Y ioe by the Papers... QUOTE OF THE MONTH A crazy hypothesis is better than none at all. Maurice Burton, D.Sc. THE RETURN OF “BIGFOOT” | Piers HATFIELD, a logger of Crescent City, Calif., was visiting friends, Mr. and Mrs. Bud Jenkins on State Route 20, four miles from Fort Bragg, Calif., one day in February, when he heard a dog howling in terror outside the Jenkins home. Hatfield went out to discover the cause of the ruckus and he saw “the thing.” “Tt was standing chest and shoul- ders above a six-foot-high fence on the back of the property, looking right at me.” Hatfield ran into the house and told Jenkins that “there is the big- gest bear outside that I’ve ever seen.” They all went out to look but didn’t see anything at first. Then Hatfield walked around one side of the house and bumped squarely in- to the creature. It knocked him down and Hatfield called out to the Jenkinses to run into the house, that it was “half man and half beast.” They all raced for the front door and got there one step ahead of whatever was chasing them. But, according to their story, the animal wouldn’t let them get the door closed. After several tries to close the door Jenkins got a gun and called to the others, ee back, I’m going to shoot him.” At these words the door closed and the creature ran off. CoO WHAT A FOOT!

8 been reported periodically from that state for many years. most recent, previous reports were from Humboldt County in 1958 and 1959, ‘Skeptics, of whom there are many, have not hesitated to remark that the present account is the first to make it clear that Bigfoot can understand English, as seems evi- - dent from his leaving the door upon . hearing he was to be shot. However, Mr. Hatfield and the Jenkinses say. they feel the crea- ture’s leaving may have been just a coincidence. They also offered as evidence a muddy handprint on the side of the white house. This print measured 11 inches across and a footprint in the mud measured 16 inches long despite the fact that one toe was missing. Although many residents prompt- ly armed themselves against the dangers of this marauding giant, students of the problem said all in- formation suggests that Bigfoot is probably a vegetarian and harmless. Dr. Maurice Tripp, of 15321 Quito Road, Los Gatos, Calif., has headed two expeditions (in 1958 and 1959) into Humboldt County (the area of this story is in Men- docino County) to investigate the reports. He says there is absolutely no evidence that the “California Bigfoot” ever has harmed anyone. In the face of these assurances, only two families from outlying te The two FATE areas moved into Fort Bragg temp- orarily. GO POSTSCRIPT ON BIGFOOT HZ ARL McCONNELL, a long- time reader of FaTE who sup- plied us with some of our informa- tion on the latest sighting of Big- foot, wrote us a letter stating that his nephew had seen a similiar crea- ture on a hunting expedition in the area in 1953. The hunters had a deer hanging more than eight feet in the air and they surprised the creature tearing flesh from the deer. They approach- ed within 20 feet before it saw them and raced away: The hunters shot over the creature’s head, whereupon it stopped, picked up a log and hurled it at them, then fled. They estimated it to be eight feet tall and stated that its left foot print was “a foot and a half long.” CO MONSTER SEASON, ALL RIGHT ONSTER SEASONS are un- predictable. It used to be thought that they were associated with spring fever, but since mon- sters now are known to be seen at all seasons of the year some far-out persons feel that maybe —just may- be some of the reports are legit- imate. In February, for example, Mos- cow radio reported that a party of

I SEE BY THE PAPERS - geologists spotted a monster in Laba Kul, a lake on a remote plateau in eastern Siberia. Laba Kul is on a 3,500-foot-high plateau, and when the prospectors were about 1,000 feet from its shores they saw an object which they first mistook to be an iron drum gleaming in the lake. Sud- denly foam started hissing around it and the geologists climbed a near- by cliff so they could see better. As the creature swam nearer they could see a head six feet long, its eyes set wide apart, and a body they estimated to be 30 feet long. Along its shiny gray back was a something that looked like a fin. The animal appeared to swim in sudden swift rushes. Near the shore it halted, made a lather or foam, dived and vanished. The nearest community is some 80 miles away and the residents have a legend that a monster in- habits the lake, according to Mos- cow radio. They complain that the monster has eaten their dogs. A fisherman adds that he once was chased by a gray monster, oe 2) SEA SERPENT LAN MACLEAN of Campbell River, British Columbia, cer- tainly would believe this Soviet re- port because he claims he watched a sea serpent at play for about 15 minutes recently.

Box 671, Evansion, III, FATE Maclean says his wife saw it first from their seaside home at Campbell River and called his at- tention to it as soon as he arrived home. This monster was described as being perhaps 18 feet long with a bulb-like hump sticking out of its back about four feet behind the snake-like head. It was yellowy- cream in color, with red vein-like markings. The body ended in a darker ball at the tail. The serpent swam leisurely about in a kelp bed for 15 minutes. Then two fishermen in a boat took a shot at it and it disappeared. Maclean freely admitted that the fishermen thought it was a sea lion. But he says: “They couldn’t see it very well because they were at water level. We were 40 feet above it on the shore and we could see it very clearly.” CO LIFE DOWN THERE eae NEWLY developed science of undersea photography is re- vealing a whole new and mysterious realm of life in the depths of the oceans, Dr. A. S. Laughton of the British National Institute of Oceanography, recently stated that nearly every photograph taken in the deep ocean shows evidence of some kind of life. It is still difficult to know what it is, however, because many dredged

Some of the tracks are made by animals on the surface and others by creatures beneath the surface. One of the great difficulties is assessing the age of the tracks be- cause there are no currents to dis- turb them and sediment accumu- lates so slowly that some tracks may be thousands of years old. CO “TALK TO THEM” O YOU HAVE mice — or rats? You can rid your house of such pests by talking to them, ac- cording to no less a personage than Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding, who mastered-minded Britain’s heroic fighting force in the Battle of Britain. “My wife’s mother,” Lord Dowd- ing told the House of Lords, “had a plague of rats in a fowl run (poul- try pen). She practiced this cure and the fowl runs were cleared. “We ourselves have cleared our house of rats and mice by similar methods.” Then up spoke Earl Bathhurst, Under Secretary at the Home Office, to take exception to Lord Dowd- ing’s method. While some persons do have extraordinary powers over animals, the Earl declared, if we all use Lord Dowding’s methods “we TI om BOOKPLATE specicily printed with your own name and with the sign under which you were born.

104 shall merely push our rats and other vermin upon some other individual who does not have these powers.” Lord Dowding admitted, alas, that this was all too true. io 2) 77 BILLION PEOPLE Ae anthropologists are not wholly in agreement on exactly when man first appeared on earth, two professors recently under- _ took the heroic though highly specu- lative task of estimating how many persons have lived since the dawn of mankind. Their estimate; 77 billion. Their figures recently were published in the Population Bulletin of the Pop- ulation Reference Bureau. The two men are Fletcher Wellemeyer, a manpower consultant, and Dr. Frank Lorimer of American Uni- versity. The demographers assumed that human life began in the year 600,000 B.C. In the succeeding 592,000 years — up to 6,000 B.C. — only about 12 billion people were born although this period covers 99 per cent of the estimated span of human existence. The population of Earth at the beginning of the Christian era is estimated at 200 million to 300 mil- lion. It reached 500 million in 1650, one billion by 1850; doubled to two billion by 1930, and is three billion today. So fast is this population FATE growth accelerating that by the year 2,000, the world’s pépulation will be six billion. Some time in the cen- tury or so after that there will be standing room only. CO MOST PRIMITIVE MAN? = HE MARCH issue of Readers Digest has an article by Eu- gene Burdick, condensed from “The Blue of Capricorn” entitled “Most Primitive Man on Earth,” the Au- stralian aborigine. Without detracting from the fas- cination of this article, we think the title is a misnomer. We don’t know what manner of man is the most primitive on earth but we believe there are several candidates more apt than the Australian aborigines. One is the Onge pygmies of Lit- tle Andaman Island. The Anda- mans lie in the Bay of Bengal, 780 miles from Calcutta. ‘They were once a British possession but now belong to India. In their hinter- land, almost unknown, are the pyg- my Negritos. ; They are a stone age people, liv- ing by hunting: and fishing, who recently have been studied by the Department of Anthropology of the Government of India, and by Prof. Lidio Cipriani of the University of Florence, Italy. Professor Cipriani followed a group of them for about a year, learning much about their lives.

The Onges use bows and arrows, and do not know the use of the fish hook. The tallest Onges rarely exceed four feet in height, and they seldom live beyond 50 years. They do not know how to make fire, but must keep one burning at all times, even when they travel. There are no villages and there is no major chief. -Each group is made up of a few families under a petty chief. During the rainy sea- son each tribe gathers in a great communal hut under whose floor they bury their dead. Seven days after burial they break off the jaw bone of the deceased, paint it with red ochre and decorate it, using it thereafter as an ornament on a necklace. After about three months they dig up all the bones, wash . them and paint them with ochre, then bury them again. The Onges wear little clothing — usually none at all, but they do decorate themselves elaborately with paint. There are perhaps only 500 of them left, surviving by food gather- ing, using only bows and arrows and flint and obsidian chips. A strange, tiny, fey people, the Onges ap- parently are doomed to extinction in our modern world.

GO THE QUAKE EVERYONE EXPECTS NLIKE THE disasters that didn’t occur as astrologers had predicted last February, there is a different kind of disaster in the offing that seems as sure as that two and two make four. It is being predicted with cer- tainty by well-known scientists, but unlike the Indian astrologers they cannot say precisely when the thing will happen. But that it will happen and soon, is the statistical conclusion of such a man as C. F. Richter, professor of seismology at California Institute of Technology. In fact, Professor Richter is as- tonished that Southern California hasn’t had a really great earthquake recently and as each day passes without one, he grows more aston- ished. California has 85 per cent of the earthquakes of North America. Dr. Richter has compared seismic ac- tivity there with other portions of the world. He has discovered that in parts of the world where about 500 quakes occur annually a great quake may be expected once in 40 years. A similar ‘ratio seems to ap- ply everywhere. Thus, where there are 50 small quakes per year, a ‘ 15 BUTTE Tee aed Search MAGAZINE In this great free America we have an advantage over half the world, in that we can do our own thinking and our own talking. We can exchange ideas, we can challenge old ones, we can devise new ones without fear of being clapped in a dun- geon or ostracized as a heretic. Here knowledge and research is the recognized realm of activity of every person. That is why we have published the magazine called SEARCH, which we first introduced in November, 1953. The articles in SEARCH are thought-proyoking, challenging, typified by an upward-looking spirit of inquiry, ranging from the lowliest investigator, the child who asks “Mommy, where did | come from?”, to Dr. Rhine of Duke University, who is engaged in a scientific search for the soul! SEARCH asks many such ques- tions, and as the answers are forthcoming, brings them to its readers honestly, competently and accurately.

SYCHIATRIST Ian Kent of Montreal, after 30 years of ob- servation has prepared the Kent Tris Pigment Scale that will tell, by the color of a patient’s eyes, what kind of a character he has inherited. Psychiatrist Kent believes that his eye color charts definitely tell a patient’s basic character. For in- stance: Blue-eyed people are logical, obey laws, hesitate to admit defeat, tend to indulge in self-pity, blame weak- nesses on others and under emotion- al stress tend to be suspicious of others. Brown-eyed people are the oppo- site. They cry easily, feel sadness and tragedy readily, and are moti- vated by strong instinctive drives ——— FATE va

A WORLD-MESSAGE TO ALL ROSICRUCIANS* FROM ADEPTS IN THE TABLELANDS OF PERU! Do you know what genuine Rosicrucianism* means? Are you practicing its vital principles? Are you utilizing the latent energy of cells and nerves? Do you work with solar energy as a prerequisite to ‘spiritual unfoldment? In all probability you do not! Not even the highest adepts of popular Rosicrucian* orders know these secrets! Why not? Because the prolongation of life serves no useful purpose by those unprepared for it! An increased intellect is dangerous if not controlled! Spiritual forces unleashed within the human organism have the potential for good and evil and if misused result in more harm than good! For this reason the true life elixir has remained a secret (even to other Rosicrucian* groups). Rose/Cross agents, teachers and adepts have preserved this secret tradition for future use. Now, due to dawning of a new era for man, ie., Feb. 4, 1962, a new world order is to be established (and man taught how to survive cos- mic/solar bombardment—as well as atomic fallout). The order now inyites the sincere student to membership. You will be taught to metamorphose your psycho/biological ‘attributes to awaken spiritual faculties. You will be instructed by personal, weekly letters sent via rapid, safe Air Registered mail direct from Peruvian Andes (the abode of the Authentic Rose/Cross Brotherhood). This is a new kind of dynamic training program. Our methods are modern, geared to social standards, proven and far above that taught up to this time. Following our preparatory course you will share in all the personal benefits extended the individual member engaged in alleviating human suffering. 7 Mail to: The Secretary MAYKU SOCIETY** Casilla 443, Trujillo, Peru, S.A.

Well, this is not exactly a pre- monition, but it is akin to it. Ernie Palmquist, author of the. song The Music Goes Round and Round, has a miniature circus that he displays at expositions around the country. Highlight of this minature circus was the highwire act of the Wal- lendas.

Then a huge piece of fire- fighting apparatus roared past and helped control the fire which sped around his property without even scorching a fruit tree. The man who commanded the equipment said he was glad to help. His name, he explained, was Lieu- tenant Pelley. The next day Ward went to the fire house to express his appreciation further. They had no Lieutenant Pelley and knew no one by that name. But that same night, in far away Long Island, the home of their friends the Robinsons all but burned to the ground.

The Grose home overlooks the Falls River mill pond and on the last day of January they saw that one of the swans that visit the pond ‘had been frozen into the ice. The bird was unable to get out of the ice and it even looked to the Groses as if an icicle hung from its bill. But before the Groses had time to figure out how to save the crea- ture, a flock of 50 to 60 mallards and black ducks that had been shel- tering in the woods, came out onto the ice in a body. First they clustered on one side of the beleaguered swan and began bouncing up and down on the ice until it broke through. Then they waddled around to the other side of the swan and broke the ice there. Then they freed the swan front and back. Within a minute the grace- ful bird was swimming in a patch of gpen water 25 by 30 feet. At this point it showed its grat- itude in true swan fashion by driy- ing off its rescuers.

I SEE BY THE PAPERS Recently near Ottawa, Ont., wit- nesses reported they had seen the sun “dance.” There were the usual denials, and then local newspapers were flooded with letters from per- sons who said they had witnessed the same phenomenon. Herbert M. Katlein: “Apparent- ly there exists in the Ottawa area, at this particular time of the year, an atmospheric condition such as to cause a unique pattern of refrac- tion of the sun’s rays .. . this “sun dance” could probably be compared to the “blinking” of the stars.” Mrs. M. J. Lacombe: “Yes, my family has seen the sun dance on Easter Sunday and they see it yet in the country. The sun does seem to be larger than other mornings and it does ‘swiftly leap in all di- rections for a few minutes’, but it must be seen coming over the hori- zon and that cannot be seen in the city.” Elsa J. Sater: “I, too, was laugh- ed at when I told about the sun dance. I was born in Finland of Swedish parents and it was an Easter ritual to see the sun dance, because Christ has risen . . . The sun dance was known in northern Finland and now from Ottawa.” Claire Bessen: “My family also witnessed the sun dance, two years in a row. We live in Montreal.

