Allen W. Dulles appointed as Deputy Director for Plans in January 1951, with CIA. He was responsible for supervising both OPC (Office of Policy Coordination) and OSO (Office of Special Operations). In August 1952, these two merged to became the DDP (Directorate of Plans) and Dulles became Deputy Director of the CIA in charge of clandestine collection and covert action. In February 1953, Dulles became Director of the CIA. In August 1951, project Bluebird was renamed Artichoke and included in-house experiments on special interrogation techniques-primarily hypnosis and truth serums.

A Dr. Noe was named in a declassified document from Edgewood Arsenal, MD. Dr. Noe coauthored a publication for the chemical Corps in 1949 entitled “Some relationships of structure to biological activity in the nitrogen mustards and related compounds.” May be found in Row 3; File Cabinet #19, Drawer #2, Command Historical Office, CBDCOM, Edgewood Arsenal, MD on page 48 under MUSTARD-19. I am still waiting on an appeal of a FOIA request to obtain more information on Dr. Noe.

In 1960 he became Chief of the Research and Development Component, in 1962 he became Deputy Chief of Technical Services Division, and 1966-1973 Chief of TSD.

A CIA declassified memo from May 5, 1955 states, “Post-hypnotic suggestions reiterated during several sessions of hypnosis have been known to endure for years. A skilled operator with a good subject can not only find out completely about a subject’s past; he can cause the subject to re-enact a recruitment, training, briefing, etc. Perhaps less obvious is the possibility of using regression to build a new identity, and in some degree, a changed personality.”

CIA Mori ID 144765, Subject: Report of trip to Minneapolis, Minnesota and Detroit, Michigan, for Artichoke Purposes. The documents says,

15. “On 18 and 19 December 1952, the writer engaged in a series of discussions with (line deleted) Detroit, Michigan, concerning ARTICHOKE and the possible use of (several words deleted) in connection with ARTICHOKE experimentation and research. (Deleted) is a fully cleared consultant to this Agency.

16. In order to clarify and shorten explanations, some of the conversations with (deleted) are reduced to the question and answer form below:

Q: When we last talked (early summer 1952), you felt that deleted was an ideal place to carry out certain experimentation along lines of interest to us.”

Because of the hypnotism, I did not remember at that time any of the experiments that Dr. Sidney Gottlieb had performed on me. This CIA document Mori ID 140394 dated February 25, 1952, seems to clarify that this was what they were aiming at.

“Q: How far do you think individuals could be controlled by hypnosis?

A: Post-hypnotics will last twenty years and will be very strong if re-enforced from time to time.”

This activity is outlined in Book I of the Church committee report, 388-389. (See Appendix A, 68-69).
