STEVEN C. DAVIS, Private Investigator
605 Adams Ave, Moberly, MO 65270 (660) 263-0084
July 14, 2006
Mr. Alberto Gonzales, US Attorney General
U.S. Department of Justice -- INTERPOL
United States National Central Bureau
Washington, DC 20530
Dear Mr. Gonzales,
As an American citizen I wish to make an open and formal complaint to your office about other Americans and their agents murdering and threatening friends of mine in an effort to cover-up illegal money-laundering practices. This is very serious to me. I attended various college law/legal classes (1975-Northrop Institute of Technology; 1991-92-Utah Valley State College) to educate myself about my personal rights as a citizen of this great country. Boyd Packer and Gordon Hinckley are the leaders of this group of corrupt Americans. A key witness for me is US Senator Orrin Hatch. I initially got involved with Senator Hatch right after President Ronald Reagan fired Stephen M. Studdert (from Spanish Fork, Utah) from his White House staff. Back in 1985 my father and I were front-page news concerning a new gold mine discovery in southwest Nevada and I made unscheduled visits to the White House and Senator Hatch’s office back in the summer of that year. Right after the mysterious death of my Highland, Utah neighbor and close friend, Paul H. Dunn, I got Senator Hatch’s cousin, Glendon Hatch, to serve on the board of directors of Kanco Energy, Inc. back in 1998 to keep the channels open with him and others in the Washington DC area. My aunt, Maida Withers lives in Arlington, Virginia and has worked for years at George Washington University.
Interpol got involved against me back in October, 2001 when the Mormon Church Office Security falsely notified them that I was a terrorist, one connected to Muslim extremists. I am glad I have proven them wrong on many occasions since I met with an FBI agent on February 3, 2002 in Salt Lake City. On Wednesday I obtained the Case Number and found that the appointed judge is in a Breach of Contract litigation (STEVEN C. DAVIS, et al vs. H. CLYDE DAVIS FAMILY TRUST, et al) recently filed here in Missouri concerning my father’s desire to honor a very close friend of his, President Harold B. Lee, with a Non-Profit Memorial structure designed back in the 1970s when he was President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon Church). Since March, 2005 my father delayed his direct involvement here in Missouri because of his daily concern and protection of his sweetheart and my mother, Anna Belle Davis, from becoming another “victim” to what happened to President Lee and many others (many between 1998-2004). On Easter Sunday (12:30 am, April 16, 2006) I received a telephone call from Valerie Davis informing me that my father had just died in Provo, Utah in front of her husband and my brother, Wade Davis. When my father became a trustee of my 1969 family trust (Jared) on August 22, 2003 he confided that my brother, Wade, has been a spy for Gordon Hinckley since Wade was called by President Hinckley to be a bishop in Murray, Utah in the early 1980s. Dad told me not to trust my own brother.
The funeral services of my father had a Mormon Church general authority speak and rehearse how close Clyde Davis was to the present day church leaders. He wasn’t scheduled on the program, but was added because I spoke about the relationship my father and I had with church leaders since I was accidentally shot in the head by my father on October 29, 1960 south of Tucson, Arizona.
I attended another funeral (Paul H. Dunn) back in January, 1998 in Highland, Utah. Paul Dunn and I were neighbors for several years and continuously met because of drug problems with his twin adopted grandsons and my adopted son. Speakers at his funeral were US Senator Orrin Hatch and Mormon Church President Gordon Hinckley. Between 1960 to 1989 the Mormon Church spokesman to the youth was Paul H. Dunn. During most of the time Paul and I were neighbors he had been banished by President Hinckley, politically disfellowshipped through a controlled church court action against him as a cover-up to protect Apostle Boyd K. Packer. Two Kanco Board members attended the funeral with me, Joseph K. Stumph Jr. and Dick McLellan and observed how the Church Security had me under constant surveillance because my father and I had successfully sued Zions bank in 1993 and discovered fraudulent dealings by Boyd Packer and others as Zions bank board members against us. Our legal action sustained Paul Dunn and his beliefs of innocence in his own life. Knowing Paul the way I did, he would have been ashamed of the PR sham conducted at these services. He had gone through “hell” the last nine years of his life because of these corrupt church leaders.
