Speaking of underground bases and cavern worlds, here are a few interesting comments from Mr. Cater's book:
According to the subject matter of the manuscript, the stranger was taken into the hollow of the earth through a cave in Kentucky during the early part of the nineteenth century. His guide was a cavern dweller who was a member of a secret organization whose objective was the preservation of vital knowledge for the future enlightenment of mankind. The objective of this trip was the inner shell of the earth, where the nameless one was to receive advanced schooling in the mysteries of the universe. The book Etidorhpa described this amazing trip through the caverns of the inner earth in detail. It also presented some of the philosophy and scientific truths the guide imparted to this man.
The author was astounded when he read the book, since it confirmed many of the new ideas he had already formulated. In fact, some of the factual material presented in the book enabled him to extend the new . r, concepts to a more comprehensive view of the universe. It was then possible to explain many things not properly resolved in the book.
According to Etidorhpa, the shell of the hollow earth is 800 mules thick, which an analysis of the satellite pictures confirms. Gravity at the 25 mile depth was one third normal earth gravity. From that level, gravity decreased gradually until it disappeared at the 700 mile depth. At that point, the narrative ended. The reasons for these conditions were not given, but they are to be expected from the principles already outlined.
The protagonist was also taken on a boat ride for several thousand miles on a lake 150 miles below the surface. Evidently, this boat utilized gravity inducing radiations for its motive power, since the occupants experience no accelerating stresses, even though the boat accelerated from a standing start to 1200 miles per hour in a flash. They felt no rush of air,, since the air surrounding the boat was carried along with them. The nature of this propulsive force was not divulged, although the guide said that some day the outer world would utilize this principle. Another significant scientific truth revealed was that magnetic fields are the result of ether currents. This concept forms one of the principles to be introduced in Part III.
An outline of this nature cannot do justice to a book such as Etidorhpa. Limited space does not permit a more extensive summary. It is not. surprising that Etidorhpa presented academic science in an unfavorable light. In this vein, a quotation from page 355 of Etidorhpa is congruous, with the trend of this treatise:
Science has confined its labors to superficial descriptions, not the elucidation of the fundamental causes of phenomena.
This was actually a very charitable statement in view of what has been presented so far.
Seismologists believe their findings verify the conventional belief that the earth is a solid ball consisting of an iron core 4000 miles in diameters tapped by an inner mantle of molten material and an outer mantle that is more solid. Over all of this is a relatively thin crust. They allegedly do this by tracking speeds of earthquake waves by a network of seismome j ters scattered around the globe which furnish a record of digital data] which is fed into computers. When a quake occurs seismic waves spread through the planet from the center of the rupture. There are several; points where travel times of seismic waves change considerably. Such; zones are called discontinuities, and supposedly occur at the so called; crust mantle boundary or "Moho" and at depths of 400 to 670 kilometers.
As is the case with other members of the scientific community, the seismologists lack the mentality to properly analyze their data and to realize that more than one interpretation can be placed on them. They display the peculiar mental process that is common in the world of academic science. It is known as reasoning in a circle. They start out with an assumption which they consider an incontrovertible fact which is treated as such in their subsequent analysis. By following this trend of thought they arrive at a final conclusion which is the same assumption with which they started!
One important factor seismologists fail to realize is that they have no

reliable means of determining the exact path a given wave has followed when it reaches a certain point. The great network of caverns and huge underground bodies of water throughout the shell of the hollow earth would conform perfectly with the seismic data. Great masses of water could be interpreted as molten rock. Discontinuities would be nothing else but boundary lines between solid portions of the shell and bodies of water along with caverns and also the inner parts of the shell. It is extremely significant that different groups in different places on the globe come up with different conclusions as to structural detail in regard to the inner earth. On the basis of conventional beliefs concerning the structure of the earth, this would be extremely difficult if not impossible to explain away by any rational approach. However, such results are to be expected from the information revealed thus far in this treatise. The caverns which make up the network in the earth's shell vary considerably in their extent and distance below the earth's surface. This would obviously create complex and variable seismic data over different parts of the globe.
Seismic data which directly refute the claims of a solid earth have been conveniently ignored by seismologists. Earthquakes of inordinate magnitude, such as the Alaska earthquake of 1962, have caused the earth to ring like a bell for several hours following the quake. This could not have occurred if the earth were the solid ball that our obtuse scientists keep saying that it is. It is significant that seismic experiments on the Moon caused it to behave in a similar manner. Being of far less mass than the earth, relatively small shocks would produce such an effect. Also the reverberation time would be less. However, the moon did ring for nearly an hour following the experiments. This caused some scientists to speculate on the possibility of the Moon being a hollow space ship.
