THIS MESSAGE
IS
IN RESPONSE TO COMMENTS REQUESTED
IN
THE REFERENCED MESSAGE RELATING TO PARAPHYSICS TOPICS.
REPLY

BEEN LIMITED TO THOSE QUESTIONS RELEVANT TO FTD'S PROGRAM
WITH THE STANFORD RESEARCH INSTITUTE

PAST,
PRESENT AND FUTURE PLANS:
-
A.
FID’S PREVIOUS EFFORT
IN THIS AREA OF INVESTIGATION
ilAS
BEEN PREVIOUSLY SUPPLIED IN THE FY77 FINAL REPORT TITLED
ADVANCED THREAT TECHNIQUE ASSESSMENT
(SRI
7-4? 75)
.
A FINAL
REPORT ON RECENT WORK WILL
BE AVAILABLE BY THE END OF JULY AND
WILL
BE PROVIDED AT THAT TIME.
B.
FT PRESENT,
FTD PLANS TO PURSUE THOSE
BASIC OBJECTIVES
OUTLINED
IN THE REFERENDED WORK STATEMENT
(PARA
-4
)
.
MAIN
ORIENTATION
IS TO EVALUATE OR SIMULATE USSR RESEARCH ACHIEVEMENTS
(OR CLAIMS/, AND TO EXAMINE FEASIBILITY OF COMMUNICATION AND
REMOTE VIEWING POTENTIAL.

L.
TO PURSUE^ RESEARCH
,
NOR TO ATTEMPT DEVELOP-
ment of specific applications,
ftd's current contract with the
STANFORD RESEARCH
INSTITUTE EXTENDS THROUGH MAY
1979.
C.
FTD HAS SUPPORTED THESE
BASIC INVESTIGATIONS WITH
THE STANFORD RESEARCH
INSTITUTE
(SRI)
SINCE
1976.
SRI’S WORK
TO DATE HAS GREATLY BENEFITED FTD’S ASSESSMENT OF WARSAW PACT
RESEARCH
IN THIS AREA
,
BOTH IN EVALUATING ASPECTS OF FOREIGN
RESEARCH DATA, AND
IN PROVIDING INSIGHT INTO THIS FIELD
IN
GENERAL.
I HERE MAY NOT BE A CLEAR NEED FOR FTD TO CONTINUE SUCH
SUPPORT TO SRI
IN THE FUTURE
HOWEVER,
FTD MAY ELECT TO SUPPORT
OTHER ASPECTS OF PARAPHYSICS INVESTIGATIONS WITH OTHER LABORATOR IE
SUCH SUPPORT COULD POTENTIALLY BE TO EVALUATE ENERGETICS -TYPE
(WSWVANCE AND RELATED PHYSIOLOGICAL ISSUES
(EFFECT <V
MAGNETIC
FIELDS^ OR LOW FREQUENCY FIELDS,
ETC,)
WHERE ASSISTANCE
IN.
EVALUATING THE USSR RESEARCH WOULD BE REQUIRED.
