NOTE: Subject of radiogram from [BLACKED OUT] is probably L. Ron
Hubbard, on whom the Bureau has received numerous inquiries and
complaints concerning the Hubbard Dianetic Research Foundation,
Inc., the Hubbard Association of Scientologists International and
the Academy of Scientology, all organizations with which Hubbard
has been connected. In a divorce suit in 1951 his wife accused him
of insanity and competent medical advisors recommended he be
committed to a sanitarium for psychiatric observation and treatment
of paranoid schizophrenia. Previous correspondence in this matter
handled Domestic Intelligence Division. (Bufile 62-94080) File in
62-94080 "Scientology."
