FBI files on L Ron Hubbard


FROM THE FILES OF THE FBI #118

STANDARD FORM NO. 64
Office Memorandum - UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT

TO : Director, FBI

DATE: May 22, 1953

FROM : SAC, Detroit (80-90)

SUBJECT: THE HUBBARD DIANETIC RESEARCH
FOUNDATION, INCORPORATED
[BLACKED OUT]

[SHORT PARAGRAPH BLACKED OUT]

People who were bothered with mental problems were being treated by this organization with the use of an apparatus involving two beer cans which were attached to an electric meter somewhat resembling a lie detector machine [LINE BLACKED OUT]

It is noted in one of the enclosures [BLACKED OUT] that members of the organization are going to be fingerprinted and that an affidavit was to be obtained from each member which was to be filed with the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Washington, D.C.

In another enclosure it is noted that the organization was stopping dianetic processing within the boundaries of the District of Columbia, evidently at the request of the United States Attorney. This would indicate that perhaps the Bureau may have had some information concerning the Hubbard Foundation contained within the Bureau files in Washington, D.C.

Indices of the Detroit Division are negative on the organization.

For the benefit of the Detroit Office [BLACKED OUT] it is requested that the Bureau files be reviewed and any pertinent information relative to the Hubbard Dianetic Research Foundation be furnished to the Detroit Office.