FATE Exploring the ea with L S$ D Lives are being transformed by a substance which produces soul-shaking visions and mystical experiences. 3 bee eee HISTORY per- sons have had enchanting spon- taneous mystical experiences. These experiences usually have been mo- mentary flashes of visions accom- panied by spiritual insights and soul-shaking emotions which, in these few seconds, have permanent- ly transformed .their lives. I have had 11 such transfiguring experiences induced by a vision- producing substance called lysergic acid diethylamide, or LSD-25. Under LSD-25 the mystical insights, feel- ings and visions, instead of lasting but a few seconds, may continue without interruption for eight to 10 hours.- LSD-25 is a derivative of ergot which grows on rye. The visions and spiritual insights it brings are similar to those’ induced by the “magic” mushroom of Mexico and By dane Dunlap the peyote cactus of our Southwest, both of which have been used in religious ceremonies for hundreds of years. No two responses to LSD-25 are alike. But of almost a quarter of a million individuals who now have been given this remarkable ma- terial, many many thousands have had life-changing mystical experi- ences.. What manner of transformations can these visions produce? Recently we had as our guest a physician who has spent the past decade doing research with LSD. He said that among the thousands of persons to whom he has given LSD-25, he has seen dozens of “hopeless” alcoholics permanently give up liquor; prostitutes turned from their age-old profession; ju- venile delinquents stop stealing; !
Page 26
26 leaders become even greater lead- ers; ministers gain a deeper insight into religion— after only one ad- ministration. 2 In the light of this doctor’s great knowledge I feel that my own 11 LSD experiences give me little right to offer conclusions. Nevertheless, I remarked somewhat timidly, “It seems to me that what the vision- producing substances. really do is to reveal the soul.” The doctor’s warm gray eyes looked directly into mine, surprise showing on his kind face. “Of course! That’s exactly what they do.” If this conclusion is correct, such experiences, often considered mere flights of fantasy, are of inestimable importance. Only a psychiatrist may admin- ister LSD, either by mouth or in- jection, and he must be in constant attendance throughout the experi- ence. Usually a trained monitor sits beside the subject, chiefly to give a feeling of “psychological safety.” The subject himself customarily lies with eyes closed, although if he wishes he may talk, eat, or walk ‘about even when deep under the influence of the substance. . Since all emotions are heightened, it is more pleasant when surroundings are attractive and classical music is played. Lighted candles and re- ligious paintings, sculpture, and music have been found to help in- FATE duce mystical experience. The thousands of visions which come before one’s eyes may be nightmarish in their horror or be- jeweled, radiant with brilliant colors, and breath-takingly exquisite. But the experiences are far more than visual ones. They are experiences in awareness, of wisdom making it- self known, of understanding the un-understandable, and of lasting, unshakable convictions. They are experiences in feeling to the very depths of one’s soul, perhaps over- whelming love or oneness with all humanity. It appears that LSD makes it possible for the depth of the brain — perhaps the soul — to become the teacher of the conscious mind and that much teaching is done by means of visions. For me, the experiences have an- swered age-old questions: What is God? What is the soul? Does life continue after death? Is reincarna- tion a reality? What is the purpose of life here on earth? The answers which have come to me may not satisfy anyone else but they have brought me peace and serenity. My 11 experiences, spaced over two and one-half years, all have been religious in nature and each has been a continuation of the pre- vious experience. The first five, de- scribed in detail in my book, Ex- ploring Inner Space, convinced me that God is not only love, as the Bible states, but also compassion, >
Page 27
1 : ” EXPLORING THE SOUL WITH LSD 27 wisdom, creativity, kindness, toler- ance, joy, beauty, forgiveness, and all positive qualities and emotions; that the soul, being part of God, contains these same qualities and emotions, giving each of us an in- finite capacity for all-encompassing love, wisdom, creativity, and hap- piness; that eternity and reincarna- tion are indeed realities; and that to achieve spiritual development one must be able to lay aside the powerful ego, the slave-driver of this life. Continuing on, the theme of the sixth experience was that God had given each of us free will. At first I felt myself to be a variety of shell-covered sea life being washed by waves onto great sun-drenched beaches or against rocky shores or overhanging cliffs. Before my eyes came one beautiful beach after an- other, several in Florida, others in the South Seas, some along the African coast; then came the rocky Maine coast, the Cliffs of Dover, and every conceivable type of shore throughout the world. Whether scallop, mussel, or conch, I could see striking beauty or darkness, mud, and ugliness. The choice was mine. Soon I was traveling the world as a barnacle. Again I had the choice of looking at lovely lights reflected through moving waters or at the bottom of rusty ships, rotting piers, or dark stone. In sequence I be- came each of many~animals in. an Ethiopian forest. As a silent-footed lion picking my way through a tun- nel of foliage, as a curled-lip hyena laughing raucously in a treetop, or as any other animal, by my own free will I could choose the positive or the negative. As thousands of vivid pictures passed before my eyes I seemed to become primitive man and woman , in Egypt, and passed on through many stages to present-day man. Every type of life had free will and could choose to see beauty or ugli- ness. Like the animals, man could look up or down, backward or for- ward, and outside himself. He also could look within, and this ability, if he chose to use it, Sat Ae him from the annals: For an hour or more I gazed into a vast fiery volcanic crater which symbolized the depths of ourselves. Through puffs of red and orange steam I could see intertwined hu- manity caught in the molten lava, a scene depicting our positive forces struggling for freedom. Then I watched great alligator-like beasts —perhaps our buried angers and other negative emotions — lunging in the viscous inferno. Later, dark- ness fell and the crater filled with rich blue vapors. In them Christ appeared, His face showing infinite kindness, love, and compassion, and His robe, made of white mists, glistening with diamonds. As He
Page 28
mat 28 spoke, His voice contained all understanding and patience. “When you leok within yourself and others you can see ugliness or beauty. If you choose to see Him, you can find Christ in every person.” Soon. my mind turned to the many mistakes we make by exercis- ing free will. Immediately our errors. were symbolized by colorful forests where leaves fell gently to make way for new growth, showing that we learn by our mistakes. Next came a charming, curly-headed toddler learning to walk; she fell and immediately got up, not blam- ing her toe for causing the fall. A hurdler stumbled, quickly recovered and sprinted on, his forgiveness of the guilty foot instantaneous. Thus should all mistakes, by which we grow, be forgiven and forgotten. In the next LSD experience, more than six months later, the same theme continued. This time I flew on invisible wings among millions of planets in a radiant, color-filled cosmos which symbolized God’s magnificance. Later I saw human- ity as thousands of gnats, each in a miniature row boat, rowing up- stream on the “river of life.” We rowed against a strong current, hurrying, exhausting ourselves, of- ten totally unmindful of God. In- deed, we frequently tried to play God, misusing our free will and making decisions without His guid- ance. In contrast I became a va- FATE riety of plants and animals—a waxy water lily, a'bee, a butterfly, and others — and as each I felt a tremendous love for life, an at- peaceness, and a glorious feeling of living completely in the now, all of which became personal awareness of God. Before the day was over, I could see God in every animate and inanimate object, every act of hu- man kindness and decency. No longer was He vague or difficult to understand. God was all life, all beauty, all positive qualities. The commandment, “Love the Lord, thy God, with all thy heart .. .” was merely telling us to love life and all its creatures. During a later experience God was shown as a gentle yet powerful force somewhat similar to magnet- ism which penetrates all things and exists everywhere in the universe. « Just as we see electricity manifested in a lighted bulb, so can we see God manifested hourly in each act of love, forgiveness, and mercy, and in every form of beauty. The soul, being part of God, we see manifested in the courtesy of the taxi driver, the cheerful greeting of a waitress, the tenderness of a mother, and each act of gracious- ness and thoughtfulness. Of all the visions, the most moy- ing and unforgettable are those of Christ. Invariably His face shows infinite gentleness, compassion, and love. On one occasion I watched

RMR So Boat ISAS aes EXPLORING THE SOUL WITH LSD Bat -*29 Him carry the heavy cross to Cal- vary. Because the cross has shown us immortality, it was depicted as the purest amythest which blended into topaz at the base. Then came the insight that each of our crosses is made of jewels, and only by them can we learn and grow in under- standing. Another time, when I felt myself tortuously dying of thirst on a sun- scorched desert, Christ appeared and held to my lips a gourd continuous- ly overflowing with crystal clear water. As He spoke the words, “He who drinks from my cup shall never thirst,” I realized He referred to spiritual thirsts which only an awareness of God can quench. Dur- ing a later experience I seemed to sit at the table with the disciples during the Last Supper. As Christ handed us the bread and wine I felt He was asking us to realize there is a part of God in each of us and that the purpose of communion is to renew our awareness of this fact. Another time I watched Christ’s face take on the features of my husband and children, friends, acquaintances, and finally persons of each color and race, showing once again the God-self in every person. Before taking LSD I accepted evolution merely as an interesting fact which largely had occurred mil- lions of years ago. Almost every experience has dealt with one phase or another of this subject until now I see evolution as the very mean- ing and purpose of our existence. To me it has become an exciting personal growth taking place day after day through life after life as we evolve from limited animal emo- tions to full awareness, use, and freedom of our God-selves. These experiences have left me with a number of ‘convictions. _ It seems to me every person is at a slightly different stage of evolution; and the highly evolved are more able to help and contribute but are no better than the lesser evolved. I believe we shall eventually be capable of the wisdom, understand- ing, and overwhelming intensity of such feeling as ecstasy, happiness, love, forgiveness, and dozens of other emotions, experienced under the vision-producing substances, in our every day lives. The speed at which we evolve depends upon our spiritual awareness and our ability to contact our inner wisdom, free our creative talents, and feel the full force of our positive emotions, all “furnished”, so .to speak, by our souls. I am convinced that to date we have had only glimpses of great art, heard a few notes of great music, and can feel only the rudimentary tinges of great love; and that the evolution of the future will bring about the promised kingdom of heaven on earth and within our-
Page 30
c Wee Ts 30 selves. Although I feel that govern- ments will rise and fall and crime and injustice will exist for centuries to come, I am still a hopeless opti- mist. I believe that eternity, stretch- ing before us, will bring develop- ments and joys impossible now to imagine. Gerald Heard once told me that he believed crime, suicide, and all neurosis and psychosis stems from a person’s feeling isolated with his problems. He defined science as the taking apart of things and religion as putting everything together, add- ing that the purpose of religion was to give each of us a feeling of one- ness with all who live. This feeling of oneness, which results in toler- ance, respect, and love for others, is brought out in many ways. One is almost constantly identified with plants, animals, and persons of all ages, nationalities, and races, feel- ing with seeming stark reality what each must feel. Yet the feelings are the same as those you and I feel. From this I gain the conviction: We are one. Once there came before me, sym- bolizing the heart of all humanity, a rhythmically beating human heart the size of a three-story building. A single drop of blood represented each person who lives. Which drop was myself I neither knew nor cared; we were each a tiny part of God’s life blood. Throughout one entire day I watched huge glowing FATE vats of. molten glass. This time grains of sand symbolized each of us. They were melted, stirred, and blown in glass, I had an overwhelm- beauty by the Divine Glass Blower. Reincarnation was nothing more than the remelting of old glass and the blowing of new forms of increas- ing splendor. Such experiences leave one with a feeling not only of oneness but of being a small yet integral part of the universe. At times convictions come with- out conscious understanding. For example, as I watched the common bloodstream of the huge “heart of humanity”, and the melted sand blown in glass, I had an overwhelm- ing feeling that a part of me is also a part of you and a part of you is a part of me. I cannot understand this concept, yet it gives me a great- er interest in you and love for you. Another non-logical conviction is that, except as a man-made concept, time does not exist; there is only now. Eternity is now, without be- ginning or end. This unreasoned conviction has made my nows more rewarding and filled with apprecia- tion and awareness of the richness of life. Thus, by means of visions and insights, understanding’ is gained, attitudes are altered, questions are answered. It is said that when his- tory is written this century will be recorded as the one in which man discovered he could explore his in-

For this reason I hope I may take LSD two or three times each year as long as I live. A friend who, in a few interven- ing months after a single LSD ex- perience, has become an accom- plished sculptor and successful in a new business venture, remarked to me: “It’s the most important dis- covery of this century.” Many would disagree. Yet he may be right. Note: Neither the author nor FATE can help readers obtain LSD. THE YOGI WHO SLOWED HIS HEART N OLD CLAIM of Indian Yogis is that they are able to will their hearts to stop beating—a feat which medical science considers physiologically impossible, A report of a care- ful scientific study of this claim, published in the Decem- ber, 1961, issue of Circulation, monthly journal of the Amer- ican Heart Association, indi- cates that, in rare instances, it is briefly possible. A group of yogis in India was studied by the authors of the article, Dr. M. A. Wenger of the University of California, Dr. B. K. Bagchi of the Uni- versity of Michigan and Dr. B. K. Anand of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi. The research team reported having found that three yogis, who claimed to be able to will their hearts to stop, simply were capable of mask- ing their heart beats. By tensing the muscles of throat, upper body and arms, and by holding their breaths, they suc- ceeded in slowing the flow of blood back to the heart to an extent sufficient to reduce nor- mal heart sounds. Although this technique may deceive a stethoscope, tests with an elec- trocardiograph—w hich regis- ters the electrical activity of the heart rather than the sounds—showed no real loss of heart action. The only change was the minor one to be ex- pected as a result of the muscular exertion. An electrocardiogram of a fourth yogi, who claimed only that he could slow his heart, showed that his heart action was changed briefly to an ab- normal rhythm, accompanied by an extremely slow pace. At one point it showed a lapse of over five seconds ‘between heart beats.

All the earlier Christians recog- nized that it could happen; some even made provision for exorcism of troublesome spirits. A Scottish prayerbook read, “From.

But in my childhood people did not see spirits. Especially-they did not see ghosts of ministers’ wives. And this is why my father and I “forgot” an event for 40 years. I am sure that in telling this story today, I am not offending the con- gregation of the church in which I was reared. Three years ago the present minister of this church preached my father’s sermon en- titled, “There Are Many ‘Roads To Heaven.” This’ would ‘not have been possible in my éarly ‘childhood.,

Sic: pees wee STR I was a very impressionable child and my memory of early times is phenomenal. “I remember a few things from my first year, a great many from my second and prac- tically all of my third. I am tell- ing you this so‘that you will trust my memory of what occurred in 1921, in the city of Columbus, Ohio, when I was three years old. We lived with my father’s par- ents, next door to our minister, Mr. Johnson. He was a gentle, saintly man and his wife was.a mothering angel. They had four daughters who seemed to me then grown up ladies, but I know now that they were well-behaved teen-agers. In those days, our denomination tried to follow the Bible according to the very letter; it was so con- servative as to be almost rigid. The Johnsons did not even prepare food on Sunday, but fixed it the night before. But God was Love and their home was my second home and Mrs. Johnson my second moth- er. When I was told she had died, I could not or would not grasp the fact. I remember overhearing the information that Mrs. Johnson’s body had been packed on ice until the funeral and not embalmed, so that the biblical “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,” would be violated no more than was absolutely necessary. This was my first experience would not come. Apparently my father could not sleep either. I .heard him get up in the dark and with death and that night sleep 33 walk ‘toward the bathroom without turning on a light. I listened to his footsteps. Suddenly. they halted and I heard him give a smothered exclamation. Needing’ only a little excuse, I was out of bed and by his side in a second. He was standing by the hall win- dow at the head of the stairs, star- ing down into the Johnson’s dining room. As I looked, I saw a small light in there, like a candle just lit and beginning to shine. Walking about with this light, or in it, was Mrs. Johnson. We had no difficulty in seeing her though the light was with her and around her instead of being diffused over the room. Her features looked happy and pleasant just as they always did and it seemed to me she was just going about her housework. “Why doesn’t she eaftch on the electric light?” I asked my father, but when I looked at him he seemed dazed, or entranced. We watched her for some time, probably for 10 or 12 minutes. asked again, “Why doesn’t she turn on the light?” Shortly after this the light and she both walked out of our range of sight and the glow faded —as though she had walked into another room. paeh le K ihe

34 I went to bed with my question still unanswered. But now, sleep came easily. The next morning at breakfast my grandmother mentioned that today her dear friend’s body would be brought back for the funeral and burial. “She isn’t dead,” I said, “Daddy and I saw her.” Conversation stop- ped. They all looked at me, then at my father. He squirmed. With his eyes on his plate, he said, “Yes . we saw her. Walking in the dining room last night.” My grandmother said, “Oh Ar- thur Douglas, you couldn’t have! You must have seen one of the girls.” “She isn’t dead,” I cried, “I know Mrs. Johnson when I see her.” My grandmother either convinced my father or caused him to shut his mouth forever concerning this vision. But she never convinced me. A short time after the funeral I was certain I was right. I went into the yard that morning and there, next door in the bright sun- light, picking apples, was Mrs. John- son. I screamed her name and she turned and smiled and waved at me in the most everyday manner. I tore around the house, through our gate, her gate and back around her house to get to her. But when I got there she was gone. I knocked on the kitchen door for I supposed she was inside. One FATE of her grownup daughters answered and when I asked for Mrs. Johnson, _she picked me up, pressed me close, gave me sweets and amused me until I forgot my purpose in com- ing. Next day, I saw the minister in the yard. I came close to the fence, called him and began to tell him about seeing her. He took a large white handerchief from his pocket, put it over his face and walked into the house overcome with his sor- row, brought on by what he prob- ably considered the piteous inno- cence of a child. News of this must have reached my grandmother. She now sat me down and gave me a talking to. She said I was never to go around any- more telling people that I saw Mrs. Johnson. Years passed. I went to school and the Johnson girls began to marry. The minister married again. Many experiences had crowded back the memory of the first Mrs. Johnson. She became a puzzling, vaguely troubling enigma. Some- how I must have accepted the fact that she was dead, but I do not re- member doing so. Many years passed .. . the older generation all left us and the church changed unnoticeably with the times. Darwin’s theory was accepted and embalming now seemed as indis- pensable as woman’s make-up and silk stockings. We saw picture

He felt he could not go on living without hear- ing something of her. He began oc- casionally to go to mediums and the comfort he found in messages received there would hardly have been denied him by anyone. By now the enemies of life after death were not established churches but men of Science. There was no proof, they said. As I learned more, I found out how much proof they chose to disregard and ignore. Fourteen years after mother’s death, my father knew that he was drawing close to his own death. He was saddened and afraid. For still in his mind were the lingering doubts implanted in his childhood. Although he had studied for 14 years he still felt he did not know. One day he said to me from his bed, “How do I know that I’ll see your mother again. The messages could have been mind reading. So many have died but none have come back. Nof one ever came back to me—TI never saw any of them.” Suddenly an old memory came to me in purest glory. “You saw Mrs. Johnson,” I said to him. “What?”, he said, staring at me. “You saw Mrs. Johnson, that night in the dark in the hall. We both saw her down there in her dining room.” I cannot describe what happened to his face as he remembered. It was as though a light had been turned on behind it . . . a radiance seemed to shine from all his fea- tures. “T did,” he said slowly. “How could I have forgotten it?” Almost 40 years had passed and neither of us had ever told the story. My father died easier, I know, because of the memory we shared. _I never told this story out of re- spect for the Johnson girls . . their right name. If they are all still alive, they are scattered and are leaving middle age. If I have offended some who still believe in no life until Judgment, along with the doubting scientists, I can only say this after 40 years, “We saw her, we saw her, we saw her.” And we kept silent too long.

