MEMORANDUM FOR THE .RECORD

SUBJECT : MKULTRA PROGRAM

1. A meeting was held in General Cal.ter's office on 29 Nove::iber. · 1963 to discuss the subject program. Those present, in addition to General ·carter, Were Messrs. :Helms, Kirkpatrick~ .- C "lGottlieb,. and Earman. The ma.in thrust of the discussfon was the testing or certain drug!: on unwitting U. S. citizens. Dr. Gottlieb gave a brief history of the MKULTRA program which was not in any wa.y_ at variance . with the IG report of August 1963 on this subject. ·

2. Messrs. Gottlieb and c· _jargued for t~e ~ontin~~i~on cf unwitting testing, u~ing as the principal point that controlled testing ca.n.r.ot be depended upon for accurate results. General Carter, Mr. Kirkpatrick, and I do not disagree with this point. We also accept. the neces~ity for having a "stable of drugs" on the shelf and the l'equiremcn~ for continued research and development o! drugs--not only for possible operational use but also to give CIA insight on the state of the art b this

. field and in particular to alert us to what the opposition is or might be expect~d to do in the RhD and. employment of drugs .. .

3. -~ c .. __ ',tot~d that the;~· was no disagreement. with the recommendations of the IO survey on MKULTRA with the exception or the unwitting testing problem. In response to a query fxom Cienera.1 Carter, he stated that since the IG rep9~t such testing has been held in abeyance. ·

. . ' .

4. General Carter made it clear that he understood the necessity ftlr research and development o! all type:- o! drugs, to include their testing. However, hew~~ troubled by the "unwitting .aspect". This led t~ a. brlef • discussion on the Eossibility of Wlwitting te!lts on foreign nationals,. bat according to· L "f this had been ruled out as a resclt of several · conversations he recently had with senior r.hiefs of stations--too da.n&~rous and the lack of controlled facilities. (This seemed an odd conclusion

to me since tho same dangers exist in the U. ·s. and from what we · were a.blc to find out during our survey, the facilities we have for uncontrolled testing leave much to be desired--1 made a point 0£ this.)

5. After further discussion, it was ~gr~ed:

a. That the charter of MKULTRA would be revised along the lines recommended in the IG survey.

b. The procedut"es !or testipg drugs are to be. reviewed · and. new alternative proposals submitted.

c. If .it is concluded by the DD/P that unwitting testing on .American citizens must be continued to opera­tionally prove out these drugs, it may become necessary to place this problem before the Director fo~ a decision. · ... ·. . .

£. I made the point t.hat the IG survey had found other proble:m. . with the 1'1KULTRA program in addition to the unwitting testirig, but stated if the charter is rewritten along the lines rocommonded, I believe these problems would be corrected. . .

Tests Contradict U.S •. Story of Man's Suicide Family Says Man Killed '. . After CIA Experiment · · ·

By Brian Mooar . W...hhlaio11 Pott SW/ Wrli.r

Preliminary result;g of a forensic examination appear to contradict· government assertions that gefJl1- . . warfare researcher F(ank R. Olaon, · who died hl. 1953 after Wlwitti.Ogly · takini LSD in a CIA experiment, jumped to his death from a Manhat­tan hotel. ·

Multiple fractures to Olson's skull . did not appear consistent with a 13-stocy fall, according to James · E. S~-rs, a, George Washington Uni­versity prolei$or of law and forensic science.

Stans,. who examined Olson's re· mains after they were exhwned in ~une in Frederick, Md., said injuries to the skull and other pa.rt& of 01-­son's body 8\lggeated that hie death wai not the simple suicide that the government has portrayed for 40 years. .

Stan-s's early findings add to the. Olson family's decades~ld suspicion.· that' Ol~on was slain. Family mem-·: · bers believe O~oil, one of the na-· tion•a top germ-warfare reaear.ch~ ers, wa& killed because LSD he unknowingly 'took made 'him erratic and irrational and a threat to reveal classified information.

"The suspicions are looming much larger," said Starrs, characterizing the new evidence as "curious," or

· even "ainister." Stans ·also haa con· ducted foren~c examinations in the cases of Lizzie Bord~n'a ax-mur- ·

Stam said he would conduct fur­tlter tests on Olson's skull to deter­mine exactly how the damage was caused.

_Starrs and his team are awaiting results of toxicological studies that could show whether drugs or toxins were present in the scientist's body at the time of death. · · Stans traveled to Manhattan yes. terday with five members of hls re­eeai'ch team to question a key wit­ness and ~eate the scene where the scientist plunged from a lSih­floor win®w .of the Hotel StaUer, now the Hotel Pennsylvania.

Relyillg upon the recollections of Armond Pastore, night manager of the Hotel Statler on the morning of Nov. 28, 1953) Starrs etched a chalk · btidy outline on tire sidewalk of Sev- · enth Avenue facing Madison Square Garden and Penn Station. The . lunch· time spectacle broagh.t foot : traffice on the Manhattan sidewalk to a standstill as more than 100 New Yorkers gawked at the scientific team taking measurementa of a wl­untcet sprawled on the sidewalk.

Asked whether he believed Olson jwnped ·.from the window, Pastore said, "No. I trunk he had a lot of : Aelp." .