In 1997 I commenced to aggressively seek re-opening an FBI official inquiry and have since requested assistance from the US Justice Department in a December, 1973 murder investigation in Salt Lake City. There have been fourteen mysterious deaths of individuals who were connected to my father and myself, commencing with the unexpected death of Paul H. Dunn. Each of these individuals was directly or indirectly connected to a successful litigation which involved my father and me when we sued Zions First National Bank in March, 1993. Since the filing of that law suit this bank has waged a character assassination campaign against me because we had proof of direct involvement by Gordon Hinckley, Neal Maxwell, Tom Perry, Boyd Packer and others against us as bank executives in a fraudulent transaction. President Hinckley served on this bank board between 1968 (with Harold B. Lee) until his resignation in 1990, after President Ezra Taft Benson authorized an automatic signature machine process on all Zions bank transactions dealing with funds of the Mormon Church (profit and non-profit entities), involving billions of dollars world-wide. President Lee had dissolved the key Utah entity involved in these banking transactions, the Corporation of the President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints on November 19, 1973 (a 1923 Utah corporate sole). We suspected this action was the reason for his murder. It was in 1997 when I got the State of Utah to approve the refilling and operation of a 1984 Utah Public Company, Kanco Energy, Inc. and Paul Dunn was excited about becoming a stockholder and participating in mining activities which involved his long time trusted friend, Clyde Davis (both were LDS Institute Directors).
On Sunday, November 4, 1973 President Harold B. Lee spent several hours in the Salt Lake Temple praying to resolve church leadership problems and family matters. He believed he was surrounded by evil men. He was inspired to give a “warning” at the conclusion of his home ward (Federal Heights) Fast & Testimony Meeting:
“…By way of testimony I want you to know that I know that God lives, that Jesus is the Christ and our Redeemer, and he is at the head of this Church; I am not. I know that he operates in all the affairs of this church and I say this by way of testimony that you may know that I know he lives. (after a long pause) I say this to you by way of a serious warning that I also know that the adversary lives and operates in the affairs of man. And he is determined to cause a downfall of men. If he can’t get to us, he will try to get to those closest to us, for he is in a mighty battle with the work of the Savior. And I must tell you these words of warning. So keep close to the Lord. Don’t be discouraged. The Lord will take care of his own. If you are prepared, you need not fear, if you are on the Lord’s side.” Fifteen days later President Lee dissolved a fifty year old Corporate Sole entity with the State of Utah which he believed was evil and corrupt. Five weeks later he is dead.
In March, 2005 Anna Belle Davis almost died several times due to the wrong prescription drug given her during a simple hip operation at the same LDS Hospital where President Lee mysteriously died the day after Christmas in 1973. As a geologist my father knows what happens when Potassium Chloride or Potassium Cyanide is added in an IV by a doctor or orally taken – a non-traceable instant heart attack. He feared the same might happen to his wife of 61 years. We reviewed this matter on March 21, 2006 in Provo, Utah and how dangerous it is to be in a hospital controlled by corrupt individuals. In April my father informed me that my mother had several serious health problems caused by her stay at the LDS Hospital and medical care from employees of Intermountain Health Care, Inc. (formerly wholly-owned by the Mormon Church).
Since December 26, 1973 and up and until March 21, 2006 (over 32 years) I would privately meet with my father and discuss how various individuals he and I would get involved with would mysteriously die after they agreed to professionally work with us in various capacities. These individuals were:
(1) President Harold B. Lee, Salt Lake City, Utah (December 26, 1973, 74 years old)
(2) Hubert B. Layne, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida (December 24, 1985, financial partner with Clyde since the 1950s including the staking of the Golden Age and Golden Eagle mining claims by myself in September 1978 for Kelly Minerals, Inc. a Nevada corporation)
(3) Paul H. Dunn, American Fork, Utah (January 9, 1998, 73 years old) a very close family friend since the 1950s. My neighbor and friend in Highland, Utah (same ward)
(4) Dr. Richrd Vetterli PhD, Provo, Utah (September 13, 1999, 68 years old) Kanco Board Member with Glendon Hatch, a book author and BYU professor (since 1980)
(5) Name withheld - Mormon Church Security Guard and client to Kanco’s attorney, Paul J. Young, Salt Lake City, Utah (2000) who witnessed fraudulent banking transactions
(6) Joseph K. Stumph Jr., Salt Lake City, Utah (December 26, 2000, 64 years old) Kanco Board Member & my partner
(7) Alan Barnes, Salt Lake City, Utah (January 2, 2001, 64 years old) He was interviewed by the FBI during the Salt Lake Olympic Committee bribery criminal investigation & cousin to Kanco Director/Officer Carma Crowther Davis (son-in-law to Gordon Hinckley)
(8) Jeffrey H. Hubbard, Houston, Texas (October 29, 2001) He was the attorney for David Cade, who had a successful jury trial case against his former employer, Zions bank in 2000. Cade hired me in August, 2001 as a Private Investigator to assist him in Utah legal malpractice (son of former Utah Governor Rampton, bribed).