es BODY OF Joe Scott, dis- tinguished citizen and civic leader, lay in silent state in the rotunda of the Los Angeles City Hall. But the voice of Joe Scott was not silent. The unusual and distinctive voice of Joe Scott, the voice that nomi- nated Herbert Hoover for President of the U.S., spoke out through a clairvoyant the very night before his funeral rites. Joe Scott’s message was as uni- que and personalized as his voice, and both voice and message were captured forever on an electronic tape recorder. The message was in- tended for the city editor of the Los Angeles Herald-Express, and the message, the voice, and the unique pronunciation have all been ana- lyzed and identified. Thus, psychic researchers have been given a uni- que example of communication to support the belief in survival of the human personality. 36 | Taped a Pore By James Gnikaa In the tantalizing search for con- clusive evidence of survival, plan- ned phenomena which may have evidential value often prove diffi- cult to check and evaluate, while spontaneous phenomena usually catch the researcher unprepared. The most evidential cases rarely suit the convenience of researchers, who would at least like to be ready with pad and pencil or, better yet, a tape recorder at the critical mo- ment. So I was happy to have had a tape machine almost ready to roll one evening in late March, 1958, when I was unexpectedly ad- dressed by a voice that was pur- portedly motivated by a deceased person whose body still lay in state at the Los Angeles City Hall. Joseph Scott was a noted Los Angeles attorney, civic patriarch, political leader (he delivered the presidential nominating speech for Herbert Hoover at the 1932 na- tional Republican convention), prominent Catholic layman and
Page 37
Dead Man’s Voice Be This reporter's tape recorded a message for his city editor— a message from a man whose body lay in silent state. also a professional Irishman. This last avocation was some- thing of an anomaly, inasmuch as he was born in Penrith, Cumber- land County, England. His father was, as is appropriately reflected in the family name, from Scotland, while his mother came from Ire- land. This international heritage combined to give Joe Scott a very personable and popular character. It also gave him an unusual speak- ing voice and certain unique pro- nunciations of some words. The death of Joseph Scott on March 24, 1958, at the age of 90, was a major event in Los Angeles history. He was so loved and re- spected that his body was placed in the rotunda of the 25-story Los ‘Angeles City Hall, to lie in state until the final rites were conducted on March 29 by His Eminence James Francis Cardinal McIntyre. Tt was on the day before this service, while the venerable Joe 37
Page 38
38 Scott—or, rather, his remains— still lay in the City Hall, that I had a telephone conversation which may have established what some psychics call a “vibrational link” with a personality who said he was the surviving consciousness of Jo- seph Scott. The conversation was with Mrs. Agness Underwood, city editor of the Los Angeles Evening Herald- Express and long known as the only woman city editor of a metropolitan daily in the United States. Her book, Newspaperwoman, has been widely acclaimed, and in Decem- ber, 1960, a competing newspaper, ‘the Los Angeles Times, recognized her unique achievements by nam- ing her “Weman of the Year.” As an editor, Mrs. Underwood often had occasion to communicate with Joseph Scott—in person, by telephone and by letter—concern- ing civic matters or news events. They were long-time friends. In our phone conversation she told me how much she regretted not having seen him again before his death. His office was near the newspaper plant and she some- times went over for a chat. At 90 he was still in active legal practice and so she had made an appoint- ment to see him on the Friday be- fore his passing. His secretary regretfully cancelled the appoint- ment because he had been hospital- ized. FATE: Whether or not my talk with the editor was the connecting link or psychic cause of what followed later that evening, I do not know. I can only say, in order that the record may be full, accurate and clear, that my wife, Mrs. Brenda Rowland Crenshaw, was aware of the telephone call but knew nothing of Joseph Scott and said at the time she had not heard of him be- fore. In 1958 she had been in this country only a little more than two years, having come to Los Angeles from London, where she had won recognition as a clairvoyant of con- siderable perceptivity. She also had become a channel for occasional light trance control, usually mani- festing as a highly inspirational flow of words with an almost poetic quality, rather than the differing speech of a wide range of personali- ties so often observed in the trance state. Consequently I was unprepared for a completely different kind of speaking on the evening in ques- tion. My wife had sat down and was preparing to give such counsel- ‘ing as she could for a friend who had requested it. I was fumbling with my recorder, readying it for the session, but before I could start it, I heard my last name called twice. The tone was deep, hoarse and, for my wife, unnatural. (As I look back on it now, of all the
Page 39
I TAPED A DEAD MAN’S VOICE 39 many attorneys I have known in Los Angeles, only one—Joe Scott —ever addressed me in quite that way, for the pronunciation was a quick, characteristic staccato and the intonation unmistakably ori- ginal.) I quickly started the machine. “Scott! Scott!” said the husky, throaty voice. There seemed to be a struggle for control, but again the pronunciation was clear enough to be identified later as thoroughly characteristic, not as most persons would pronounce the name but as Joe Scott himself pronounced it. The “o” was almost a long “o” but not quite, whereas usually the vowel is given a short sound. The next words were harder to understand because of a gasping, excited effort by the speaker. First there was another name: “Agness Underwood!” Then the message: “Give my devotion. Tell her I live on!” As the taped record now shows, all I could think of in my surprise was to ask: “Whoe” The voice repeated: “Scott.” And the -pronunciation was the same. Before he finally lost control, the speaker made another great effort, managing to say again: “Tell her I live on!” That was all there was to it. At best, it appeared to be just an- other greeting, supposedly from the beyond. I clipped off the few feet. of tape with the message on it and gave the rest of the reel to my friend, whose interview with Mrs. Crenshaw went ahead as planned. The Scott fragment was stored away and not re-played again until November 19, 1960, more than two and one-half years later. I had decided against telling
Page 40
40 Mrs. Underwood about the matter until I could play the recording for her, and unfortunately the occasion did not arise until the above date in 1960, when she was a guest in our home. She agreed that, even under the difficult conditions of the control, the voice sounded like that of Jo- seph Scott, and then she said that she believed the word “devotion” in the message had a special mean- ing. A few days later I received a packet of 11 letters from her for my examination. She had received them from Joseph Scott over a period of years. The subject matter ranged from a “thank you” note for the “admirable way you stream- lined the visit of the Irish Minister of External Affairs and the Irish Minister to the United States” (who had been Joe Scott’s special guests in Los Angeles) to expressions of appreciation for a Joe Scott bio- graphical series in the Herald-Ex- press. The first three letters, all in 1949, were simply signed, “Sincerely yours, Joseph Scott.” Then came one, dated July 17, 1950, thanking the lady editor for a birthday greeting. It was signed, “Your devoted friend, Joseph Scott.” The next letter was dated the following day. It noted that he had not seen a news story about his BAe FATE birthday when he had sent the first letter. This letter was signed, “Sincerely . . .” So was one dated May 2, 1951, a note of thanks for news coverage of one of the orator- ical Mr. Scott’s speeches. Thereafter, with the exception of one letter in 1952, all the, rest ended with the use of some varia- tion of the word “devotion.” Here is the list: July 17, 1950 — “Your devoted friend .. .” July 16, 1951 — “Your devoted friend...” July 19, 1951 — “Devotedly yours . . .” - August 14, 1951 — “Faithfully and devotedly yours .. .” November 13, 1957 — “Devoted- ly yours... .” At a later meeting with my wife, at which I was not present, Mrs. Underwood reported that the same deep, hoarse voice which was re- produced on the recorded tape took control of Mrs. Crenshaw’s vocal apparatus. So far as I know, these are the only two occasions upon which this very distinctive voice ever has been heard through a psychic instrument. On the second occasion, the con- trol was more complete and the handling of the human mechanism more facile. Mrs. Underwood says that she and the controlling person- ality talked of many things which were first correctly brought up by
Page 41
.I TAPED A DEAD MAN’S VOICE the communicating “Joseph Scott.” At one point, the speaker addressed her as “Little One,” a phrase he had eccasionally used during his lifetime, and—using the human instrument under control—he patted her shoulder in a peculiar way, just as he had done sometimes when he was alive. But in the end, the validity of the cemmunications, the corner- stone ef the proof of survival, if it is preof, rests on one word—“de- votion.” Analyzing the usual explanations in mest cases of survival evidence, the careful student will want to consider: 1. Coincidence. Can the long arm be stretched far enough to include all the unique circumstances here? 2. Fraud. This, of course, I can- not consider and others will have to dismiss it for lack of motive. 3. Forgotten access to informa- tion. My wife, a British subject, resident of Los Angeles only a little more than two years at the time of Jeseph Scott’s death, knew little or nothing of his activities and certainly had no knowledge of Mrs. Underweod’s correspondence with him. Neither had I. 4. Telepathy. This is always diffi- cult te rule out.

Even at the time of her later visit to our home, Mrs. Underwood was not then sure whether the word “devotion” was significant. It was only when she examined the letters that she was sure. 5. The “psychic osmosis” theory. This holds that a sensitive may at times absorb bits of information from the psychic ether, tuning in here and there, according to what- ever stimulus may be provided. In my wife’s case, I never have known of any similar “tuning in,” espec- ially where it would involve pick- ing up a word or phrase from a document the existence of which is not even suggested. To me, the much simpler theory is that Joseph Scott knew that his friend planned to see him just be- fore he became ill and keenly re- gretted missing the appointment. It was natural, therefore, that he should try to get some word to her. And wasn’t it natural, too, that the key word of his message should be the one he so often had used to close his letters to her in the past? “Cae wane!

By Cheito We HAD BEEN trapped in the ancient Egyptian tomb more than 48 hours. My companion, the elderly archeologist Professor Von Heller, had sunk into a coma. There was no escape. Within hours. the antique burial chamber would be- come the final resting place for two modern bodies— the professor’s and mine. In these moments of ultimate de- 42 spair there was no modern skill or scientific instrument that I could use to escape inevitable death. Only the ancient arts of concentration and the age-old practice of astral projection offered any chance to save our lives. These were arts that I had prac- ticed in India where for several years my home had been an old cave temple carved out of solid rock
Page 43
by a now-forgotten race. Here, my only food had been a diet of fruit and rice——my only companions a few men who had given up the world, the flesh, and, perhaps the devil. The contrast between this con- templative life and the rush and roar of modern London was the very thing that had led me into my present peril. On my return from India to Lon- don I found I was out of tune with so-called civilization. In my de- spair, with everything jangling my senses, one day I heard of an ex- pedition starting for Egypt. The purpose of the expedition was to explore ruined temples at El Kar- nak and in the Valley of the Tombs of the Kings. I offered my services and was accepted. At last came a beautiful night when we were gliding up the Nile on a well-equipped dahabeah, a long, shallow-draft Egyptian house- boat. In the beauty of the night it was easy to forget the noise of the great city of London. A night on the Nile means a crescent moon in a purple sky, and a great silent river flowing through rice and cot- ton fields. Beyond, stretches of un- known desert with some broken temple or giant pyramid speak of the age-long past. Our expedition headquartered at El Karnak. We were four Euro- peans and the two Arab interpret- 43 ers we had employed at Cairo. Von Heller, an elderly German professor of archeology, was the leader of the expedition. We were to represent the English government in making arrangements for the future safe custody of certain tombs being pill- aged by a local band of Arabs. On the morning after our arrival, the professor decided to start off on his own trip of exploration, leaving our companions to do what they pleased. Taking only one guide and myself, he crossed the Nile and traveled toward the mysterious val- ley — the site of Egypt’s first im- perial capitol. It was scarcely dawn. The first streaks of light from the eastern horizon were shooting like arrows EDITOR’S NOTE Under the professional name of Cheiro, Count Louis Hamon, who died in 1936, was world-famed as a palmist and clairvoyant.

a 44 across the sky as we slowly made our way into the Valley of Tombs. The professor and I paused for a. moment at the mouth of the valley. It seemed that even here at its very threshold everything animate and inanimate in the valley resented our intrusion. A large bat flew out of one of the tombs and dashed against our faces. A long black snake crossed our path, hissing with anger as it passed. Still we went on, and before long reached the entrance of what ap- peared to be an exceptionally deep- set tomb running far back into a towering mountain of rock. This type of tomb was of great interest to the professor so we be- gan a thorough exploration of its passageways. Hour after hour by the light of our lanterns we wander- ed, always carefully noting down each painted heiroglyphic in order to find our way out. There was still another reason for our caution. The professor had - become suspicious of our Arab guide. He had noticed that the more he had insisted on going far- ther into the tomb, the more the Arab tried to mislead him. We finally reached a curious heptagon-shaped chamber totally unlike any other we had passed through. Its seven sides were made of panels of black marble so highly polished that we could see our re- flections as if in mirrors. FATE Not a single mark or heiroglyphic was on any of these walls, In the center of the black roof was a single sign —that of Osiris in his capacity of lord of the other world. We went round this chamber several times before we realized that we had lost the passage by which we had entered. Seven pass- ages led off at the seven angles. Passages so identical that it was impossible to tell one from the other. Suddenly our guide disappeared. To our horror, we realized that we were lost and might never be able to find our way back to the outer world. We had taken only a few sand- wiches with us and we already had eaten these during our morning hike. The pangs of real hunger began to make themselves felt, and we be- gan to shiver in the cold of the underground crypt. The professor and I were dressed in the lightest of clothes, suitable for the tropic weather outdoors, but unsuited to the chilliness of our underground prison. To save the oil in the two lanterns we carried, we extinguished one, making the gloom of the place still more im- pressive. Again and again we tried to get out by groping our way some dis- tance into each of the seven pass- ages that led from the chamber, but we came to realize that escape
Page 45
Oe Ree Points uf Raa a ee Se es ASTRAL PROJECTION SAVED MY LIFE 45 was hopeless. To add to our horror, we stumbled across human bones that told the story of others before us who had been trapped. Completely exhausted, we lay down on the cold floor and waited — waited — waited. My watch told me that another day already had started in the outer world. At last we blew out our last lantern to save the oil for a final attempt at escape. The professor, a religious man, at times prayed fervently to God to help us. I have to admit that I was not able to follow his example; my mind was too numbed by despair to expect a miracle. Yet there was one gleam of hope that came again and again into my mind. The face of one of the guides seemed to haunt me in the darkness. This guide had fallen ill on the way up the Nile on the boat. I had diagnosed his case as malaria and doctored him with quinine. I often had sat with him for hours to cheer him up. He seemed intensely grateful to me, and the night be- fore we reached El Karnak he told me that he was anxious to reach El Karnak because it was the place he called home. He told me that he was not an Arab, but was of old Egyptian stock whose ancestors had been priests_ serving the temples of El Karnak. He ended by saying, “You have been good to me, sir. If I can ever help you, call on me.” Because this man was ill, the pro- fessor and I had left him behind and had taken the treacherous guide instead. As his face cropped up again in my thoughts, I determined to call on him for help. In India I learned the practice of mental concentration. I made up my mind to use that power. In my mind I found a picture of the guide lying in his hut on the other side of the Nile. Using all my force of will, I sent out the thought-mess- age, “Come to my rescue, I am in need of your help!” Again and again in the silence of the old tomb I sent out the same ~ message. Another day passed, hours that _ seemed like eternities. Faint from hunger and exhaustion, the old pro- fessor sank into a coma. I determined to make one more effort. Lying full length, face down, I concentrated all my power on seeing the man I wanted to influ- ence. In my imagination I pro- jected my astral-self into the guide’s hut. In my mind I could see him lying with his eyes closed, weak and ill. I tried to force my message into his brain. I saw him open his eyes, attempt to rise to his feet, then fall to the floor. Another effort of my will — the guide staggered to his feet, lighted a lantern and went out into the night. In my vision I followed him ee
Page 46
46 to where our companions were stay- ing, and listened as the guide heard that the professor and I were miss- ing. I could not follow farther, the effort was too much in my weak- ened state. My mind slipped into FATE unconsciousness and I remember no more. When I awoke men were rubbing my hands and feet. The guide had my head in his lap, pouring drops of brandy down my throat — we were saved! 3 ‘A “DEAD” SON COMES HOME By Raymond C. Otto N THE YEAR 1900 grief- stricken Giueseppina Caldo of Sicily attended funeral serv- ices for her son, Giueseppe, who was declared dead at the age of two. His death, how- ever, was only apparent, and the terrified undertaker fled the cemetery when the baby started to move in the coffin . after the services were over and everybody else had left. A woman passing by the un- attended coffin, saw the child sitting up and crying. Having just lost her own son, she took the baby to her home. The undertaker returned to the cemetery and, to avoid having to explain the empty coffin, filled it with stones and buried it. The woman who had stolen the boy reared him as her own until she died a few years later. On her deathbed she entrusted the boy to a childless couple, to whom she confided the whole story under oath that they would never tell him. When he became of age, Giue- seppe went to North Africa where he lived until a few years ago. Upon his return to Italy with his own family, he settled in Milan where he de- cided to open a bar. To obtain the required license he needed a birth certificate. He wrote to Sicily and was informed that local records showed that he had died 61 years before. He went to Sicily to investi- gate and after nearly six months he finally was able to put together the strange story of his past. He traced his moth- er, aged 96, to a village only a few miles from his birth place. She was almost fatally shocked when he suddenly walked into her home, embraced her and fondly called her ‘“mama”—this after nearly 62 years. v

