Flying Saucer Review August 1983 [antikvár]

deal rosier could it finally be proved that such alien intelligences do not exist at all!). To conclude on a more personal note, it might at this point be right to add that the present Editor has known since June 1957 what the UFO entities are, but has been at some pains not to let this fact colour his contributions. For it will be better if each reader of our journal is provided with as much evidence as possible and then left to draw his own conclusions and decide for himself what is taking place in these momentous times.

ARE THE REASONS FOR THE COVER-UP SOLELY SC\Em\F\C7 Dr. Pierre Guérin, Maître de Recherche, CNRS (French National Council for Scientific Research) (Translation from French) In FSR Vol.28, No.5 we gave Dr. Guérin's interesting and important Open Letter to an Impatient Ufologist, in which this top French scientist dwelt upon the fact that there is no way whatsoever in which the presence here of UFOs might be squared with our current scientific models of the Universe, nor indeed any likelihood in sight that this situation will necessarily ever change. In sum, Dr. Guérin attributed current scientific attitudes, and the official Cover-Up, to this state of affairs, and he could only counsel patience. The Open Letter was published in the summer of 1982, but by November of that same year. Dr. Guérin had already radically changed his tune and he had written the following article, which appeared in Lumieres Dans La Nuit No. 225/226 (March/April 1983). The reason for this dramatic change in Dr. Guérin's thinking is the fact that he has now made a study of the evidence relating to Cattle Mutilation.— EDITOR Introduction In a recent article of mine published here in LDLN. I developed the thesis according to which the official non-recognition of the reality of the UFOs derived in essence from the denials uttered by the scientists — denials of which the Governments would be obliged to take account even though those Governments might, for their part, possess presumptive evidence for the existence of the UFOs. Let us put it more suc-cindy: 1 have long imagined the following scenario: General de Gaulle — or, if you like — Monsieur Mit-terand, is the elected occupant of the Supreme Office in France. He summons such and such a university figure in the realm of the Natural Sciences in order to ask for his opinion regarding the scientific policy that it would be best to carry through in the country. At the end of the interview, the President (who doesn't
