In the year 1955 we established communication with the French citizen then living in Toulouse (France), Mr Jacques Cadot, to whom we sent three handwritten reports, interviewing him by telephone on two occasions, after he had written in a daily newspaper a monographic article on "soucoupes volantes" (flying saucers).

This gentleman, after showing himself surprised and interested in the first days, ended by confessing to us that he believed us to be "a foreigner" with a good sense of humour who wished to "make fun of him and pretend (feindre) to be a pilot of those craft, taking advantage of his good faith".

He made a severe criticism of our short account of our economic system on UMMO, asserting that xxxxxxxxxx what we call XANMMO AYOUBAA was a fantastic project worthy of a "Science Fiction" novel.

Well then: for some days now, the press of several countries has included among its news the information that the establishment xxxxxxxxxx of a Network of Computers in the territory of the United Kingdom of Great Britain is being studied.

We congratulate you, men of the Earth. We fervently hope that the evolution of the Humanity of this Planet will follow a path similar to ours.

We also hope that your analytical spirit will be able to discern between the fantasies of the authors of fantastic novels and testimonies backed by an abundance of documentary references.

We enclose with this report a selected cutting from the publication issued in the [handwritten: «Spanish»] language in [handwritten: «Madrid»]

Newspaper [handwritten: «YA»] dated [handwritten: «18 Nov.»] 1966 [handwritten: «page 5»]

which mentions the said British project

In that situation, and although until then we had only established prudent and sober relations with some men of science and a few cultural bodies in certain countries (we do not hide that with logical incredulity on their part), we received formal instructions to begin contacts with the Spaniard Mr Sesma Manzano.

His first reactions of reticence confirmed, of course, that he was not an excessively credulous man, although we maintain the point of view mentioned in second place. Only when we provided him with a series of proofs was his natural distrust overcome.

At present my Superior in Spain holds frequent telephone conversations with this gentleman, and I periodically dictate a series of reports on the civilisation of UMMO, using the typing services of a faithful compatriot of yours whom we shall in due course authorise to bear witness to the relations held with us.

In reality, these reports were intended for a group of interested persons whom Mr Sesma has guided and directed for some years.

Although we reasonably fear that his initiative of bringing these documents to public light will not give the results he would wish, we refrain from curbing his enthusiasm.

We are sorry that Mr Sesma Manzano will regard what we are going to say as what you call "a jug of cold water", but if we had the vaguest suspicion that such revelations could make an "impact" on the mass of readers or spread out of all proportion, generating a collective psychosis with serious consequences, we would be obliged to curb that improbable popular enthusiasm with our silence, for reasons that Mr Sesma himself has been able to verify in our writings.

YU 1, daughter of AIM 368, to whom all the members of this UMMO vanguard on EARTH are subordinate, sends you her cordial greeting. So she asks me to do.