(9) Harold E. Davis, Denver, Colorado Airport (November 16, 2001, 64 years old) youngest brother to Clyde Davis and his partner in many transactions
(10) Pat Westphal, Las Vegas, Nevada (2002, 64 years old) corporate officer & director of International Star, Inc. who hired Clyde Davis as their geologist on Arizona properties.
(11) David McOmber, Orem, Utah (February 1, 2003, Kanco Officer in the 1980s) traveled with Clyde Davis and Pat Westphal to the Arizona mining claims
(12) Douglas E. Johnson, I-70 near Greenriver, Utah (February 3, 2003, 50 years old) He was the Utah Deputy State treasurer who hired Kanco attorney Paul Young and myself. I won a court verdict against him in Fall, 2001 for fees owed me.
(13) Lamond R. Mills, Las Vegas, Nevada (February 25, 2004, 64 years old) former US Attorney for Nevada (President Reagan nominated him) He was the Nevada attorney for Kanco stockholders in the recovery of federal mining claims
(14) Neal A. Maxwell, Salt Lake City, Utah (July 21, 2004, 78 years old) former Zions bank board member who resigned because Clyde and I were suing this bank and uncovered evidence connecting him with Gordon Hinckley against us.
Two of the key suspects for the murder of President Lee were Boyd Packer and Gordon Hinckley back in 1973. Kanco Board Member, Dr. Melvin Fish PhD, (with Glendon Hatch and Dr. Vetterli) professionally assisted through many counseling sessions the Head Nurse in charge at the LDS Hospital, Nola Hunt (Black) RN who witnessed the unwarranted cardiac arrest and death of President Lee. She remembers seeing these Mormon apostles at the hospital. She was also interviewed by the FBI and years later met with me. L Brent Goates, President Lee’s son-in-law was a former administrator at this hospital. In 1975 Mr. Goates was called by President Lee’s replacement to move to California and be a Mormon mission president for three years. Boyd Packer was the “understudy” of President Kimball in all dealings with Native Americans. During this time, President Spencer W. Kimball had his own biography printed by Deseret Book (wholly owned by Deseret Management Corporation, incorporated by Hinckley in 1974) and prevented Brent Goates from publishing President Lee’s biography, HAROLD B. LEE, Prophet and Seer while he was President of the Church. Finally in December, 1985, the month after President Kimball died (November 5, 1985) President Ezra Taft Benson personally approved this book to be printed (Bookcraft, Inc.). One of the first actions by President Benson was to minimize the importance the church had made concerning Native Americans. Boyd Packer was very upset with this movement and vowed to restore it. Sherri Dew wrote a President Benson biography in 1987. Two more Benson biographies were written in 1988. In 1999 Deseret Book acquired Bookcraft and since this date Brent Goates has been totally controlled by Sherri Dew, a person who wrote Mormon President Gordon B. Hinckley’s biography in 1997.
For years I attempted to communicate with the Harold B. Lee Family with extreme caution. I first met Bruce Goates (brother to Brent Goates) in 1978 when I was the State Director, Utah Department of Gerontology (Study of Aging) headquartered at the University of Utah Bruce was the chief psychologist at the Granite Community Mental Health Center. He sought me out because of my position. We became good friends and helped each other concerning mental problems with the aged. Bruce acknowledged that he agreed with his older brother that President Lee was murdered. I again established a relationship with Bruce Goates in 1990 when I hired Dr. Ralph Gant PhD and Dr. Eugene Buckner PhD (BYU Department of Psychology) both licensed psychologists concerning my litigation against Regional Representative/Utah Judge Pat B. Brian for legal malpractice in an adoption case in Salt Lake City. At the time of this litigation I was working with Apostle Richard G. Scott (I was a BYU Bishop called by President Benson) concerning mentally ill BYU students (350+) who believed that Mark Zambrano, a returned missionary who served in Argentina, was a reincarnated person from the Book of Mormon. His followers would go to the Provo Temple five times every week and had seven set prayers each day. They also practiced polygamy where Zambrano would perform marriages (secretly) in the Provo Temple with his followers and seal their marriages to many women. They believed they were above the civil laws of the land. They all believed they came from the City of Enoch (biblical city) through reincarnation. Bruce Goates shared several experiences he had witnessed during his work in Utah since he got married, but didn’t get his marriage sealed in a Mormon Temple. In the winter of 2002 I again met with Bruce Goates at his home in Carlsbad, California and rehearsed some key elements about our prior discussions. He was very depressed when I met him (his wife had died).
