   Memorandum for Mr. Ladd   
      
       mr. ________ also discussed this matter with Colonel L.  H. Forney   
   of MID.  Colonel Forney indicated that it was his attitude that inasmuch   
   as it has been established that the flying disks are not the result   
   of any Army or Navy experiments, the matter is of interest to the   
   FBI.  He stated that he was of the opinion that the Bureau, if at   
   all possible, should accede to General Schulgen's request.   
      
   SWR:AJB   
      
   ADDENDUM   
      
   I would recommend that we advise the Army that the Bureau does not   
   believe it should go into these investigations, it being noted that   
   a great bulk of those alleged discs reported found have been pranks.   
   It is not believed that the Bureau would accomplish anything by going   
   into these investigations.   
      
                                             DML   
      
   (Clyde Tolson)-I think we should do this.  (Dated 7/15)   
      
   (J.  Edgar Hoover)-I would do it but before agreeing to it we must   
   insist upon full access to discs recovered.  For instance in the SW   
   case the Army grabbed it and would not let us have it for cursory   
   examination.

   DATE OF DOCUMENT 7/30/1947   
   (B) FLYING DISCS-The Bureau, at the request o f the Army Air Force   
   intelligence, has agreed to cooperate in the investigation of flying   
   discs.  The Air Forces have confidentially advised that it is possible   
   to release three or more discs in odd numbers, attached together by   
   a wire, from an airplane in high altitudes and that these discs would   
   obtain tremendous speed in their descent and would descend to the earth   
   in an arc.  The Army Air Forces Intelligence has also indicated some   
   concern that the reported sightings might have been made by subversive   
   individuals for the purpose of creating a mass hysteria.

       You should investigate each instance which is brought to your   
   attention of a sighting of a flying disc in order to ascertain whether   
   or not it is a bonifide sighting, an imaginary one or a prank.  You   
   should also bear in mind that individuals might report seeing flying   
   discs for various reasons.  It is conceivable that an individual might   
   be desirous of seeking personal publicity, causing hysteria, or playing   
   a prank.   
      
       The Bureau should be notified immediately by teletype of all   
   reported sightings and the results of your inquiries.  In instances   
   where the report appears to have merit, the teletype should be followed   
   by a letter to the Bureau containing in detail the results of your   
   inquiries.  The Army Air Forces have assured the Bureau complete   
   cooperating in these matters and in any instances where they fail   
   to make information available to you or make the recovered discs available   
   for your examination, it should promptly be brought to the attention   
   of the Bureau.   
      
       Any information you develop in connection with these discs should   
   be promptly brought to the attention of the Army through your usual   
   liason channels.

   Dear Mr.  ___________ _   
           Your letter of July 16th has been received.   
       For your information, the investigation of Unidentified Flying   
   Objects is not and never has been a matter that is within the   
   investigative jurisdiction of the FBI.  I can assure you the photograph   
   you mentioned does not represent employees of this Bureau and the   
   FBI has never had custody of an occupant from a foreign planet.   
      
       Enclosed are some booklets pertaining to our activities which I   
   hope you will enjoy reading.   
      
                                             Sincerely yours,   
      
      
                                             John Edgar Hoover   
                                             Director

   Story of the FBI   
   NOTE: Correspondent is not identifiable in Bufiles.  The Bureau has   
   had other inquiries concerning this photograph.  The article which   
   appeared in a recent issue of this magazine purported to be an actual   
   report of unidentified flying objects and has been brought to the   
   attention of the Bureau previously.  In view of the fictional aspects   
   of the material and our relations with "Real" magazine no contact   
   was made with the magazine regarding the representation of FBI Agents.
