Mr. J. Edgar Hoover Director of F.B.I. Washington , D.C .

Dear Mr. Hoover.

Enclosed is a copy of a Lecture sent to me from Detroit . I think it is the most fascinating Research ever made.

In your busy life you may not have encountered it, so I thought I would send you a copy. Why doesnt the Government come out with the truth about Unidentified Objects? Everybody seems to accept the Saurure as a matter of course and accept it.
