     In his book 'THE GOLD OF THE GODS', Erich von Danniken
relates some interesting thoughts concerning an ancient tunnel
system that had been discovered below the mountains and jungles
of Ecuador which allegedly consist of straight 'glazed' tunnels
with intermittent 'air shafts' that stretch for hundreds of
miles.  Although he has come under criticism from many
researchers for his tendency to embellish certain accounts, and
twist archeological and historical facts in an attempt to support
his own pet theories, some of his research is nevertheless
interesting and reliable enough to include here.  On pp. 59-60 of
this particular work, he stated: "...I can refute the objection
that the tunnel-builders must have 'betrayed' themselves by the
enormous quantities of debris excavated while making the tunnels.
As I credit them with an advanced technology, they were
presumably equipped with a THERMAL DRILL of the kind described in
DER SPIEGAL for 3 April, 1972, which reported it as the latest
discovery.  The scientists of the U.S. Laboratory for Atomic
Research at Los Alamos spent a year and a half developing the
thermal drill.  It has nothing in common with ordinary drills.
The tip of the drill is made of wolfram and heated by a graphite
heating element.  There is no longer any waste material from the
hole being drilled.  The thermal drill melts the rock through
which it bores and presses it against the walls, where it cools
down.  As DER SPIEGAL related, the first test-model bored almost
soundlessly through blocks of stone 12 ft. thick.  At Los Alamos
they are now planning the construction of a thermal drill that is
powered by a mini atomic reactor and eats into the earth like a
mole, in the form of an armored vehicle.  This drill is intended
to pierce the earth's crust, which is about 25 miles thick (in
some places - Branton), and take samples of the molten magma that
lies underneath it..."

     An analysis of UFO occupant reports prepared for the Center
for UFO Studies (AN ANALYSIS OF THE FALL 1973 UFO/HUMANOID WAVE,
by Dave Webb.  Center for UFO Studies., Evanston, ILL  1976.  p.
52) states that twenty-seven "dwarf" cases were reported to CUFOS
in 1973.  One such case allegedly involved another family's CE-
III on October 16, 1973, at Lehi, Utah.  Using hypnosis, Dr.
James Harder, consultant for the Aerial Phenomena Research
Organization (APRO), elicited from one of the witnesses the
following description:  The beings were slightly over four feet
tall, very thin, with large slanted eyes.  Their arms were long
and their hands GLOVED and CLAWLIKE, with a diminutive thumb.
They were wearing what appeared to be glowing clothing with Sam
Brown-like belts!

     Although this particular 'File' is reserved for reports of
subsurface phenomena, we will not exclude these to planet earth
alone.  There is much evidence that the underground regions of
other planets, or possibly even the moons of this and other
planets, may play a part in the "Grand Scenario".  Frank Edwards,
in his 'STRANGE WORLD' (Lyle Stuart Co., N.Y.  1964.  pp. 329-
330) gives the following revelations under the heading, "THE
MYSTERIOUS MOONS OF MARS":  "Now that man has tools which will
enable him to obtain detailed information by near approaches to
Mars, we may expect, within the next few years, to learn whether
Mars is inhabited by intelligent beings, and, if so, what they
look like and how they live.  Among the factors which have
focused so much of our time and talent on Mars are the two tiny
satellites which orbit the planet--where--prior to 1877--no
satellites had ever been seen before (In other words, about the
time the canals of Mars were mysteriously starting to
"disappear", new satellites began appearing on the scene -
Branton).  The famous astronomers Herschel and Lasselle had
excellent telescopes at their disposal--so good that they used
them to DISCOVER THE MOONS OF URANUS.  Yet neither these men, nor
hundreds of other astronomers who observed the planets, were able
to see any satellites around Mars.  Then in one week in 1877,
Asaph Hall found that Mars had two satellites where none had been
seen before.  Furthermore, he found that the satellites were tiny
but bright...brighter than the planet itself...as though they
were made of some material other than that of Mars.  It is also
worth noting that not only do these two Martian satellites sweep
around the planet at a very high speed but they travel in
different directions...factors which had led to the suspicion
that they are artificial.  This is the theory advanced by Soviet
astronomer I. S. Schklovsky, who points out that the Martian
satellite known as Phobos exhibits a strange acceleration in its
orbit, an irregularity which would be expected if the satellite
were in reality a huge metal sphere that was hollow.  The same
difference in speed, however, would be impossible for a natural
astronomical body.  Therefore, says Dr. Schklovsky, at least one
of the moons of Mars IS NOT A NATURAL OBJECT, but an artificial
satellite placed in orbit around the 'red' planet in 1877, or
shortly before that time.  When we stop to think of the
discovery of the Martian moons in 1877--and of the mass of
phenomena noted on our moon between 1879 and 1889--the conviction
develops that if we discover life on Mars...we may also discover
that we are merely returning a visit."

