This letter is in reply to your January 31 letter. Please forgive me
for not answering sooner. Enclosed is some material I hope that you can glean
something of value (from). Please be as candid as you have been in the past and
if I am far off base don't hesitate to tell me...
Our foundation has located a vast system of underground passages in the
Mother Lode country of California. They were first discovered in 1936, ignored
by all even with our best efforts to reveal them. Recently a road crew blasted
out an opening verifying our claims. ONE (of the chambers is) 200 feet long, 70
feet wide and 50 feet high. We have disclosed what we believe to be a vast
subterranean drainage system (probably traversing the Great American Desert
country for a distance of more than 600 miles). We believe this system extends
out like five fingers of your hand to such landmarks as Zion Canyon in Utah, the
Grand Canyon, another runs south from the Carson Sink in Nevada and yet another
follows (below) the western slope of the same range, joining it's counterpart
and ending somewhere in the Mojave Desert. We believe, contrary to orthodox
geologists, that the existence of this underground system drains all surface
waters running into Nevada (none, with the exception of the Armagosa runs out)
and accounts for the fact that it is a Great American Desert. The hairy
creatures that you have written about have been seen in several of these areas.
Certainly there has been much 'saucer' activity in these parts. For two years I
have collected material pertinent to these creatures and if you have any
opinions along these lines I would appreciate hearing them.
So much for now. I hope that I am still your friend. Much of my time
has been devoted (to) helping a farmer near Portland who has made a fantastic
discovery of incredible stone artifacts. He has several tons of them. They
predate anything yet found (or accepted), let us say that for now. We are making
slow but steady progress in getting through the wall of orthodoxy. - Chuck
Edwards.
Several years ago, subsurface researcher Richard Toronto reprinted a news
article in his SHAVERTRON newsletter describing a Municipal Water Director in
Los Angeles. This official talked with a man who said that he was hired by the
government to look for underground water sources for Camp Irwin in California.
At one point the man and a partner came across an abandoned mine and decided
to follow it to the bottom. Near the bottom he was surprised to discover an
ancient earth-fault which was wide enough for him and his companion to enter.
They traversed this fault for a good distance until they finally emerged into a
huge river-cavern. To his surprise he saw before him a crystal pure underground
river over a quarter of a mile wide which flowed through the passage and out of
sight.
Since learning of this incident the Municipal Water Director claims to have
'discovered' at least five similar underground rivers. Some of these have
allegedly been die-traced and were found to emerge from the continental slope
below the surface of the oceans, and at least one of them into the Gulf of
California.
This might confirm the allegations made by one anonymous retired Navy officer
that the Navy has knowledge of a VAST system or labyrinth of aqua-caverns which
meander beneath the surface of California and even into other western states,
and that these watery labyrinths exit out into the oceans via huge entrances in
the lower walls of the Continental Slope. One of the more extravagant claims is
that some of these aqua-caverns are so large that they can be navigated by
submarine, and that one nuclear submarine on a secret mapping mission in fact
became lost within the maze and was never heard from again. Two American nuclear
submarines have disappeared without explanation in the past, the U.S.S. SCORPION
and the U.S.S. THRESHER. It is true that one woman who claimed to have had a
very strong emotional bond with her husband who worked on the Thresher, insisted
at the time that she just 'knew' that her husband was still alive after the
'disaster'. She said that she and her husband had such a spiritual-emotional
connection that they always knew when the other was in trouble (For information
on the Navy's investigations of the aqua-labyrinths via nuclear subs, etc., see:
'CALIFORNIA FLOATS ON OCEAN?'; article in the March, 1980 issue of John J.
Williams' "REBEL MAGAZINE", which at the time was available from:
Consumertronics Co., c/o John J. Williams. Pres., 2011 Crescent Dr., P.O. Drawer
537., Alamogardo, NM 88310). The Thresher incidentally 'disappeared' on April
10, 1963 with a crew of 129 men under the command of John W. Harvey, USN.)
Researchers Will Carson and Jeannie Joy interviewed the woman mentioned above
shortly after the disappearance. She said:
"...My husband was on the submarine Thresher when it disappeared. I
don't consider myself a widow. I don't believe my husband is dead. No, it's not
a matter of just not being able to believe it, to accept reality; I just can't
get over the conviction that he's still alive somewhere. I love my husband very
much. I know he loved -- loves me. We were very close. We could always tell when
something was wrong with each other. Intuition, I guess. I should have felt
something the instant there was trouble, if he was really in serious trouble and
knew it -- a matter of life and death -- but I didn't."
