Dulce Base Conference Ends With More Questions Than Answers

DULCE, NEW MEXICO  --  Close to 120 people showed up for the first
"underground base" conference ever to be held in Dulce, New Mexico on
Sunday, March 29.
The event made a rather tumultuous start at the Best Western Jicarilla
Inn at 10 a.m.
By that time the entire bar lounge area began to be filled beyond
capacity.

And by the time the first speaker (former Dulce ranch owner, Edmund
Gomez) began his  presentation, many people had to stand and wait in
the adjacent restaurant area.
It was then that the Fire Department issued a warning saying that the
conference must immediately be moved elsewhere.

Halfway through the speaker's fascinating presentation, the Fire
Department issued a stern second warning saying that the number of
people inside the conference room far exceeded its capacity.
Panic then began to be felt by the event's organizer, Norio Hayakawa
of Rio Rancho.
Hotel employees frantically made phone calls to find out if there were
any other locations available for the conference to go on.

It was then that Hoyt Velarde, former Dulce police officer and head of
Public Safety Department, suggested to Hayakawa that the conference be
moved to a civic hall inside a small shopping center across the street
from the hotel.
With Velarde's swift assistance in making the arrangement, and after a
short intermission, the entire Dulce Base:  Fact or Fiction?
conference and public forum finally resumed and continued the rest of
the day at the new location.

As an interesting side note, on Sunday morning when it was still dark
outside, many guests at the Best Western Jicarilla Inn were awakened
shortly before 6 a.m. by a thunderous roar of blades of helicopters
above.   Local residents nearby reported that there was a rare low
flight of two military helicopters above Dulce.
In the afternoon session of the conference, two local residents also
testified that they witnessed the military helicopters circling above
Dulce and that they passed slowly above the hotel.  They told Hayakawa
that there are occasional appearances of military helicopters over the
town but the flights were never as low as what they saw early Sunday
morning.

As organizer and moderator of this conference, Hayakawa several times
alluded to an allegation that the government, beginning in the early
1970s and lasting till the early 1980s, may have conducted clandestine
operations in the area involving experiments with bovine diseases,
anthrax and other substances as part of biological warfare
research..

He also alluded to another allegation that there may also have been
some illegal dumping or storage of toxic chemicals and other bio-
hazardous materials in the nearby areas.

Hayakawa stated that he tends to support a theory that the government
may have purposefully created some 'convenient' cover stories
(underground alien base concept) to conceal those clandestine
activities and may even have staged a series of fake 'UFO-type'
incidents in the area, utilizing high tech equipment such as
holographic projection devices.

However he also stated that he cannot deny any possibility that there
may indeed be some unknown interdimensional phenomenon in the area
which happens to be filled with fascinating cultural and spiritual
beliefs of the Jicarilla Apache nation.   He added that for this
reason, perhaps, the government may have targeted this region as a
convenient location for clandestine operations.

The speakers at the conference and their main points expressed were as
follows:

Edmund Gomez,  spokesman for the entire Gomez family who owned a large
ranch in Dulce said that their ranch lost more than 17 cows during the
height of cattle mutilations incidents and experienced substantial
financial loss over the years.  Gomez stated that gas masks were found
near the mutilation sites and that specific cows were each tracked
with phosphorescent markings a few days before the mutilations
actually took place.  He is convinced that this was done by the
government and that no aliens were involved.  He asserted that the
government was conducting some type of germ warfare experiments.  He
concluded by stating that there is definitely a governmental
underground facility there.

Hoyt Velarde, former Dulce police officer and head of Public Safety
Department asserted that he has not located the base yet but it is an
undeniable fact that there have been (and still are) many UFO
sightings in the area.   Velarde even suggested that he is willing to
organize an escorted group expedition soon for the public to the top
of the Archuleta Mesa if such a request is made in earnest.   He
surprised the attendees also by saying that another conference on this
topic could even be held next time in the conference hall of the
Police Department there.  Hayakawa said that he may consider this
offer.

Gabe Valdez, former New Mexico state patrol officer in charge of the
Dulce area stated that he investigated numerous cattle mutilation
cases in the Dulce area from the mid 1970s to the early 1980s.  He
declared that this has nothing to do with aliens but that there is
something there that is too sensitive for discussion and refused to
further divulge what that was.

Christopher O' Brien, researcher of paranormal activities in the San
Luis Valley of Southern Colorado asserted that Dulce may be a
diversion for what is more importantly taking place in the San Luis
Valley just north of northern New Mexico.

Dr.. Michael E. Salla, initiator of "exopolitics" and author of a book
entitled EXPOSING U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICIES ON EXTRATERRESTRIAL LIFE
expressed his belief that there is a joint US/alien underground bio-
lab beneath the Archuleta Mesa and that this must be addressed as a
serious human rights abuse issue.

Greg Bishop, author of PROJECT BETA, a book in which he describes in
detail his investigations of the claims of an Albuquerque scientist by
the name of Paul Bennewitz, said that Bennewitz was the initial source
behind the rumors of the underground base in Dulce.  Bishop asserted
that Bennewitz was side tracked by an unofficial disinformation
campaign to get him to look away from evidence of sensitive military
projects going on in 1979 inside Kirtland Air Force Base in
Albuquerque.  However, Bishop surprised everyone when he said at the
end that he is now beginning to doubt his initial doubt about Dulce
and concluded that there could indeed be something there.

Gabe Julian, former Dulce police officer who worked under the late
Raleigh Tafoya, former Dulce Police Chief described his encounters
with three metallic, oval-shaped object hovering at a tree-top level
at a ranch in Dulce.  He described how he was dispatched to the ranch
house of a woman who claimed that small people with strange boxes
emitting light were harassing her.  Initially skeptical of what his
radio dispatcher told him, he drove over to the area and was shaken up
when he witnessed those hovering objects there.

Dennis Balthaser, a well-known UFO researcher from Roswell, New Mexico
expressed his conviction that there is a US/alien joint biological
laboratory and base under the Archuleta Mesa.

Keith Ealy, a researcher with a fascinating interpretation of Dulce as
being a space time portal for interdimensionals amazed the audience
with his close-up satellite imagery of Dulce Elementary School
building. He told the audience that the contours of the parking lot
resemble an ancient stone scupture in Bolivia.  He concluded that the
Dulce area is filled with interdimensional phenomenon,  a topic
similarly shared by world famous researchers, Dr. Jacques Vallee and
John Keel.

Also, the Albuquerque Journal had a front page story today (March 30)
about the conference.  The headline which appeared at the bottom of
the front page was "UFO Hunters Debate Underground Base".   And on
page 3 the headline for the continuing story was: "Secret Alien Base
