There are many indications suggesting that certain humans
have, in one way or another, been brought under the mental,
technical or occult control of the 'reptilians' over the years,
whether they are fully aware of this manipulation or not.  Could
the 'being' referred to in this account, which appeared on pp.
1136-1137 of Raymond A. Palmer's 'HIDDEN WORLD' publication for
Summer, 1962, be the type of subterranean-dwelling creature which
at least one account referred to as a creature that goes by the
description of a 'dragon-worm'?  Could this creature (supposing
it does in fact exist and is not the result of one man's deluded
and misguided fantasy experience) be one of the MANY and VARIED
branches or mutations of the 'serpent' races, which many accounts
such as those given in earlier files tend to confirm exist within
subterranean areas?  We are afraid that accounts such as this one
might raise more questions than they answer.  Remember that this
letter appeared years before the advent of the famous 'Star Wars'
trilogy which depicted a creature very similar to that described
in the following letter.  Again one might wonder if George Lucas
himself might not have been inspired subconsciously by certain
evident realities, and portrayed some of these, although in a
rather corrupted, embellished and 'occultized' manner, in his
movies.  The following account was submitted by a reader who
chose to remain anonymous.  He states:

"Dear Ray:
     "This happened about 12 or 13 years ago.  I was in my late
teens, I think, but perhaps the time is not as important as the
incident.
     "In the late night hours I awoke, got out of bed, walked out
of the house and was met by a group of men (?) who drove me out
into the country to an old farmhouse.  I don't know the location
any more than the people involved; maybe I was drugged, I don't
know.  At the farmhouse we went immediately to the potato cellar
and through a trapdoor in the floor down a long inclining tunnel.
We arrived into a room, fantastically decorated, bizarre, like
Hades - how can I describe it?  It was of good size; and others
were present.  Some one asked: 'Is he ready?' and the answer:
'Yes, he is.'  Two 'others' - one on each side of me escorted me
into a room?  Tunnel?  (again beyond my description) the worm, or
whoever or whatever he or it was, was huge, long, round, knobby. 
An immense head and mouth (which swayed back and forth) spoke to
me.  I don't remember what it said or my answer, but one of them
put a syringe into it, and then into me!  I swear the language
spoken by them and myself was not English, but somehow I seemed
to know, yet but not know.  After some kind of warning and
benediction from this being I was escorted out.  Once again the
car, the return trip, and home in bed.  Since that time I have
once in awhile visited the caves quite unhindered... in dreams
and the like (since 'suppressed' memories of experiences with
UFO's, etc. often surface in 'dreams' or impressions, could these
be actual memories of other visits to the nether regions which
were suppressed from his memory?  There is also the small chance
that ray-induced visions or even 'astral' interaction might be
involved as well - Branton).  I can only comment that the
knowledge of, and use of the mechs, the architecture, the
philosophies in the pictures (or whatever they are), would enable
man to live like gods in comparison to how they now live. 
However the areas of horror beyond comprehension would have to be
removed before this can be done (Note: Is he referring to the so-
called super-human abilities brought about through the
manipulation of powerful electromagnetic occult technologies?  We
must remind the reader that 'power' has NOTHING to do with
righteousness nor benevolence, or as the old saying goes: 'Might
does not make right!'  Such abilities to manipulate the forces of
nature via occult technologies, such as those which were
developed and utilized by the pre-deluvians - which by the way IN
PART played a role in their destruction - and which is now being
used by many of the inhabitants of the nether 'cavern' regions,
could be extremely destructive if placed in the wrong hands -
Branton).  
     "An interesting sequel to this (dream or reality?) is that I
have prayed, hard, that this wouldn't affect my life.  I believe
in some ways it hasn't, but my wife feels that something, as I
also have felt, is not allowing me to live as I want to.  Of
course I want to know, was it dream or reality? (Name deleted by
request)."

     The following letter appeared in the July, 1964 issue of
'SEARCH' Magazine, and was written by a Mr. Ervin M. Scott of (at
the time) 536 12th St.,  Denver, Colorado:
     "Dear Ray: 
     "Congratulations on another excellent issue of 'SEARCH'
Magazine.
     "I was especially interested in your article, 'Faces in Your
Dreams.'
     "Having had many strange, puzzling dreams over the last few
years, I have become quite interested in any clues that might
point towards origin and cause of dreams.  I recognize a good
many as probably having the subconscious as the source.  However,
there is an occasional dream, that is so vivid and unusual that
it causes one to wonder.
     "I have no connection one way or the other, on the Shaver
Mystery, but, I will briefly describe two dreams that are
interesting in relation to that subject.
     "On Nov. 30, 1963 while in a light sleep I heard a woman's
voice coming as if from a distance and she spoke urgently as
follows: 'This is from a stolen farm beneath the Salt Lake flats
in Utah. (I was living in Wichita, Kansas at the time.)  There
was a woman abducted almost three weeks ago in Boston, Mass. and
taken underground.  Reports indicate that an abbey in North
section of the city is being used and that cellars underneath the
abbey connect with tunnels leading up from caverns below.  This
is a continuation of the Evil one's War against Mankind.'
     "Another voice broke in, 'Don't believe her.  Don't you see
this is a lie - a trick? (Then, warningly) Keep quiet about
this.'
     "I have never been in Utah nor have had no thoughts about or
desire to visit, so if this was caused by subconscious, it is
certainly puzzling, as is the reference to 'a stolen farm'..."
     
     This letter suggests that a conflict of sorts has been and
is taking place in cavernous levels below Utah, as in other
states.
     In earlier files we revealed an incident which was
originally described by 'Commander X', from a source in Dulce,
N.M., stating that a certain chemical was secretly (through
certain 'doctors' tied in with the aliens) being injected into
individuals via sulfa drugs which in turn lodge in the bone-
structure of the victim.  This chemical allegedly makes their
bodies extremely sensitive to ELF (Extremely Low Frequency) radio
waves, which can be 'tuned in' to the encephalographic wave band
of the human brain, and could apparently be used to subliminally
control human minds from a distance.
     Perhaps some individuals, such as the writer of the letter
just quoted, are naturally sensitive to these extremely low
frequency waves, in that their brains to some extent act as an
electromagnetic biological ELF radio receiver.  Certain accounts
suggest that some subterranean groups utilize ELF radio
transceivers capable of penetrating miles of solid rock.
     The letter just quoted suggests that another group, more
malevolent, utilize a similar form (of ELF radio wave
transceivers) such as the one through which the woman apparently
sent out the 'distress call'.
     Could this 'other' voice be tied-in with a subterranean
group similar to the group that some refer to as the 'Horlocks'? 
Or could it have originated from the Reptilians?  The 'Horlocks'
are as we've suggested earlier allegedly a dero-like group of
human slaves who are manipulated and kept under reptilian control
via implantation, technosis, etc.
     The Salt Lake Valley subnet has been a MAJOR area from where
reports of Reptilians or Sauroids have emerged, so this would
strongly suggest that the Serpent Race fits intricately into the
scenario taking place below the Salt Lake 'flats' as well.  Also,
Dougway Military 'Proving' grounds which lies on the Salt Flats
has been another source of some very strange activities according
to certain sources, including high-tech research in 'subspace
teleportation' similar to that involved in the so-called
'Philadelphia Experiment' as it is described in Charles Berlitz'
book of the same name; sightings of UFO's and 'para-humans'; much
Top Secret activity; underground tunnels, etc.  According to
Thomas C., the former Dulce Base security officer who 'defected'
from the underground empire, Dougway is a definite 'entrance' to
the U.S. subnet.  Some have even suggested that due to the high
publicity that the Nevada Military Complex is receiving as a
result of exposition of 'joint' activity and infiltration of the
complex by alien forms, much of the reptilian and reptilian-
controlled underground activity may be moving across the border
into western Utah.

