Dear Mr. Kelley:

On March 26, 1975, a representative of the world wide offices of the Church of Scientology, David Gaiman, met with Jean Nepote, Secretary General of INTERPOL.

The purpose of that meeting was reports maintained by INTERPOL, regarding our Church and Founder, which are false and based upon conjecture. Mr. Nepote was given documents to indicate their falsity in the hope that the matter which has enjoined our organizations could be quickly and easily terminated.

It is in this same spirit that I am writing to you.

Mr. Nepote has promised to ask the appropriate national authorities in each country involved to authenticate the documents. In the United States, that will be the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

I have already met with James B. Clawson, Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, who is familiar not only with INTERPOL but with our request. It was he, in fact, who recommended the March 26 meeting. Therefore, I would like him to serve as the liaison to Mr. Nepote when the authentication is completed.

Since you can appreciate our desire to expedite this matter, I would like to meet with you this Monday, May 5th, at about 2 p.m. to present the documents in question. Should that time be inconvenient, another can be arranged as I have come to Washington, in part, to complete this matter. I can be reached at the above number and address.

Sincerely,

[signed]

Rev. Vaughn Young
