MEMORANDUM FOR: TSS/CD
ATTENTION
SUBJECT : MKULTRA Subprojects 30 and 50
1. The report of audit dated 17-June 1955 prepared by Mr.
afiirilificovering Project MKULTRA for the period 15 January 1954
through 30 April 1955, recommended in connection with subproject
30 as follows:
It is suggested that this project be placed on a revolving
fund basis, i. e., establish a fixed amount of about $500,00
or any other amount that will meet the needs of the project for-
a reasonable periocl-of time and reimburse the fund on the basis
of accountings submitted at-least quarterly.� The fixed amount
may be increased or decreased as the need demands and will
be recorded on the books of the-Finance DiVision as an Imprest
Fund. The same certification should be used for reimbursing the
imprest fund as is now authorized by the MKULTRA plan. Charges
to expense would be made only on the basis of an accounting
properly approved and the accountings would remain in the
MKULTRA files of TSS._This-poposed revision will permit more
accurate distribution of expenses to the proper fiscal year and will require approval by operating officials prior to reimbursing
the fund for expenditures made."
2. It is my understanding that correspondence with
Deputy Chief, Finance Divisionhas led to the conclusion that any Imprest
Fund reported on-the books of the Finance Division as such is subject to
rules and regulations which are not compatible with the procedures approved
by the DCI under which MKULTRA is handled. Imprest Fund regulations
apparently require that expenses and accountings be forwarded to Finance
Division when reimbursement is requested. The security maintained for
MKULTRA is such that it is not feasible to forward to the Finance Division
a list of items purchased under this project since the nature of these items
and the reasons for their purchase (particularly the occasional destruction
of what would normally be considered unexpendable equipment) would dis-
close too much of the nature of the sensitive work being handled under
MKULTRA,
3. For this reason I believe it will be satisfactory to continue with
subproject 30 and convert it to an Imprest Fund rather than terminate
it and establish a new subproject 50 as an Imprest Fund. This will re-
sult in our following all, of the recommendations in Mr. report A
with the sole exception that subproject 30 will not be recorded on the
books of the Finance Division as an Tmprest Fund.
A
4. I understand that Majo as recently returned with a complete
detailed list of recent expenditures under this subproject. It is my sug-
gestion that these evidences of expenditures be placed in your files and
that you determine the exact cash on hand. With this figure in mind, I
suggest that you obligate under subproject 30 the exact sum required which,
when added to the cash on handwill bring your total cash funds to $1,000.
One thousand dollars is the sum which I believe you have determined to
be necessary under this project rather than the amount of $500.00 mentioned
as an example by Mr. A
5. When this additional obligation is on hand and you have exactly $1,000
in cash, you should operate the project as an Imprest Fund, a. e. , future
reimbursements should be made at least quarterly and in an amount exactly
equal to the new accumulation of vouchers which thus result in in the
project's funds being brought back to precisely $1, 000 each time it is
replenished. Care should be taken to replenish the fund and bring it back --
to $1, 000 toward the end of each Fiscal Year so that expenses incurred during
a particular Fiscal Year will be covered by that FY's funds. As mentioned
in Mr report, charges to expense would thus be made only on the
basis of in accounting properlyt, -and-the accountings would remain
in the MKULTRA files of TSS. If your quarterly accountings coincide with
the end of a Fiscal Year, I believe that th's will also satisfy Mr � in
that reimbursements will be made to the project with FY funds corresponding
to the FY in which the expenses were incurred; and of course, approval of
operating officials will have been obtained prior to reimbursement to the
project for these expenditures.
6. You might discuss this with Mr. the next time he is in your
office. Steps should also be taken if necessary to cancel subproject 50 and
the sum of $500.00 which Mr. VOrrnay show on his books as obligated.

MORANDUM FOR: THE REMO
SUBJECT : M(ULTRA Subprojeot 50
1. This memorandum is written to record the purpose of Sub-
project 50, t1"..3 reasons for establishing it, and the mechanics by
which it will be aAmenistered.
2. The.jbove subproject has been created to continue the
support to IPIDivision, which was previously furnished
by Subprojects 13 and 30. Si" apport will be over and above the
yearly financial support of Project MKNAOMI and will fall into
two categories: (1) the purchase of certain materials, supplies
and equipment where the use of other-funds would cause either
excessive delay in operations or undue security hazards; and (2)
the support of activities in-which Agency sponsorship makes it /-
difficult for Division to obtain financial support from normal
sources since ose sources require an undesirable amount of justi-
fication.
3. The subproject has been created at the sp ciao request
of Mr. and with the approval of General in order to rr
correct undesirable administrative procedures evi ent in the handling '
of Subprojects 13 and 30.
- 4. This subproject will be handled as an imprest fund with an
initial grant of $500.00. As expenses are incurred and upon
presentation of vouchered proof of expenditure, _subsequent grants
will be made in the amounts expended. The cash on hand and/or
receipts of expenditure will total $500.00 at all times. In-
structions to the Fund Custodian are-attached.
5. This is a continuing project with no specific amount
earmarked per unit time. �Budget estimates will�be based on ex-
perience in Subprojects 13 and 30.
6. Subproject 30 will b�eplosed out and cash on hand will
be returned to Finance on receipt of the initial $500,00 grant.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT
: MKULTRA, Subproject 50
1. The purpose of subproject 50 is to continue to provide the
support previously furnished to the under sub-
project 30. Support will be furnished to certain TSS/CD activities carried
out by the or in conjunction with the
Cr-
2. In accordance with the suggestion made by Mr.
in his
memorandum dated 17 June 1955 which was approved by Gen this
project is being set up as an imprest petty cash fund with an initial grant of
$500.00. From time to time as these funds are depleted, reimbursement
will be requested, acc ompanied by vouchered proof of expenditures by the
using agency in accordance with the written agreement between that agency and
TSS/CD.
3. The support will primarily fall in two general categories:. one,
the purchase of certain materials, supplies and equipment where the use by
the of other funds would either delay operations excessively or
result in security problems in view of the peculiar nature of the items to,be 6--
purchased; and two, activities where the unusual security considerations_ ---- -
surrounding Agency sponsorship of th make it difficult for th
#10160114 to obtain financial support from customary sources since such 3 n-xt- c es
would require an undesirable amount of written or oral justification. Suis2--:�oject
50 funds will thus be used to pay for purchase of unusual supplies, materials