     From what we've been able to gather (from different sources,
including a Salt Lake physicist who had experienced her own
abductions; a man who worked in top secret positions at Dougway
Proving Ground; a Salt Lake security officer who is knowledgeable
of the Salt Lake Police Departments own awareness of the
underground systems; as well as others) the following
subterranean related accounts may very well be true.
     The first settlers of the Salt Lake Valley, our sources
indicate, after they first entered the area, discovered a network
of ancient tunnels below the ground that seemed to converge
beneath what is now downtown Salt Lake City.  Some of these
tunnels, it was found, led east and connected with 'Huge' cavern
networks DEEP beneath the Wasatch Range of the Western Rockies.
     Some indications seem to suggest that a human civilization,
possibly pre-dating the American 'Indians', were encountered in
these caverns and that a loose 'alliance' might have resulted
between this society and certain Federal 'officials' (FBI, etc.)
in the city above.  There are also indications that some of these
may have a connection with the subterranean group known as the
Telosians, based largely beneath Mt. Shasta, California.  Some
years ago the 'Telosian' Bonnie (Sharula), who was mentioned in
an earlier File, informed one researcher that the tunnels below
Salt Lake do exist and that some Telosians live and work in the
surface society along the Wasatch front, as well as other areas
around the U.S.  This was a few years before certain people who
claimed to have actually been inside these tunnels themselves
began to relate their experiences, thus confirming Bonnie's or
Sharula's claims.
     'Bonnie' also stated that her people maintain a huge
underground base in the mountains adjacent to Big Cottonwood
Canyon just east of Salt Lake.
     An Air Force pilot who was involved in top secret Air Force
photo-recon flights several years ago, who referred to himself as
'Mel Noel', claimed to have seen and photographed numerous UFO's
over the ROCKY MOUNTAINS of Utah, Idaho, etc. on several
occasions, the first encounter involving 16 disks which broke
formation and went into an incredible display of aerial
acrobatics.  Their commanding general claimed to have had
personal contact with the HUMAN occupants of these craft, who he
described as being very attractive physically, and benevolent
although very secretive.  They claimed to hail from underground
cities beneath other planetary bodies in this solar system as
well as underground cities BELOW the surface of the earth (i.e.
the Rockies, etc.?).  They also told this Air Force general that
their 'Tribunal', based on one of the Saturnian moons, ties this
interplanetary 'Solar' alliance together.  Another man, Guy
Kirkwood, came forward in the early 1990's describing an almost
identical experience as Mel Noel's.  Some even believe that
Kirkwood is none other than the notorious 'Mel Noel' who caused
such a stir among early UFOlogists during the 'contactee' waves
of the 1950's and '60's.
     In order to protect the privacy of our 'sources' we will
identify them only by their initials.
     K.S. has related many accounts concerning alien-type
encounters in Utah, including the Salt Lake Valley area.  These
stories range from encounters with Nordic-type blond humans
walking incognito among the inhabitants of the valley (K.S. was
allegedly visited by a group of blondes claiming to be from the
Pleiades who left with her a very interesting crystal-powered
'communicating' device), confrontations with sinister MIB-like
beings of both human and 'androidal' configurations who have also
been seen infiltrating the upper city, and at least one incident
involving apparent conflict between the 'Blond'(?) and MIB
groups.  This involved a UFOlogist who was rather outspoken in
his search for underground bases, UFO landing strips and the
like.  One day while talking to an employee of a place which sold
topographical maps--asking about some strange circular markings
and roads that seemed to dead-end in cliffs, etc. in maps of the
Nevada military--he noticed that he was being closely monitored
by two 'Blondes'(?) or a another group possibly connected with
the government.  Suddenly a 'man' dressed in black came into the
place and immediately noticed the people who were observing the
UFOlogist.  When this man saw these people he seemed to recognize
them or their kind and he turned in terror and almost ran from
the place.  One has to wonder what that was all about.
     K.S. has described several areas in the state of Utah which
have had definite connections with UFO's, possibly being 'base'
sites.  These include the La Sal mountains and Monroe mountain in
southern Utah and mountains east of Salt Lake and Ogden where
reports of strange underground bases, UFO encounters, hidden
caverns and hidden 'landing strips' for 'alien' craft abound, as
well as the MAJOR subnet beneath Salt Lake City itself.
     She described one incident during which she experienced a
considerable amount of 'missing time'.  This took place after she
and a friend of hers, knowing her interest in UFO's, offered to
show her a place where she could observe 'UFO's taking off and
landing.'  They subsequently traveled in a dune buggy to the
southeast, several miles up the 'Nebo Loop' road into the
mountains behind Payson, Utah, in the general direction of Mt.
Nebo.  Some miles up the canyon her friend suddenly left the road
and for the next hour or so they traveled along rough terrain
until they suddenly emerged over the lip of an ENCLOSED valley
surrounded by mountains on all sides.  At the bottom of the
valley were several deer drinking from a small swampy-like lake
or pond.  She claimed that she experienced several hours of
missing time.  After the incident her watch would not operate. 
She described a feeling of 'fear' that permeated the valley and
she alleged that she could actually 'feel' something, or several
'somethings' watching her.  Since the greys are often described
as instilling fear or body terror in their victims, along with
other indications, it might be possible that this particular
'base' area is now largely under reptilian control.  We admit
that this is just a supposition.  Whether or not this 'base' has
been taken over in part or in full by the malevolents, there may
be indications that this might not always have been the case. 
This 'hidden valley' is supposedly some miles east of the area of
Salem and Payson, Utah and MAY be one of the STANDOFF areas
between humans and reptilians such as were described by various
sources connected with the Nevada Test Site.  This area of
activity seems to move southward into the La Sal mountain range.
     This account is very similar to another incident which was
related several years ago by a German national who we will refer
to as T.S.  Just east of the small town of Salem, Utah there is
an area known as water canyon.  According to local legend, this
was the site of an ancient gold mine which had been excavated by
a pre-Columbian race of native Americans who lived in the valley,
perhaps when it was still part of the ancient Lake Bonneville
which connected the Salt and Utah valleys and generally filled
the entire Great Basin area.  Today one can still see the ancient
pictographs above what is believed to be one of the collapsed
entrances to this ancient mine.  These include pictograms
depicting 'llama-like' animals entering a tunnel bare-backed
while another line of animals is seen emerging from the ground
fully laden - supposedly with gold.  The pictograms have been
vandalized over the years but are still observable to some
extent.  Many people have attempted to enter this alleged mine
through digging, but have been frightened away by some
(sinister?) supernatural force.
     T.S. had stayed in this area after World War II and had
heard rumors of a 'hidden' or 'forbidden' valley in the mountains
to the southeast of Spanish Fork.  With permission, he and a
friend drove their truck up the dirt road which winds it's way up
Water Canyon and then south into the mountains (the entrance of
this road is on private property, and is usually closed).
     They traveled a considerable distance up the mountain. 
Eventually they made their way southward for some time, possibly
leaving their car and traveling the rest of the way on foot. 
(The entire journey to and from the area. he claimed, lasted 3
days, although he did not say how much of this time was spent
traveling).  Finally, they came to the lip of a 'hidden valley',
which they were told earlier was situated between or behind the
peaks (the same one described by K.S.?), where they immediately
saw some weird copper-like coils strewn over the ground, as well
as some kind of bluish dust.  Just then a silvery disk emerged
from the valley below and hovered near them.  Out of it emerged a
creature which T.S. could only describe as being robot-like.  The
next thing they remembered the object was gone and approximately
1 1/2 hours of their time was missing and unaccounted for,
although T.S. did faintly recall something about an underground
installation.  T.S. had his watch, but his friend soon realized
that his own watch was missing.  Strangely enough, this watch
turned up a few days later in an unmarked package in his mailbox.
     This incident took place in the mid-1940's or a little
later, and the fact that the watch was returned suggests that
humans might have been largely involved with this 'base' at that
time.  One of our researchers personally investigated this story
by traveling up this particular road, which eventually turns
south and ends at the top of a peak south of water canyon where a
transmitter tower is located.  A large trail proceeds from a
'fenced' area adjacent to the road just east of this tower and
continues towards a ridge to the south.  Once at the top of this
ridge one can see a box-like canyon to the northwest which
eventually meanders down to the Utah Valley floor, and on the
other side the now abandoned town of Thistle and the Spanish Fork
river to the east and southeast, but no hidden or enclosed
valley.  There is however a much higher ridge south of this one
which would take a good deal of hiking to get to, and from the
top of which one MIGHT be able to see the alleged hidden valley. 
This researcher did not continue as it was becoming dark and he
was not equipped to spend the night.
     The later event described by K.S. suggests that reptilian
entities might have been involved in her experiences.  This may
substantiate a suspicion we have had that the caverns beneath the
Wasatch Mountains were at one time largely controlled by humans,
and that within recent decades (whether through covert
manipulation or overt invasion) the Reptilians have taken
possession of many of these underground systems in what some
might refer to as a Tero-Dero like conflict.
     As for the Salem-Payson, Utah 'base', other people have
described UFO sightings in the mountains behind and southeast of
this area as well.
     The researcher mentioned earlier recently tried an
experiment.  He assumed that if there were people living in the
area who had INTIMATE knowledge of this particular 'base', that
they might eventually peruse through the 'UFO section' of the
local library for one reason or another (in this case the Spanish
Fork library, adjacent to Salem).  He deposited some information
(concerning recent revelations about the growing human-saurian
conflict, etc., which had surfaced in the UFO research community)
inside one of the UFO books there.  He returned a couple of weeks
later to see if the 'bait' had been taken.  The data was gone,
but in it's place he was surprised to find a written 'warning'
which was signed by the 'REPTILES'.  Either this was a prank on
the part of a skeptic who had gotten their hands on the
information he deposited, or the 'Reptiles' really did 'have his
number'.  Whatever may be involved here, which we do suspect has
something to do with a 'standoff' between humans and Reptilians,
we are certain that there are humans involved who are sincerely
interested in defending our society from these infernal alien
creatures.  The warning stated: 'WE KNOW YOUR SECRET.  WATCH OUT!
FURTHER PUBLICATIONS WILL BE LIFE THREATENING. - REPTILES.'
     This event, compared with the one which T.S. experienced
almost 45 years earlier, suggests that the 'human forces' in this
area might still be engaged in a 'stand-off' and that the
Reptilians had apparently gained some ground there to the point
of being able to operate in surface society.  The only
explanations we have of how the 'Reptiles' might have been able
to deposit the 'warning' in a library book would be that the
chameleons, MIB, or possibly even a 'tranced' and implanted human
being under their control was responsible.
     Those who receive such threats should not be concerned,
however, as there is much evidence that the reptilians are more
afraid of humanity than we are of them.  True, it's easy for
these useless vermin to kidnap children, mutilate animals and
human beings, and perform horrible genetic experiments while all
the time hiding courageously in their protected subterranean
lairs.  But will these unnatural abominations against nature dare
to take on mankind out in the open?
     R.W. is another correspondent of ours who was at one time a
worker at the Dougway Proving Grounds where he was a courier with
a high-level security clearance.  While there he allegedly
encountered 'people' that he was convinced 'were not human'.  He
wasn't sure what they were but he suggested that the government
WAS involved in advanced robotics and they might have been
androids.  He was also privy to top-secret experiments involving
electromagnetic transmission or transporting of physical objects
from one area to another.
     R.W. told of one experience he had in his younger days. 
This took place while he and a friend were exploring a cavern in
the foothills some miles northeast of the capital building in
Salt Lake, east of an area known as the 'pots' where they used to
mix asphalt for the roads several years ago.  Back in this
cavern, which was some distance behind and (not to be confused
with) a 'mine' that was located in the same area, he and his
friend saw a scaly-reptilian hominoid creature, orangish in
color, emerging from behind a rock.  Needless to say they didn't
stay around there for very long and even to this day R.W. refuses
even to go near that cave.  He apparently sensed something very
evil about it.
     Also, a security officer in Salt Lake informed one
researcher of an entrance to a tunnel system which had been
broken into several years ago by construction workers.  This was
in an area known as the 'Cinemas', in the lowest level of the
Crossroads mall-plaza in downtown Salt Lake.  This is the lowest
part of the mall, located in a step-down area about 10 or 15 feet
below the rest of the stores.  This entrance is allegedly covered
by a metal 'water meter' covering, according to the security
officer.  The same informant claimed that another security worker
(in the mall) had told him that several people had attempted to
explore these tunnels over the years and never returned.  Some
sources suggest that the FBI in the area is aware of these
tunnels.  After all, any incident involving missing persons would
inevitably come under their jurisdiction.  Perhaps they are
keeping a lid on the whole situation in order to prevent
widespread panic?  There are also indications that the FBI is
also aware of human & grey-reptilian controlled 'bases'
throughout the state as well.  The informant, K.S., stated that
some years ago she knew an FBI agent in the area who confided
that he was involved in secret government surveillance of UFO
base locations in southern Utah, and showed her an entire table-
map setup in his basement complete with marked maps, and so on
(Monroe mountain in southern Utah was apparently a 'hot-spot' of
activity.  Whether it was 'benevolent' or 'malevolent' activity
is uncertain.)
      Also, there are some indications that Federal officials may
have actually encountered the human inhabitants of some of these
bases and/or caverns, and that as we've said some type of
agreement may exist which involves FBI/Federal interaction in
protecting the 'national security' of the HUMAN subterraneans by
discouraging intruders into 'sensitive' areas, etc.  The human
inhabitants of the underground bases are apparently in an
uncomfortable position of protecting their own security from
possible human intruders from above while at the same time on the
defensive against the reptilian threat below.  The 20/20 group
(3463 State St., Suite 264., Santa Barbara, CA  93105) has
gathered some interesting testimonies concerning apparent
cooperation between Federal agents in Utah and a high-tech race
of humans based beneath the southern part of that state, who may
be tied-in with ancient Native American groups who were driven
underground by the Anglo-saxon invasion of the American
continent, perhaps explaining their extreme vigilance in
defending their own national security.  One of the human groups
involved are allegedly 8 foot tall, muscular humans who would put
Arnold Shwartzenegger to shame!
     As for the tunnel systems beneath Salt Lake City, the Police
have allegedly placed silent alarms on most of the known
entrances, possibly due in part to the fact of the many
disappearances that have taken place in the tunnels in the past. 
If unauthorized personnel happened to trip the alarms, the SLC
police dept. would instantly be notified.  When the security
officer who related this expressed his interest in exploring
these tunnels himself, he was warned by another against doing so. 
He was told that he might encounter the 'Lizard People' (exact
wording) down there, and that if he did so he might not return
alive.  This security officer however did not take the threat
seriously and doubts the existence of the alleged reptilians, but
the references to reptilian hominoids should not be ignored,
especially in light of the many HUNDREDS of similar reports which
have come from widely diversified sources.
     R.W. also recalls that when he was a young man he had
entered a roped-off area in the mall (now Crossroads) where
construction workers were employed.  He went into the restricted
area and noticed a very deep hole which descended into the ground
and seemed to curve off in a horizontal direction lower down. 
This was long before the cinemas were constructed.  After the
workers confronted him and asked why he was there, he turned
their attention to the hole, at which point they calmed down. 
They told him that 5 days previously a fellow construction worker
had gone down the hole into some tunnels below.  They were still
in the area waiting for him to return.  They made, he recalls,
some comment about 'monsters' in the tunnel, and R.W. got the
impression that they might have been half joking and half
serious, and that they were somewhat scared themselves.
     Another entrance to this underground system is said to be in
the lowest level of the multi-leveled parking lot adjacent to
the mall.  The entrance to this particular tunnel is allegedly
closed most of the time, but R.W.'s son just happened to be there
one day when it was opened, he claims.  He entered the tunnel and
went some distance until it started getting dark and he saw 'men
in suits' in the distance.  He became frightened and left the
scene quickly.  Is it possible that a similar scenario is taking
place in Salt Lake City as in Dulce, New Mexico and Madigan
Hospital, Washington? - that is, a subtle infiltration of society
by non-human beings?  True, no actual accounts directly
suggesting that this is taking place in Salt Lake have come our
way, but if New Mexico, California and Washington State are areas
where para-humans are arriving on the scene through a type of
infestation or infiltration of human society, then is it not
possible that other areas might be involved as well?
     Another opening allegedly connected an underground lavatory
which once existed several years ago below the sidewalk located
on the southeast corner of the block just to the north of the
mall.  This entrance, however, was apparently filled in several
years ago.
     One branch of this system (according to one man who
accidentally entered a 'door' to a 'janitors room' adjacent to
the underground lavatory, a door which was usually locked) said
that he passed through into a tunnel area.  Two tunnels, one
leading east and one leading 'over two miles' to the south, were
gated-off.  Suddenly he was approached by a 'janitor' who seemed
as if he was very disturbed by his presence and explained to him
in a distressed and warning tone that that area was off limits
and no one but no one was supposed to be in there.
     One branch of the tunnel system that converges below the
Crossroads mall, a system which according to some 'goes all over'
beneath the city, is said to run eastward, connecting with A
MASONIC LODGE some blocks away.  This tunnel system or subnet is
apparently not entirely controlled by either humans or
reptilians, BUT SEEMS TO BE AN AREA OF CONFLICT AND/OR
INTERACTION BETWEEN THE TWO GROUPS.  Also, another subterranean
'convergence' is said to exist below Trolley Square elsewhere in
the city, where early construction workers had allegedly broken-
in to a system of ancient underground 'catacombs' and tunnels. 
It is uncertain whether or not these connect with those below the
Crossroads mall.  Up to this point it seems as if this conflict
has been rather one-sided in favor of the reptilians or the
serpent race.  
     There are also accounts to the effect that huge cavities
exist beneath the Salt Flats, according to research conducted by
certain geologist.  This was confirmed by two sources, one of
whom was a military reservist.  He was told that a large
underground lake lies deep below the Great Salt Lake (The Great
Salt Lake has no exit to either the Atlantic or the Pacific
oceans).  A certain type of earthquake, it is believed, could
conceivably create a fracture which theoretically could empty the
entire contents of the Great Salt Lake into these large cavities
below, they are that extensive.  There are other accounts stating
that a subterranean river runs from the Wasatch mountains, below
the valley floor traveling west, and connects with an underground
lake deep beneath the Great Salt Lake itself.
     There are indications that both human and sauroid entities
have been fighting over these underground systems for many years,
and that as in installations below other states, the reptilian
activity here involves abductions (both aerial and subsurface -
and there are indications that subterrain based 'aliens' have
temporarily or permanently abducted humans from their basements
or other underground enclosures, and in the case of the temporary
abductions, erasing their memories of the event).  This activity,
if we are to believe certain accounts, also seems to involve
kidnappings, genetic experimentation, 'hybrid' experiments,
abductions of fetus' from female abductees, and God knows what
else.  There are also indications that some 'inner-planetary'
human inhabitants may have taken refuge on the surface in the
face of invading reptilian forces, and integrated themselves into
surface society.  There is also as we've suggested the
possibility of 'chameleon' entities, or reptilians genetically
engineered or through other means capable of appearing in
outwardly human-like form that are capable of infiltrating our
society (as in similar scenarios described in earlier files
involving California, New Mexico, Washington State, etc.).
     IT IS ALSO CERTAIN THAT MANY, MANY PEOPLE ARE BEING HELD IN
CAPTIVITY WITHIN REPTILIAN-CONTROLLED CAVERNS OR INSTALLATIONS
BELOW THIS AREA!
     
