Senator Goldwater was refused any information in this matter, along wit not being allowed to personally look inside of the alleged building. Before taking office as President, Jimmy Carter announced to the public that, if elected, he would give the American people the Government's information about UFO's. This did not happen, and Mr. Carter was given a complete run-around and I could tell you more was contacted by the Pentagon on the matter.

So, with this brief back-ground of information about me and about Gover ment participatiaz, the "challenge" I have mentioned would be to have you make inquiries at the highest levels of "officialdom" about what ou Government really knows, whether or not there ARE alien bodies located ANYWHERE, what happened to the crashed "flying saucers", where are the photo's takenby Air Force personnel through onboard gun cameras, and similar questioning. I am positive you would find that even you would be getting ageneral run-aroun and could not receive satisfactory answ