YE SHALL RECEIVE By Ann Wigmore M* NEEDS always have been met in direct proportion to my own willingness to share my own worldly goods with others. I have seen the great truth of “as ye give so shall ye receive.” One particular demonstration of this truth stands out in my mind. Some years ago the Congregational minister in Stoughton, Mass., was the Rey. Theodore Thomas. Rev- erend Thomas was not well-paid and his wife was forced to devote all her time to the effort of main- taining a family of five on a mini- mum budget. One day she said to me that she deeply regretted her inability to get around to visit the widely scattered ailing, that her life seemed frustrated because she could not get out to help the needy. Realizing her sincerity, I cast my mind over her problem and recog- nized that an automobile would make it possible for this good wo- man to get out and work among the needful. In a desire to help, I promised that the next money I received would be turned over to her as a down payment on a small, used car. Within a week my own situation altered. I found an opportunity for a mission in the West and I needed a car myself as much, or even more, than did Mrs. Thomas. But when an unexpected gift of $50 came to me a few days later — ample for a down payment on a car —JI could ANN WIGMORE
Page 48
48 not forget my obligation. I handed the money over to Mrs. Thomas, asking that she thank only the Al- mighty as my part in the transac- tion was minor. I did not abandon the thought that a way would be provided by which I, also, could obtain an auto- mobile. In fact, I quietly selected the car I wanted and received as- surance that it would be held for me until the following Saturday eve- ning. I knew that someway, from somewhere, the necessary funds would flow into my hands. And I was not disappointed. Without my asking, on Friday after- noon, came a gift from a friend, of $100 —a friend who did not know of my extreme need. This enabled me to leave, in my own car, for the West on the morning I had planned. Unsullied faith is the only method whereby the cornucopia of plenty may be made to spill its contents. I have found this true over many, many years. — Boston, Mass. WISH COME TRUE By Greta Bloomhill (14 Y DEAREST WISH is to meet you, Greta. If you could pay a visit to us my wife and I would be delighted.” My new brother-in-law sent this charming note to me on my wed- ding day along with a magnificent gift. But I was destined to see him just once —in a prophetic dream. FATE My husband’s half-brother Sam, my new brother-in-law, and his fam- ily lived at De Aar, in South Africa, and we at Bulawayo, in Southern Rhodesia. The 857-mile trip down south was beyond our means, so it appeared that years would elapse before either my husband or I could undertake it. However, fate inter- vened. After the birth of my eldest child I grew so run-down in health that our doctor advised a holiday in Port Elizabeth on the South African coast for me. As De Aar was a railway junction en route, at Clara’s and Sam’s ‘repeated invitation, I arranged to stay a couple of weeks with them on my way. We were, at that time, running a small mixed farm in the suburb of Hillside, near Bulawayo. My hands were pretty full managing the farm all day while my husband was in town at work. I had no time for day dreaming. At night I was so tired out with my innumerable chores that I fell asleep as soon as my head touched the pillow and slept soundly and dreamlessly till daybreak. However, one night a few days before my departure was due I had a dream. I dreamt that I boarded the train with my baby, said goodbye to my husband, and waved to him as the train chugged off. The whole 857- mile long journey to De Aar passed
Page 49
TRUE MYSTIC EXPERIENCES swiftly. Then I recall meeting my sister-in-law, Clara, at a doorway. We greeted one another and I asked her, ‘““Where’s Sam?” “Tn here,” she replied. She led me into a room outside the house. I now know that room to be the exact replica of an operating thea- ter, with all the accessories of such a place. Under a bright electric light, shining over the operating table, lay the figure of a powerfully built man. But I could not see his face because it was covered, as was his body, by a shroud. “This is Sam,” said Clara. “He is dead.” At that moment I woke and, al- though I was well tucked in under the blankets, I shivered at the icy breeze that was passing through the room. Shall I tell my husband of this dream? I thought, no, it is only a dream. Therefore, my husband went off to work that morning with- out being told of my disturbing dream. As for me, although no word about it passed my lips, the experience and the icy blast that chilled my awakening haunted me all day. That afternoon I was surprised to see my husband return from work much earlier than usual, but gave little thought to the matter. He was distraught and gloomy and, although usually he had a good appetite, ate a poor meal. 49 It was our custom to take a walk after dinner. As we were sauntering arm-in-arm through the garden, I said to him, “Why are you so quiet tonight? Has something upset you?” “Prepare yourself for a shock,” he replied. “I had a telegram from De Aar this afternoon.” “Good heavens!” I cried. is dead!” “He is. But how did you know?” Then I told him of my dream. But only two days later, when a letter from my sister-in-law arrived, did we realize how uncannily correct that dream was. Sam had got a sudden, acute at- tack of gallstones. The pain per- sisted so severely that he was rushed to the nearest hospital, at Kimberley, where there was a fully equipped operating theater, and operated on at once, But he died on the operating table. There is little doubt in my mind that his spirit communicated with me, although I was 857 miles away. What makes the whole episode even more amazing is that when I did arrive at De Aar and came to my sister-in-law’s house, I recognized the front as the very house I had entered in my dream. — Bulawayo, S. Rhodesia. | SAW THE END By Clarence S. Benedict FELT it must be the end. Four years ago I had a heart attack. “Sam

50 I knew that the doctors and nurses were greatly concerned, but in my state I didn’t care. I thought, if this is it —it’s it! I had taken care of my mother during her last illness and I knew what to expect. I just asked God to take care of me. Suddenly I looked up at the ceil- ing of my room in Grand Rapids’ Blodgett Hospital. It started to get dark although all the lights in the room were burning brightly. I lost all sense of time. Then I saw a belt, like the drive belt on a heavy-duty machine. It was passing right over my head, a white belt moving very fast. I saw that it was smudged — black smudg- es across the belt. I thought, “Those smudges of black are words, and if that belt would only slow up I could read it.” As I thought this, the belt did start to slow; at each turn of the belt I could see the smudges form into words. Finally I could read them. A peaceful feeling came over me, a feeling much like waking up on Sunday and realizing that one does not have to get up and go to work. Only the feeling I had was much stronger as I saw the words on the belt spell out, The 23rd Psalm: “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want...” When I came to — or came back _—three doctors and three nurses FATE were standing over me. I had seen the end. And knew there was noth- ing there to fear.— Grand Rapids, Mich. MY LIFESAVING PREMONITION By Lynne Towne I AWOKE WITH a premonition of urgency. I couldn’t under- stand it, but perhaps the funeral I was going to may have had some- thing to do with it. But how could the funeral of our old friend, Mrs. Boyd, evoke such a sinister emo- tion? I was only 19 and never had been to a funeral. The very thought of seeing someone in a coffin was dis- turbing but had to be faced. I was the only one in our family who was free to attend since my sister, with whom I lived, had to leave for work. All at once I realized that I had been walking toward downtown Los Angeles without being aware that I had even left the flat where I lived. I didn’t have to be there until 2:30 in the afternoon. It would give me time to walk off this feeling of foreboding. The day was warm, the sun beat down on me. I forgot the bus com- pletely. I was as in a trance. Each time I finished a block I pushed on to the next one, counting them off, subtracting them from the distance to my sister’s office. I wasn’t supposed to go to her office. Why was I thinking of it?
Page 51
TRUE MYSTIC EXPERIENCES She would be angry, I knew that! But my feet kept right on in that direction. Facing her would not be pleasant, but it had to be done; I was going to tell her that I couldn’t go to the funeral. I had my own personal reasons. I knew now that I had to see my mother! My sister did not understand, but her pleas and arguments fell on deaf ears. The compulsion was ada- mant and quickly propelled me from my sister’s office and on my way. I had a long way to go, the street car and two buses . . . I must re- member to get transfers. These were the depression years and money was not to be wasted. My family had fallen upon hard times; our big home was gone with unpaid taxes, My mother was a courageous wo- man and always managed to think of some way to earn a dollar. This time it was a used furniture store located on the east side of L.A., on Firestone Blvd. and Beach St. Finally I boarded the last bus and sat right behind the driver and prodded him with “can’t you go any faster?” He yelled irritably “what’s your hurry, lady? I’m going as fast as the law allows, now!” I was like an animal, instinctively smelling danger; I felt the urgency of life or death! At last I reached the door to the store and I could see my family SI LYNNE TOWNE through the window; they were all there, sitting in rocking chairs. My dad was holding my little sister on his lap. My mother sat next to them. I was glad that there were no customers. I burst in upon fen and they showed their surprise, “What was I doing there? Why wasn’t I at Mrs. Boyd’s funeral?” I told them how strong my desire was to come to them instead, but they were unable to understand such metaphysical re- actions. We sat together about one minute when my inner voice said, “You must get them out of those rocking chairs.” I thought of food, and said, “Let’s all go. back and get some- thing to eat.” They agreed and got up, following me like three robots — unusual in itself. My dad was normally not that agreeable.
Page 52
52 No sooner had we stepped past the doorway curtain that separated the kitchen from the main store than a tremendous crash shook the whole building. My mother screamed, “Earth- quake! Earthquake!” Instinctively I said, “No, it’s not. Let me by, T’ll go and see.” I parted the cur- tains and there in the middle of the store was a big black sedan with a redheaded woman at the wheel. She had come full speed through the plate glass window. My first thought was to look for the chairs my family had been sit- ting in. My eyes searched the de- bris-filled store. Then I saw the chairs, crushed into little pieces, FATE underneath the back of the car. It had passed completely over them. I realized then the full signific- ance of the powerful compulsion which had brought me to this place, on this particular day, at this par- ticular time. For an instant I was overcome by the horror-of the trag- edy which this same compulsion had averted. I breathed a prayer of thanks to the Divine guidance that had sent me there. When all the excitement was over, my family boarded up the store and moved out. But they still tell friends that if I had gone to the funeral of Mrs. Boyd, I would also have gone to three other fun- erals — theirs. — Van Nuys, Calif. CRY CLOSE BRUSHES WITH COINCIDENCE oe THINGS, it was re- ported recently, happen to objects placed on canvas by Mrs. E. DeWitt Whitener, an artist of Arlington, Va. The first, she recalled, was. when she set up her easel at Hains Point and painted the markets along Maine Avenue. The mar- kets disappeared a short time later in line with the South- west Redevelopment program. Not long after she painted an old lighthouse at Blackstone Island on the lower Potomac, it burned down. “When she painted an old bridge at Ocean City, Md., itwas dynamited as a hazard to navigation. Next, she said, she painted a friend’s pier at St. Clement’s Shores—and it was demolished in a battle with winter ice. By this time, she related, she was aware that something odd was associated with the subjects of her paintings. The impression was confirmed recently when she painted Key Bridge and in- cluded Dempsey’s Boathouse. The boathouse went up in flames a few days later. Mrs. Whitener stated she now has an eerie feeling when she picks up a paint brush. Asked if she planned to do a portrait of her husband, she said she “wouldn’t dare.”

Report of alleged ESP tests by U.S. military startled USSR into revealing pros and cons of ESP in the Soviet. By Cuakis ihe OME WHILE AGO the French magazine Science et Vie pub- lished a story of ESP experiments aboard the U.S. submarine Nauti- lus which attracted a great deal of attention in—of all places—the Soviet Union, although practically nothing was heard of it in this country. According to Science et Vie, long distance tests were carried out be- tween two persons, one of whom was aboard the nuclear-powered vessel while it was submerged. One of the experimenters, so the story goes, concentrated on the symbols of a typical set of Zener ESP cards 53 —circles, crosses, rectangles, etc. — while the other experimenter re- corded the images that came to his mind. The results, the article stat- ed, showed clear evidence of tele- pathy. It is understandable why the So- viets should have been impressed by this report. First, here was the United States apparently taking ESP so seriously as to be using it in military experiments. Second, according to the reports, the experi- ments were successful. The Soviets apparently were alarmed unduly. Dr. Joseph B. Rhine, director of the Parapsycho-
Page 54
54 logy Laboratory at Duke Univer- sity, doubts that the reported ex- periments ever took place. Dr. Rhine has said that Col. William H. Bowers, in charge of psycho- logical research for the U.S. Air Force, denies knowledge of these experiments although Colonel Bow- ers was mentioned in the French article. More to the point, however, is that the alleged Nautilus ESP ex- periments really disclosed nothing that parapsychologists have not known for years. The physical locale of ESP experiments long since has been shown not to affect results, and it is as reasonable to assume that they would work from a sender in the Nautilus as in an airplane or in a laboratory. Nonetheless, the French maga- zine story has had the unusual re- sult of focusing a great deal of at- tention on the problem of ESP and parapsychological research in the Soviet. Union. Two meetings were held on the subject in June, 1960. One of these was on June 15, in the Leningrad Scientists Club. These meetings, and the publication of the Nautilus reports in Science et Vie, also in- spired publication of a review of the situation in the Russian Zna- nive-Sila (Knowledge is Power). This in turn inspired a translation in the American-published Soviet Review. FATE N THE VIEW of the more or- thodox Soviet scientists, ESP (by which they usually mean tele- pathy) cannot exist because it is opposed to official Marxist material- istic dogma. ‘These more conservative men first of all deny that telepathy does exist. Their reasoning is essentially to ignore the evidence and simply to say it cannot exist because there is no communicating mechanism. The more liberal scientists, on the other hand, are prepared to say that there undoubtedly is evidence ‘of telepathy, even though no one has discovered the communicating mechanisms. These men _ believe they are bound to be discovered and that when they are identified they will be materialistic in nature. Thus even the more liberal re- searchers (by “liberal” meaning those who believe in the reality of ESP) must work within the frame- work of Communist dogma. Typical of the skeptical view- point is D. A. Biryukov, a corres- ponding member of the Academy of Medical Sciences. Mr. Biryukov states flatly that telepathy is impossible because it would have to function through broadcast electrical brain waves and there are no scientific findings to confirm that the brain can broad- cast. “Tnvestigation shows that the electromagnetic waves produced by
Page 55
PARAPSYCHOLOGY VS. COMMUNIST DOGMA 55 the action potentials of the brain do not radiate beyond the head,” Mr. Biryukov states in the Soviet Re- view translation. “To study them properly it would be necessary to have a relaying aerial inside the head — an aerial 10s of thousands of miles long. This was roughly how Norbert Wiener, the father of cybernetics, answered a question on telepathy during a visit to the USSR: “Advocates of parapsychology have recourse to unknown methods of transference and invent what has never been discovered .. . “Tt is my deep conviction that the problem of parapsychology cannot, from the viewpoint of method, be posed as a scientific problem. Let me quote a basic Marxist-Leninist philosophical principle concerning the unity and inseparability of the psychic, or mental, and the phy- siological. “<¢Thinking is a property of brain matter and cannot be separated from it.’ In this light we simply cannot raise the question of separa- tion and transfer of thoughts. If we do, we are merely reverting to the vulgar materialism of the past century, which believed the brain secreted thoughts as the liver se- cretes bile. In summary, the only basis for parapsychology is belief in it, or faith.” To this viewpoint, Aldous Hux- ley, the writer-novelist-philosopher, who is greatly interested in the whole area of parapsychology, re- cently retorted: “The Soviet experimenters were forced to conclude —and in the days of Stalin the conclusion was embarrassing —- that telepathy oc- curs and is not a form of radio. “What does one do about data that do not suffer themselves to be explained in terms of currently ac- cepted theory? In all too many cases, as William James pointed out two generations ago, one sticks to one’s theory and does one’s best to ignore the disturbing data. “Fferbert Spencer’s idea of a trag- edy (in T. H. Huxley’s words) was ‘a beautiful generalization murdered by an ugly fact.’ Spencer’s scho- lastic soul goes marching along . . .” The Soviet parapsychologists themselves were prepared for Mr. Biryukov’s dogmatism. Their evi- dence seemed to them incontrovert- ible but they were still left with the difficulty of fitting their findings into the official “line.” Elaborate experiments had been undertaken years before by Profes- sor Leonid Vasilyev, now head of the newly formed department of parapsychology at Leningrad Uni- versity. Briefly, the sender, a hyp- — notist, was placed within a small ‘compartment completely screened with a door that slid along grooves by a system of iron and lead plates containing mercury.
Page 56
56 It was impossible for radio waves to penetrate this device and when the experiments were resumed the results continued as successful as before. “Obviously then; what that hyp- notist was transmitting to the sub- ject was not radio waves,” the So- viet report concluded. These results so dumbfounded the experimenters that they did not publish them for 25 years, when the climate for this sort of thing was more receptive within the Soviet Union. P. I. Gulyayev, a biologist, inter- preted the results: “Were there no connection be- tween the ‘transmitter’ and the ‘re- cipient’ in telepathic experiments, all we would have left is chance coincidence. The incidence of such coincidence is easily determined by the laws of probability. In the case of five different charts selected at random, for instance, the average number. of coincidences would be about 20 per cent of the overall choices. A 70 per cent coincidence rate is impossible for five charts. It could happen, but only once in a billion times. “Yet in the experiments under discussion we do have a 70 per cent coincidence. We may, therefore, safely assume that the sender and recipient have in truth established some special form of communica- tion. Otherwise we would have to FATE conclude that the theory of prob- ability. itself is wrong.” Mr. Gulyayev thus disposes of the first of Mr. Biryukov’s objec- tions by offering proof that tele- pathy does exist. Then he disposes of another by assuming that a “connection” of some sort must exist between sender and receiver. It just hasn’t been identified yet, but when it is it will be “materialistic” and so the Marx- ist-Leninist doctrine is not contra- dicted. But there is still a further diffi- culty and that is Mr. Biryukov’s objection that in Soviet doctrine thoughts cannot ‘be separated from brain matter and so the question of separation and transfer of thoughts cannot even be raised. Mr. Gulyayev answers this objec- tion fairly easily. For one thing he has the obvious precedent that both human and animal brains do communicate by means of speech and symbols. In view of this, other means of communication might just as conceivably exist. He clarifies his position further: “Let me emphasize that thought transference does not mean thoughts travel directly from one brain to another. What the term is taken to mean is the transfer of some kind of information about thoughts, not the thoughts themselves. When we communicate by speech we also convey to each other information
Page 57
PARAPSYCHOLOGY VS. COMMUNIST DOGMA 57 about our thoughts, the carrier in this case being air vibration. “Se far we have no idea what it is that conveys thought informa- . tion in telepathic communication.” Tae ROFESSOR VASILYEV himself suggests that some animals may have “biological radio communica- tion” and that biologically such means ef communication seem to be justified. He also suggests that in man this ability is a rudimentary inheritance from his ancestors — “a sort ef atavistic throwback.” As an example in animals, Vasil- yev cites the experiments of the Soviet entomologist I. A. Fabri, which have already been reported in Fate, Fabri placed an unferti- lized female of a rare kind of night moth under wire netting on the balcony of a country house. With- in a half hour the males began to flock around the female. Within three evenings 64 male specimens of this rare moth were trapped. Some of them were mark- ed with paint and taken from three to five miles away and released. They returned —covering the distance in 40 to 45 minutes despite their slow and clumsy flight. Fabri concluded that the female was sending out some kind of a mating call by some unknown means. The call was not scent, becatise the male sensed it under no wind conditions or down wind or up- wind —it made no difference. Obviously, the signal must be capable of penetrating against the wind. Yet experiments cast doubt that it is an electromagnetic signal. Fabri did discover that the male moth’s receiving organ is its anten- nae. Males with their antennae re- moved did not again answer the female’s call and did not return to her. In his conclusion, Professor Vas- ilyev shrugs his shoulders and echo- es the puzzled words of parapsy- chologists the world over: “So far the question has not been solved and more special study is called One It would be giving a false im- pression to imply that the dogmas associated with “Marxist-Leninist philosophical principles” are at the present time inhibiting work in the Soviet Union more than parallel dogmas held by scientists in the Western world. In the Soviet case, it is true, the dogmas are politically reinforced, although not so much today as in the days of Stalin. But it is a ques- tion whether, as some scientists use them, they are much more than a conservative rationalization for a materialistic approach. In the West, on the other hand, there are also many scientists who object to parapsychology and the whole range of psi phenomena and