     An article in the Dec. 1, 1968 issue of THE PEOPLE
(British), titled "Something Quare Down The Tunnel!", reported on
a strange, dark, 7 ft. tall creature which was briefly seen by
workers during the construction of London's New Victoria tube
line.

     The MELBOURNE SUN (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia), August
25, 1954 issue, carried an article titled "THE NEW SATELLITES",
which stated: "Two meteors (asteroids?) had become satellites of
the earth and WERE REVOLVING WITH IT 400 to 600 miles out in
space, the latest issue of the American Magazine 'AVIATION WEEK'
said yesterday.  The magazine said that the discovery of the
satellites threw the air force into confusion this summer.  Alarm
over the sightings ended only after they had been identified as
natural rather than manmade."  Another possibility may be that
they were both 'engineered' natural objects such as hollowed-out
asteroids taken from the asteroid belt.  The simultaneous arrival
of two large asteroids, combined with the fact that both took up
a geo-synchronous (synchronized with the revolving of the earth
and positioned always over a particular geographical location)
orbit, would be an incredible coincidence indeed.

     In 'THE KATHA SARIT SAGARA (THE OCEAN OF STORY)', edited by
Bhatta Somadeva., New Delhi, India., 1968., this Ten Volume
collection of ancient East Indian lore gives a description of the
7-leveled underworld of 'Patala', which is the traditional abode
of the Nagas, or the Serpent Race.  Vol. 6, pp. 108-112, gives a
legend concerning the journey of a King by the name of Bhunandana
to this underworld region.  Although most of the story is
probably fiction, it is nevertheless a bizarre reflection of the
ideas which it's writer or writers, early Hindu's, had concerning
this underworld.  Take note that some of the legend seems to
parallel certain ideas concerning the reptilian netherworld which
have appeared in other accounts.  Whether this legend has any
direct connection with actual alleged scenarios such as that
taking place deep below Dulce, New Mexico, remains to be seen.
We will let the reader make their own determination.  The legend,
as it appeared in 'THE OCEAN OF STORY', states that: "There are
on this earth many openings leading into the lower regions; but
there is one great and famous one is Kasmira made by Maya... even
now the place is called by the two names Peak of Pradyumna and
Hill of Sarika... the king (Bhunandana) entered with... his
pupils, and marched along the road to Patala for five days and
five nights.  And on the sixth day they all crossed the Ganges of
the lower regions."  The king told his followers, "This is the
dwelling of the god Siva (as the reader may recall, Siva or Shiva
is an apparently supernatural being that has been identified with
the Serpent Race of the 'Nagas', as related in Andrew Tomas' book
'ON THE SHORES OF ENDLESS WORLDS' and elsewhere - Branton), who
inhabits the lower regions in the form of Hatakesvara, and whose
praises are sung in the three worlds..."  Could the 'three'
worlds be the subterran, terran and exterran 'worlds'?  In the
legend the underworld of Patala gave off the impression of being
some kind of underworld paradise, yet the hero's of the story
soon learn that such 'beauty' is only superficial, and that
inwardly things were just the opposite.  One of the kings
servants, becoming hungry, eats a fruit from one of the
subterranean trees and "...as soon as he had eaten it, he became
rigid and motionless."  At one point in the journey the king
encounters a being that appeared to him in the form of a woman,
and this being takes him to an underground garden and, according
to the legend, "...then she sat down with him on the brink of a
tank filled with wine, and with the blood and fat of corpses,
that hung from trees on its banks, and she offered the king a
goblet, full of the fat and wine, to drink, but he would not
accept the loathsome compound.  And she kept saying earnestly to
the king: 'You will not prosper if you reject my beverage.'  But
he answered: 'I certainly will not drink that undrinkable
compound, whatever may happen.'"  In apparent response to his
refusal, instead of declaring that he had passed some test,
'she' then pours out the grotesque compound over his head and
departs, and shortly afterwards he was expelled from Patala, the
legendary home of the Nagas or the Serpent Race (this particular
legend did not refer to the Naga's as the inhabitants of Patala,
as most Hindu legends do, that is of course unless the 'woman'
was actually a Naga in disguise.  Or could 'she' have been a
sorceress who lived in that dark underworld realm?  This is
assuming of course that there is some seed of truth behind this
tale).  Whether fantasy or reality, the 'king' should be
commended for resisting the bloody 'drink', and may have been
fortunate that he himself did not end up as 'food' for these
false 'gods' of the underworld.  This is, again, assuming that
there is a fire of truth behind the 'smoke' of such tales.