     This possibility was confirmed by Val Valerian in 'THE
LEADING EDGE' Newsletter, in which he stated:
     "Scores of underground installations hold citizens of
virtually every country on the planet in captivity." 
     In other words a "Hidden Holocaust" seems to be involved
which is so horrifying that it staggers the human mind.  Possibly
the "holocaust" thrives as a result of the very (no doubt
draconian-inspired) skepticism and ignorance of those on the
surface who cannot bring themselves to believe that something
like this is actually taking place.  If something like this WAS
taking place, then the public ignorance of the masses would
ENSURE that such activity could continue.  Humanity as a whole
WILL NOT act upon anything unless they are convinced that their
actions are based on real needs.
     Even if countless numbers of humans are being held against
their will in underground installations as many suggest, these
are the more fortunate one's, for numerous CONFIRMING accounts
state that others are the less fortunate victims of human
mutilation, sources for biological 'secretions', and so on.  Such
subterranean 'abductions' apparently have occurred in areas which
point to a definite subterranean influence, and we can assume
that the infernal influence behind such abductions are connected
to underground installations inhabited by the 'aliens' or
'greys', etc.
     One possible subterranean 'abduction' was described by
researcher John Grant.  In his book 'GREAT MYSTERIES' (Chartwell
Books., Secaucus, NJ., 1988), Grant records the following
frightening incident: "...In 1975 Mr. and Mrs. Jackson Wright
were driving to New York through blinding snow; in the Lincoln
Tunnel they agreed to pause and wipe snow from the front and rear
windows.  Jackson Wright never saw his wife, Martha, again."
     People just don't 'disappear' without a trace, never to be
heard from again, in a place like this unless SOMETHING
intentionally causes such a disappearance to take place.  There
have, incidentally, been reports of 'UFO' like objects and/or
alien creatures seen in connection with 'abductions' which took
place in underground tunnels, some 'deserted' by our standards
and others not.  One case involved a teenage boy who claimed that
his abductors took him underground in Europe via a long-abandoned
World War II railway tunnel.
     It is uncertain just how many human casualties have resulted
in the Da'ath or Da'yath wars over the centuries, yet based on
the various accounts which we have covered in these Files we can
assume that the victims have been in the tens of thousands AT THE
VERY LEAST.
      In the meantime, the abductions of humans, an integral part
of the 'evil ones' warfare against God and men's souls, are still
taking place.  Whether the victims are taken to underground or
off-planet areas is difficult to tell in any individual case,
although there is reason to believe that both possibilities are a
reality.  There have, believe it or not, been abductions which
have occurred in connection with 'UFO' activity which have
involved not a few, not dozens, nor hundreds but THOUSANDS of
people who have disappeared, or been abducted, en masse without a
trace.  Such is the case with the following well known and
documented incident which has baffled several researchers who
have mentioned it in their writings: 
     
