'Deair Mr. Bryant:
I have received your letter dated September 30, 
19^4, regarding UFO sightings. I am sorry to advise you 
that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has no 
information regarding the UFO sighting you describe in 
your letter, and, in fact, the FBI does not collect informa 
tion regarding UFO sightings in general. As you are 
probably aware, the FBI is the investigative arm of the 
United States Department of Justice* and is authorized to 
Investigate only those matters specifically delegated to 
it by Congress. UFO sightings are not such matters.
; In addition, our files contain no information
regirding the current residence or telephone number of 
Mrs. Lelah H. Stoker, mentioned in your BtWr.
