Communication regarding Leon Davidson and space message inquiry

This teletype message, dated December 20, 1957, documents a recent interaction with an individual named Leon Davidson in Chicago. Davidson, who was attending a scientific meeting, is currently preparing an article for a space-related publication. His primary objective is to obtain a translation of a specific 'space message' and to identify the station responsible for the transmission, with the intent of proving the message is a hoax. Failing that, Davidson requested authorization to reproduce government letterheads in his article to illustrate what he perceives as government avoidance regarding his inquiries, noting that he has not received a satisfactory response from the government or ATIC for nearly a year. The authors of the teletype report that they advised Davidson that using government letterheads would be imprudent and suggested he refrain from doing so without express permission from the relevant agencies. Davidson reportedly accepted this advice. The authors describe Davidson as calm and pleasant, yet very determined in his pursuit of information. The message concludes with a recommendation that headquarters and ATIC take over the matter to address Davidson's concerns, emphasizing the importance of maintaining their agreement to communicate with him.
