MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Conversation with Secretary Brown
2 August 1977
Subjects discussed:
1. Draft Presidential memorandum on PRM-11 (see separate memo).
2. To deliver copy of our memorandum on the possible leak of
PRM-10.
3. MKULTRA: MKOFTEN; MKCHIKWIT.
a. Mentioned that as the result of The New York Times
story I may be quizzed tomorrow on the DoD drug operations
OFTEN and CHIKWIT. I told him that I believed these were
partially funded by CIA starting in 1967, but there was no
testing on human beings and that the CIA played a rather
minor role. The Secretary directed Admiral Holcomb to get
me information as to whether those points were correct from
a DoD point of view. I also said that I would defer testi-
fying in any detail on these operations and leave that to
Defense.
(1) Immediately after leaving the Secretary's
office, I received a request to call Dr. Horowitz
of Senator Kennedy's staff. He told me that he
wanted to let me know that they intended to ask
about MKSEARCH, MKOFTEN and MKCHIKWIT. They wanted
to know whether CIA only funded these or was really
calling the shots, and indicated that previous DoD
testimony had said that CIA was calling the shots.
They wanted to know where the records of MKOFTEN
were today.
