[PAGE 1]
l. This memorandum records recent developments in our
Tattempt to adapt for convenient use by our owm Staff personnel. You will recall that an earlier proposal (Memorandum subjeot as above) was disapproved beozuse of the inability of
A and myselr to get away from Washington for two waeks. Your instructions were to press forward with our training but to arrange that it be done in the Washington arsa.

3. The major problem that remains unsolved is acquisition of mubjectsto be usedfor training here. Aa you know, of A is a membar of an informal group which practices hypnotisn sociallyithis group is somehow conneoted with church, and A was started by a retired stage hypnotiat. Some accesa to subjeots may be darived through this group. Other pools of aubjeots may be available through Dr. of TSD, or the Office of Medicine. A As a last resort we may be able to got some holp from the Offioe of Seourity, although the subjects uhich they provided in previous training exercises are too soft for our present purposes. (We need men, skeptically or even hostilly oriented.)
