FRANK EDWARDS from his office at the DuBois Company.
GUNDERMAN continued that he believes STRINGFIELD is now
afraid to proceed too much for fear the Air Force will in
some way stop his operations and that EDWARDS ' warning to
STRINGFIELD was after the issuing of the October 1, 1954,
11Newsletter 11 which contained the article about STRINGFIELD' s
interview with Colonel 0 1MARA.
At the same time, GUNDERMAN
reported that STRINGFIELD, in talking about the possibility
that the Air Force might stop his operations, made a state­
ment to the effect that, "The Air Force can't do anything
to me .
I'm claiming saucers are interplanetary."
GUNDERMAN continued in his letter that another point
which may or may not be of interest is the fact that the
DuBois Company copywriter, HERBERT E ·r-CLARK, 4974 Stratbmore
Drive , Cincinnati , is a close friend 6f STRINGFIELD and is
interested in STRINGFIM.D 1 s organization.
Ha identified
CLARK as about 25 years of age and a graduate of Ohio Wesleyan
University where CLARK c aims to have been a member of an
inter-racial social college fraternity.
GUNDERMAN said he
noticed that CLARK often brings up such subjects as the
falseness of religion, that atomic and hydrogen bombs may be
the cause of bad weather, and that colored people shouldn 1 t
be discriminated against.
At the same time CLARK is active
in the Methodist Church and in the Cincinnati Civil Defense
organization.
GUNDERMAN advised that he was furnishing the foregoing
information because he thought that possibly the real
purpose of the Civilian Research, Interplanetary Flying
Objects organization might be to gather bits of information
about a very secret u. s. Air Force Development Project.
My letter of 6/8/54 in referenced matter concerning
TRUMAN BETHURUM on pages 4 and 5 contains information re­
garding STRINGFIELD 1 s interest in BETHURUM and that the
indices of this office at that time contained no information
