case it may be of some interest to you.

Sincerely yours,

WILLIAM J. CASEY, Chairman.
