invisible force-field kept the sightseers away. The hatch closed, and the machine stood isolated and alone. About 10.20, after the being had departed from the craft, there simultaneously appeared a stranger before the security guard at the street entrance to the White House. In perfect English, he asked to see President Ford. The being's request was refused. At approximately 10.21, a being ina flight suit was seen walking down the hallway to the Oval Room. A Secret Service man challenged the figure from behind. It continued on. A bullet from the gun of the President's guard apparently passed through the being without drawing blood. At the next instant, the stranger disappeared from the view of the Secret Service pursuer and silently passed through the locked and closed door to the Oval Room. Thereupon it stopped in front of President Ford, working alone at his desk. The startled President looked up at the figure of a tall, slim man with black hair, dressed in what appeared to be a trim flight-suit of silver-coloured jacket an pants tucked into calf-length boots. The being spoke calmly: "President Ford, I am sorry to intrude in such an unearthly way, but I have a message o great importance which must be told." He continued: "I am a scientist from Earth's sister planet Venus, which, regardless 0: Earth's scientific postulations, is inhabited by a people identical to those like yourself on Earth. But my mission in being here tonight concerns special knowledge which others in this solar system have elected to give the United States as our chosen custodian for planet Earth." Much of the alien's conversation remains classified, but some of the subject matter has been verified from executive sources. In general, the visitor spoke of the dawning of a new age for Earth in science, medicine and other wonders—but hinged his remarks with a single admonition: "Earth must first denounce nuclear war." The verdict of the outer-terrestrial stemmed from an inerrant moral law of the universe, which Earth nations had broken by splitting the atom to destroy their fellow men. Almost an hour later, the outer-terrestrial departed. Upon leaving, he placed on the President's desk a dull, silvery object of elliptical shape with rounded edges. The stranger called it a Venusian book—a gift from his planet to America. Simultaneously, several miles away, the being re-entered the vehicle in which he had come. It took off and joined the lights above, at which time the formation disappeared off the radar screens of the nation's capitol. This meeting between an outer-terrestrial being and a world leader is only one of the hundreds recorded since Earth's first nuclear explosion took place in 1945. American presidents alone have had a minimum of 60 visits. Earth has been watched by outsiders for at least 45 millenniums, and throughout the pre-Adamite civilisations. According to their spokesmen, they have witnessed this latest civilisation's advent of the railroad, the discovery of electricity, the aeroplane and auto, the rocket, the smashing of the atom and, lately, the fearful number of nuclear test explosions. And, finally, the uncontrolled aggressions of nations to make their own atomic bombs—with intentions to deploy them. As the President picked up the object and examined it that night of February 18, 1975, he called for Secret Service personnel. He also asked for the Secretary of State and scheduled a meeting of the General Staff to be held at the Pentagon as soon as possible to evaluate the disc. During the presidential dialogue, the extra-terrestrial being declared the US Air Force should learn the formula encased in the disc. Mr Ford had gingerly examined the object, but laid it down, perplexed as to why the alien should leave such an indecipherable thing as a parting gesture. Was it really a goodwill gift of science from another world, or was it some diabolical, destructive force that might enslave onlookers or destroy a city? Like his predecessors going back to Franklin D. Roosevelt, President Ford must have asked himself some startling questions about this peaceful outer- terrestrial invasion, whose spokesmen looked human and acted like friends, notwithstanding that their arrivals were always without warning or prior signal. And, in a broader sense, US officialdom was also asking, "Why all the sudden attention which Earth was now receiving after years of comparative isolation?" Even more perplexing questions were being asked by the suspicious military and science worlds. If these outer-terrestrials were so advanced scientifically and metaphysically, what did they know about the future destiny of mankind that made them suddenly want to share their knowledge with a single nation, the USA? Aside from these basic quandaries, other sobering judgments had already been established—which authorities had long hesitated to pass on, and for an understandable reason. Those claiming to come from our solar system and even beyond were often nearly identical to certain Earth races in appearance and in biological, functional and mental ways.
