DIRECTOR, FBI SAC, SEATTLE RE: REPORTS ON ALLEGED SIGHTING OF SUBMARINES, 6-16-54 PARACHUTE LANDINGS, FLASHING LIGHTS, ETC. ESPIONAGE OSI advises us that they have no interest whatsoever themselves in connection with these matters and that Operations of the Air Force doesn't even advise them. Colonel 8S. W. RAYNOR, District Commander, OSI, states that there is an evaluation at Wright-Patterson Field where the data is correlated, that the reports are handled from the Air Force here to that point in 4 routine fashion and that OSI gives no credence whatsoever to it because they have never had any previous experience of any kind as to anything arising out of the situation. There is attached hereto a copy of a communication marked "CONFIDENTIAL" requesting data concerning the situation as well as several recent publications, some of which are issued by the Air Force itself. It is the opinion of Colonel RAYNOR that the releases are a poor thing and create mass hysteria, but he says he has nothing whatsoever to do with the situation.