They FATE are merely using a different semant- ic framework to arrive at rational- izations which are, after all, very similar, ; 7 DID HYPNOSIS REVEAL A CANCER CURE? URING a hypnotic trance in 1868 a well-educated Frenchwoman described a plant which she believed would cure ‘eancer. Her remarks were care- fully recorded, not because of interest in her alleged cure, but because of the apparent ac- curacy of her statements con- cerning her own organic dis- ease, one so agonizing that hyp- nosis was used for relief. Although the patient’s diag- nosis of her own ailment was at variance with that of her surgeon, the famous Dr. Koe- berle of Strasbourg, the sur- geon’s knife ultimately proved her correct in every detail. The complete report of this unusual case was published in Camille Flammarion’s book LD’ inconnu. An American student of psychic matters, G. K. Kahn, while reading the Flammarion book in French, translated the remarks about a cure for can- eer for FATE Magazine. Here is the description of a plant which the hypnotized woman said would cure cancer: “It is a herbaceous plant, which forms a bouquet of spat- ulated leaves, rather large and very tender, of a green color, not too light and not too dark. It is most analogous to a sor- rel. The leaves are quite united and without prickles. They con- tain a greenish juice which is still more abundant in the large stalk, The stalk is finger- shaped and rises at the moment of blossoming in the middle of the leaves. “The flowers, hardly visible before expansion, become greenish when they are expand- ing and are located at the end and along the stalk. The stalk has no leaves. “The plant grows on the sides of a mountain, probably in Switzerland. It pushes into the zone just where the snow starts. It grows in a reddish soil that is dry and friable and where vegetation is rare. “The plant blooms once a year, in June. The stalk re- mains until winter and then dries up. The very small flow- ers become small black grains, which drop onto the ground. The root subsists and in the spring the leaves come up. “The plant is probably of the family of Polygonnes, dicotyledone, perhaps from the family of ranunculus. The Aconit grows in the same places. The flower resembles very much the Lapathum.” Flammarion does not state that this curative plant was ever sought, or tested.

“You Shall Die Slowly ... and alone!” ... thus the old squaw cursed the crafty brave who caused her granddaughier’s death—and die he did. OU ARE A BAD, bad Indian! You make up to my granddaughter, Marie, because she is the prettiest girl of our tribe. But you do not seek marriage. No! You mean bad things!” The voice of Mitsue, aged squaw of the Spalumcheen Indian tribe of Northern British Columbia, Canada, shrilled stridently as she admon- ished the young Indian brave, “Marie is a good girl; I protect her. If you harm her I shall wish 59 Bb, CM Tcl you such a slow and painful death as would make you tremble to think about. Be warned!” “Bah! You talk empty words,” sneered Pierre Williams, the 26- year-old Indian. “I am not afraid of an old woman’s threats!” But there was a flicker of uneasiness in his eyes. “You are afraid!” Mitsue shrill- ed, pointing her bony finger. “All our tribe know of my power and that I do not use it unless I must.
Page 60
60 But if you harm Marie —” Leav- ing the warning unfinished she turned and hobbled back into her tepee. It was quite true that the hand- some Pierre had discovered he could exert a kind of hypnotic influence over Marie, a strikingly attractive girl ef 17. Marie was greatly flat- tered by Pierre’s attentions, indeed his flashing eyes, even white teeth and lithe body had set more than one Indian maiden’s heart flutter- ing. Pierre undoubtedly could have won Marie openly and honorably had he so desired but, as Mitsue knew, marriage to Marie was not his objective. He merely wanted to ~possess her. He was a bad Indian and his wickedness was to lead to one of the strangest, most puzzling murder mysteries the British Columbia Pro- vincial Police ever have been called upon to solve. * Ok x Soe TWO WEEKS after the clash . between Mitsue and Pierre the Department of Indian Affairs staged one of the Indian tribal gatherings and celebrations ,which they ar- range from time to time in order to allow the tribes of the various re- serves to let off steam — under supervision. This gathering was held at Kam- loops, British Columbia. From all parts of the province natives came FATE to watch and participate in the horse racing, foot racing and other athletic events, in the dancing and, above all, the feasting — all at the government’s expense. There was also a certain amount of quarrelling and fighting at these festivals, due chiefly to liquor consumed in de- fiance of the law. Before leaving the Spalumcheen Reserve for Kamloops, Marie again had been solemnly warned against Pierre by Mitsue. Marie’s reaction had been to laugh merrily and to deride her grandmother’s warning as “an old squaw’s foolishness”. By now Marie had learned that men found her desirable. Dressed in her best for the celebration at Kamloops, she found herself at- tracting the attention not only of young Indian men but also of a white man named William Gillis. Gillis was a drifter, a type common in Western Canada, who never worked or stayed long any place. However, flattered by the at- tention of a white man, Marie spurned the young men of her own race and flirted openly with Gillis, thus arousing the furious jealousy of Pierre who warned her that he would kill any man upon whom she bestowed her favors, especially a white man. A high-spirited girl, Marie scorn- ed this threat, telling Pierre she would do as she wished. Then, as if deliberately taunting Pierre, she

“VOU SHALL DIE SLOWLY ... AND ALONE!” 61 tnade her way. back through the crowds to Gillis’ side and slipped one hand through his arm. In sullen, silent fury Pierre watched. - At dawn the next day a furious pounding awakened Robert Dodd, _ Indian Agent stationed at Kam- loops. Hastily pulling on a few clothes, Dodd hurried down the stairs and unfastened the door. On the veranda stood Marie. Her face was tear-stained; her hands were red and her dress saturated with blood. The moment Dodd appeared she clutched him frenziedly and began to gasp out a breathlessly incoher- ent story. Gently Dodd led the hysterical girl through to the kit- chen, sat her down upon a chair and endeavored to calm her. Pres- ently Marie was sufficiently com- posed to speak intelligibly. She told Dodd that, greatly flat- tered by the attentions of a white man, she had agreed to spend the night with Gillis at his camp on the bank of the South Thompson River. During the night someone had crept into the camp and battered Gillis to death. Dodd listened in shocked silence. Then he took Marie a few doors away to the house of Constable Walter Smith of the British Col- umbia Provincial Police. Here Marie again sobbed out her terrible story. Later, at Constable Smith’s suggestion, she Jed him and Dodd to Gillis’ camp. There, upon a pile of blankets, lay Gillis’ bloody re- mains. His skull had been shatter- ed by repeated blows from some heavy weapon. Smith knew Gillis carried a heavy, long-barreled, ivory-handled revolver because only a few days before Gillis had applied for a re- newal of his permit to carry the weapon. Now a search of the camp site failed to produce the gun. “Where is Gillis’ gun?” Smith asked Marie sharply. “He had no gun,” Marie replied. “Marie,” Smith asked sternly, “why do you lie? You know Gillis wore a gun when you were with him yesterday. If you know where it is, fetch it at once, otherwise I shall lock you up.” For a moment Marie hesitated, then she turned and disappeared into the thick undergrowth sur- rounding the camp. Presently she reappeared carrying the revolver. The ivory butt of the weapon was covered with human hair and half- dried blood and, before Smith or Dodd could stop her, Marie dropped to her knees beside the bedding and started to clean the weapon with an end of blanket, thus completely obliterating all- fingerprints. Whether Marie’s action was de- liberate or whether it was an in- nocent desire to clean the firearm before handing it to Smith, was im-
Page 62
62 possible to know. Nevertheless, Smith scolded her sharply as he snatched the gun from her hand. The weapon was not loaded and Smith could find no cartridges either on Gillis’ person or among his scanty belongings. He conclud- ed that the absence of ammunition had forced the murderer to use the weapon as a club. Constable Smith was far from satisfied with Marie’s story. How, he asked, could anyone have crept up on Gillis and killed him in his sleep without waking Marie? Either Marie had been roused and, per- haps threatened by the killer, had stood to one side while he com- mitted his brutal crime, or else Marie herself had battered Gillis to death. Smith’s command to Marie to find the gun had been sheer bluff. He had been genuinely surprised when Marie had located the weapon so quickly and he reasoned either she had hidden it or she had watched the murderer hide it. Like all Indian women Marie was used to chopping wood and drawing water. She was lithe and strong enough to batter a man to death with a weapon as heavy as Gillis’ revolver. Constable Smith questioned Marie closely, but tearfully she insisted she had seen no one. She had been sound asleep until Gillis’ moans waked her. She had clasped his FATE head to her breast:until his moan- ing stopped and she realized he had died in her arms. Then, utterly terrified, she had run to inform Indian Agent Dodd. She protested that she had not known where the revolver was but simply had hunted around until she had found it. She denied she had attacked Gillis herself. Constable Smith did not accept her story. He placed her under arrest. Marie had been in the Kam- loops jail for almost a week when she sent word that she wished to talk to Constable Smith. Smith, who had been working hard on the case without making any further progress, hastened to her cell. “Well, Marie,” he asked, “why do you wish to see me?” “T want to tell you who killed Gillis,” Marie replied. “That’s sensible,” Smith said en- couragingly. “Why didn’t you tell me at first?” “Because I am afraid,” Marie answered. “He say if I tell police he kill me. But you won’t let him hurt me, will you?” “Of course not,” Constable Smith reassured her, “Pierre Williams,” Marie said shakily, “is a bad Indian. He all the time make up to me. When I go with Gillis, Pierre get mad and say he kill white man. That night he come to our camp and beat Gillis
Page 63
“YOU SHALL DIE SLOWLY ... AND ALONE!” 63 dead.” She stared anxiously up into Smith’s face, ending: “Now you let me go, eh?” “No,” Smith snapped angrily. “You’ve now made things much worse for yourself, Marie, by tell- ing me a deliberate lie.” “No, no!” Marie insisted. “TI tell you the truth. Pierre Williams killed Gillis!” “You're lying,” Smith repeated. “But I tell you —” “And I have positive proof that you’re lying,” Constable Smith in- terrupted. “On the night Gillis was killed Pierre Williams was here; locked up in a cell in this very gaol.” _ “Pierre — was — here?” recoiled. “Yes,” Smith nodded. “I know Pierre liked to make up to you. I saw him talking to you on the day of the murder. I saw how mad he was and kept an eye on him. Later, because he started drinking and quarrelling with others, I thought it advisable to lock him up until morning. I freed him a few min- utes after I brought you here. Now what have you to say?” “T still say Pierre Williams killed my friend Gillis,” Marie insisted. “And I know that you lie,” Smith told her. And he formally charged Marie with murder. At the Fall Assizes Marie was the center of attraction. Her pretti- Marie ness and youth won the sympathy of many in the crowded courtroom. She did not seem to realize the gravity of her position and smiled at everybody. The Crown Prosecutor was Ar- thur H. Eberts, a man a more dis- cerning prisoner would have dread- ed to see arrayed on the side of the prosecution. The lawyer assigned to defend Marie was William W. Spinks, a young man recently ad- mitted to the Bar. In his usual polished style, Pro- secutor Eberts built up a damning case against Marie. On the other hand William W. Spinks could not call one witness for the defense. Matters looked very bad for Marie as, in closing the case for the pro- secution, Arthur H. Eberts told the jury: “You many find the accused guilty of either murder or man- slaughter; but before you retire I want you to examine closely the dress the accused was wearing on the night of the murder.” As Prosecutor Eberts passed slowly along the witness box dis- playing the blood-stained garment, Defense Counsel Spinks stepped forward and carefully studied the dress. He saw something there that had escaped the notice of the others and, as Prosecutor Eberts sat down, Spinks turned and addressed the jury. “Gentlemen,” he declaimed in confident tones, “my learned friend
Page 64
~~ 64 told you that you can find the accused guilty of either manslaught- er or murder. I say that, in the face of the evidence submitted, you cannot do that. You must find the accused either guilty of murder or you must exonerate her completely. And here is why I say that.” Hold- ing up the blood-stained dress he went on: “The prosecution argues that the accused got up during the night while her companion, Gillis, was asleep, picked up his revolver, stood or knelt ever him, and hit him upon the head again and again with the heavy weapon. This dress proves that contention to be wrong be- cause, in that case, the accused’s dress would have been merely spaé- tered with blood. Actually, gentle- men, as you can see for yourself, this dress is saturated with blood, bearing out the accused’s story that when she heard the murdered man moaning, she lifted his battered head to her breast and thus held him until he died. “The whole theory of the pro- secution is preposterous. You are all strong, iron-nerved outdoorsmen, but would any one of you have the nerve to brutally batter a man to death and then lie down beside him, hold his head, and allow his blood to saturate your clothing? Yet, that is exactly what the prosecution alleges the sweet-faced young girl in the prisoner’s box did. Gentle- FATE men, I leave the decision to you.” Mr. Spinks sat down in an at- mosphere of tense silence. Without leaving the courtroom the 12 men of the jury whispered among themselves. Then the fore- man got to his feet and announced the verdict: “Not guilty!” Marie was escorted back to the Spalumcheen Reserve and_ there freed. She at once sought out Pierre Williams. “You are a bad Indian,” she told him. “You killed my friend Gillis!” Pierre sneered, “Everybody knows Constable Smith had me locked up ‘that night. Maybe I wanted to be locked up,” he added, craftily. “Just the same, you killed Gillis,” Marie insisted. “I do not know how you make me do things but you do and my grandmother knows. You came to me that night and said: ‘Take Gillis’ gun and hit him on the head many times.’ I did that and then you were gone and I felt very sorry for Gillis. I held his head and tried to make him well, but it was no use.” Pierre stalked away. Marie became a changed girl. She was always looking fearfully over her shoulders, apparently never free of the dread spectre of the slain Gillis. Because of her as- sociation with the white man, the young Indian braves now shunned her. Marie turned to Pierre for companionship, often pleading with
Page 65
4 ne ta ape eee Ae (in arey ans eae Sa “YOU SHALL DIE SLOWLY ...AND ALONE!” 65 him to marry her so that she would no longer be alone at night when, she declared, Gillis’ ghost haunted her. But marriage to Marie was the very last thing Pierre desired. He was no longer interested in the pathetic little creature who, once the prettiest girl in the tribe, was now thin, distraught and haggard. To be rid of her once and for all Pierre apparently concocted a scheme which must again have in- volved. the use of the strange hyp- notic power he undoubtedly pos- sessed. One night when the moon was full Pierre was seen to creep into Marie’s isolated tepee. There he stayed. for some time before he was seen to leave again. Marie never again was seen alive. Her broken body was found the next day at the foot of Hainen Cliff, on September 14, 1936. It was then that the aged Mitsue, supported by a crowd of incensed Indians, hobbled furiously- toward Pierre’s tepee. “Murderer!” Mitsue screamed as Pierre appeared. “You killed Gillis and now kill Marie.” “T was locked up in gaol the night Gillis was killed,” Pierre pro- tested. “Last night I did not leave our encampment. Marie must have walked over the cliff in her sleep.” “No. You made her kill herself,” Mitsue shrilled. “I know your power because I have the same power and now I shall use it as I warned you.” “No. No!” Pierre protested. “I tell you —” “White man’s justice cannot pun- ish you,” Mitsue interrupted, “but Indian justice can. Because you are a bad Indian you shall die slow- ly —and alone—and with much pain. It is said!” With that Mitsue turned and hobbled away, leaving behind a Pierre whose eyes were filled with. dread. eee ONTHS PASSED and life went on as usual on the Spalumcheen Reserve. Pierre grew less and less afraid and began boasting that Mit- sue had lost her strange power and that her threat was nothing but “an old squaw’s foolishness”. He became his old, arrogant self again. In November, when the first snows came, he announced his in- tention of leaving the Reserve for the winter to go trapping. He never returned. The following June 16, 1937, when hunting in the vicinity of Monashee Mountain, a party of Indians came across a rusted bear trap that had been sprung, a hu- man skull, some scattered human bones, some fragments of buckskin clothing and moccasins, and a weather-beaten rifle. Gripped firm- ly by the cruel teeth of the bear
Page 66
66 trap was a piece of gnawed bone, later identified as a portion of a man’s shin bone. All about the site were empty cartridge cases. The rifle was carefully cleaned and positively identified as having belonged to Pierre Williams. It was not hard for the police to decide what had happened. While travelling over his trap line Pierre had inadvertently step- ped into one of his own bear traps. At once the powerful steel jaws had clamped shut, holding him in a vice- like grip. To open a bear trap a man néeds both legs free so that he can tramp down ‘with a foot on the two springs on either side of the jaws simultaneously. It requires a man’s full weight. Unable to free himself, Pierre had fired every cart- ridge he possessed, in a frenzied hope of attracting some trapper or hunter to his aid, or to drive back the wild animals who must have FATE come to watch his death struggle. No one heard his frantic cries or signal shots. He must have lain in agonized helplessness for a week or more, as night followed day and day followed night and no help came. From the fringe of the trees the ever-ravening wolves must have watched his frenzied struggle close- ly. And when Pierre could neither shoot nor struggle further the wolves must have rushed in to the feast. As Mitsue had forewarned, Pierre had died slowly, alone, with much pain. The Indians believe that Mitsue had evoked her strange power to avenge the murder of Marie. ~ To the authorities, of course, Pierre Williams’ death was merely an accident. Curse or coincidence, it was a fitting end for an unscrupulous killer. REUNITED TWINS I‘ ENGLAND twin sisters who had been separated for 27 years were reunited as a result of the fact that both were running pubs—the English term for bar rooms—and had the same man for a customer. While on vacation, John Weaver noticed that Mrs. Louise Lockwood, who ran the Flower Pot Inn at Duxford, was a double of Mrs. Lisa Hopkins, who ran a village inn called the Fenn Bell at St. Mary’s Hoo, Kent, 80 miles south on the other side of London. When Weaver commented on the similarity, Mrs. Lock- wood phoned Mrs. Hopkins and they had a reunion in London.

