MEADE, MARYLAND 20755 DD/S82+ 4591.74 Serial: Ñ 1328 9 December 1974 Dr. Sayre Stevens Assistant Deputy Director for Science and Technology Central Intelligence Agency Langley, Virginia Dear Sayre: Soupe has informed me of the valuable assistance your people, in particular, Ken Kress, provided in helping him arrange one of our Seminars for Engineering Executives. Through Mr. Kress's efforts, the Stanford Research Institute scientists Dr. H. Puthoff and R. Targ were "properly cleared" for an all-day presentation: "Recent Developments In Psychoenergetic Research" on 24 September 1974. STAT STAT : The seminar was attended by more than one hundred senior-level engineers and scientists. The presentations were excellent; all questions were answered in a forthright manner. While it is likely that no one "changed his religion" because of the seminar, the most apparent results were (a) heightened respect for the integrity of both the research and the researchers, and (b) increased awareness and interest in the kind of phenomena being studied. The Seminar Coordinator claims to have received more laudatory comments about this seminar than he had about any previous one. . I'd like to express my personal thanks and appreciation for the assistance on the seminar and your cooperative efforts in general. Sincerely, STAT Deputy Director for Research and Engineering Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2014/01/09 : CIA-RDP79-00999A000200010108-6 ------ XIX
