The image provided is not a declassified CIA document page. Instead, it is a static image that displays text overlayed on a graphic design. The graphic features a stylized depiction of a vault door on the left, rendered in grey and blue tones with intricate mechanical details. To the right of the vault graphic, white text is presented against a black background, with the title "THE BLACK VAULT" in a stylized font at the top. The subsequent text explains that the document was obtained from "The Black Vault," an online database of declassified government documents, specifically mentioning the MKULTRA/Mind Control Collection and providing a website URL in yellow text at the bottom. There are no photographs, handwritten notes, official stamps, forms, diagrams, tables, redactions, or any visual evidence of experimental procedures or facilities. --- _e·:_ ~) -9". - .. ----!-------------- ·--~- I .._ .-~-\--~ -;._-...:..,.,::_....:;: .. _: ___ ---------:_ _____ -·-- ----~---~ ~--=-j-------·--------·--_,...--·,,-----·------ ,.-~-------- _.._ J : ! r~.~----- ~- ----- ----'·--·-------~ -•--~~~~~-~~~~-~---------~.-- ----------:''--------·-·- ~--~ ( --·--i_..._,I i ------------------~. ·---'--·~-- ·-----·-·--~-- I _______ -------!-·~---·-------- _!_ _________. ._ _____ ~-----------------~- ------- 1 i ---~~ ~-----~---~·------------·----------~------------·~--------------~ ---------------------~:--------- _ ·---- -~-44~-~--~·--"-------!:. _.....__.____._..~--=------:--c-_,_~ ----..,;i-~-·~A------~ ----~~-..----~-·-----_, i ---------·-- . ~------~,---------~---~--~-~-L----------~-~-----· -------- ______ ______ - ... _,.,....,..-. . ..._..-~_,.,...,"...,_..--.------~ ... -~-~~: ' , ,. __. ... .... -~-----~~~----------~--------~ / ' . -~-~-·--·-~~--~------~----~---*·----~--~------------_~_'- --·--·-·----~---------~-··-~---~~--~--- ____ ._......_ ... .._,._ . . _.~ ......... .... ---~------~---·--------:..--.,.,.,--....._ ,.._,._. __ -----_ __..,. . ----.. ...., .... .._-..-.__,,_._.,..!_ _._ ____ - =-------.,·-,..._----"'-.:.,.--o-..-.;·------------~-:·-~•-,__- ~"---·-·--·-~----------•--~------ __...~..--,..--_,.-.-..-.-,_,_, --- -------------- I -~-----·-----------~----- ----·----·--~~ -..-,-.. ---r---- 1 I I -:1~.:-:·c ~i ':l'"i.{~.:L~~~1 ;:._-:::'-i,:.")~i ·.::::~. ..... _··::~ :L~:t~-·--;:·:. . -·':·~·.::-;.'! .;.•"!.: ~~'£;~~j.:.:~c~~~-:·-~~~'' -~- r·-"";;~~~-=: ~._-- ,_,.:: "":. -~·:·~~ •• ; ~";~>-;,",__ ......: --t1, ....... :~.:.-·. ,. . .·. --~ ·. •~ -~ ::.~.

It is my under standing that correspondenc_e_with Deputy Chief, .Finance Division.-has led to the-conclusion Fund reported on·the books of the Finance Division as such is subject to rules a..nd reg';.llations which are not compatible with the procedures approved by the DCI under which MKULTRA is handled. Imprest Fund regulations apparently require that expenses and ;l,ccountings be forwarded to Finance Division when reimbu.rsement 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 o! these items and the reasons for their purchase (particularly the occasional destruction of what would normally be considered \!nexpendable 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 c:mvert it to an Imprest Fund rather than terminate it and establish a new subproject 50 as an lmprest Fund. This 11 re._ sult in our fo11owing all of the recommendations in Mr. report with the sole exception that subproject 30 will not be recorded_on th~ _ books of the Finance Division as an l:mprest Fund. ~ecently 4. I understand that Majo as returned with a complete detailed list of recent expenditures under tnfS subpro.ject. 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 y·:m obligate under subproject 30 the exact sum required which, when added to the cash on_b_~~_<:i.-:::_..vill bring your total cash funds to $1, 000. you One thousand dollars is your files and ____ _ that you determine the exact cash on hand. With this figure in mind, I suggest that y·:m obligate under subproject 30 the exact sum required which, when added to the cash on_b_~~_<:i.-:::_..vill bring your total cash funds to $1, 000. you One thousand dollars is _the-sum which I believe have determined to ::_c ___ be necessary under this project rather than the amo~nt of $500. 00 mentione_d_ __ _ P, . - as-an example by Mr.~. 5. When this additional obligation is on hand and you have exactly $1,000 __ in cash, 'you should operate the project as an Impre~t i:i''und, i. e., future reimbursements should b?_l!lade_atc_l~ast_quarterly apd-in an amount exactly __ equal to the new accumulation of-vouchers ~whTc}i.-w-at thus result in in the project's funds being brought ba-ckc to precisely_$_1,_000 each time it is replenished. Car.e-should-b-e~t~l<.~Il.J_o replenish the fund and_ bring i~ pa_ck_ _ to $1,000 toward the end oLeachFiscalYear~so-that expenses incurred during. a pat'ticular_ F:iscal Year will be covered by that FY1s funds. As mentioned i.n Mr. -_:~port, charges to expense would thus be made only on the----- basis of an accountin-g -properly app):'_()y_ed-,--and-the a~countings would remain fr in the MKULTRA files of TSS. 1f your quarter-ly-accountings coincide with -r the end of a Fiscal Year, beli-eve that th; s will alSo satisfy Mr in that reimbursements witl-be- made to the project with FY fu.nds correRponding to the FY in which the expenses were incurred; and o£ course, approval of operating officials will have been obtained prior to reimbursement to the project for these expenditures. A· 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 J the sum of $500. 00 which Mr. pma.yshow on- ht~ books as obligated. p TSS/OC;~(26 September 1955) Distr~tion: · ~~:r:essee - Orig. only TSS/OC - 1 -2- < . .

It includes handwritten annotations such as "50-6" in the upper right corner, and two 'A' markings near the bottom, one also next to "FD/ADB/". There are also two checkmark-like symbols next to points 2 and 3. The text discusses a request for an Imprest Fund MKULTRA and notes that the request is returned without approval as it does not meet regulatory requirements. There are several redacted sections throughout the document, appearing as blacked-out boxes obscuring varying amounts of text. This document is a "Routing and Record Sheet" with official stamps indicating "CONFIDENTIAL," "SECRET," and "UNCLASSIFIED" designations. The form includes a table with pre-printed fields for "TO," "ROOM NO.," "DATE," "OFFICERS INITIALS," and "TELEPHONE." Handwritten entries fill in many of these fields, detailing personnel and dates from September 1955. Significant handwritten annotations and marginalia are present in the "COMMENTS" section, including what appear to be abbreviations and an instruction to "HAND CARRY." There are also several blacked-out areas, obscuring portions of the text within the table and potentially elsewhere on the page. author~ndt'~~fu ...(, t) d . f.n . : / 11 f]ld-f,_/l).