     Manly P. Hall, who has written numerous books on Freemasonry
and other occult themes, in his volume 'MAN, THE GRAND SYMBOL OF
THE MYSTERIES' (Manly P. Hall Pub. Co., Los Angeles, CA, 1932, p.
160) states: "The most secret rituals of ancient initiation were
performed in subterranean crypts, which were called 'caverns of
the Mysteries.'  In the Gothic rites, the final ceremony in which
the new initiate was invested with the insignia of his order took
place in a high, vaulted, cavernous chamber in the presence of
the luminous statue of Balder (a Nordic 'deity')... Here also are
the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus and the cave-dwelling Rishis of
India--the seven original beings who in the mythology of Central
America were the cave-born progenitors of the (Central American)
races." (Note: The cave-dwelling Rishis are said to live largely
in Ellora, India where there are alleged to be tunnel entrances
to an underground system which connects with Elephanta and the
Ajunta Caverns - Branton)

     One source stated some years ago that the Texas Instruments
plant near Dallas, Texas, had discovered a system of ancient
tunnels and caverns deep below the T. I. Complex there
(discovered via experimental electronic earth-sounding probes? -
merely a suggestion), and have secretly been investigating these
tunnels for some time.  This source revealed the name and address
of one woman T.I. worker who allegedly told this source about the
underground system.  A letter was sent to this woman asking if
she would confirm or deny the story, but no response has been
forthcoming.  These sources alleged that 'small' hominoid beings
were discovered in the tunnels, some of which were being held in
captivity in 'cage-like' enclosures for research purposes
(whether 'they' were humanoid or sauroid was not mentioned, other
than that they tended towards a greenish-like skin color).
Certain 'inner earth' researchers were allegedly contacted by the
company and allowed entrance into these tunnels for the purpose
of getting their opinion and views on who or what these beings
were.  Due to the lack of solid confirming evidence as yet, the
reader should take these reports with a grain of salt for now.

     Archaeologists have in recent years broken through into vast
and ancient labyrinthine underground cities in Turkey.  Although
several 'cities' have been found, the largest seems to lie
beneath Derenkuyu.  These underground villages are quite
extensive, with many levels, and in some places contain tunnels
only 3 or 4 ft. in diameter (apparently constructed this way for
defense purpose) that lead to other chambers or other levels.
According to tradition, many of these cities were utilized by
early Christians escaping persecution.  It is not known however
whether the Christians built the cities or whether the
underground villages are of more ancient origin.  According to
Kurt Braun, in his article 'Underground Civilization Attacks
German Archaeologists', in 'BEYOND REALITY' (Dec. 1968); some men
who were exploring the lower depths of the Derenkuyu labyrinth
were at one point 'attacked' by tall, albino-like humans.  Since
most of the underground 'cities' have not been fully explored it
is uncertain just how extensive they are or if they connect lower
down.

     John A. Keel, in his book, 'THE EIGHTH TOWER' (Saturday
Review Press., N.Y., 1975), pp. 53-54,129, stated:  "...A woman
in Gaffney, South Carolina, was plagued by eerie hums and strange
mechanical sounds in the mid-1960s.  She complained to the local
police that someone was digging tunnels under her house, but a
thorough investigation yielded nothing... During my own
investigations into the mountains of northern New Jersey, I
wandered uncomfortably through old caves half-filled with water
after local residents had told me of hearing sounds of pulsing
machines... To the UFO cultists these sounds are supposed to be
coming from the marvelous space ships of mysterious
extraterrestrial travelers.  Another group (and it is a large
group) sees these as evidence of the existence of 'Deros'--
detrimental robots--who live in the bowels of the earth and are
up to no good... In May 1969 Jose Antonio, a Brazilian soldier,
underwent (an) experience when he was kidnapped by a group of
tiny humanoids, and transported to a cavernlike room of stone.
There his captors offered him a drink from a stone cube with a
pyramidal cavity in the center.  It was a dark green liquid, with
a bitter taste.  But he said he felt better after drinking it."

