MEMORANDUM FOR: Mr. Bros

SUBJECT : Reported Agency Funding of Heroin Study

1. ORD, in reporting association of employees with Egil
Krogh in connection with the government narcotics program,
referred to an Agency funding action on 30 June 1972 whereby
$37,500 was transferred to OST (the Office of Science and Tech-
nology under the Executive) from ORD's budget. The money was
to fund a proposed by IDA (I am told this is the Institute for
Defense Analysis), and was approved by the DDI, ADD/S&T,
[REDACTED]
acting for the DDS, and Mr. Colby as Executive Director-
Comptroller.

2. I judge this to be a proper and normal expenditure within
the government in connection with a high priority government
program on narcotics. I recommend that this not be reported as
an action subject to external criticism.

S. D. Breckinridge
