C. x Atta: Mr. Leland S, McCartay ts" Me : Mr. Leland S, McCartay . Managing Director 7 te ooo Dear Mr. McCarthy: Included are proper resumes of all organisations which I bave managed ar operated and financial statements to demonetrate their activity, I include the Dictributiou Center, Inc., although 1 do not manage it but gince my wife is a member of its board, None of these organisations has any debts of magnitude and have a good reputation for paying their bills when due. Tam married and bave three small children, 1 sm a member of the Explorer's Club and Capital Yacht Club. Washington, D, C. bas ‘been my home since boyhood. I gerved as an officer in the Navy during the war and wao honorably discharged. I attended high school at Wood- ward Prep here in D. C., and etudied nuclear physics at George Wash- ington University. After tho war on the G, }, Bill L attended school in California and received a Ph.D. from Sequoia University, an adult education school af the City of Los Angeles. 1 am primarily a writer of ecience fiction and technical material on the mind and am a registered miniater with the government. While companies using my name and work have existed in many states and may have good or bad credit, I have had no business connec- tin with them. They have often conceived it to be to their advantage to represent such connection and 1 bave had to take severe action from tims to time to deay thst cannection. I have found myself powerless to prevent the use of my neme and work in many ca 1 am not financially Fituated so ae to bear the vast legal expenses necessary to auch denial, matters is to re~ fund all donations or charges to anyone who believes he has chosen wrongly in joining the Church, This has no exceptions. ‘The principal business of the Church, beyond its services each Sunday and its Thureday night meeting, is the training of persons to handle people and congregations and to communicate better, The ministers of all allied state churches are trained by us. They are further trained ‘and usually ordained by their etate churches. We ordain locally only those we need in our work and only after a severe training program and thoroughBetter Business Bureau November 16, 1957 page 2 examination oa St, John and other religious matters. We charge about $1, 00 per hour for coaching and ordinarily contract for many hours at atime. The usual total fees charged persons for this training average out at less than $500 over long time periods, Counseling of private in- dividuals is done. by ministers for $10 par hour, All counseling is aimed at bettering their social respon Our goal as an organization is to incroase Man's cocialness, to improve his awareness and better his social conduct. Ao in any Church our beliefo are quite definite but unlike many, we force them on none, trust, Mr. McCarthy, that thie will improve your understanding of our activities and business standing. We spend $100, 000 a year with local bucinessmen and any will tell you we are good credit and prompt pay. It would be disturbing if the BBB of my own city, Washington, had only a vague notion of my activities after nearly half a century of good citizenship on my part, wy) s wa L, Roa Hubbard poo EnclosuresHubbard Aasociation of Sciontologists, International (Phoenix) Principal office: 1612 19th Bisest, N,W., Washington, D.
