Your letter postmarked May 16, 1949, has been received and I want to thank you for sending me information concerning the matter you mentioned. It was indeed very thoughtful of you to report that data to this organization.
Sincerely yours,
John Edgar Hoover Director
NOTE: Correspondent saw a small object in the sky near the end of the day which took various shapes and through glasses appeared like a double bloom trailing something below it. She believes it might be a flying disk. In view of her nebulous information and as it was very possibly a weather balloon no further action is deemed necessary.