"What do you believe really happened?" Carson and Joy asked the
attractive young woman.
"Most people think I'm crazy when I say this, but I believe the
Thresher
was captured."
"By whom?"
"I can't say for sure, but there WAS a Russian submarine spotted near
there that day (that is, near where it REPORTEDLY vanished 220 miles off Boston
harbor) -- only I can't imagine how even the Russians could CAPTURE a vessel
like the Thresher without leaving the slightest evidence!"
John J. Williams' source, the retired Navy officer (whose credentials
Williams verified), stated that "an eccentric billionaire" (Howard
Hughes!?) financed the false Thresher "recovery operation" to satisfy
the public and the media.
Still more revelations concerning the Mojave subnet can be found in Bourke
Lee's book DEATH VALLEY MEN (MacMillan Co., N.Y. 1932).
In his chapter: 'Old Gold', Lee describes a conversation which he had several
years ago with a small group of Death Valley explorers. The conversation had
eventually turned to the subject of Paihute Indian legends. At one point two of
the men, Jack and Bill, described their experience with an 'underground city'
which they claimed to have discovered after one of them had fallen through the
bottom of an old mine shaft near Wingate Pass. They found themselves in a
natural underground cavern which they claimed they followed for about 20 miles
north into the heart of the Panamint Mountains. To their amazement, they
claimed, they found themselves in an huge, ancient, underground cavern city.
This account will be quoted later on, however in addition to this, Lee recorded
yet another story of a Paihute Indian (not the same one referred to by Oga Make)
who may have stumbled into the 'deeper' underground kingdom of the ancient race
who built the city within the Panamints, a civilization that was still alive and
thriving after thousands of years.
During this lengthy conversation wherein they first revealed the secret of
the underground city to Lee and others, the discussion turned to the topic of a
Paihute Indian legend that they had heard which was remarkably similar to an
ancient GRECIAN myth. The Paihute legend concerned a tribal chief whose wife had
died, and who according to the tradition took a spiritual journey to the
underworld to find her, and upon returning with her he 'looked back' and since
this was forbidden he was not allowed to bring his wife back with him from the
dead.
This legend would not be in the same vein as the more tangible story related
earlier in the File, as told by the Navaho Oga-Make, concerning a Paihute chief
who was allegedly PHYSICALLY taken into the underground cities of the Hav-musuvs deep below the Panamints. After this legend was referred to, the
conversation turned to a discussion of an alleged subterranean race, who were
believed to inhabit very deep caverns far below the Death Valley territory.
Paihute legends of the 'Hav-musuvs' indicate that these ancient dwellers of the
Panamints abandoned the ancient city within the mountain itself and migrated to
still deeper and larger caverns below. Could the following story tie-in with the
Paihute legends of the Hav-musuvs? We will enter the conversation with the
following discourse from Bourke Lee:
...The professor and Jack and Bill sat in the little canvas house in
Emigrant Canyon and heard the legend all the way through. The professor said,
"That story, in its essentials, is the story of Orpheus and
Eurydice."
"Yes," I said. "It's also a Paiute legend. Some Indians told that
legend to John Wesley Powell in the sixties."
"That's very interesting," said the professor.
"It's so close a
parallel to Orpheus and Eurydice that the story might well have been lifted
bodily from the Greeks."
Jack said, "I wouldn't be surprised. I knew a Greek. I forgot his name,
but he ran a restaurant in almost every mining town I ever was in. He was an
extensive wanderer. The Greeks are great travelers."
Bill said, "They don't mean restaurant Greeks. The Greeks they're
talken about have been dead for thousands of years."
"What of it?" asked Jack, "maybe the early Greeks was great travelers,
too."
The professor said, "It's very
interesting."
"Now! About that tunnel," said Bill, with his forehead wrapped in a
frown. "You said this Indian went through a tunnel into a strange country,
didn't you?"
"Yes," I said. "I think I called it a cave or a cavern, but I suppose a
miner would call it a tunnel. Why?"
"Here's a funny thing," said Bill.
