A report would have been sent to UMMO, at the end of the fifties, presenting an alarming report and foreseeing an inevitable increasing of the risks, due to the erratic growing of the technology and its destructive effects. Whatever would have been the followings, it seemed to them useful to ameliorate their knowledge of the men of the Earth, by getting in touch with some of them, what they would have done. There would have been then a network of contactees in twenty countries with, in average, according to a Ummit report of the eighties, of four to twenty persons. These people would have been chosen among the middle classes. They had to be "intelligent enough so that the reading of the reports provoke a minimum reaction in their encephal", but not too much as they had to be efficiently controlled. Alone, the indiscretion of the father Guerrero and the publication of the book of Sesma revealed the size of the manipulation. The funniest story is the one of this journalist Marhuenda, a very nice guy, by the way. He had a radio broadcast. One day, at the period of Christmas, he had a thought "for all these extraterrestrians which were on Earth, far from their planet of origin, and which were certainly home-seek". Glad, our Ummits wrote to him. A police officer named Guarrido tried to penetrate the network and to reach the source of the information. This was the time of Franco. Guarrido thought that they were foreign spies. But the Ummits convinced him very easily and he became one of their most docile collaborators. To all, they asked for confidentiality. This order has been quite strictly followed, except in Spain. The deal was easy: they said "if you chat, we will stop sending letters". 146
