a period of approximately three months.FLYING SAUCERS ARE “GOOD NEWS”The flying saucers are real; they are made not In Rusia or in Mars but in the United States; and when the U.S. Air Force sees fit to release Information on them It will be good mws. So declares Henry J. Taylor, well known Journalist and radio commentator. In the August Reader's Digest. The artlclo la Condensed from a broadcast.The saucers vary in size, Taylor says, from small white disks 20 Inches wide to big ones 250 leet across. Nearly all are round; some are flat and edged up like saucers, others are raised in the centre like a pk-. Some are guided, others are not. They emit no strewn of light or smoke, have no indication of a propelling mechanism, and no sound. They can stand stationary in the air, then dash off o right or left with Increasing speed Their function is an Important military secret.Nine out of ten reports of flying saucers are due to Imagination or confusion. Taylor states. But several have been substantiated. Nine flying disks, sighted over the Pacific Coast of America by United Airlines Captain E. J. 8mlth, were real. Five seen over the Cascade Mountains of Oregon were real. So were a hundred-foot saucer observed over New Mexico in April, 1949, and a 250-footer sighted over Madisonvllle, Kentucky, on January 7. 1948.The saucer development Is a big and expanding experimental project which has been progressing in the United States for three years. Taylor says. It has gone through three stages, reaching peaks in public observation In July. 1947. January 1948 and April 1950. The saucers have grown bigger with each phase.A flaming, cigar-shaped object about a hundred feet long, reported over Montgomery. Alabama, by two reliable Airlines pilots, was real too. the author Rtates. But It was not cJgar-shapcd. nor was It a flying saucer. it was a U.6. Navy experimental fighter, “a great Jet airplane of incredible s|*ed ” Though nearly round, its extremely fast flight (another military secret! made It appear elongated and cigar-shaped to the human eye.Chances of finding a flying saucer are slight, because most are made of material which disintegrates In the air.