"This Indian trapper livin right
across the canyon has a story about a tunnel, an it's not a thousand years old
either. Tom Wilson told me that his grandfather went through this tunnel and
disappeared. He was gone three years, and when he came back he said he'd been in
a strange country livin among strange people. That tunnel is supposed to be
somewhere in the Panamints not awful far from where we're sitten. Now! What do
you make of that?"
Jack said, "I think Tom's grandfather was an awful
liar."
I said, "Tom's grandfather lived when the Paiutes were keeping their
tribal lore alive. He probably knew the old legend. Powell heard it in Nevada
only sixty-five years ago."
"It's very interesting," said the professor.
"I got an idea about it," said Bill, thoughtfully.
"Tom's grandfather
might have wandered into some tunnel all goofy from chewen jimson weed and then
come out an found some early whites an stayed with them. Tom told me that the
people spoke a queer language and ate food that was new to his grandfather an
wore leather clothes. They had horses and they had gold. It might have been a
party in Panamint Valley, or even early explorers or early settlers in Owens
Valley. How about that?"
Jack said, "Yeah. The Spaniards was in here, too. So it might have been
Spaniards or the early Greeks. And, where is this tunnel? And why did Tom's
grandfather have trouble speaking the language? This is an entirely different
story than the one Buck told. We are arriving at no place at all with these
Indians and Greeks... To return for a moment to our discussion of geology,
professor; have you been in Nevada much?"
From here the conversation took off in an entirely new direction...
Not only human 'UFOnauts' have been encountered in the Mojave Desert region, but
the so-called GRAYS as well. Is it possible that the GRAYS had their genesis on
planet earth thousands of years ago the 'Nordics' apparently did? This is the
opinion of researcher Brad Steiger who is convinced that the GRAYS are actually
descended from a mutation of the saurian race which mysteriously 'disappeared'
from the earth, therefore giving rise to the theory that they became 'extinct'
in spite of the fact that other saurians like the crocodiles, alligators and
iguanas continued to survive.
In 1967, UFO researcher Brad Steiger co-authored (with Joan Whritenour -
later Joan O'Connell) a book titled: FLYING SAUCERS ARE HOSTILE. Regarding the
intentions of many of the occupants behind the phenomena, Steiger and Whritenour
stated:
...Certain saucer cultists, who have been expecting space brethren to
bring along some pie in the sky, continue to deliver saucer-inspired sermons
on the theme that the saucers come to bring starry salvation to a troubled
world. The self-appointed ministers who preach this extraordinary brand of
evangelism ignore the fact that not ALL 'saucers' can be considered friendly.
Many give evidence of hostile actions. There is a wealth of well-documented
evidence that UFO's have been responsible for murders, assaults, burning by
direct-ray focus, radiation sickness, kidnappings, pursuits of automobiles,
attacks on homes, disruption of power sources, paralysis, mysterious
cremations, and destructions of aircraft. Dozens of reputable eye-witnesses
claim to have seen alien personnel loading their space vehicles with specimens
from earth, including animals, soil and rocks, water, and struggling human
beings.
Steiger (who also authored the books:
FLYING SAUCER INVASION - TARGET EARTH,
and THE FLYING SAUCER MENACE, as well as several others) also believed that the
entities most often encountered are not only hostile, as indicated by the above
quote, but non-human and in fact REPTILIAN or SAURIAN in nature. In relation to
this, there is the following statement which was recently made by Steiger in his
popular video film "THE TRUTH ABOUT UFO'S". Steiger has, to some
extent (in his video) "changed his tune" concerning the nature of
these reptilian beings -- supposing now that they aren't as evil as he made them
out to be in earlier years. However, the facts just don't support this
conclusion, and the only explanation which we can offer to this change of
attitude would be the fact (as mentioned by a number of sources) that these
creatures have the ability to manipulate from a distance the minds, emotions and
spirits of humans through occult-technological or psycho-supernatural means,
and that they would undoubtedly use this power to de-sensitize humanity to their
actual nature. It may also be that Steiger succumbed to the pressure of the many
New Age "Aquarians" with whom he interacts, who trust in
"channeled" revelations which usually portray the Grays as benevolent
"space-brothers" who are here to help establish a quantum