AREFULLY GUARDED in the rare book collection of a foreign library there is one surviving copy of an elegant volume called Experi- ences in Spiritualism with Mr. D. D. Home. A friend of Fate photographed every page of this rare book and recently brought. the films to the United States. They have been developed and now on photographic prints Fate has the first copy of this valuable beyond-price docu- ment ever seen outside a small circle of European authorities. Experiences in Spiritualism is the printed account of 78 seances con- ducted in Europe by Daniel Home between November, 1867, and July, 68 Tables moved without visible agency and gave rappings that spelled out messages in an amazing but typical... PB, Paul Foght 1869. The accounts were first writ- ten as letters from the Viscount Adare to his father. Lord Adare was an eyewitness to all 78 seances and was able to give a very accurate picture of Home since he and Home lived and traveled together through- out most of this nearly two-year period. An introduction to the book by the Earl of Dunraven explains that he was the one responsible for put-. ting the letters into print, but that at the same time he strictly limited the circulation of the printed vol- ume. The Earl wrote that he saw from Lord Adare’s letters that, “.. . the manifestations were so re-
Page 69
markable that they deserved to be duly chronicled and preserved. ~ General publication is out of the question as much that is interest- ing and a valuable portion of the record relates to private domestic affairs and to near relatives or in- timate friends. Even after the un- avoidable suppression of some curi- ous and instructive details, it was not without reluctance that we made up our minds to give even very limited circulation to this series of seances.” The authors appear to have made every effort to make the book as accurate a report as possible within the requirements of their private censorship code. The Earl stated that in many cases he and Lord Adare wrote independent reports first, then compared their notes. He also stated that some reports, “.. . were looked over by more than one of the persons present: thus everything has been done to insure the greatest accuracy. In addition, each of those mentioned as present at the seances has re- ceived a copy of the printed ac- count, and replies have been re- ceived from all.” The printed book lists a total of 50 witnesses, and two additional names have been added by hand to the Fate copy of the book. Presumably all of these wit- ABOUT DANIEL DUNGLAS HOME Daniel Dunglas Home was one of the most amazing men of all time. His career is absolutely without parallel as a medium, master psychic, wizard and maker of magic. During his life he was a celebrated figure and the sensation of two continents, Two of the foremost scientists of his period, Sir William Crookes and Dr. Robert Hare, declared phenomena produced by him to be genuine and asserted his abilities to include authentic demonstrations of a new and unknown force. Crookes, inventor of the x-ray tube, investigated Home’s ability to levitate himself and prepared a paper in which he testified that, “On three occasions I. myself have seen Mr. Home raised completely from the floor of the room.” The Royal Society of Scientists refused to hear Crookes’ never retracted one word of his testimony. Twenty years later, been elected president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, he wrote, “ report, but he after he had . . . | find nothing to retract or to alter. | have discovered no flaw in the experiments then made, or in the reasoning | based on them.” Home was born near Edinburgh, Scotland, March 20, 1833, but spent the early part of his life in the United States. Later he traveled in Europe and mar- tied Sacha de Kroll, daughter of the Russian general, Count de Kroll. Home died of tuberculosis in France on June 21, 1886. Pau! M. Vest, Ph.D., writing in Fate, April, 1952, said of Home, “He was one man who undoubtedly could have given scientific authenticity to psychic phenomena and to the reality of spiritual worlds.” But science wouldn’t listen.

7O nesses testify to the accuracy of the printed reports. Why did these learned and titled Englishmen spend their time and money investigating such a contro- versial man as Home, and in print- ing a few copies of a book which they did not want read beyond their own circle? The Earl of Dunraven wrote, “The answer is simple: Chiefly, to examine for my own satisfaction; next, to enable others, who may consider a similar spirit of enquiry, to have the benefit of the experience from the following seances.” For the first time Fate now makes the experience available to a public with an enquiring spirit. The Adare-Dunraven book pre- sented complete reports of 78 seances and it is obviously impos- sible to reprint those 78 accounts in full on these pages. However, Lord Adare’s full report of Seance No. 3, which follows immediately, is typical of the series and the tech- niques of the inquiry demonstrated here. Seance No. 3 was not the most sensational performance, the outstanding phenomena of the com- plete series will be described in a later article, but few living persons have ever witnessed such phenom- ena as Lord Adare saw on this November afternoon in 1867, eer ek 0. 3 Seance. I again went down to Mr. Jencken’s to see FATE Home. After tea we had a seance. There were present: Mr. Jencken, Mrs. Jencken, Mrs. Hennings, Mrs. Scott Russell, Miss D R ; Home, and myself. We sat around the card table, all except Mrs. Jencken, who sat in her arm chair in another part of the room. “The manifestations began by the usual vibration of the table, the floor, and our chairs; and by the cold currents. of air passing round the table over our hands. The table moved, and we followed it until it was in a corner close to the wall. “Home had his back to the wall. On his left, at a little distance, was a small square table, with a vase of flowers on it; and on his right was a small round table, on which stood a large vase containing a fern. “The chief part of the manifesta- tions consisted in the movement of these tables. They were brought close to Home, and then were some- times raised in the air and inclined towards him; sometimes simply tilted on one leg, so that the flowers touched his face. The flowers were in like manner also, as it were, pre- sented to Mrs. Hennings and Mrs. Scott Russell. “Our table moved a little back, and we then saw the window cur- tains drawn on one side out of the way. This table was repeatedly raised in the air to the height of four or five inches, Miss D——

SEANCE WITH D. D. HOME R placing her hands between it and the floor; and it was also fre- quently inclined at such an angle that the vase must inevitably have fallen off under ordinary circum- stances. On placing the ear against the small table, it was found to be full of minute raps, like a current of small electric sparks. “The phenomena connected with the movement of these two tables occupied some time, during which we talked about various matters and subjects. Miss D R. and Mr. Jencken were talking about spiritualism, and he got rather ex- cited. “T noticed a remarkable circum- stance in connection with the small round table. When it was inclined at a considerable angle I saw the vase move, but instead of slipping down the slope, it moved up against it. “As I before mentioned, the small table with the fern was raised in the air, and presented as if in greet- ing to Mrs. Hennings, Home, and Mrs. Scott Russell. After this had been done several times the alpha- bet was called for (i.e., Home called for the spirits to spell out words by rappings, each letter of the alpha- bet being assigned a specific number of raps. — Editor) and the follow- ing message given: ‘We would do more to show our love; these (re- ferring to the flowers) are emblems of God’s love.’ The letters were in- 71 dicated sometimes by the small table tilting, sometimes by raps on the large table. “Soon afterwards the alphabet was again called for, and the fol- lowing message given: ‘Sit alone in a corner with Adare.’ “Accordingly Home and I left the table, and sat in another corner of the room at the small round table, having previously removed the vase. Immediately the table was raised up and tilted against my chest. “The table had ‘one leg terminat- ing in three claws, one of them just touched my toe, and the letters were indicated by the claw tapping my toe. The following message was thus given: ‘My own boy, I go with you, fear nothing, God will give a mother power to protect her own boy. I will yet speak to you when alone.’ “Home was not touching the table; but during all this time was sitting beside me in an arm chair, and I distinctly felt and so did he—some one standing between us. “We then went back to the large table and Home took the accordion in his hand. He asked some ques- tions, which were answered in the affirmative by three single netes on the accordion. Home, in asking these questions, became very much affected —I do not know why — and his voice was quite broken.
Page 72
72 “The accordion then played some- thing like a voluntary on the organ. The peculiarity being that the last few notes were drawn out so fine as to be scarcely audible — the last note dying away so gradually that I could not tell when it ceased. I do not think it possible for any human hand to produce a note in that way. “Sometime before this we had all heard a whistling over Home’s head. It is a curious sound, some- thing between a bird chirping and the whistling produced by bird’s wings rapidly moving. “During the time the sounds were heard Home was talking, which I was glad of, as I wished to feel sure the sounds were not the result of ventriloquism on his part. I be- lieve I may also safely say that we all engaged in conversation at the time, so that the sounds could not have been produced by any ac- complice among us. “All the manifestations then ceased. We waited, and Home ask- ed if the spirits were gone. No answer was returned, so we left the table. “T have particularly noticed three things. “Ist. That the commencement of each seance appears the same, namely, currents of cold air pass- ing over the hands of those at the table as if some sort of chain was being formed. Any abrupt breaking FATE of which by someone suddenly leaving the table will stop the phe- nomena. “Ind. That if the attention be too much concentrated it prevents the phenomena. They take place best when those at the table are keeping up a general conversation. If anything occurs, such as a table moving, and everybody stops talk- ing and looks at it, it is almost sure to stop. “3rd. That the name of God is always treated with peculiar rever- ence. In spelling out a sentence, if you guess an ordinary word, they say ‘Yes,’ and go on to the next. But though you may guess it, they spell out each letter in the name of God, and instead of indicating the letters quickly, as usual, it is done in a slow manner that impresses the mind with an idea of great reverence.” +o ke |= compLetes Lord Adare’s report of the third seance with D. D. Home. The levitation of the tables and the transmissions of mes- sages by rappings are two of the phenomena for which Home was most renowned and which were in- vestigated most carefully during his lifetime. In a future issue of Fate you will read the eyewitness accounts of Home’s levitation of his own body, fire handling, and flying in and out of a- building through third-story windows.

- HOUSE with the EARTHBOUND SPIRITS — Tt was a ie and ey : house—but strangely lacking” in privacy. Guests were spied =on nightly through glass tran- soms by unseen “presences. By Led M S. Lawford : Lady Lawford is the mother of popu- lar movie actor Peter Lawford, who is the brother-in-law of President Kennedy. M* SON, Peter, was about eight years old when our little family returned from a voy- age to Tahiti, Australia, and the Hawaiian Islands. Arriving in London, we were met by the usual downpour and leaden skies; it was anything but warm, although it was August. Among my mail I received a letter from a friend who wished to rent us his house on the island of Madeira for the coming winter. Even though we were half unpacked we all de- cided to take the house. My hus- band, Gen. Sir Sidney Lawford, 73 booked our passages on the next outgoing steamer. We were enchanted. with the house. The garden and grounds were full of Lilies-of-the-Nile, plus Bougainvillaea in all shades of glorious color. In addition, the butler, cook and two upstairs maids went with the home. We settled -happily into our new environment, prepared te enjoy tennis, drives, bathing and other recreation available on the delight- ful island. The house was too large for us — four or five bedrooms and bathrooms, a drawing room, dining
Page 74
74 room, and one huge room which the servants called The Ballroom. My husband and I slept in a large room with three windows overlooking the sea; it also had three doors with glass transoms opening onto the corrider. Peter slept in a smaller room just off ours, with no door and separated only by an archway with curtains. After we had lived here two or three months we were invited to a big Portuguese wedding and did not return to the house until about 1:00 o’clock. As our son was al- ready asleep, we went quietly to. bed. At 4:00 o’clock I awoke with a start, Peter stood by the side of my bed and his white, China-silk pajamas were sticking to his body as if he had gone swimming in them. “What on earth?” I gasped. “T can’t sleep in my room. Some- one keeps looking at me. Let me stay here — please!” Peter pleaded. After rubbing him dry and chang- ing his pajamas I put him to sleep on one of the couches in our bed- room, When General Lawford woke in the morning and saw him there, he said, “A fine way to spoil the child!” and indicated he did not believe Peter’s story. Every night our son went to bed in his room, and every morning we found him covered by one of his blankets on the couch in our room. FATE After a week or 10 days of this I, too, began to wake up with the feeling that someone was watching me. My chiffon nightgown would be clinging to my body and my pillow wet with perspiration. I awakened my husband who murmured, “Mass hysteria” and went back to sleep. However, about a week later, around midnight, ke woke me and said someone or something was looking at him from the transoms. Next day my husband told the butler to glue some brown paper on the inside of the three transoms and that night he removed the keys after locking the bedroom doors. The following morning I awoke, grateful for an undisturbed night, only to look at the floor and find it covered with pieces of brown paper —paper torn from the inside of the transom by unseen hands. After some discussion my hus- band and I decided to take the next ship to Lisbon. The friends we had made on the island then gave us a nice farewell party. At. the.party an elderly gentle- man said to me, “I wondered how long you would stay there. Six months is about the limit!” When I asked him why, he promptly answered, “That house is _full of earthbound spirits — two murders and a suicide in the big bedroom! !”

I was “on the spot!” Wwe YOU LIKE to go fire- walking with me? If you have Faith, you can. If you have Faith, you can perform miracles, because Faith lends man the mighty power to perform paranormal feats. Note that I’ve spelled the word with an upper-case “F.” Faith is never to be confused with mere credulity. No matter how strongly I may believe that rabbits have horns at night, the facts remain to the contrary. Many mistake mere believing with Faith because on the 75 lower levels of accomplishment it is often possible to obtain identical results from either of the two, but with this vastly important differ- ence: the results of Faith can be and usually are of a lasting nature, whereas results obtained from mere blind believing tend to fade out and, worse yet, be replaced by a condition that is the exact opposite of the one originally desired and momentarily obtained. Let us test Faith on a searing bed of fire.
Page 76
76 In 1955 I went to a small rice- growing community some 32 kilo- meters, approximately 19.86 miles, outside Bangkok to attend their an- nual fire-walking festival. I chose this isolated village because I wanted to get entirely away from anything remotely resembling a tourist at- traction. I was the only Caucasian present and my priestly robes acted as “Open Sesame” for me. Some 2000 peasants ranging in age from toddlers to octogenarians were pres- ent. In unison they recited various paritta (devotional utterances or “prayers”), the while the charcoal pit of some 30 by 15 feet was being fanned to maximum heat. Not a piece of unignited charcoal was left atop the burning coals. The entire surface was not only ignited but quite obviously red-hot. At the moment the pit was judged to be at maximum heat the village headman strode in an unhurried manner the length of the pit. He moved his bare feet as unconcerned- ly as if he were strolling on the cool, Wave-washed sands of a _ beach. When the elder had traversed the pit he was followed by the adults, all of them. When the last adult had made the crossing, then a fairly large number of school-age children scampered into the pit, kicking about quite unconcernedly as Amer- ican youngsters might kick about in a snowbank. By this time the tem- perature of the pit had dropped a FATE few degrees, but it was still hot enough to have broiled steak. The village elder called the child- ren out of the pit and looked at me quizzically. I was the only adult member of the great throng who had not so much as touched a toe to the coals. My knowledge of the Siamese language was in the ele- mentary stages at that time, but no language knowledge was needed to understand the question in his eyes. To revert to Americanese: I was “on the spot.” I had been told long before this that if one felt deficient in faith, it would suffice to hold the hand of someone who had faith. The old man held out his toil stained hand. Something well nigh indescribable happened within me. For a moment more I hesitated. The thought ran through my mind that if I was such a rank materialist as to be afraid to do what 2000 men, women, and children had just done, then I was a hollow sham of a priest, a shame- less hypocrite and ought to be un- frocked and returned to the U.S.A. to become a bookie or some similar adornment to human society. I swallowed my Adam’s apple and then put my hand trustingly into the old man’s. I kicked off my sandals-and we moved into the fire. With my free hand I started to lift the skirts of my robes higher. They had been a scant three inches abeve the embers. The old man saw the