Back in 2003 I was ready to subpoena L. Brent Goates to testify before the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver, Colorado about his knowledge concerning the mysterious death of President Lee. President Lee’s November 19, 1973 document was a key evidence before the court. But the federal judges awarded me the right to sue the Corporation of the President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Utah State Courts.
Why would these above mentioned fourteen individuals die at such a young age? I believe thirteen were murdered because they could testify and legitimize our claim of Theft by Deception of many assets through covert (circumvention) and criminal activities by people associated with Zions First National Bank. It was in 1960 when the Mormon Church divested this bank as a wholly-owned entity and the bank entered into the federal reserve debt financing system. The Mormon Church almost went bankrupt in the 1960s. Because of this reason my father was hired in 1966 by the Mormon Church for fund raising. He was very successful in his endeavors to get people to donate assets.
To give you an example how important these men were for us, I will detail my relationship with the first victim, Paul H. Dunn (I have the same detailed information concerning all others). Through a meeting set up by my father back in 1995 Paul H. Dunn personally told Clyde Davis and me in a meeting at his Highland home that he was back in full fellowship within the Mormon Church (had been disfellowshipped). He was excited and endorsed our Cities of Commerce Project (http://www.citiesofpeace.com) which had been presented to him back in 1985 when Kanco Energy was front page news all over the world concerning a new gold mine discovery in Nevada. Clyde was one of the sellers of these federal mining claims to Kanco. In the meeting Paul claimed and suspected that Gordon Hinckley felt that he was a liability to the church because of some deliberate investigative reporting which had been done by former KSL television employee, Lynn Packer, back in October, 1989 when sixteen members of the Mormon Church Seventies Quorum were released, including himself. Paul Dunn believed Mormon Apostle Boyd Packer (Zions Bank board member) had cut a financial deal with his nephew and was feeding secret information to save his own neck from bad publicity. Lynn Packer was working for this wholly-owned Mormon Church television station when the Mark Hofmann story broke and was later fired because Lynn discovered that Gordon Hinckley had financially approved several purchases of Hoffman’s false documents. Publicly, Lynn Packer claimed he felt that his aggressive reporting on the Hofmann affair and his earlier work on the Grant Affleck Afco scandal played a role in his dismissal. Boyd Packer had received all the same benefits Paul Dunn received when both were working for Grant Afflect. My father commented that he thought Paul was the ‘escape goat’ and that they did what they did in 1989 to cover-up the various news scandals that involved Gordon Hinckley and other apostles because Paul was only a member of the Seventies Quorum and expendable!
I have first hand information about the Grant Affleck Afco Enterprises scandal because my Highland, Utah bishop was Steven Apple (an officer of Afco and is the one who blew the whistle against his employer, Grant Affleck). Bishop Apple’s counselor was Lee Kimball, President Spencer W. Kimball’s nephew. It was common discussion in the Highland, Utah neighborhood that fellow ward member, Paul H. Dunn was the person designated to cover-up the direct involvement of Boyd K. Packer in the Afco scandal. His brother, Stanley Kimball, was an executive for Huntsman Chemical and moved into my Highland subdivision and eventually became my Highland Second Ward Bishop. Stan worked very closely with my Stake President Stephen M. Studdert (Highland Second Ward home teacher to Paul H. Dunn) as part of the character assassination plot against Paul Dunn and me when Paul mysteriously died while at a routine medical check-up at the Intermountain Health Care American Fork hospital.
