Documents / FOIA release
This Central Intelligence Agency file, dated April 1963, contains financial and travel records for Project MOSES, run by CIA General Counsel Lawrence R. Houston. It includes requests for advances of funds for a Project MOSES agent, along with domestic travel vouchers for trips from Washington, D.C. to New York City, West Palm Beach and Miami in March and April 1963. The records cover airfare for Houston and two agents, per diem and operational expenses. Receipts for the operational expenses were not obtained, for security reasons.

If advances have been made to third parties, enter the total of such advances outstanding at the beginning of the accounting period on line 1a. 2. If more space is required to explain receipts, prepare receipt form, number and attach hereto. In every case, completely identify the source of receipts. 3. Attach a voucher for each expenditure and assign a number thereto in numerical sequence. The voucher may be the receipt obtained from the payee. When a receipt is not obtained, prepare a certificate and attach as a voucher.

If advances to third parties are outstanding at the close of the accounting period, attach an itemized list and enter the total on line 3a. 4. Final credit will not be given for disbursements which are advances to be accounted for. When accounting for advances are obtained, list as expenditures or refund of cash, as appropriate. 5.