evolutionary transformation and cosmic initiation into the fourth dimension of
universal New Age god-consciousness, whatever that means. Certainly, if the true
nature of the serpent races were widely known, their operations and even their
very existence might be threatened. There are some who believe that the many
movies, animated programs, etc., which depict reptilian-like 'alien' beings in a
'benevolent' fashion -- are de-sensitizing America's young people away from their
natural enmity toward these ancient, though elusive, enemies of mankind. Steiger,
who is considered one of the foremost writers on UFO's and related subjects,
said the following:
"In the late 1960's I presented my hypothesis that the reason why the
most frequently reported UFOnauts resemble REPTILIAN or AMPHIBIAN humanoids
may be because that is exactly what they are, highly evolved members of a
serpentine or semi-aquatic species. A provocative theory is that the dinosaurs
didn't really vanish, they 'evolved' into a humanoid creature that eventually
ran it's course, or was destroyed in an Atlantis-type catastrophe (i.e. such
as the Great Deluge. Although Steiger and others may hold to an 'evolutionary'
hypothesis, this may not necessarily be the case, especially when the 2nd Law
of Thermodynamics and the laws of entropy are brought to bear. Instead of
'evolving' from a far less complex form, it is in fact far more likely that
the serpent race MUTATED via natural selection, environmental adaptation,
survival of the fittest and most intelligent, and so on, into it's various
known and unknown branches, from a complex single species which originally
inhabited the earth in ancient times. There is a BIG difference between the
scientific fact of LATERAL MUTATION and the Darwinian theory of ASCENDING
EVOLUTION - Branton).
"...I had developed this hypothesis considerably," Steiger
continues, "...so I was delighted when I received word that Dale Russell
and Ron Seguen of Canada's 'National Museum of Natural Sciences' of Ottawa,
had fashioned a model of a humanoid dinosaur using Stenonychosaurus and
Equallus as their inspiration. Stenonychosaurus, according to Russell, had a
rather large brain and eyes with over-lapping visual fields. The 90 pound
dinosaur also walked on two legs, and it appears to have had a particularly
OPPOSABLE THUMB on it's three-clawed hand. The result of such scientific
speculation was an astonishingly human-like creature that Russell terms a 'Dinosauroid'.
The creature stands four-and-a-half feet tall, has a large, domed head, green
skin, and yellow reptilian eyes. It should probably have had ears, Russell
conceded, but the effect would have made it appear too human. As it is, the
dinosaur on display at Canada's 'National Museum of Natural Sciences' almost
EXACTLY fits the descriptions of UFOnauts provided by THOUSANDS of men and
women throughout the planet who have reported close encounters..."
In his book THE UFO ABDUCTORS (1988., Berkley Books., N.Y.), pp 5-6,
Steiger adds:
"In the greatest number of alien encounters, the UFOnauts
were described as standing about five feet tall and dressed in one-piece,
tight-fitting jumpsuits. Their skin was gray, or grayish-green, and hairless.
Their faces were dominated by large eyes, VERY OFTEN WITH SNAKELIKE, SLIT
PUPILS. They had no discernible lips, just straight lines for mouths. They
seldom were described as having noses, just little snubs if at all; but usually
the witnesses saw only nostrils nearly flush against the smooth face. Sometimes
a percipient mentioned pointed ears but on many occasions commented on the
absence of noticeable ears on the large, round head. And, REPEATEDLY, WITNESSES
DESCRIBED AN INSIGNIA OF A FLYING SERPENT ON A SHOULDER PATCH, A BADGE, A
MEDALLION, OR A HELMET."
The annual "NEVADA AERIAL RESEARCH JOURNAL" for Summer, 1989
confirmed Mr. Steiger's claims by re-printing a UPI news item which appeared in
a Berkley, California newspaper. The article stated:
Dale Russell, curator of fossil vertebrates at the National Museums of
Canada in Ottawa, has developed a theory that intelligent life forms could
have developed from the large reptiles that roamed the earth (in ancient
times).
Russell calls his imaginary creature a 'Dinosauroid' which would look
like a hairless, green-skinned reptile with a bulging skull, luminous cat-like
eyes and three-fingered hands...
The amphibians evolved into a humanoid species that eventually
developed a culture that ran its course or was destroyed in an Atlantis-like
catastrophe -- just after they had begun exploring extraterrestrial frontiers.
Certain UFOnauts, then, may be the descendants of the survivors of that
amphibian culture RETURNING from their space colony to monitor the present
dominant species on the HOME planet.
