Reference is made to the letter addressed to "Mr. Robert Outler, Washington 25, D. G.," by Mr. Detroit 11, Michigan, in which advised that he might have some information "about the rocket in Texas." He desired to know to when he could speak in this regard.

Mr. was interviewed on November 7, 1952, at which time he advised that his name is that he is also known as that he was born on February 19, 1926, in Warsaw, Poland, and that he was a German prisoner of war from May, 1942, until the Summer of 1945. He advised that he arrived in New York on May 2, 1951, as a displaced person, Allen Registration Number. He advised that during 1944, while he was a German prisoner of war, he observed a vehicle described as circular in shape, seventy-five to one hundred yards in diameter, and approximately fourteen feet high. He stated the vehicle was observed to rise vertically to a height sufficient to clear a fifty-feet wall and that it moved slowly horizontally a short distance out of view which was obstructed by trees. He stated that the engine of a tractor failed to operate during this period and that the engine failed on one other occasion when a high-pitched whistle noise was heard in the area. During the interview, he spoke in a rational manner with no indication of mental instability.
