In public and in private the man infers that he is a
former member of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
t~ ;J1is true? UJ t}S t7 '
Thie "Dr . ~tranges ( Doetor of What? -- hae never been
explained.)i s ry careful of hie wording, in speech and in
writing, inferri g many things, yet doing ao in a manner that
will allow him to deny them, if necessary.
He quite skilfully avoids answering directly to direct
questions.
Al l of t his ie done in a manner indicating that he ie
rather careless of the truth, yet the sort of thing that is
pretty hard to pin down.
"Dr . 11 Stranges has coupled hie "Flying Saucers " with a
religious theme in such a manne r that he is invited to occupy
the pu l pit in churches around the land.
It is my pe rsonal opinion that the man i s using the churches
f or his private g~in. (Tax free, no doubt.)
I am not aware that he has broken the law in any res pect,
but from a moral stand point, he is, I feel, worse than a law
breaker.
He will be coming again to my church in a fe'IV v•eeks, and
on the occasion of his other visit t o ld several quite patent
lies.
If t his man is either by law, or morally, a fraud I am
quite opposed to his a ppearance in my church.
I would appreciate kno~ing if he is, in t ruth, a former
member of your organization.
