Port Allegany, Pa- November 18, 1947. Federal Bureau of Investigation, Pittsburgh, Pas Gentlemen: ‘gollowing the appearance in this town on November 6, 1947, of a Mre JoeNdppincott, Direstor of the Eastern Area, Red Cross, Pittsburgh, Pa., as “spéaker of the evening”, at the annual local Red Cross dinner, I was told by Dr-« H. E\\Cromwell, local practicing dentist, that in a personal conversation, llowing the dinner, Mre Lippincott told him that the “saucers” reported as seen in various parts of the country, were actuslly from Spain. He said that Mre Lippincott said that this had been ascertained by the Government in Washington, but that it was not being made known. He said that Mre Lippincott had been in Europe and inferred that he had been in Spain and knew conditions over there. Dre Cromwell is a man active in the Methodist Chruch and the local Protestant Mens Club, and it is easy to see how far this report can be spread. The fact that the Federal Government indorses the Red Cross makes a statement of an official representative of that organization almost indisputable. As a representative tha of the Federal Govermment and as a citizen interested in truth ard World peace and racial and religious harmony in our own country, I question the advisability of an accredited representative of the Red Cross giving out this information, even “off the reéord”. I thought you might be able to check with Mr. Lippin- cott or his organizatiam. Yours very truly, (Mree Mary {. eater, P.M.)
