Sir I mention the above so that you will not think an idiot is writing. You seemingly do not know or utterly disregard the followin subject. I had hoped that you might make a statement before now on this subject. I have waited many years to see your opinion in print, but nothing of the sort has happened. I am speaking of the LFO's or unidentified flying objects before long and it is a matter of time you are going to be scooped so to speak on this subject. Sir I happen to know they exist . I have personally seen two of them. One of these sightings under low cloud cover in daylight. (I am not sure as to the cloud height). The other at prehaps two thousand feet altitude and eppx. one mile off. You may not be interested ? But I think this may be vital to the security of the United States and if it is vital I am sure that you are now familiar with and working on this problem. If I am correct one these things do land I am greatly con- cerned as to that kind of reception they might receive from the inhabitance of this country. I am convinced after a great use of thought that someone of your standing in this country should let the people know that is happening as regards these things.
