Recently plans wore developed whereby certain eicar.ed contacts
17ould rnecrte_to to train nedieal personnel for CIA for the
field testing procrtr.m. The plan, in brief, contemplated
establishing contracts through the Vett:I-F-1s Administration,
and tImomgh the Ilr.iversity of V.i.nncsota. . Under the contrasts,
personnel would be traf.ned in the use of drugs, electric s',-.�.oe%
and other potential fltelds, ostensibly for the purpose of
doing research in. psychiatry. Ito contractor, who would be
Sully cleared and briefed, would evaluate those tr.:ch.:Ives