     "In the Winter of 1930 a profoundly disturbing incident took
place in Canada.  Trapper Arnaud Lauret and his son observed a
strange light crossing the northern sky.  It appeared to be
headed for the Lake Anjikuni area.  The two trappers described it
as being alternatingly bullet-shaped and cylinder-shaped...
     "Another trapper named Joe LaBelle had snowshoed into the
village of the Lake Anjikuni people, and been chilled to discover
that the normally bustling community was silent, and not a soul
was moving in the streets.  Even the sled dogs, which would
normally have bayed welcome, were silent.  The shanties were
choked with snow, and not a chimney showed smoke.
     "The trapper found the village kayaks tied up on the shore
of the lake.  Inside the shanties the trapper found a further
surprise: there were meals left hanging over fires, long grown
old and moldy, apparently abandoned as they were being cooked. 
The men's rifles were still standing by the doors.  This really
frightened the trapper, because he knew that these people would
never leave their precious weapons behind.
     "He reported his discovery to the Royal Canadian Mounted
Police, who investigated further.  They discovered that the
town's dogs died of hunger, chained beneath a tree and covered by
a snowdrift.  More disturbingly, the town graveyard had been
emptied.  The graves were now yawning pits.  Despite the frozen
ground, the graves had been opened and the dead removed..."

     When we consider the possible infernal implications behind
many of these abductions, we find here that the Lake Anjikuni
incident is mockingly similar to a prophecy described in
Christian revelation.  In 1st Thessalonians, ch. 4 we read of a
prophecy of a physical 'catching up' of Christian believers into
the aerial realm, which will prophetically mark the beginning of
the 7-year period during which the majority of the apocalyptic
'judgments' of the book of Revelation will take place.  However,
this prophecy also states that accompanying this miracle there
would be another one involving the emptying of the graves of
earlier believers who would be regenerated or 'translated' into
incorruptible bodies.  We know that the Draconians often attempt
to COUNTERFEIT divine working, as in their claims to have created
man, or created Christ, their claim that man's evolution is in
'their' hands, their often unfulfilled prophecies of the future,
their attempts to pass themselves off as 'gods', as well as the
false 'miracles' of Fatima, etc.  If this is the case then one
might expect them to counterfeit this miracle which some refer to
as the 'rapture' as well.  Could this have been a type of 'dry
run' for a possible future counterfeit 'rapture'?  We must
remember that BOTH divinely-initiated interventions AS WELL AS
their 'counterfeit' counterparts do occur.  We should not ignore
the reality of one at the expense of the other.

