Office Memorandum                         UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT

TO: DIRECTOR, FBI                             DATE: March 22, 1950

FROM: GUY HOTTEL, SAC, WASHINGTON

SUBJECT: FLYING SAUCERS
         INFORMATION CONCERNING


The following information was furnished to SA [blanked] by 
[                       blanked                          ]
[blanked]

An investigator for the Air Forces stated that three so-called
flying saucers had been recovered in New Mexico. They were 
described as being circular in shape with raised centers, approxi-
mately 50 feet in diameter. Each one was occupied by three bodies 
of human shape but only three feet tall, dressed in metallic cloth 
of a very fine texture. Each body was bandaged in a manner similar 
to the blackout suits used by speed flyers and test pilots.

According to Mr. [blanked] informant, the saucers were found in New 
Mexico due to the fact that the Government has a very high-powered 
radar set-up in that area and it is believed the radar interferes 
with the controling mechanism of the saucers.

No further evaluation was attempted by SA [blank] concerning the above.