We moved at the pace of an ordinary, casual walk and the soles of my feet felt no warmer than they would have felt in contact with sun- warmed concrete in late afternoon. It was obvious to me that I was on what was for me a new plane of consciousness. I had no fear and, oddly enough, no sense of being in a novel situation. All the short while (possibly not more than 70 seconds) that we were on the fire I had complete faith that all was well. I wanted to let go my com- panion’s hand, but he held on. Just as we reached the end of the pit I suddenly reverted to member- ship in the White Race. Faith de- serted me, or to be more strictly correct I deserted faith! As we stepped out on the grass, inadver- tently I kicked a fiery ember a few inches into the air. At that exact moment the old man let go of my hand and a fraction of a second later the hot ember fell back on my
Page 78
=) nd 78 right instep, inflicting a painful burn during the brief moment it was in contact with my flesh. My feet have long been tobacco brown in color as a result of long exposure in sandals to the tropical sun, but the scar of that burn still shows. At this point I ask the readers to keep in mind that the people I have just described were simple, largely uneducated, plain-living, clean- minded village folk, whose minds were not perverted by one of the major modern deities — scientific education. Herein we have a clue to why the European tends to view all such paranormal feats as “super- natural” fakeries, whereas the sim- ple, uneducated jungle folk look upon these activities as altogether natural. Even the children know they can walk on fire unharmed. Merely “believing in” does not enter the picture. Real Faith is knowledge — perhaps a kind of super-knowledge, but certainly knowledge. This question well may be asked by Occidental readers: “What pur- pose is served by these perform- ances?” The answer, from the Asian point of view, is that man needs to be re- minded frequently, that he is more than the sum of his parts; that within him lie powers which can be turned to good account and, as the centuries roll, to better and better account. FATE ee AN ASPECT of paranormal activity more likely to be of in- terest to Western readers let us take a fairly typical case or two of using “non scientific’ means to nullify unbearable pain. The first case is that of an aged woman in the final months of can- cer. Opiates did not provide relief from her intense pain. Her eldest son asked several Buddhist monks to go to her bedside and chant ap- propriate mantras (devotions or mystical formulas couched in sonic dynamic form and usually uttered in Sanskrit) for her relief from pain and for her spiritual well-being. When we arrived we found the patient in considerable pain and the senior monk present immediately recited a “pain-killer mantra” which he followed by anointing the pa- tient’s forehead with consecrated oil and sprinkling her lightly with lustral water. Then we all laid our hands on either her head or arms and slowly chanted another mantra. The patient joined us. The whole vocal part was an exercise in sound- power alone and devoid of trans- latable meaning. When we left the house some 30 or 40 minutes later, the patient felt better and asked for food. The last thing the senior monk did was to give the old lady a Bud- dhist rosary of 108 beads and to teach her a simple little invocation of four words to say in her native
Page 79
I WALKED ON THE FIERY COALS 79 Cantonese. She was asked to fix her mind on the invocation as she repeated it in full for each of the beads. Then she was to pause for a few minutes and go round the 108 beads again, keeping this up con- tinuously during her waking hours. Five. days later the son came to see me. He said that on the third day of reciting the brief invocation con- stantly, his mother’s pains abruptly ceased. Eleven weeks later I was asked to officiate at her funeral. Her family told me she had been completely free from pain through- out the 11 weeks preceding her death. If this were an isolated instance I probably could convince myself that the cessation of pain was only a coincidence — something that had happened by chance. But, after years of observing strange and won- derful results from the use of sound- power mantras, I find myself un- able to formulate any normal ex- planation and thus am forced to classify such experiences as being paranormal in their nature. Another instance was far more dramatic. A Siamese youth of about 22 years of age was dying of tuber- culosis in Penang. He was lonely and homesick for Siam and the sound of his native language. My own command of Siamese is not of the best but I make do with it and on my fairly frequent visits to the dying boy we understood each other quite well. Finally I had to do al- most all the talking as he was too weak to speak more than a few words and was constantly hemor- rhaging. Medical opinion was that his death was but a day or two away. He sensed that the doctors felt his case was hopeless and asked me to tell him how to die peacefully. Suddenly I found myself feeling angry, resentful and rebellious. I rebelled against the idea of an in- telligent youth of good character being taken from life almost before he had a chance to look on it with some glimmer of understanding its meaning. On an impulse I told him he need not die if he would have Faith in the healing power of Divine Mind. At that very moment he hemor- rhaged a bit and, after the blood was cleaned away, he managed to whisper faintly that he had Faith that such things could be done. I told him this was not enough. He must have Faith that it would be done. The boy looked at me ques- tioningly. He seemed to be silently asking if I believed what I was ask- ing him to believe. Regardless of what my exact feel- ings may have been a scant 10 or 15 minutes prior to this moment, I told him in all sincerity that I had complete trust that he could and would be healed by Faith. I asked him to stop thinking in terms of
Page 80
80 death and to look ahead to a long and happy life in excellent health. Three months later the “dying” boy walked into my study and showed me his latest chest X-ray. Only a tiny spot was left on one lung and it was progressively getting smaller. A month from that day he had no spot at all and went back to his job. He is still hale and hearty and, incidentally, full of Faith. phates VEN THOUGH I witnessed this drama with my own eyes, I still find myself a bit dazed by the quickness with which the power of Faith made this boy whole and healthy. I am not aware that any- one is able to give a complete (or even a partial) explanation of just exactly how Faith works its mir- acles. Sufficient for me to know that it does work. If my readers “twist my arm” and insist that I offer some expla- nation of the manner in which Faith can heal even “hopeless” cases, I shall state it this. way: An indi- vidual who has no conscious aware- ness of an All-Enveloping Power (call it as you please) with whom or which he may make contact, is dependent on his own life force and medical aid for his survival, if he is in extremis. He who feels “not alone” but actually a part of a Universal Entity, is thereby able to draw strength from a store that FATE is inexhaustible. Faith is the con- necting medium, the channel through which the Divine Healing Power flows. For thousands of years Asians have held certain rather definite ideas concerning the powers inher- ent in the mind. At least some of these ideas began to gain a slow and grudging acceptance in certain cir- cles of Western thought no farther back than a mere three-quarters of a century. But the process of ac- cepting age-old Asian ideas that are strangely new to the West has been very greatly accelerated in recent years and it is now fairly common to find Occidentals who are familiar with such ancient Oriental adages as “All that we are is the result of what we have thought,” and “As a man thinketh, so he is,” The term “psychosomatic ill- ness”, referring to mind-induced sickness, is a comparative newcomer in the terminology of Western medi- cine, yet Asia has long known the power of the mind to produce either illness or well-being, depending on the use made of the mind. Some modern Western doctors now claim that as much as 60 percent and more of all illness is psychosomatic in nature. A wrongly directed mind can wreck the most vigorous of bodies. The loss of will to live can result in death. On the reverse side, a developed and well-directed mind can produce not only physical well-
Page 81
Set ap ee eee I WALKED ON THE FIERY COALS 81 being but also well-being in all as- pects of one’s life. In recent years science has been compelled to accept teachings con- cerning mind-functioning that were previously dismissed rather loftily as being “occult nonsense.” Dr. Karl Gustaf Jung, Adolf Mayer, and a host of other noted psychol- ogists, psychobiologists, alienists and the mere observant members of the medical profession in general, have consciously dethroned the formerly held idea that mind is but the brain in action. That mind and brain are closely allied can hardly be doubted. Adolf Mayer went beyond _ this point and declared that the mind is the totality of a being — the body, in all its departments, being a part of mind in quite the same way as brain, Asians go farther than this. They conceive of mind as being the totality of man plus a hard-to-de- fine “something more”. In brief, the sum total of mind is regarded as being more than the whole of its parts. What is this “something more?” Asians call it Universal Mind or The Infinite. Often it is referred to as “Unconditioned Ultimate Real- ity.” Another way of naming the unnamable is to speak of it as The Absolute. This Ultimate Reality interpenetrates and interdiffuses it- self in every fiber of the universes and all contained therein. In other. words, man has limited human mind, which most of us erroneously conceive to be our only mind, and also he is an extension or cell of Divine Mind, which he is potential- ly capable of realizing and utilizing in this present finite life. If this is done then accomplishments beyond the powers of ordinary mind be- come entirely possible and, in some cases, even downright easy. Not so long ago, such terminology as subconscious, group conscious, collective unconcious, superconsci- ous and other similar terms relating to the departments, functions and potential functions of the mind were not included in the vocabulary of any European language. Now West- ern man is at least on the verge of realizing that mind is indeed a “fearful and wonderful” thing, cap- able of accomplishing feats hitherto classified as “miracles.” Now let’s consider some of the mechanisms for accomplishing these feats. A usual, but not invariable feature accompanying paranormal accomplishments is a trance state on the part of the “miracle worker.” Unfortunately, because of centuries of stage tricks and “parlor magic” demonstrations of common hypnot- ism, in which the terms trance and hypnotic state are used interchange- ably, the general Western public has developed a rather general in- ability to distinguish the polar dif- ferences between the two states. The fact that a few outward signs are
Page 82
82 the same in trance as in hypnotic states has added to the confusion. Hypnotism, whether from an auto-source or from external influ- ence, amounts to a partial paralysis of the mind’s freedom and usually seeks to bring the mind into sharp- ly accentuated focus on some one idea or course of action. Whatever may be the intention behind the hypnotism, the phenomena deals only with finite mind or, if I may invent a term, with “braining.” Trance, on the opposite hand, is a greater or lesser degree of entering into unity with Supermind, by what- ever name called. Simultaneously, trance brings about a concentration of psycho-physical force for the purpose of accomplishing what is beyond the powers of mere ration- ality, will-power and normal feas- ibility. True trance always focuses in a paranormal direction. Trance en- larges one or more departments of mind, sometimes in a small way and sometimes in an almost incred- ibly. large way. ' Hypnotism narrows the mind, often to a single point. For ex- ample, a physician may recommend hypnosis for the removal of some such handicap as stuttering, or per- haps as a quicker and more effective treatment for some absurd phobia than would result from the more usual and more orthodox forms of treatment in such cases. Opinions FATE vary as to the lasting value of such cures. Perhaps, like all other thera- pies, the results vary from person to person. Many trance adepts need no ex- ternal stimulus as a prerequisite for entering into trance. An act of will suffices and trance can be achieved within a few minutes or, in some cases, a matter of seconds. Some adepts find a certain scent to be their sole key to the trance-door. Sound, color, the stroking of jade, or fixing the mind on “the middle of zero” are favored by others. Among East Asians and South Indians a combination of scent and sound is, by all odds, the most favored key to trance. The scent is usually the fumes from either san- dalwood or benzoin resin. The sound is, as a rule, the measured cadence of ancient mantras (mys- tical incantation formulas), usually recited in Sanskrit. Many of these formulas have no meaning and the grouping of their words never was intended to have meaning. The only way to describe them adequate- ly in modern terminology is to say that their power comes from sonic- dynamics, in short, the power of carefully managed sound. The resolute, unswerving will of the entranced one to enter into a vastly enlarged state of conscious- ness —— super-consciousness — or, in some comparatively rare cases, uni- ty with Cosmic Mind, does the rest.
Page 83
I WALKED ON THE FIERY COALS 83 At once this question comes to mind: “If resolute will is the prime requisite, then why is it that so many who have the iron will to enter such states are unable to do so?” The Asian answer is to the effect that it is a matter of how many births one has experienced in the pilgrimage of life or, to state it an- other way, a matter of how much one has managed to evolve pro- gressively from life to life. Either one is far enough advanced in spiritual evolution (an “old soul’’) and can manage paranormal states and accomplishments, or else one is still in the “ABC Class” and can only make ineffectual attempts at what is, for the moment, beyond one’s stage of evolution. To the Asian way of thinking, it’s as simple as that, no matter how the Western mind may look upon such an ex- planation. The greater the degree of true trance, the less behelden one is to the workings of natural laws as they normally apply to life. The higher and broader the level of trance, the greater the insensitivity to pain. The section of the brain which acts as telegraph office to receive and transmit messages of pain is tem- porarily closed down. A form and degree of superconsciousness super- cedes all normal mental processes. When closely watching trance adepts who are dancing for painful miles with skewers and swords piercing their flesh, or performing other normally painful feats, one finds it difficult to avoid the im- pression that mind has largely dis- sociated itself frem body, being connected only by the invisibly thin “silver cord.” To borrow from mod- ern phraseology, it seems that body is operated “by remote control.” Once in an Indian village I asked a local tapasin (one able to under- go what is usually referred to as “self-torture”) if any element of astral projection entered inte the success or failure of transcending and nullifying normal bedily reac- tions. He assured me that an adept who can do conscious astral pro- jection at will is many times more immune to pain than one whose astral being projects but poorly. He further assured me that some degree of dissociation of the astral from the gross physical bedy is al- ways present in the trance state and this is the most salient difference between trance and the hypnotic states. To anyone insisting on more “ex- planations” of the paranormal, I make this suggestion: If you are worried, fearful, anxious, emotien- ally or physically ill, if life has lost meaning for you, if any one of these conditions is yours, then I strongly urge you to undertake an adventure in Faith to see what happens. Go to your room. Close the door.

AGATHA’S DUTCH OVEN By Eva Marie Woodward N THE YEAR 1912, near Crock- er, Mo., Moses and Agatha Wheeler owned and operated a flour mill and general store. My grandparents took their wheat and corn to Wheeler’s Mill to be ground into flour and cornmeal and shopped for sugar, salt, and other staples at the Wheeler’s store. In September of that year, Moses Wheeler got caught in a belt in the mill and was crushed to death in- stantly. A week later Agatha Wheel- er was dead from pneumonia con- tracted at his funeral. Now, a young uncle of mine, Clarence Hamilton, had been help- ing out at the Wheeler store and mill for a couple of years after school, week-ends, and-during the summer vacation seasons. Uncle Clarence was very fond of both the Wheelers and they of him, since they had no children and no close relatives. About three months before the Wheelers passed away, Agatha Wheeler inherited property and a large sum of money from a relative. She sold the property. The Wheelers were quite thrifty and it was gen- erally known that they were weal- thy, besides having a thriving busi- 85 ness. However, when the funerals were over and the house was search- ed for bank books, money, or some sort of finances to pay the funeral expenses, not a cent could be found. No bank deposits. No cash. The store, mill everyplace was diligent- ly searched in vain for their wealth. Only a recent will was found leaving large sums to friends and distant relatives in case of death. Uncle Clarence was helping take inventory in the store three days after Agatha Wheeler died when, upon raising his eyes to the food shelves, he saw Agatha standing Sasa EVA MARIE WOODWARD

She had a smile upon her lovely face and was wear- ing her favorite grey dress with large white collar and cuffs. He almost fainted. He excused himself as being very ill and well he looked it, and ran home to my grandmother, Martha Hamilton. She was skeptical at first hearing his story, put him to bed, and dosed him with the current home medicine. Next evening Uncle Clarence went back to the store to work. Agatha came again at the same time. He stared and said nothing, but when he told my grandmother Mrs. Wheeler had come again she be- lieved him and told him to say to her, if she appeared again, “In the name of The Father, and of The Son, and of The Holy Ghost, what do you want here?” Sure enough at exactly 4:15 P.M. she stood before him again and he repeated the words, frightened nearly out of his wits. But she smiled at him, took a few steps away and motioned for him to fol- low her, which he did. She passed through the store, the mill, the long tunnel separating and connecting the house and mill and out into the yard where they had been build- ing a new, large stone chimney when Moses Wheeler had been killed. She stooped down, pointed to a corner of the chimney and made a motion as if she were digging. When my uncle looked up she had disappeared. He ran home as fast as he could and told his mother what Agatha Wheeler had done. Several people went right over to the place and began digging.

Harrington Curator Southwest Museum Cs Bees IS one bad thing about the Double Wall Fort,” the Seneca Indian told me when he gave me permission to dig. “The old folks say that it’s haunted. May- be you’d better make your camp down below near the creek, and walk up to the fort.” But we did not accept his advice. In the summer of 1904 we pitched our camp on that ancient village- site on the Cattaraugus Reservation near Irving, New York. It occupied the flat top of a steep-sided, high point of land overlooking Catta- raugus Creek. It was cut off from the rest of the plateau by a double line of embankments of earth, the outer one five feet high and prob- ably, in its day, the foundation of a palisade, built to protect the village. Our archeological digging for the Peabody Museum had been in prog- ress little more than a week when the thing happened. It was a moonlight night. The three of us were sitting around the campfire, smoking and talking, when I happened to raise my eyes and look eastward. I saw, not more than 30 or 40 feet away, a tall man, apparently an Indian, stand- ing and staring at us. His head, arms and body were plainly visible, but his legs seemed rather hazy and his features indistinct.