     In his book 'ON THE SHORES OF ENDLESS WORLDS' (Souvenir
Press), Andrew Tomas, in his chapter "Labyrinths and Serpents",
states: "...According to legend, King Minos of Crete ordered his
architect Daedalus to construct the labyrinth, a maze of passages
so ingeniously devised that even the builder himself could not
find his way without a plan.  In the center lived the Minotaur,
half bull, half human, to whom the Greeks sent seven youths and
seven maidens as a tribute every nine years.  The Minotaur was
slain by Theseus who was able to find his way out of the
labyrinth thanks to a ball of thread given to him by Ariadne.
This myth has been interpreted as an historical record of the
construction of the palace of Minos in Knossos which contains
innumerable galleries and rooms.  On the other hand, this myth
may have an entirely different interpretation, similar to a
cryptogram, which conceals the existence of a secret repository
of underground chambers and passages..."  Although this might
seem to be just a "legend", there are alleged accounts of actual
encounters with paraphysical (part supernatural, part physical)
"demonic" creatures such as the satyres, centuars, and Minotaurs,
etc. which have been described in Greek mythology.  Such
encounters often involve paraphysical "poltergeist-like"
phenomena and manipulation of mind and matter.  According to some
sources, a race of beings possessing a combination of humanoid,
angelic and animal-like characteristics pre-dated Adamic
civilization and were involved in the original rebellion and
conspiracy against the Creator.  The creatures mentioned in the
9th chapter of the book of Revelation "may" be this type of
demonic or fallen entity.  These were apparently distinct from
the purely spiritual angelic and fallen angelic beings.
Whether the following account describes an encounter with such a
fallen race(s) remains to be seen.  The letter we quote here
appeared in the Winter, 1962 issue of THE HIDDEN WORLD, one of
several publications which grew out of the "Shaver Mystery"
controversy of the late 1940's:

     "Mr. Richard Shaver:  Hoping this letter finds you in the
best of health.  My name is Frank J. Mezta.  I live in the County
of Imperial Valley, City of Calexico, California.

     "Through accident I happened to stumble into your book
HIDDEN WORLD issue No. A-1 and just recently A-2.  I sometimes
wonder if it was luck or deliberate action on the part of a tero.
All my life, I have been looking and asking for certain, unsolved
and unanswered questions regarding civilization, our ancestors
and the beginning of time.  I believe your book gave me the best
answers.  Let me tell you a few of my expeditions.

     "Two years ago, we went treasure hunting in the interior of
Mexico, which turned out to be a flop.  But in that excursion
some strange things happened to us, which at the time we wrote
off as superstition.  We went to this place where we were
supposed to enter; but suddenly a fright with chills came over
me, something I had never felt before.  Something like a sixth
sense, like if I knew something was going to happen to me.  I
didn't go in and neither did anybody else.  Next day we
approached the cave again, only this time I wasn't afraid and I
let the group inside.  This cave was tremendous in size, and
leading passages everywhere.  Some of these passages or chambers,
sometimes being 30 ft. high and 100 ft. long (contained)
connecting tunnels.  We finally gave up, but in retreating we
found two leading passages instead of the one we had entered.
This startled us, and we set to investigate the second tunnel.
It just kept winding and going down so we finally gave up and got
out of there.

     "When we got back to the village we struck a conversation
with two Mexican Indians, and they told us that whatever we did,
not to go into the enchanted caves.  We got curious and asked
them where these so called enchanted caves were.  They gave us
directions and that was exactly where we had entered a few days
ago.  We asked them what happened in these caves.  They told us
that people that went in there, never came out, that while in
there, the entrances and tunnels would change, which happened to
us, and we didn't know about this till after we had been in
there.  Then they told us the strangest thing, which at the time
we said these people are superstitious, they said that they went
with an expedition with 20 or 30 men hired by an American man to
look into this cave.  This happened about 10 or 15 years ago they
said.  Four or five of the men had revolvers, they were well
equipped with lights and tools.  While they were working there
all of a sudden in the far end there appeared a half man and bull
head like a bull upright.  This description fits the one you have
on your front cover on issue A-1.  And next to him was a naked
midget or little boy.  They pulled out their revolvers but they
wouldn't fire, and their lights went out.  There was confusion,
and several men were killed in the scramble and nobody returned
after that - Frank J. Mezta, 939 Genge, Calexico, Calif."

