Dear Mr Bailey,
Excuse me please if I misspelled your name , but
I never saw it in writing.
On May 5th at 2. 15 P.M. of this year I paid you
a visit in the F.B . I.offices, where I told you details on
~ 9e_d§.in subject yo11 will surely remember . At tpe end of
the conversation I .E,r,grn_1sse<!_ you no~ ~,2._t~l!E, e.bo11t it un­
til_I had receive1 ..Y!.Q.,rd trorn x.,01.!., wheth~ gr po! t;he ryro per
authorities were interested. It was taken ~or granted that
a few months might elapse before the answer could be given.
Five months have :,:>asse.d by since then, and as
the subject has now become active in Euro::,e, I am really
anxious to go a,'1ead with it, I have ofco11rse tried to
check the theory on each aspect and while doine so I
found various complementary as well as fundamental details.
I have now reached the point however where I
would like to discuss the who7.e w'"ith an ex')ert and!
wguld ther~or cerla1nly auryr.eciate to know-whether I have
to consider O.!:!!, a_g_reernent on comolete silence~§ still
being valid and necessary or not
It migh"""t be that you are too busy to be able to
'2
write to me of that the authorities are not interested. As
)
it is not my intention to bother you too much with it, i
w~ll take it that t1;_,ere is no lonBe~a.EL_~cessity for
silence on ~y part ~f I do not _!e~eiv~ any in~ot~ation to
the contraryoy the end of this month.
~y ~his proposition I do not intend to force an
issue bu.t I would like to discuss a subject like this with
scientists friends of mine , which I cannot_do as long as I
am bound b3t my promise to you.