A Wall Street Journal article on Nov. 9, 1983, reported: '...Paul H. Dunn... whose church salary is $40,000 a year, was a director of Afco Enterprises, a real-estate venture until 1978. Afco collapsed four years later; and its owner, Grant C. Affleck, was recently indicted for mail fraud, securities fraud and bankruptcy fraud. Despite Mr. Dunn's 1978 resignation, records in the U. S. District Court civil suit here show that he continued to have ties with Afco until it entered bankruptcy proceedings in 1982.... and gave advice to directors after he resigned.... A few days before Afco entered bankruptcy proceedings, Mr. Dunn wrote a disgruntled Afco investor a letter calling Mr. Affleck, a fellow Mormon, 'fair and Christlike.' U. S. Attorney Brent Ward... says that about 650 investors lost over $20 million through Afco investments.'
Six years after the Wall Street article, Paul Dunn had been totally removed from any participation of Mormon Church and youth activities. He had been Disfellowshipped at a Highland, Utah Church Court. On February 16, 1991, the Arizona Republic newspaper published an article written by Richard R. Robertson which contained the following:
"SALT LAKE CITY -- Among Mormons, Elder Paul H. Dunn is a popular teacher, author and role model. As a prominent leader of the Church... for more than 25 years, he has told countless inspirational stories about his life:
"Like the time his best friend died in his arms during a World War II battle, while imploring Dunn to teach America's youth about patriotism.
"Or how God protected him as enemy machine-gun bullets ripped away his clothing, gear and helmet without ever touching his skin.
"Or how perseverance and Mormon values led him to play major-league baseball for the St. Louis Cardinals.
"But those stories are not true.
"Dunn's 'dead' best friend isn't dead; only the heel of Dunn's boot caught a bullet; and he never played baseball for the St. Louis Cardinals or any other major-league team.
"Dunn acknowledged that those stories and others were untrue, but he defends fabrications as necessary to illustrate his theological and moral points.
"He compares his stories to the parables told by Jesus--acknowledging, however, that Jesus' parables weren't about himself...
"Other Mormon leaders apparently were concerned about this in September 1989, because, within weeks of investigating allegations that his war and sports stories were fabricated, they quietly placed Dunn, 66, on 'emeritus' status 'for health reasons.'
"As a 'general authority' since 1964, Dunn had been among the top 90 men who govern the 7.3 million-member worldwide church.
"The church also pressured Salt Lake City freelance writer Lynn Packer, a Mormon, not to publish stories about Dunn's fabrications. In the fall, after the church had terminated Packer's teaching contract at Brigham Young University for pursuing the story, he provided information he has collected over the past four years to The Republic.
"Despite Dunn's 'retirement,' his grandfatherly demeanor and down-home, self-deprecating storytelling style continue to make him a popular public speaker and author.
"He also remains the most prolific author among current and former church leaders. He receives royalties from 23 inspirational cassette tapes and 28 books... They are among the more popular items in LDS bookstores....
"Dunn... said he doesn't consider it deceitful to exaggerate or alter facts.
"He said his technique is to 'combine' elements of several true stories to create a single story that will better convey a message and capture an audience's interest....
"'The combining of stories seems justifiable in terms of illustrating a point. My motives are pure and innocent,' Dunn said during an interview in Salt Lake City attended by his attorney and a friend.
"'I haven't purposely tried to embellish or rewrite history. I've tried to illustrate points that would create interest,' Dunn explained. 'Combining war stories is simply putting history in little finer packages.'... Dunn's retirement occurred within two weeks of the probe into his storytelling practices by top church officials, who had been given copies of Packer's findings.
"Dunn said he cooperated with the church's investigation but was not advised of its conclusions. He denied that it was connected to his retirement, which he insisted was for poor health that has since improved.... the university [Brigham Young University] terminated Packer's teaching contract, in part because he wanted to publish a story about his findings. "
On February 21, 1991, the Salt Lake Tribune ran an Associated Press article by Mormon General Authority and BYU Professor, Vern Anderson which contained the following:
"Lynn Packer was serving a Mormon mission in Germany in 1964 when he heard 39-year-old Paul H. Dunn had been appointed to the church's hierarchy.... it was Packer's relentless pursuit of Dunn over most of the 1980s that led to Saturday's revelation by The Arizona Republic: the church man had fabricated many of the personal war and baseball stories that had fed his reputation as the faith's most spellbinding speaker and popular author....
"Packer himself paid a high professional price for the research on Dunn...
"He ultimately lost his teaching position at church owned Brigham Young University and today, working on a one-year contract at the University of Dortmund in Germany, feels beaten 'to a pulp.'
"Why did the story that Republic reporter Richard Robertson calls the worst-kept secret in Salt Lake take so long to come out?