     Whitley Strieber, who claimed to have had several abduction-
type experiences since a young age involving different types of
beings - both apparently physical and paraphysical, does not hold
to the idea that these creatures are originally from deep space. 
He believes that they MAY come from the nether regions of the
earth, and may have been here for millennia, being part of an
ancient conspiracy to occultically control or manipulate the
human race.  He is not certain exactly what the creatures were
behind his abductions, but he did suggest that the ancient
(fallen?) 'elementals' might be involved.  Strieber had some
comments of his own concerning the strange mass abduction near
the Lake Anjikuni area, in his book 'MAJESTIC', he stated:
     "The RCMP continues the case opened to this day.  A check
with the records department indicated that the matter remains
unsolved, and despite a search of the whole of Canada and
inquiries throughout the world, not a single trace of the MISSING
TWELVE HUNDRED MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN were ever found." 
Strieber related still another incident in this same book, of a
mysterious abduction (apparently) to underground regions:

     "...The first seemingly related case of disappearance in the
U.S. history (that is, 'related' to cases given by Strieber
earlier in his book, concerning people who were allegedly pursued
by unknown objects and experienced NEAR abductions yet managed to
escape - and others who were captured and never seen again,
except for a few who managed to witness the abductions taking
place - Branton)... took place on 23 September 1880 near the town
of Gallatin, Tennessee.  At approximately three-thirty on that
sunny afternoon, Mr. David Lang, a farmer, dematerialized in
front of five witnesses, including his wife, his two children,
his father-in-law and a local judge.
     "The father-in-law and the judge had just pulled up in a
carriage.  Mr. Lang moved toward them across a field followed by
his family.  Without warning, he simply ceased to exist.  There
was no cry, no sign of distress.  Mrs. Lang, distraught, rushed
up and pounded the ground where he had been walking.  All that
afternoon, and into the night the field was searched. 
Subsequently the county surveyor determined that there were no
hidden caves or sinkholes in the area of the disappearance.
     "The subsequent April, seven months later, the children
heard their father crying distantly UNDERNEATH the field.  He
seemed desperate and tortured, and was begging for help.  His
voice gradually died away and was not heard again.  Where he was
last seen, there was a circle of WITHERED yellow grass twenty
feet in diameter.
     "The family moved away from the farm.
     "It can be surmised that Mr. Lang was not removed above
ground, but rather was taken into the earth and kept alive there
for some months," Strieber continues, "judging from the cries
that were heard the next April.  What the poor man suffered
during that time, and what finally put him out of his misery, can
scarcely be imagined...
     "He was apparently left to languish in some subterranean
prison, presumably dying when his food and water ran out."

     Tennessee incidentally, HAS been known as an area which is
profusely undermined with natural underground caverns; for
instance, the GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS shows a photograph
of a large underground lake called the 'LOST SEA', which lies 300
ft. underground in the Craighead Caverns, near Sweetwater,
Tennessee.  This underground lake is one of the largest
officially recognized and was discovered in 1905 and covers an
area of 4 1/2 acres.  The fact that subsurface features such as
sinkholes, etc., were not 'apparent' beneath the field where Mr.
Lang disappeared, does not necessarily mean that such underground
chambers (whether natural or artificial) do not exist, since
geological and environmental changes might have covered up such
natural openings long ago.  Also, researcher David A. Lewis
described an account of an Indian chief who allegedly led his
tribe to a giant flora and fauna filled cavern called the 'Grand
God's Tepee' through a small cave north of Sweetwater, Tenn. 
Leaving the surface to escape the violence of the civil war, many
or most of them allegedly returned after it ended.
     
     British UFOlogist Timothy Good, in his book 'UFO REPORT'
(Avon Books., N.Y., 1989), describes the unfortunate fate of
several scientists who assisted in the development of the 'Star
Wars' defense system.  Apparently, they were either eliminated by
those they worked for so that they would not reveal what they
knew, or someone or something 'else' that was displeased with the
ultimate product of their efforts was responsible for their
tragic deaths.  Certainly, all of these scientists dying at once
cannot be explained in coincidental terms, whatever the case:
     "...Reports of suspicious deaths, darkly and deeply linked
to UFO's, persist, however, and continue to cause speculation. 
Word comes from Gordon Creighton, editor of the informative
FLYING SAUCER REVIEW, who notes a possible deathly tie in with
the U.S. 'Star Wars' program.  He wrote to me in Nov. 1988 as
follows:
     "'...here in Britain 22 scientists have reportedly either
taken their own lives or died in very strange or mysterious
circumstances.  And it seems that most... were engaged in British
work on behalf of, or related to the U.S. 'Star Wars' program. 
The British government, it seems, was trying to hush it up.  But
press statements here say that the U.S. government had put our
government on the spot and demanded a full inquiry.  So, quite
clearly, it is either the Russians or THEM...'
     "As many researchers have surmised, 'Star Wars', ostensibly
conceived as a defensive system against Russian missile attack,
may have had from it's beginning a 'defensive' UFO connection. 
Whatever the case, a 'mock test' in September, 1988, of an earth-
shattering warhead - much like 'Star Wars' in reverse - was
conducted at the Tonopah Test Range in Nevada.  Announced as a
proposed super-weapon designed to destroy Russian underground
command centers dug in solid rock down to 1,000 (feet), some UFO
analysts believe that the real target is not Russian but another
adversary deep down in cavernous installations IN NEVADA AND NEW
MEXICO.
     "According to the Pentagon, the proposed earth-penetrating
warhead is 'urgently needed'.  According to rumor-mills, an alien
race - the 'grays' - in their fortified underground laboratories,
are genetically experimenting with the human race.  Even more
ominous, rumors say that their intransigence today may lead to
new perils tomorrow."

     Evidence is beginning to mount that many of the human and
animal organs from mutilation victims are being used by an
entirely different 'alien' group than the reptilians-saurians,
although the sauroids are apparently assisting in the
construction of physical-biological 'forms' which can be
'possessed' by an insidious group of SPIRIT or SUPERNATURAL non-
physical entities, the 'infernals'.  The LEADING EDGE Magazine
for March, 1990, quoted one 'inside' source as saying that:
"These beings... have a physical presence generate biological
structures that function as containers for them... the aliens
manufacture containers for themselves... fabricate their own
bodies - using biologicals gained from humans and cattle..."

     A publication titled 'AMERICA'S MISSING & EXPLOITED
CHILDREN' (published by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, Washington D.C.)
made the following statement: "Even the most conservative
estimates suggest that several hundred thousand children are
missing within the course of the year." (in the United States). 
Also: "...In 1983, the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services put
the number at 1.5 million a year -- a figure that has been widely
circulated by private organizations.  But experts say roughly 95
percent of these are runaways -- many of whom return home within
days and are counted repeatedly if they run away more than once a
year."  This would apparently put the number of those who are
'abducted' in one way or another at around 75,000 per year...
STILL A CONSIDERABLY LARGE NUMBER.
     'Commander X', from his apparent though guarded vantage-
point within the Intelligence Community, claims to be privy to
much 'deep-level' inside information, as we have seen in earlier
writings.  One of the reports that crossed his desk involved an
experience of a woman who was 'abducted' and taken over 1000
miles to the underground facility below Dulce, New Mexico:
     "...One woman I have spoken with was abducted from the roof
of a New York City apartment building and apparently held
underground at the Dulce facility.  She was taken to a cabin in
the desert which was being used as a camouflaged entrance to the
'alien' base.  She was eventually escorted to the laboratories to
be used as a test subject, but at the last minute managed to
escape thanks to the aid of one of the Nordic-type, tall aliens,
who befriended her and showed her a secret way out, down an
unguarded shaft.
     "Back in the desert, she was rescued by members of the Blue
Berets, and eventually flown back to Manhattan.  During a de-
briefing session with the military, she was warned to remain
silent about her experiences.  Anyone hearing such a bizarre tale
would certainly think she had gone insane.  It was inferred she
could be committed to a mental institution at any time should she
refuse to go along with the cover-up conspiracy, which she was
told was being conducted 'for the sake of the country, and the
sake of the world!'" (right!!! - Branton)

     William Cooper has stated at a MUFON symposium in Las Vegas
that over 3,000 children disappear yearly in one section of
Manhattan alone.  Could there be some connection!?
      
