FBI file 62-HQ-83894, section 5

Department of War · 209 pages · text by GLM-OCR

This section of FBI file 62-HQ-83894 collects Bureau correspondence on flying disks from 1949 and 1950. Most of it concerns a letter to Walter Winchell, passed on by Ernest Cuneo, from Peter Camerlon Jones, who said he saw a top-shaped silver object in the mountains near Los Angeles in August 1947. Los Angeles agents could not find Jones, and Hoover suggested the letter might be a prank. The file also holds a Navy intelligence report on 6 or 7 discs seen over southern Oregon on 27 May 1949, plus letters from members of the public about Chicago and Toronto.

Read from the scan by GLM-OCR; expect the odd misread word.

I do not believe this is horse feathers so much as I did in the drawings sent you sat. Ubalsty said on the snow with runners on this sancer little a shed centrifugal force will pull hers at a hell of speed. The jets are used on little off there is wheels on the sancer there are wheels they are pulled up into places in the sancer from the inside and some how or other a piece covers the spot on the outside the drawing shows that but I cannot figure out how it done from the inside of the sancer. How I believe this is all the done I can give you on them. Ubalsty said the big sancers are oblong fors and oft but round in the middle — just as the round sancers are something little this. You know what I mean only I cannot draw it.

I will mail this from Ulster monday 10 1950 and trust you will put this into the right hands
