KEYHOE: I think the American people should write to their congressman and insist that open hearings be held by the Senate Committee... on the permanent committee on Government operations, which has been looking into this for six months.
WALLACE: An Air Force spokesman told us this last week, he said, "Members of the Senate Subcommittee have talked with us already and they have shown no interest in conducting any hearings on this issue."
KEYHOE: I talked with the chief investigator within the last two weeks, I gave him a lot of information and I gave him data on one case, where an airliner was sent to chase one of these things and the passengers kept in ignorance of it at that time.
That involves two government agencies, besides the Air Force, which has refused to release the report.
And I'll say this: if you were to get... if the Committee were to get Ruppelt, Major Fornay, several colonels, on that time, Major General Garland, who was on the project, there would be a big revelation because the Air Force is simply treating the American people like children.
They don't trust them with the facts.
WALLACE: You know here is an interesting, I think an interesting question, Major. The United States and Russia started sending satellites into the sky and we may be hitting the moon with a rocket soon, possibly Mars.
You believe that creatures from other space have space stations on Mars? What's going to happen when we start firing rockets at the moon or at Mars?
KEYHOE: That question has already been brought up. We expect to have a base on the moon within the next five years. It's possible that there is a base on there. I don't say that there's any proof of it. I...

WALLACE: One last question, Major Keyhoe: Have you ever seen a flying saucer?
KEYHOE: I've seen and tracked on and radar, but I take the word of about 800 of the best witnesses in this country and abroad.
WALLACE: But, you yourself have never seen a flying saucer?
KEYHOE: I've just been a reporter, and a careful one.
WALLACE: Thank you very much, Major Donald Keyhoe.
As you've just heard, the flying saucers controversy is deadlocked in contradictory statements and interpretation of facts.
As for Major Donald Keyhoe himself, like most of us, he's never seen a flying saucer, which may just make him like a mystic who's never seen a ghost, but one must give him credit, he has much faith.
In a moment, I'll bring you a rundown on next week's guest, one of the giants of the entertainment business.
