John wrote this letter to Col. George P. Freeman, a spokesman for Project Blue Book, on Jan. 30, 1967. I don’t know what Col. Freeman thought of it, but I think it likely that John’s warning about “the actual physical fate of the planet itself” was not taken seriously.
I assume the “rather hysterical newspaper piece” John mentions is this one.

Maybe now 60 years later we may have some type of disclosure? It seems the UFO phenomenon has given up on government disclosure and have a program of informing the planet one abductee at a time!

I would say Freeman took it favorably. Freeman is Keel’s source in the massive NANA newspaper article that was widely circulated 2/3/1967, where Freeman admitted persons had been going around impersonating Air Force officers while silencing UFO investigators.
