SUBJECT:
WHITE HOUSE INQUIRY RE
~IDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS (UFO)
Stanley Schneider of the Office of Science and
Tedhnology, White House , telephonically contacted me today to
inquire as to the Bureau ' s procedure for handling information
received from the public or otherwise, relating to sightings
of UFOs.
He advised that Jody Powell of the President ' s sta ff
has raised the question as to whether or not there is any
coordination within the Executive Branch relating to information
concerning this subject .
He stated that the U. S . Air Force had
closed their investigation of these matters several years ago
and currently does nothing but refer such information to
appropriate local authorities .
I advised him that as far as the FBI is concerned
there appears to be no conceivable jurisdiction for us to oono,µct
any inquiries upon receipt of information relating to a UFO
sighting and , in the absence of some investigative jurisdiction
based upon the information furnished , that information would be
referred to the Department of the Air Force without any action
being taken by the Bureau.
He thanked me for the information and stated that if
any further contact was necessary he would call back .