     The accounts of disappearances around underground tunnels
and caverns are seemingly endless, as we see in the following
account from Harold T. Wilkins' book 'FLYING SAUCERS UNCENSORED',
p. 47:
     "June 7, 1954: Three German tourists who entered the vast
Lamprecht Cave, near Lofer, in the Salzburg mountain region of
Austria have never been found.  Their automobile was left locked
outside the cave.
     "...The above may very well be merely a case of amateur
speleologists getting lost in labyrinthine caves, although it is
unusual for THREE men to vanish in this fashion.  But I must risk
the charge of being accused of fancy and moonshine, when I say
that both in England and the United States, there are regions of
limestone caverns and mountains from which... queer phenomena
associated with white lights descending to ground level from
great altitudes have been reported!"

     And then we have the following cases as revealed by John
Keel in his book 'OUR HAUNTED PLANET', pp. 202-208:
     "There are periodic waves of disappearances which create
brief sensations in the newspapers and are quickly forgotten.  No
one ever manages to find out where these people have gone.  In
1912 five men, all unrelated, disappeared unaccountably in a
single week in Buffalo, New York.  Montreal, Canada, had a wave
of missing persons in July, 1883, and again in July, 1892.
     "Children vanish more frequently than any other group. 
We're not talking about ordinary runaways.  In August, 1869,
thirteen children vanished in Cork, Ireland.  No sign of
kidnapping or foul play.  The same month there was a wave of
disappearing children in Brussels, Belgium.  Another group of
youngsters melted away in Belfast in August, 1895.  And again in
August, 1920, eight girls (all under twelve years of age)
disappeared forever in Belfast...
     "Actually, children have been disappearing in large numbers
for centuries all over the world, and most of these cases have
remained unsolved.  In the Middle Ages it was popularly believed
that fairies and leprechauns frequently stole children away.  The
Indians of North and South America also have many myths and
stories about children being kidnapped by little people.  The
notion that parahumans kidnap children is deeply entrenched in
every culture...
     "The celebrated Pied Piper of Hameln, Germany, is more than
just a charming children's story.  A stranger actually did appear
in Hameln in the Middle Ages, and he lured away 150 children
never to be seen again.  The event is still commemorated with an
annual festival in Hameln (one of the old accounts says that the
children were taken to a subterranean cavern - Branton).
     "In A.D. 1212 a teenage boy in France, Stephen of Cloyes,
BEGAN TO HEAR VOICES which inspired him to collect together fifty
thousand children for the pathetic Children's Crusade.  They
marched off to do battle with the infidels and disappeared EN
MASSE.  The popular explanation is that they were all seized by
slavers.
     "...Ufologist Jerome Clark uncovered an extraordinary item
from an old 1939 newspaper.  'On a day in the late summer, 1939,
a military transport left the Marine Naval Air Station in San
Diego, California, for routine flight to Honolulu,' Clark wrote
in FLYING SAUCER REVIEW.  'About three hours afterwards several
urgent distress signals sounded from the plane and then silence. 
Later the craft came limping back to execute an emergency
landing.  When Air Station personnel entered the plane, they
found every man of the crew, including the copilot who had lived
long enough to pilot the craft back to its base, dead of unknown
causes (researcher Charles Berlitz related elsewhere that they
had been mutilated - Branton).
     Keel continues quoting from the old article: "Each of the
bodies carried large, gaping wounds, and the outside of the ship
was similarly marked.  Air Station men who touched parts of the
craft came down with a mysterious skin infection.
     "One of the most puzzling aspects of the whole affair was
that the .45 automatics carried by the pilot and copilot as
service pieces HAD BEEN EMPTIED, AND THE SHELLS LAY ON THE FLOOR.
A smell of rotten eggs pervaded the atmosphere inside the
plane...Mysterious skin infections and rotten egg odors (hydrogen
sulfide) are phenomena familiar to all UFO researchers.  It would
seem that the transport was attacked--apparently without
provocation--by some sort of strange aerial intruder."

     The following account, taken from the May, 1946 issue of
AMAZING STORIES (pp. 171-173) seems to contain information which
would explain many of the 'missing pieces' of the overall 'Men In
Black' phenomena.  At least some of the 'MIB' have been variously
described as 'androidal' like beings, although as John Keel has
stated some seem to portray reptilian aspects, and in a few cases
obviously human entities have been described.  Christa Tilton
allegedly encountered some 'MIB' in a black auto near Boynton
Canyon, near Sedona, Arizona.  She described them as follows:
"The men did not look right.  Their faces had no expression on
them whatsoever.  They looked like they were wearing chalky tan
makeup.  Their movements were robot-like and unearthly."  The
AMAZING STORIES letter, which was quite lengthy and excerpts of
which we quote below, was submitted by a Mr. Edward John of (at
the time) 475 Fell St., San Francisco, CA.:  
     "Sirs... I have enjoyed your stories for many years as I
have read AMAZING since the first issue back in 1928 if I
remember right.
     "...I think I can show you an entrance to this subterranean
city that he (Shaver) has written about several issues back. 
Here is what happened to me and you may judge for yourself.  In
1931 my mother and I took up a section of land as a cattle
raising homestead from the U.S. Government and naturally it was
not a choice piece... a person who turned out to be our
nearest neighbor gave us some hints and as the place was only six
miles from his we stayed at his ranch until we built our house. 
Then we moved into our own and all in all we stayed there about
two years before we quit; and now I will relate the things that
caused us to quit, which at the time I did not know much about,
but since Mr. Shaver wrote, now I know and marvel that we managed
to stand two years without getting killed by these things from
below.
     "As a note of interest I have had to use 30,000 rounds of
ammunition in the period and perhaps that is why we are still
here.  At night I would sit up fully dressed all night with a
rifle in my hands, ready, and an extra one by my side.  In about
five hours after dark I would hear things moving outside the
house and after a while something would try to open the door
quietly and I would wait until I saw the knob turn, then let go a
clip right through the door and then pull it open and look around
outside and there was nothing to be seen.  After a couple of
nights like that, that performance would stop and something new
would be tried.
     "There are too many incidents to be told in one letter, the
best one was the two disappearing automobiles, which happened at
about ten at night over at the neighbor's place.  It was as
follows: the neighbor and we were sitting on the porch after
supper when he saw headlights come over the hill to the fence
then along the fence for about half a mile, then go out and that
was all that night.  So next morning we went to the trail along
the fence and there were tire tracks of seven inch width tires
and they went along the fence into the box canyon and right up
against a smooth boulder about 20 feet in diameter and ended
there.  Now the car could not turn around anywhere in that place
because the road is a trail five feet wide and one side is
against our neighbor's fence, which was not damaged and the other
was a steep hill that no car could even make in compound low. 
You know, we have a few mountains here, and as far as backing out
I tried that myself in the daytime with help and I could not
steer a straight enough path without crossing my other marks so
they did not back out or we would have trailed them as my
neighbor has lived around there since 1848 and he sure knew his
tracking.  We never did get an answer to the question of where
did the cars go.
     "The cars were very large and black and very heavy and now
that I compare them they were about twenty years ahead of
anything I have ever seen anywhere and I had worked in the auto
business for about five years before we took up the land.  They
were silent, smooth, no wavering of the lights and the trail is
extremely rough; in places it has hollows a yard deep, but these
cars went through at about 25 mph, and it would even wreck a jeep
to do that, so you figure it out and let me know the answer if
you can.  By wavering of lights, I mean that the beams were
steady and not flashing up and down as an ordinary car would do
when a rough road is traveled.
     "I have been away from there since 1933, but just about
three months ago, I drove through with a friend for safety and my
place is razed to the ground and everything that was made by
human hands has been carried off even the old tin cans, and the
place would not be noticed unless you knew where is was.  The
Coast and Geodetic survey had a marker near my house in the front
yard and even that is gone; who would want to take a concrete
marker and carry it away?
     "...after two weeks, you can hear insects running on the
ground, (also) forest fires will not burn there.  They burnt
250,000 acres, then burnt all around this area; and that stopped
the forest rangers.  They never could understand because most of
it is on the slope of a mountain and it should have gone, but
they saw that the wind came down and blew from the top down and
blew North, South, East and West at once and that was the only
time that the wind ever blew there.
     "Also you can detect an atmosphere of fear within 30 miles
of the area and you will not get a statement from anyone who
lives around there and the people in the valleys are afraid of
the people in the hills.  One farmer erected 20 foot barbed wire
fences and a heavy gate across the road that leads to my old
place.  The gate would take a tank to knock down, so maybe there
is something there, after all.
     "It is located 110 miles north of San Francisco in Mendocino
county and is directly on the old Pieta toll road that ran
between Hopland and Lakeport in Lake county of which Clear Lake
is quite a summer resort.  If you care to look it up on a map get
a good auto road map and look due south off the road midway
between towns and you will note an area with no roads bounded by
Sonoma Lake and lower Mendocino counties and there is it.  If you
wish to go there, be sure that enough people know where you went.
Maybe they will be able to find you.  There have been several
disappearances along that stretch of road, even trucks have
vanished.  All the U.S. Government's.
     "The U.S. Government has noted the area as rough,
unsurveyable and UNEXPLORED...
     "Personally I do not care to go near the place, but if there
is some way of driving the things out I would help if I can so
that someone else could live there safely.
     "...Also I forgot to mention there is a cave on the property
that has steps leading down and there is no sound when a rock is
thrown in.  I have never seen it, but I understand that it is
there... Also, several people have died of heart failure and some
have gone insane, I found out later.
     "I think the thing that saved us was the fact that I am not
surprised at anything and that I am quick to shoot and I can
shoot without sighting and by ear and not having the thought of
shooting fixed so that the things would be warned.  After that
place, I was able to outshoot U.S. Marine sharpshooters.  I tried
competing in a match and I just never missed any target at any
range.  If I could see it, I could hit it, 5 out of 5.  I have
tried practice machine guns at plane models and I hit 3 out of 5
at speeds up to 700 mph scale without using the sights.  So the
old ranch gave me something worthwhile after all.
     "Due to my physical condition, I cannot get into any armed
forces, so that talent is wasted, for you see I have a bad leg
and cannot walk more than a mile at a time.  Since I left the
ranch I have been in the radio business and have not owned a gun
since '34, because as long as I stay away from there I don't need
one..."

