Summary: The document details a financial review conducted by the Office of Finance under the Director of Finance, Thomas B. Hale, regarding payments to Howard Hunt between July 1964 and June 1973. Searches were performed across multiple CIA accounts, including Madrid Station, JMAVE, and Washington Office records, but no payments to Hunt were found except for a $1,600 expenditure in 1966 for a sensitive operation. During Hunt’s non-official cover assignment (July 1965–September 1966), a bank account was established at Chase Manhattan Bank to receive non-salary payments, with total deposits of $30,000 accounted for through travel and transportation expenses. The Finance Office noted unusual operational expenditures and recommended further investigation into potential projects or charges related to Hunt’s activities.
