MKUltra Subproject 71

MKUltra Subproject 71 was approved and funded in 1960-1961. The surviving financial records show $800.00 in total professional services payments to a redacted researcher or consultant. Two invoices from June and August 1961 each bill for 16 days of work at $50.00 per day, totaling $800.00. Treasury checks were issued on June 21, 1961 and June 2, 1961 to cover these payments. A cost ledger from 1960-1961 tracks multiple smaller obligations and liquidations against Allotment Number 1125-1390-3902. An August 1960 memorandum approved $9600.00 of overall MKUltra project funds to cover Subproject 71 expenses. The documents do not describe the research topic or the identity of the researcher, with most names redacted. The file shows only financial and administrative tracking of contractor or consultant payments through the CIA's Technical Services Division.
