I recommend that a supplement to our Handwriting Analysis Task Budget be made in the amount amount is larger than ~hy estilnated budget submitted because it is my ~/ - opinion that as his work progresses under the stimulus our grant will provide, he will find he ha.s not allowed suf.f'ici~nt funds to acrieve his objectives. # Enclosure ifl Enclosure if2 is our letter This page contains a typed financial statement for an "Editorial Project" covering the period of May 1, 1959, through June 30, 1960. It lists expenditures across various categories, with "Salaries" being the largest at $18,135.41. There's a handwritten date "September 19, 1960" at the top right and a signature and date "9/24/60" at the bottom. A significant portion of the lower section of the page is obscured by large black redactions, obscuring what appears to be official stamps or handwritten text related to certifications or approvals. The page displays a financial ledger detailing "Graphology Expenses" from July 1959 to August 1960, with a total expenditure of $7,907.82. There's a handwritten amount of "720.00" labeled "Handwriting Magazine Project," bringing the grand total to $8,627.82. The document includes computations for the "Amount in Graphology Account," showing an expenditure of $8,627.82 and a resulting balance of $2,821.64. Heavy black redactions obscure a significant portion of the "Travel and Miscellaneous" section, as well as parts of the ledger's details and certification section. Handwritten annotations include "83" in the top right corner and "C" in the middle right. There is also an item with a handwritten percentage sign "%". the amount amount is larger than ~hy estilnated budget submitted because it is my ~/ - opinion that as his work progresses under the stimulus our grant will provide, he will find he ha.s not allowed suf.f'ici~nt funds to acrieve his objectives. # Enclosure ifl Enclosure if2 is our letter of commit a first payment on the grant in the amount of $)00. MY unorthodox action in u~ing this transmittal was dictated by the srna.ll amount involved, by the deliber.atio:a and planning which has borne the approval and consent of our Directors and •••• and by my strongly felt need to respond quic~r to this proposal for public rel~tions purposes. If, after consideration, you feel that this grant should not be made, there are sufficient administrative funds on ~1::._o cover the first year's grant and these can be diverted from ot.h e•!-J-. . projects • •' RECEIPT I hereby acknowledge receipt of the following: c ..

The purpose of the supplement to this project is to support a s:pecial research study of hand~n-i ting analysis. Graphologists will categorize a number of handwriting specimens according to the degree to which these specimens tend to reveal personality dimensions. Other experts in handwriting analysis, including graphologists, hand- "'trit ing identification experts and experimental psychologist·s, ~11 examine the above groups of handwriting specimens to determine any identifiable characteristics of the actual handwriting. Both the above phases will be repeated as a cross validation. 2. The original budget for this project did not cover the cost of This document is a typed letter with handwritten annotations. The date "December 28, 1959" is visible at the top right, along with handwritten notations "83-6 #2". There are also significant redacted portions throughout the document, obscuring names, titles, and specific details of a proposal and grant. Handwritten letters "C/F" appear multiple times in the margins, and a handwritten "B" is visible in the lower right portion of the page and above the signature line. A section of text mentions "The Board of Directors" and "scientific advisors," and a signature line reads "Executive Secretary." The document appears to be a typed memorandum with handwritten annotations. There are significant black redactions obscuring portions of the text, particularly in the "Memorandum to:", "From:", and sections within the body of the letter. Handwritten notations, including initials and possibly a signature, are present in the margins and near the top of the page, along with a date and a number in handwriting. The layout suggests a formal communication, but the redactions make it impossible to ascertain the specific subject matter or recipients. No photographs, diagrams, or stamps are visible. graphologists, hand- "'trit ing identification experts and experimental psychologist·s, ~11 examine the above groups of handwriting specimens to determine any identifiable characteristics of the actual handwriting.

The specific directiqn of res;earch could not {!__ be determined un the final stages of his survey of handwriting analysis. The supplementary a~tached budget includes estimated fees for graphologists and administration costs associated only with this research phase. 3.
