SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET
May 1, 1967 - September 30, 1968


Editor's notes:

1. This section of the proposal (the last three pages) was untitled in the original; we have provided a title for clarity.

2. The original includes a number of handwritten annotations to the typed figures. Many of these annotations are illegible and most have no apparent relationship to the bottom line.

3. To resolve the uncertainty as to the relevance of these annotations, we placed the typed numbers in a spreadsheet to see if the bottom line (which showed no annotations) had been affected by inclusion of any of the annotations. It had not; the bottom line was the result of adding up the original typed figures.

*To equip second investigating team and complete equipping of the first team.

**Trips calculated as follows:

  $200   average air ticket cost
  80   per diem @ $16 average 5 days
  80   car rental
 
 
  $360   (for first team member; $280 [less car rental] for second member)

Estimate 1 trip per week for investigating teams through June 30, 1968 (two members per team):

50 trips x (360 + 280) = $32,000 ($18,700 in period 1, $13,300 in period 2, -0- in period 3)

Other trips:

Period 1 - 25 trips @ $300 (average $40 car rental): $7,500;
Period 2 - 17 trips @ $300 = $5,100;
Period 3 - 8 trips = $2,400

R.J. Low: Proposed trip to Europe in Period 1 - $1,250