     The 'I.N.F.O. JOURNAL' (box 367., Arlington, VA,  22210), a
publication devoted to 'Fortean' research, Vol. IV, No. 2 issue,
related one of the most frightening and disturbing accounts of
subterranean abduction that we have come across yet.  The
article, titled 'MOUNTAIN OF DEATH' and written by David D.
Browne, originally appeared in the June 1972 issue of WALKABOUT,
published in Sydney, Australia:

     "Black Mountain comes almost as a shock when you see it
first.
     "Traveling by bus just south of Cooktown, North Queensland
(Australia), a bend in the road suddenly discloses it and the
visual impact can bring an involuntary exclamation, as you see it
-- black, bare and sinister, a 1,000 ft. high pile of enormous
boulders two miles long, rearing out of the rain-forest.
     "This is 'the Mountain of Death.'  Aborigines will not go
near it.  An ancient legend warns them of danger.  White men fear
it too, because of the numbers of men who have gone there and
disappeared without a trace, as if the earth -- or the mountain -
- had swallowed them.  Birds and animals shun the area.
     "The rocks give off a curious metallic ring when struck, and
the only sound is the croaking of countless frogs sheltered in
the depths where the great granite boulders lie against each
other.
     "In Brisbane's Public Library, a yellowing newspaper cutting
tells some of the story:
     "'Grim tragedy has been associated with the mountain ever
since it has been known to white man.
     "'Three men with horses completely disappeared at the
mountain.  They vanished as if the earth had opened and swallowed
them up, for absolutely no trace of them has ever been
discovered, although police and backtrackers and hundreds of
local residents scoured the mountain and surrounding country.'
     "Then following the names and occupations of several others
who disappeared, and the dates of their disappearance.  The
cutting continues:
     "'This constitutes one of the most amazing stories in the
police history of the far north, for not one of the mysteries has
been solved and probably never will be.'
     "Another newspaper cutting, signed Nancy Francis, reads:
     "'The formation of these mountains is unique; their
appearance grotesque.  They are mountains of huge boulders full
of chasms that go down to unsounded depths.  Only a few rock
wallabies and a few turkeys live near these grim, forbidding
hills.  The Aborigines regard the Black Mountains with dread.'
     "In the files of the Cooktown police, dating back 25 years,
there is a report made by a Sergeant of Police who discussed the
mountain with a man whom he refers to as Mac.  Mac began:
     "'Know anything about Black Mountain, or so-called 'Mountain
of Death'?  Its aboriginal name is Kalcajagga.'
     "'What does it look like at close quarters?' I asked.
     "'Just a mass of tumbled granite blocks; hardly any
vegetation.  The only living things there are black rock
wallabies and enormous pythons 16 feet or more long and able to
swallow a wallaby whole.  The ridge is honeycombed with caves,
nearly all unexplored.  They dip down below ground level but
nobody knows their extent or what they contain.'
     "The latest fatalities, he reported, had occurred only a few
years earlier when two young men set out to solve the riddle of
earlier disappearances in the caves.  They were never heard of
again.  Two black trackers who tried to trace them disappeared
too.
     "Then Mac went back to the beginning of the mountain's grim
story.
     "The first-known fatality was that of a carrier named
Grayner, in 1977.  He had been searching on horseback for strayed
bullocks when he, with his horse and bullocks, vanished without a
trace.  Thirteen years later, Constable Ryan, stationed at
Cooktown, tracked a 'wanted' man to the scrub at the foot of the
mountain.  Other trackers followed his trail to the entrance of
one of the caves, but he was never seen again.  Nor was the
'wanted' man.
     "More recently a gold prospector named Renn was added to the
list of mysterious disappearances.
     "Well-organized police teams with trackers combed the whole
area for weeks without finding him.
     "Then there was the case of Harry Owens, a station owner
from Oakley Creek.  One Sunday morning he rode over towards Black
Mountain looking for strayed cattle.  When he didn't return on
time his partner, George Hawkins, alerted the police then went
out to look for him himself.  But by the time the police joined
in the search, Hawkins had also disappeared.  Two of the native
police trackers entered one of the caves.  ONLY ONE OF THEM CAME
OUT.  He was so unnerved by what seemed to have been an
experience of terror that he could give no clear account of what
happened to them both.
     "Mac even knew a white men who had penetrated the caves and
lived to tell the tale, and produced a newspaper cutting of his
story.  It read:
     "'Armed with a revolver and a strong electric torch I
stepped into the opening.  Like other Black Mountain caverns it
dipped steeply downwards, narrowing as it went.
     "'Suddenly I found myself facing a solid wall of rock, but
to the right there was a passageway just large enough for me to
enter in a stooping position.  I moved along it carefully for
several yards.  The floor was fairly level, the walls of very
smooth granite.  The passage twisted this way and that, always
sloping deeper into the earth.
     "'Presently I began to feel uneasy.  A huge bat beat its
wings against me as it passed, but I forced myself to push on. 
Soon my nostrils were filled WITH A SICKLY, MUSTY STENCH.  THEN
MY TORCH WENT OUT.
     "'I was in total darkness.  It was inky black.  From
somewhere that seemed like the bowels of the earth I could hear
faint moaning of bats.
     "'I began to get panicky and I groped and floundered back
the way I thought I had come.  My arms and legs bleeding from
bumps with unseen rocks.  My outstretched hands clawed at space
where I expected solid wall and floor.  At one stage where I
wandered into a side passage I came to what was undoubtedly the
brink of a precipice, judging by the echoes.
     "'The air was FOUL and I felt increasing DIZZINESS.
     "'Terrifying thoughts were racing through my mind about
giant rock pythons I have often seen around Black Mountain.
     "'As I crawled along, getting weaker and losing all hope of
ever getting out alive, I saw a tiny streak of light.  It gave me
super strength to worm my way towards a small cave mouth half a
mile from the one I had entered.
     "'Reaching the open air, I gulped in lungfulls of it and
fell down exhausted.
     "'I found I had been underground for five hours, most of the
time on my hands and knees.  A king's ransom would not induce me
to enter those caves again...'
     "Such are some of the weird stories told of the mountain.
     "These and the extraordinary structure of the mountain
itself give rise to many questions, scientific and otherwise.
     "On the scientific aspect, the following comments come from
a member of the staff of the James Cook University of North
Queensland, Dept. of Geology, Associate Professor P.J.
Stephenson.
     "He says, 'I have visited and climbed the mountain
concerned.  It is composed of huge granite boulders covered with
black lichen.  The complete black surface coating may be uncommon
but the boulder pile is less so.  Near Chillagoe and at several
other localities in north Queensland similar phenomena exist.
     "'The occurrences are somewhat puzzling because of their
relative rarity.  However, they must have been produced by rapid
erosion of the 'skeletal' soil profile.  Many soil profiles
contain fresh rock 'kernels' in them and removal of the soil
component would produce a boulder pile.  But such removal takes
place so slowly the 'kernels' also weather completely...'   
     "There are still some practical questions to ask, however.
     "What really did happen to those people who at various times
in the last hundred years, have been said to disappear, vanish
without a trace?
     "...Any party that decides to unravel the mystery of the
mountain will need to be very carefully organized and equipped to
meet any hazard, likely or unlikely -- not forgetting the
possibility of meeting a very real python.  CR: Simpson."
      