This is one possibility which was given in the article. According to certain
sources the 'winged serpent' that is emblemed on the 'alien' uniforms represents
another reptilian mutation which is near the very top of the alien or reptilian
hierarchy, entities which have been referred as the pterodactoids, the mothmen,
or the winged draco. These have allegedly been seen on rare occasions and have
even been the subject of an entire book by UFO researcher John A. Keel.
Further confirmation comes from the 4-part documentary 'DINOSAUR', hosted by
Walter Cronkite. This program also described the possibility that certain groups
of ancient saurians may have developed or mutated into hominoid sauroids. David
Norman, in a review of the series, stated:
...The series finishes with an unusual flourish. In 1982 Dr. Dale Russel
of the Royal Museum of Canada, Ottawa indulged in a half-serious thought
experiment. He had described a small, HIGHLY PREDATORY, nimble troodont
dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous, STENONYCHOSAURUS, which had AN UNUSUALLY
LARGE BRAIN, large stereoscopic eyes, and grasping hands. He speculated about
what might have happened to such dinosaurs if they had not become extinct. His
answer was the 'dinosauroid' -- a three-clawed, three-toed, large-brained,
UPRIGHT, and TAILLESS dinosaur.
Norman also described the almost human-like quality of the hand of one
particular saurian branch, the Iquanodon:
...The flexible fifth finger
moves a bit like a human thumb for grasping objects, while the middle three
fingers are capable of little flexure. The large, stiletto-like thumb spike of
Iguanodon would have been a devastating weapon. The sharp spike, coupled with
the strength of the forelimb, could have punctured the toughest skin.
It is possible that if such a highly intelligent yet (according to many
accounts) extremely insidious and predatory 'race' does in fact exist, then it
might NOT have 'mutated' far from it's original form as it is 'pictured' --
although in a rather obscure fashion -- in the 3rd chapter of Genesis. If we are
to believe the thousands of witnesses who have reported such creatures during
UFO encounters (descriptions which would either be the result of a collective
hoax, mass hallucination, or observation of actual encounters -- the latter of
which seems to be the most likely), then one could reasonably ask the question:
"Where do they originate from?" If they had their origin on earth as
Brad Steiger suggests, then where on earth are the infernal creatures? A better
question might be "Where IN earth are the infernal creatures?"
Although the 'serpent race' has largely succeeded in evading the scrutiny of
most humans living on the surface of this planet over the centuries, there are
many indications which nevertheless suggest a SUBTERRANEAN connection -- not
only to a large percentage of the UFO phenomena, but also to many of the
creatures which lie behind the phenomena as well, especially the REPTILIAN
creatures such as those described by Steiger.
Believe it or not, there ARE in fact many more very well documented accounts
concerning alien, non-human 'entities' -- aside from the one's mentioned earlier
-- which have been encountered in underground recesses throughout the world.
Traditional Judeo-Christianity has more-or-less associated the depths of the
earth with 'Hades' and 'demons'. We are certainly not denying this, but we are
offering a much more elaborated exposition of this concept.
Before describing these, however, we will document some cases of reptilian
hominoids which have been encountered on the SURFACE of the planet. The
following accounts, which appear in 'CURIOUS ENCOUNTERS', by Loren Coleman
(Faber & Faber., Boston, Mass. 1985) pp. 70-76, describe encounters with
reptilian and/or amphibian bi-pedal creatures of a semi-aquatic nature:
In 1973, during the summer, residents of New Jersey's Newton-Lafayette
area described A GIANT, MAN-LIKE ALLIGATOR they had seen locally. Newspaper
reporters wrote about an old Indian tale from the region that told of a giant,
man-sized fish that could never be caught. In 1977, New York State Conservation
Naturalist Alfred Hulstruck reported that the state's Southern Tier had "a
scaled, man-like creature (that) appears at dusk from the red, algae-ridden
waters to forage among the fern and moss-covered uplands."
The New York-New Jersey record, however, cannot compare with the
overwhelming series of narratives issuing from one place in the United States,
the Ohio River Valley.
Over twenty years ago, by digging into the back issues of the
Louisville, Kentucky, COURIER-JOURNAL, I discovered one of those gems that has
kept me pondering its meaning for two decades. The interesting little item was
in the 24 October 1878 issue. A "Wild Man of the Woods" was captured,
