undertake an entirely new phase of research. Starting l July 1916,
Dr. Mi^ will uhdeFt¥ke^to ivAestigate the feasibility of utilis-

to continue his research of the LSD Mocking effect of various tissue JT*extracts. It is planned that the mechanism of this reaction will be \***more fully explored and the results be applied to human studies.
This phase of the overall program is expected to represent 20 per-cent of the budget

be to serve as a human experimental body lor items obtained from2 and 3 above, in addition to ad hoc testing requests emanating fromTSS/CD.
The estimated cost of the program, starting .1 July 1956, foraperiod of 15 months will not exceed. 340, 000, To this must be added$1, 600 representing a four percent service charge to the JttMHfiHBKV« Tbus the total cost is not expected t o exceed $41, GOOr'Cbarges

Aerosol Studies . The therapy ofindividuals by means of aerosols is of greatsignificance in-medicine. A hitherto unexploredarea of aerosols is the delivery of nebulizers-using nonaqueous solvents. It is proposed that'
studies be made^of organic materials in non-aqueous solvents and their mixtures with water todetermine nebulizer delivery over prolonged periodsof therapy. (60 per cent of budget).
* 2. As you know, the blocking of LSDinactions has been claimed by many pharmaceuticalhouses, although none~of these claims have reallybeen substantiated . It is proposed that recentInvestigations by me on tissue extracts befurther explored with a view toward discoveringwhat it is in these extracts that blocks the LSDreaction, keeping in mind possible application ofthese compounds to experimental and clinicalpsychoses in man. It is understood that this partof the project will be discontinued December 31,1956. (20 per cent of budget).
3. Continuation of studies on non-psychotic humans with a view toward maintaininga test group, as well as to provide experimentalwork in a frame of reference" different from thatframe of reference incorporated by items 1. and2. of the foregoing . However, it shall be theprimary purpose of the nonpsychotic test groupto test the results obtained by items 1. and 2.
( 20 per cent of budge t ) .
It is anticipated that the foregoingbudget may be amplified by supplementary funds tobe received from foundations.
The: fo31ovj-Jng is the proposed budget.Owing toithe Amcertaintyi:of::plans for the fiscalyear 1956-1957, I should like, if possible, tohave the privilege of utilizing the proposedbudget to September 30, 1957 rather than toJune 30, 125?.

MB40RANDUM FOR: THE RECORD -.
SUBJECT: Project KKtfiTRA, Subproject 40
1. During -the period 3 July 1953 to 3 July 1955 Pr» ___,—Mm furnished a total of $76,420.00 to^jggMpf HospTtel for
a porfion of the work on an approved HKULTRA activity (see Sub-
projects 7 and 23). During this same period the Hospital expended^a total of $34,605,32. From the other phases of Wproject there was an unexpended balance of $7,820,50 during-tms^
two-yea* period. Thus thsre vas a deficit. of v8»185«32 oa the
portion and an excess of $7 , 829.50 on the remaining portion
leaving a net over -expenditure of $364.74.
2 aSMBl financed its over-expenditure by applying un-
returned KSsfirnished that institution duringAhe year 3 July
1952 to 3 July 1953 under RD-37. The entire over-expenditure -^
occurred during the year 3 July 1954 to 3 July 1955 end occurred
because Hospital included previous unexpended funds in
their total balance and included these funds when indicating to
our contractor,- Dr. jjlttp; the unexpended balance of f^ds on
hand. The internal difficulty created for TSS/CD is that the RD-37
funds furnished in 1952-53 must be accounted for separately from
the MKULTRA funds furnished after 3 July 1953.
3. For security reasons there is no way to recover the funds
PlIfflMIiMilii Hospital expended in excess of what they received after^
3 July 1953. These funds were all expended in legitimate activities
in connection with an approved KlUIuRA project,
4, A total of $364,74 of current FI 56 funds is therefore
required to compensate for RD-37 funds which were expended against
an approved 2-KiJLTRA project.
5 , A eusmary of payments and expenditures from 3 July 1952
to 3 July 1955 is attached.
6. The above procedures were approved by Mr.
mflKBA auditor for 1956, at a meeting attended by

/B. The principal investigator shall, upon the completion of theprogram, retwn to the sponsor any unexpended funds that have been ad-vanced for the research program.
C, The investigator shall open and maintain a special bank accountfor receipt of all funds advanced by the sponsor. In addition to this,the investigator shall sign a Declaration of Trust on the special bankaccount.
// D. Title to permanent equipment purchased with funds furnished
to the principal investigator shall remain with the sponsor, exceptthat title to equiprae

I was very glad to have the" privilege of talking over with you the
possibility of continuing research next year. In accordance with our dis-
cussion, the proje ct would be s et up primarilyprovided that 1 c an make a firm commitment
kTTo r e~anyo'hV'eTs e gets the "space. I n addition, D r needs the
approval- of the executive committee which I believe should be routine since
a precedent has been set up during the pa st summer when normal subjects
were used.
As I visualize the project, the commercially important compounds .
will be studied about half of the research tinie with the rest of the timedevoted to antidote and synergy experiments on man as well as experimentson lov/er forms. This partition is necessary as we discussed to provide the
sanction required by all parties concerned and is contingent upon the following

This project is also contingent upon our obtaining all of the
equipment from The Hospital, seme of which
could be sold althoughthb r c s a! e value of theie items ls^mall . In accord
ance with our conversation I am planning to try to raise additional funds
from other sources as well as ^ an additional $15,000 can be
raised from other sources I believe that the study of industrially important
compounds can be increased appreciably so that 80 to 90 per cent of the
research time can be allocated to these compounds. .
i
At this time, although not directly connected with the foregoing,
but indirectly connected with the project as a whole, has been the cooperation
which I have received from^|^j|^jjf.- As you know, they have provided me wi^h
many compounds and have cooperated in many ways in facilitating the program
of the experiments. It has been a natural consjequence.of this cooperation^^
especially because of the claims which I have made witn their product( reprint
enclosed) that these threapeutic claims be broadened to include the use of_
their product in group therapy. The transcriptions of our data make it
appear that certain basic postulates of the useiof the drug in gr^up therapy
maybe obtained by screening the data. I had proposed tojJ^Mjgpf before your
expanded 1955-1956 project materialized and at a time when~T thought that no
project could be. plannedjthat^lriJJ) provide me with a psychologist interested
in group therapy to screen thi} data. Iknow on the basis of the conversation
here that you thought that perhaps this form of supj>or^jcQigM-UQ.t..t>.e. desirable.
However , I wonder if- it would be wise for me to refuse their support. I do
not believe that ithey would get any closer „to the project than they are mw^Asa matter of fact, the work”could be done here in my office and not at

In view of our discussions pertaining to my position in the general field with
