Schweiker (R., Pa.) - MKULTRA Related Matter 1. II On 2 October 1978, I received a telephone call from Charlie Powers, of Senator Schweiker's office, who was inquiring about an MKULTRA. related matter. Mr. Powers wanted to ascertain if CIA had at any time made public the fact that the Pedlow Nease Company located in Lockhaven, Pennsylvania was one of the institutions involved in MKULTRA. After checking wit OTS; OGC; and advised r. Powers that we had released the Pedlow I Iname under the FOIA in an MKULTRA context (see 2. (C) Mr. Powers called me on 10 October and wanted to know whether we had ever made public the fact thatl was a witting participant in the MKULTRA project. Again, after checking with the aforementioned persons, I assured Mr. Powers that CIA had not made this fact public. (NOTE: During our discussions, Mr. Powers indicated that his interest in this matter revolved around an allegation that appeared recently in an unnamed magazine that the drug yohimbine is in fact an aphrodisiac. A query to I resulted in the attached memorandum under Tab B.)

Per your telephoned request of 3 October 1978, attached are two documents copied from MKULTRA Sub- Project #20, dated 27 November 1953 and 18 November 1953. These documents relate to a contractual arrangement for the production of the "di-Mannich of yohimbine" from two pounds of yohimbine hydrochloride. Please note that in their present unsanitized form, these documents are con- sidered classified. 2. There is nothing in the file to indicate the rea- son for making this compound nor for the interest in yohimbine. As a result of this request, two references were checked: A. Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products, Gosselin, Hodge, Smith and Gleason; 4th Edition, 1976: "Once reputed to be an aphrodisiac, but it has no proved therapeutic uses." B. Physician's Desk Reference; 31st Edition, 1977: "Andro Medicone (Reg. T.M.) tablets containing yoham- bine hydrochloride; Indicated for sexual feebleness of psychogenic origin." It seems likely that at the time this work was performed the product was believed to be an aphrodisiac. 25X1 OTS Missions and Programs Staff Enclosure: As stated cc: DDA/IPS OGC CONFIDENTIAL E2 Approved For Release 2004/08/19: CIA-RDP81 M00980R000 09026'0 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2004/08/19 : CIA-RDP81 M00980R000100020006-3 Next 2 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2004/08/19 : CIA-RDP81 M00980R000100020006-3
