Okay.
B.
I said ministers last night. There are now 8,000
ministers, affiliate membership numbers somewhere
near 100,000 now.
J.
Where are the branches of the church outside of the
U. S.? You mentioned there were 14 foreign countries.
B.
In Europe there is England, Sweden, Italy in particular.
I have a listof all of the ones in Italy, and then
Uganda in the Continent of Africa, and several of the
new emerging African nations the people have been named
Bishops and like this for their égo purposes, and
they're growing quite large. In fact the head of -
the Bishop of the Uganda Church is the Defense Minister
there of Uganda, I think that is very interesting.
J.
What's his name?
B.
I can't pronounce any of those black names. You forget
it. I've got it at home.
J.
Will you send it back? Send us
B.
I'll send it to Mr. Alcock, yes.
J.

Defense Minister of Uganda is the head of the Universal

J.
Can you say another country where possibly a Defense
Minister or another member of the government is known
to you would be involved?
B.
I think you're projecting a bit because I don't know
these people's positions. I know the Mayor of a town
in the Country of Guatemala is the head of the Universal
Life Church in his city, but he is not the head of the
church in Guatemala. DR. HENSLEY is the head of the
church in Guatemala.
J.
DR. HENSLEY of Modesto?
B.
Yes. He is the head of the church in Guatemala.
J.
Does he go to Guatemala to take part in it?
B.
No, he's never been there. He just -- al through
correspondence. There are several ministers in
Guatemala, Honduras - British Honduras, Costa Rica,
Nicaragua; one of the Samosa brothers, I don't know
whichever one that is still alive, he wrote for our
papers. He has been granted ministers and bishops
papers with the Universal Life Church. Now, how he
heard of it I do not know, and I understand that Samosa