     In apparent relation to William Cooper's allegations
concerning the connections between the Kennedy assassination, MJ-
12, UFO's and so on we have the following very interesting yet
very disturbing 'connection' which was related by John Keel in
his book 'OUR HAUNTED PLANET' (1968., Fawcett Crest., Greenwich,
Conn.):
     "In his detailed report on the Maury Island UFO (incident)
of 1947, Kenneth Arnold also describes meeting a small, dark
foreign looking man who was tinkering with the motor on a beat-up
boat in TACOMA HARBOR.  Ray Palmer, editor of 'AMAZING STORIES'
in Chicago, had commissioned Arnold to investigate the puzzling
Maury Island affair, which began when a 'donut-shaped object' had
rained 'slag' onto a boat near Maury Island.  Pieces of that slag
had killed a dog aboard the boat and slightly injured a boy, the
son of Harold Dahl, who was piloting it.  Early the next morning,
according to Dahl's story, a 1947 Buick drove up to his home and
a black-suited man of medium height visited him.  This man, Dahl
said, recited in detail everything that had happened the day
before AS IF HE HAD BEEN THERE.  Then he warned Dahl not to
discuss his sighting to anyone, hinting that if he did there
might be unpleasant repercussions which would affect him and his
family.  Since Dahl and the others had not yet told anyone of
their sighting, and since UFOs were still publicly unknown
(Arnold's sighting over Mount Rainier and the attendant publicity
did not occur until three days later), Dahl was naturally
nonplussed by his strange visitor.  This was the first modern MIB
report.
     "Dahl's boss, FRED L. CRISMAN (he also owned the boat),
became a central figure in the mystery.  DAHL HIMSELF VANISHED
SOON AFTER HIS INTERVIEW WITH ARNOLD, and the efforts by later
investigators (such as Harold T. Wilkins, a British author) have
failed to locate him.  Crisman had been A FLIER IN WORLD WAR II,
and he was suddenly RECALLED into the service in 1947, FLOWN TO
ALASKA, and later stationed in Greenland.  In recent years
amateur sleuths engaged in investigating the alleged conspiracy
to assassinate President John F. Kennedy have tried to implicate
CRISMAN.  District Attorney JAMES GARRISON of New Orleans
subpoenaed one FRED LEE CRISMAN of TACOMA, WASHINGTON, to testify
before the Grand Jury listening to Garrison's evidence against
Clay Shaw (as is portrayed in the best-selling movie 'JFK' -
Branton), according to wire service stories in November, 1968. 
Crisman was identified as a radio announcer, but Garrison's
investigations implied that HE WAS EITHER A MEMBER OF THE CIA OR
HAD BEEN 'ENGAGED IN UNDERCOVER ACTIVITY FOR A PART OF THE
INDUSTRIAL WARFARE COMPLEX.'  He allegedly operated under a cover
as a preacher and was 'engaged in work to help Gypsies.'  These
stories caused a chain reaction in UFO circles, since UFO
believers have long accused the CIA of being somehow connected
with the flying saucer mystery.  Of course, the CIA was in its
infancy in 1947 at the time of the Maury Island case and was then
largely staffed by NAVAL personnel from World War II intelligence
units.
     "Clay Shaw was tried early in 1969, accused by Garrison of
having conspired to murder President Kennedy.  He was found
innocent and freed.  The exact nature of Crisman's testimony
before the Grand Jury IS NOT KNOWN.  He did not testify at the
actual trial...
     "The Maury Island case fell apart in Arnold's hands.  The
slag samples given to him by Dahl and Crisman WERE SWITCHED BY
SOMEONE; two investigating Air Force officers, Brown and
Davidson, WERE KILLED WHEN THEIR PLANE CRASHED shortly after
leaving Tacoma; DAHL VANISHED; Crisman was literally exiled to
Greenland for two years; Tacoma newsman Paul Lance, who helped
Arnold in his investigation, DIED SUDDENLY A SHORT TIME LATER. 
Palmer claims that a cigar box filled with original slag samples
WAS STOLEN from his Chicago office soon afterwards.
     "At one point Ted Morello of the United Press took Arnold
aside and told him:
     "'You're involved in something that is beyond our power here
to find out anything about... We tried to find out information at
McChord Field (the Tacoma Air Force base) and drew a blank, and
we have informants there who practically smell the runaways for
news... We've exhausted every avenue attempting to piece what has
happened together so it makes some sense... I'm just going to
give you some sound advice.  Get out of this town until whatever
it is blows over.'
     "Arnold got into his private plane and headed for home.  He
stopped in Pendleton, Oregon, to refuel, and shortly after he
took off again, HIS ENGINE STOPPED COLD.  Only quick thinking and
expert flying saved him from a serious crash..."  

     The following locations are areas where, according to
various sources, actual conflicts have taken place between humans
and, in most cases, sauroid-reptilian beings.  Most of these
conflicts have taken place within or near entrances to underlying
artificial tunnels or natural cavern systems.
     Each site will be NAMED, followed by the TYPE of conflict
(ranging from abductions or mutilations against humans by the
saurians-reptilians; to battles or attacks upon the saurians by
human forces); Next, the specific SITE of the 'conflict';
followed by a DESCRIPTION of the human and alien beings involved
in the conflict;  And finally the SOURCE of the information. 
Although many such conflicts have allegedly taken place in other
countries, the highest concentrations seem to have occurred in
the U.S., which will be the major focus of this list.  These sites

     Still another apparent 'casualty' of this cosmic warfare
between Man-kind and the serpent race(!?) was described in a
letter addressed to SEARCH Magazine, which appeared in it's
September, 1960 issue:
     "Dear Rap (i.e. Raymond A. Palmer):
     "I have been following your pursuits of UFO(s)... through
your magazines for some time with consuming interest, especially
the Shaver Mystery.  There's an item or two concerning this that
I have been intending to write you about for some time. 
Sometimes during the year about 1946 to 1947 I heard that Dr.
William Beebee wrote an article published in the 'Atlantic
Monthly' in which he made a remark about 'the coming invasion of
the earth by the underground race.'  When I remarked on this to a
fellow worker of mine he said 'Isn't he the scientist -
oceanographer who disappeared?'  I was startled by his sudden
question and said that I didn't know, and asked if he knew
anything of the circumstances surrounding his disappearance.  He
said he understood or heard that on one of Dr. Beebee's descents
to the ocean floor OFF THE COAST OF FLORIDA, he was missing from
the inside the diving bell when it was brought up!  Do you have
anything on this?  I had been wanting to look for some
corroboration of this to see if it could be true or if the
present whereabouts of William Beebee is known.  Then I am
reminded of the disappearance of another prominent person, the
world traveler and explorer Richard Halliburton.  I am sure I
read only a few years ago that he was presumed to be lost at Sea
in a storm...."
     
     The number of 'casualties' keep pouring in...
