In short. I'd like to have you continue to aeep in oontaot
with me, and relay to me anyth1r.g furt!l'! r you learn.
In turn, I'll give you the whole story, 'Which I 'm just about
ready to break (not in the newspa:;ers). And ir it was as
dangerous as _you seem to suspect , I ' o afraid I ' d have been
a oorpsa long agoJ
But . and this is all you need remember. those disks ar o not
red oorpusoles in 1our eyec~11 1 and they are not something
we can forget about nth an ostrich in the sand attitude.
ie•ve got to solve them , publio hysteria or no. AR for that
hysteria~ if laughing is hysteria. that ' s all the ~ysteria
I've noticed :
By all means, I want to thank you f or the Y.crk y ou •ve done.
You know :1ow- business , and you handled it like a major .
But I'm hoping /OU do the easy part now and get that report
on paper.
A oheok for your June 24 artiole is going out to you.
Sincerely yours,
R. A. Palmer