     In recent years, much has been written about the so-called
"National Defense" underground facilities, some of which have
become public knowledge due to the apparent "fall" of Communism
in the former Soviet Union.  It is alleged that these facilities
do serve or have served as National Defense shelters, yet
according to some they "flow in" via tube-shuttles to other
subterranean systems which are involved in the secret government
"Alternative 002" scenario, underground bio-genetic laboratories,
and even subterranean systems involving "alien" scenarios as
well.  Mt. Weather, near Bluemont, VA., is the site of an actual
"underground city" constructed and maintained by the U.S.
Government for the purpose of being utilized "by the President"
and top governmental officials as a command center in the event
of a nuclear war or a similar emergency.  It is uncertain whether
this installation was entirely excavated by the U.S. government
or whether they utilized and added-on to already-existing natural
subterranean cavities, but most reports state that the
"installation" is enormous.  It was virtually unknown to the
media until a plane crashed near Mt. Weather in northern
Virginia, forcing the government to acknowledge the existence of
the underground complex.  It allegedly consists of miles upon
miles of underground tunnels which connect scores of chambers,
offices, recreation centers, cafeterias, etc., all reportedly
accessible via a system of 'electric cars'.  It is apparently one
of the major 'bolt holes' (a code-name for a series of about a
hundred, possibly more, such government installations located in
America and overseas) which is being utilized by the U.S.
government.  Witnesses have stated that helicopters have at times
been seen landing in a secret port in the side of Mt. Weather.
These craft then enter the mountain via enormous metal 'doors' in
the side of the mountain.  In reference to Mt. Weather, the
editor of 'THE MISSING LINK', published by UFOCC (UFO Contact
Center International) of Federal Way, Washington, stated:

     "A...paper on caves, tunnels, etc. states that there is a
tube shuttle from the White House to a super-secret underground
complex in case of nuclear attack, under Mt. Weather, Virginia!"

     Incidentally, a man in Florida (who will remain anonymous
for obvious reasons) who claimed to have been "abducted" by alien
entities, also alleged that he had a friend who was a high-level
officer in the government, with a very high security clearance.
He stated that his friend was involved in interviewing military
personnel who had "UFO-type" encounters, and other forms of
debriefing and, we can assume, other methods utilized to maintain
the cover-up.  This government officer had allegedly been to
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton, Ohio and had
personally seen some of the "alien cadavers" which were recovered
from disks which had crashed.  He was also, he claimed, allowed
entrance into a top-secret system of underground tunnels beneath
Washington D.C., and had visited a highly classified underground
installation which apparently was the 'real' or 'inner' Central
Intelligence Agency, and that the one at Langley was merely the
'outer' level of the CIA.  This 'installation', he said, was
connected to the White House via a TUBE SHUTTLE!  Could this
Florida man's friend have been referring to Mt. Weather, or a
similar installation?  Or was he referring to the alleged
CIA-NSA-MIB installation deep below Washington D.C. itself, the
so-called 'NOD' installation?

     In addition to this, there are other sources who claim that
the CIA installation at Langley descends at least seven levels,
and that some of the (recovered?) disks are housed in these lower
levels.

     A researcher by the name of Jon Singer, stated the following
in an article of his which appeared in 'THE MISSING LINK'
(mentioned earlier): "Our nation's capital has it's share of
Fortean mysteries.  There is supposed to be a tunnel complex
under the Octagon House at 1741 New York Avenue, NW.  Dr. John
Thornton, the architect who designed the Capitol Building, built
some (but not all) of the tunnels.  The course of at least two of
the tunnels is known.  One is supposed to go to the White House
and the other supposedly leads to the Potomac.  The tunnels are
supposedly blocked up.  Jim Brandon, on p. 58 of (his book)
'WEIRD AMERICA' (1978.  E.P. Dutton & Co., N.Y.), added that the
tunnels built by Dr. Thornton were only part of a much older and
larger tunnel network constructed by colonists from Atlantis.
Unfortunately his sources were two unidentified psychics, so this
must be a fascinating rumor."  This would depend upon whether
these "revelations" were received by these psychics via
"occult" means, in which case they should be viewed with great
suspicion, or whether they based their claims on actual physical
accounts.  However, Richard Toronto, editor of SHAVERTRON,
claimed that some years ago as a result of a printed request for
information on subterranean anomalies, a scientist contacted him
offering a 10-page report on a system of tunnels he had
personally investigated beneath Washington D.C.  He stated that
the tunnels were built by a very ancient race, and that the walls
consisted of a diamond-hard, glassy or glaze-like substance.  As
far as we know, Mr. Toronto never did actually get his hands on
the report.