"The answer appears to lie in the church's effort to avoid a scandal and in Packer's own vulnerability as a BYU employee without tenure whose wife had been diagnosed with cancer early in 1987.
"The combination led, on Sept. 30, 1987, to a 'deal' between Packer and a 'high church official' in which he withdrew the story he had submitted to United Press International in exchange for a guarantee of continued employment at BYU, according to Packer.
"Packer declined to identify the official, but has told others it was his uncle, Elder Boyd K. Packer of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.
"'Lynn claims he had an agreement with his uncle through his father,' said BYU spokesman Paul Richards. 'That the agreement fell apart when he continued to ask questions about Paul Dunn. When he continued to ask questions, Elder Packer felt he had not been true to the agreement.'
"Through spokesman Jerry Cahill, Boyd Packer said Wednesday, 'There was nothing ever stated. It never happened. There was no such agreement that Lynn Packer would be retained in exchange for no publication.'
"In 1986, Lynn Packer... decided to freelance a story on Dunn's involvement with AFCO Enterprises... the biggest real estate development in Utah history.
"Dunn... claimed his tenure as an AFCO director had ended in 1978; Packer sought to prove it had lasted much longer. He also began looking at the veracity of Dunn's stories...
"'There isn't a single significant baseball or war story I could find that was true,' said Packer, who in September 1987 complied under pressure with a BYU administrative request that he inform the church of his allegations.... Packer's department chairman at BYU, Gordon Whiting, told him in a memo dated Sept. 30, 1987, that he should permit church leaders to deal privately with the Dunn matter.
"'After providing the information, we accept the judgment of those responsible. We will not take accusations against a General Authority to the media,' Whiting wrote, adding that publication 'will damage the church, will damage the university and will damage you.'
"Fearing for his job, Packer agreed to the deal he said was offered him that night: don't publish the story and you can teach at BYU as long as you want.
"Packer bridles at suggestions by BYU officials that he was using coercion.
"'They can never give you a time or a place when I went to anybody with that story and said, 'Do this for me or else,' ' he said. 'And I can show you the times and places and dates when they, told it just the opposite: 'Do the story and you're history.' '
"Packer maintains that Elders James E. Faust and David B. Haight, Dunn's immediate superiors in the Quorum of the Twelve, were aware of the arrangement. Like Boyd K. Packer, the pair declined to be interviewed, but denied through spokesman Bruce Olsen there was any deal....
"And yet, in a memo to church spokesman Richard Lindsay after the alleged deal was struck, Packer wrote: 'I had received assurances, prior to my decision, that my job at BYU would be secure for the indefinite future if I withdrew the story.'
"At BYU, Whiting decided in early 1988 not to renew Packer's contract for the 1988-89 school year...
"'I thought the decision was mine to make,' Whiting said.
"After Packer completed his teaching duties in August 1990, he was given a year's salary as severance pay, a move that surprised Whiting since it didn't come out of his departmental budget.
"'I think it probably looks to many people... like an effort to bribe him not to go with the Paul Dunn story,' Whiting said....
"For his part, Whiting said he was pained by 'the degree to which the university has been pulled into this situation. And I guess I'm also pained at the church being pulled in.
"But the church will have to fend for itself and do what it can to rescue its reputation for honesty and integrity.'"(Salt Lake Tribune, February 21, 1991)
My three closest Mormon Apostle friends were Howard W. Hunter, Ezra Taft Benson and Harold B. Lee. After I awoke from a three-day coma in November, 1960 I conversed with them many times while I was recovering at the St. Marys Hospital in Tucson. During a telephone conversation with Apostle Lee he shared his personal belief that I would recover and assist him in many activities. Clyde had been called in June, 1960 by the Quorum of the 12 and First Presidency to be the first LDS Institute Director to establish the new Priesthood Correlation operation where the new direction of the church goes directly from the Quorum of the 12 to the Stake President and no longer through the Quorum of Seventy. Howard W. Hunter had come to Tucson, Arizona and spent a couple of weeks with us. He ordained Clyde a bishop of two wards. Clyde was very close to many Mormon Church leaders for his personal knowledge and contributions in natural resources and US Government connections (Chief Technician, Atomic Energy Commission – Geologist for the US government since 1953) throughout the world.
Before my Mormon mission to Brazil, South America in September, 1969 I had many face-to-face discussions with Apostle Lee. Once he shared with me his personal experience in go