We called our helper, William Bluesky, a Seneca Indian, who had seen the whole thing, and we searched the site, the embank- ments and the steep sides of the - point, but found nothing—no trace. We agreed to say nothing to any- one about what we had seen. Next day we had to check on another site, some distance away, and I engaged a Seneca woman, Mrs. Greenblanket, who lived near- by, to watch our camp. There was a road, not far off on the plateau, used by all kinds of people, I told her to stay until about dark, then to go home, as by that time no in- truder could find his way in. But when we returned to camp an hour or two after nightfall, we found her and her two little daugh- ters huddled in one of the tents. Believe me, they looked scared! “T thought I’d better stay until you got back,’ Mrs. Greenblanket explained, “but something bad hap- pened. I was sitting in here, sew- ing by this lamp, some time after sundown and my little girls had been playing outside, when they came running in. ‘Mama,’ they told me, “‘There’s a big man out there and he won’t talk to us!’ I hurried out. There stood a tall man, be-

GINGER STILL NIPS By Ethel Brader OR SIX wonderful years an adorable dachshund named Gin- ger owned me. Then in November, 1959, her spine was so severely in- jured in an accident that the only merciful thing to do was to have her put to sleep. That first night I was awakened three different times by whimpering sounds but, being so grieved at having had to have her destroyed, I thought I was dreaming. Several days later I adopted a new pet, a sheltie puppy. Until Rory was four months old he slept in an empty grocery carton. Then I prepared Ginger’s old red metal bed for him, thinking he now was old enough to sleep in it. When I placed him in it, however, he trem- bled and whined. The instant I let go of him he dashed from the bed, his tail between his legs. I never have been able to force him to sleep in that bed. I finally gave him a rug placed on the other side of the kitchen. As cold weather came on that

MIND OVER SPACE, by Nandor Fodor. The Citadel Press, New York, 1962. 221 pages, $3.95. Much of the scientific and tech- nological effort of the 19th and 20th centuries has been concentrated on annihilating space, from the steam- ship on up through the railroad train, the automobile and the air- plane to the man-carrying rocket. Even this last is considered only a beginning, and the cranky chem- ical-fueled space craft of the pres- ent, able to carry passengers little further than the moon, are ex- pected to give way before long to atom-powered vessels capable of bearing explorers to the nearer stars. Radio and television represent another—electronic—form of anni- hilating space. From these begin- nings in the field of electronics we may leap to an ultimate develop- ment already forecast in science- fiction—the matter transmitter, a futuristic super-gadget which broad- casts objects somewhat as television broadeasts images. If this visionary concept ever is realized, a traveler may step into a matter-transmitter on earth and arrive practically in- BOOKS stantaneously at his destination, a receiving station at some distant point on earth—or even on some other planet. Here is space annihil- ated with a vengeance! The reader who finds the idea of matter-transmission sufficiently amazing may be dumbfounded to be told that a non-mechanical version of it has existed for quite some time. Fairly numerous reports throughout history tell of people, animals and inanimate objects mysteriously dis- appearing from one point on earth _ and reappearing at another, dozens 95 —and even thousands—of miles away, in a fraction of the time it would take to cover the same dis- tance by ordinary means. It is as though the usual barriers of space- time ‘are miraculously overcome. These incredible transportations be- long to the realm of psychic phe- nomena and have been given the name teleportation, a term which suggests their kinship with such other psychic phenomena as telep- athy (feeling or thought transmit- ted across space) and telekinesis (motion given to objects across space, without physical contact). Teleportation is one of the rarer forms of psychic phenomena and

A well-attested occurrence, it is reported from the earliest writ- ten accounts of which there is any record. In practically every case, certain consistent features are to be seen: the phenomenon is unex- pected, undesired and unprevent- able; the transported person van- ishes from sight without warning; his appearance elsewhere is instan- taneous; he suffers no bodily harm, but is in a dazed or trance-like con- dition and has no memory of his experience; his destination is not pre-determined but random and seems to serve no practical purpose. Those who witness an occurrence of teleportation are confronted by the problem of somehow explain- ing what they have witnessed—a problem on which even modern science sheds little light. In lieu of positive knowledge, man bases his explanations on the theories, religious beliefs, myths or folklore which prevail in his particular time and place. An incredible event like teleportation seems to require an equally incredible explanation. Thus, at various periods, gods, demons, sorcerers, witches, fairies and spir- its of the dead have been advanced as the cause. In Mind Over Space Dr. Nandor Fodor, a practicing psycheanalyst as well as a noted investigator and author in the field of psychic re- search, presents a collection of fas- cinating cases of teleportation. These have been gathered from ancient and modern records by evidently painstaking research. Dr. Fodor has missed little, if he has missed any- thing at all, and his collection not only fills a definite gap in beoks on psychic phenomena but is like-

From more recent sources come tales of hapless victims being “borne by the poltergeist,” such as the young Pansini brothers of Bari, Italy, who on one occasion disap- peared from home and reappeared at a convent 30 miles away, and on another reappeared on a fishing boat at sea. And from the modern annals of Spiritualism and psychic research come accounts such as those concerning the “flights” of Mrs. Samuel Guppy and of the Marquis Centurione Scotto. These are particularly interesting—and, in fact, in the examination of the scenes by investigators, the ques- tioning of witnesses and the taking of testimony, are as absorbing as mystery stories. However, the en- tire volume is uniformly entertain- ing, for Dr. Fodor narrates his cases with charm and wit. In addition to teleportation cases, Dr. Fodor presents examples of levi- tation and apportation to show the similarities and differences which exist between all these phenomena. He examines the validity of the various theories offered on tele- portation and offers one of his own—a theory with the merit to be expected of a prominent psy- choanalyst and one which time very well may prove the true solution of the teleportation mystery.— Chester S.

NEW BOOKS TRINITY KEY, by H. B. Stephens. Published by H. B. Stephens, Rua Dra. Iracy Doyle 6, 2°D, Gascais, Portugal, 1961. 251 pages, $4.00. This handsomely printed book, published by a retired Canadian bank man permanently resident in Portugal, essentially offers a psy- chosomatic approach to health, based on a new interpretation of the Bi- ble. The author states, “The Bible is a purely metaphysical work, and as such, contains the truth about life.’ He believes that the Scrip- tures are written allegorically and that the key to scriptural writing is the Gnostic doctrine of the Trin- ity: Father, Son and Holy Ghost, the metaphysical interpretation of which is mind, thought and bodily form. He also believes that the truth about life in the Bible is that “life and existence are primarily and essentially mental or spiritu- al in nature, not material as ap- pears to be the case. A human being is a purely mental being, naturally and eternally harmonious and perfect, not a physical being.” Since, according to the author, thought completely governs all as- pects of human life, therefore “by virtue of a higher standard of thought, based on the purely men- tal concept of life, an improvement automatically takes place in the in- dividual health and circumstances to correspond with the improved state of mind.” The author interprets statements and incidents in the Old and the New Testament on the basis of what he considers their allegorical meaning. In addition he offers prac- tical applications of his theories and a concise survey of ancient re- Ke .o RRA RES TIA IE ; 1962? 1963? 1964? YOUR YEAR OF DESTINY — which one?

The Fabulous RHINE COLLECTION of true-experience ESP reports Ihe Parapsychology Laboratory at Duke University acts as a gigantic magnet, drawing to it wonderful reports of ESP phenomena from people everywhere. These reports form the most complete and astonish- ing collection of ESP evidence in the world This evidence has been seen by the public only in very technical form as sta- tistics. But now HIDDEN CHANNELS OF THE MIND presents Dr. Rhine’s carefully recorded and ana- lyzed cases . as_ thrilling stories told by the actual people involved. Here are the best and most exciting reports collected by Dr. Louisa Rhine, Dr. J. B. Rhine (her noted husband) and their colleagues in more than 30 years of re- search. 291 pages. Hidden Channels of the Mind by Louisa E. Rhine $5.00 VENTURE BOOKSHOP Box 671, Evanston, Ill. Dr. Rhine P.O. FATE ligions, which he attempts to prove contain beliefs similar to his own. His views no doubt will be con- sidered controversial, but will be of interest to those who specialize in hunting new ideas in the wide- open spaces of Bible interpreta- tion.—Guy Archette. THE MIND AND TIME AND SPACE, by Dan Tassi. Dorrance & Co., Philadelphia, 1962. 250 pages, $3.00. Some of the more intrepid re- searchers in psychic phenomena have advanced the concept of psy- chically teleporting a subject to dis- tant planets to determine what conditions prevail there. A few psy- chics, both amateur and profession- al, even claim to have had out-of- the-body experiences along this line. Only time and actual ‘space travel, of course, can ‘tell whether this form of research is valid. In The Mind and Time and Space, Dan Tassi, a psychologist who earn- ed his degree at the University of California, reports experiments in this field. “For beneath the muck and slime floating atop the turbulent layer of the unconscious ... there is a vast unexplored tranquil re- gion. It is not disturbed by frustrated sexuality or broken dreams. Its dimensions are too vast for the petty, its functions too universal for the personal.” In his experiments, Tassi claims to have reached these deep, tran- quil layers. However, the myriad of control data necessary to assume any validity for the experimentation are lacking. A subject was hypno- tized, a few tests were performed (such as putting spider eggs into a bottle, psychically reducing the subject to a height of one-eighth of
Page 103
NEW BOOKS an inch, and transporting her onto the eggs), and she was—with great justification—sent on her merry way to visit the planets of the solar system. The idea would seem to merit great consideration—more than this reviewer feels Mr. Tassi was will- ing to confront. The controls were certainly inadequate, and too much attention was given to justifying the subject’s often nebulous descrip- tions with astronomical data which is extremely hypothetical as yet. What strange conditions, accord- ing to the book, exist on other planets? Mercury: “There is no life on this body which is quite dim in the burned out area.” Venus: “ .. . there may be a very unlimited number of primi- tive organisms here that could hiber- nate during the day within en- closed, sheltered regions to survive the extreme heat.” Mars: “ fragile’ insect-like creatures” which have “a long, nar- row, peaked face; large round eyes, a small thin mouth,” ete. As a record of an unusual type of research attempted at least within the atmosphere of science, the book ends up within the atmos- phere of science-fiction—and, at that, lacking the wealth of imagin- ative detail which characterizes science-fiction—Maz B. Miller. THE BOY AND THE BROTHERS, by Swami Omananda Puri. Doubleday & Company, Garden City, New York, 1960. 302 pages, $3.95.

In 1891 John Ballou Newbrough and Andrew M. Howland issued a ‘‘re- vised and corrected’’ edition of OAH- SPE. Because since 1885 the first edition could not be purchased any- where, the public has been unable to ascertain what these changes were. With this photocopied edition of OAHSPE the 1882 edition is once more made available. With the ad- vent of the Space Age, OAHSPE is being vindicated, and proven to be one of the world’s important books. UNEXPURGATED This edition of OAHSPE contains 928 pages. It also contains nearly three quarters of a million words. The Book of Cosmology might have been written by today’s space scien- tists! Much of the science in OAH- SPE has only recently been ‘‘dis- covered’. Today space satellites are discovering ‘‘how it is’’ out in space, while in 1882 OAHSPE contained the same information! As an in- stance, the now famous Van Allen radiation belts. The reader is over- whelmed by the science of OAHSPE. 510.00 Order Your Copy From RAY “PALMER AMHERST, WISCONSIN (Available Nowhere Else!)

Hardly a para- graph goes by without some men- tion of karma, reincarnation, yoga, metaphysics, spiritual healing, Mas- ters, or the like. This I offer by way of description rather than (nec- essarily) criticism. The author gives only the brief- est mention of her career as a child prodigy, who twice was violin solo- ist with the Boston Symphony; and as the first woman in 2000 years to become a sannyasi, thus legally en- titled to the title Swami. But even this achievement is subservient to the main. theme: the story of a Cockney boy from the slums of London who became her: devoted servant and eventually her second husband. Soon after joining her household, the Boy (as he came to be called) displayed facility for entering the trance state, during which allegedly certain other enti- ties spoke and acted through his body. The dramatizations were soon superceded by the appearance in trance of various ethical teachers, which collectively became known as the Brothers. By far the most interesting ma- terial is in the third section, in which the Swami discusses the me- chanics of the trance state, the na- ture of the spiritual healing attri- buted to the Brothers and the na- ture of those entities. In the fourth and final section, her moving de-— seription of the prolonged illness and death of the Boy approaches true tragedy. The evaluation of the book as a whole must remain up to the reader. As one initially rather skeptical, I must confess being much impressed with the Swami’s sincer- ity—David Techter.

UFO’S IN HAITI I wish to relate a story my moth- er once told me. I am fully aware of the fact that -many persons place no eredence in UFO’s. Per- haps this particular episode will alter their thinking. My mother, Mrs. Anna Sucear, now a widow, has been in the com- merce field for many years and has a large clientele. Many of her cus- tomers live rather poorly and are illiterate. One of them, named Alice, came to purchase a few pounds of merchandise with her meager say- ings. Mother inquired about her health, knowing the deplorable con- ditions that_existed in some parts of Haiti. Mother had the habit of visiting customers who lived nearby, but she where Alice lived. Alice replied that she resided at Tl-A-Vache, which is quite a tiny island off the coast of Les Cayes in the southern part of Haiti, where there is absolute desolation, except for a few scattered huts here and there. Mother expressed surprise that anyone could live so far from civilization. It was impossible to reach that island without a small chalouwpe, which is a clumsy sort of tug made of logs.

FATE her island was desolate. She said on many occasions she and her neigh- bors had the opporunity to see round- ed planes, as she described them, land on her island. She made these statements quite innocently. She did not know how to read or write, and knew little about any type of aircraft except for having seen them in the skies, or when the mail arrived once or twice a week. Mother was amazed and asked Alice for more information. Alice said that one sunny afternoon a rounded airplane came from the sky. She said she never had seen one like it before. It was quite round, resembling the saucer of a cup, and as large as half a city house in Haiti. It landed slowly, rotating, and from the craft two men emerged. They were very tall and had very white skins, as though they never had any contact with sunlight. They wore beards and had earrot-like hair. From the neck down they were dressed in long suits, and at their belts were lights of some sort which Alice described as red and green button bulbs.

REPORT FROM THE READERS Alice said she and her friends «were very pleased, thinking the ar- rivals were Americans. They ap- proached the men and asked for a few coins (since they are very poor the natives always beg for money from tourists who visit Haiti). Alice and the others were greet- ed by long stares and silence from the strange visitors. The men did not speak even to each other, but merely stared at Alice and her friends as if studying them. Fright- ened, Alice and the others ran to their huts, from which they watched as the strangers quickly returned to their craft and left. This is indeed quite a fantastic story, but I believe it has validity as it was told by a woman who did not think it had any significance 107 $LACK OF MONEY $ forced me to play a game.

I., Staten Island, News PATHS THROUGH THE SKY I have enjoyed FATE ever since it first came out and, also, I have been a sky observer ever since the first Ken Arnold report of “flying saucers.” I have seen much in the way of strange phenomena, both at night and in the daytime. There is. one sighting I do wish to report. Many times on cloudy or semi-cloudy days I have noticed a dark path cut through a long cloud bank, and often I have seen a jet following this path. Just a few weeks ago I actually saw a path being cut through the clouds and a jet following whatever was cut- ting the path. The strange part of the whole incident is that after the UFO left the clouds and sailed into the bright blue sky, a dark ‘streak still was plainly visible to the naked eye, and the jet was following this dark streak. I have another eyewitness to this, for as soon as I saw the path being eut I rushed to a gas station where I have a friend who also is interest- ed in aerial phenomena. The Air Force certainly knows its jets are after something. AI- though the UFO’s are invisible, they evidently show up on a radar screen.—William EH. Wamsley, Auro- ra, Ill.

A SOUL Ad POWER Is The Greatest Force In The Universe— It is the dynamic activating principle back of all genuine achievement, Spiritually and inaterially. Those possessing this power are limitless in their progression on all planes. Mankind must awaken and develop this dormant inner force if it is to survive the coming travail of mounting world chaos — and be able to face with confidence the changes and problems of the dawning New Spiritual Age. Man must learn to be his own savior or he is going to be his own destroyer. He has been woefully misled. Cease following false and shallow teach- ings which actually cause you to completely by-pass God and his Divine Laws. Soul Power enables you to tap God’s great storehouse of knowledge and wisdom for your own full guidance and deliverance. Learn how you can develop this dynamic power, as the Nazarene did, through the teachings in Soul Science and Divine Law, as revealed by the Ancient Mystics and Masters of old. Do not delay. It is much later than you think.

SUBCONSCIOUS PREMONITIONS I was struck by the fact that no one connected with the Ed Koterba Harp of Angels case connected the plucking of strings with the fact that he was killed by striking wires. Having experienced many cases of - premonition myself, I thought at once that he might have been hear- ing the “harp of power lines” which caused his death. The fact that Ed Koterba liked to fly but dreaded that flight also suggests that he may have known subconsciously that. he was flying toward his “harp of death.” Also the fact that he joked about it sug- gests that his subconscious mind was trying to warn him. It seems to me that this case may illustrate Carl Jung’s idea that we are separated from our instincts because we have made a god of our conscious reasoning mind. Since we completely ignore the findings of the subconscious, animal-instinct mind, instinct no longer can save the or- ganism. The instinct mind, I am led to be- lieve, has extended awareness and perceives danger far ahead of the conscious mind. But as it is a primi- tive, animal-mind, it has no words with which to warn us. So it pre- sents a picture, sound or symbol to the conscious mind by way of warn- ing it what lies ahead.—Carolyn B. Bauman, San Diego, Calif.

FIRST SCIENTIFIC STUDY OF TELEPO RTATION Orde Foe LECTRONIC DEVICES can send handwriting and photographs through space in seconds of time. Electronic scanning, however, does not move the original, it only copies it for a distant receiving station. To send an original object instan- taneously through space is beyond the capabilities of science. However, if human records, tradi- tion and beliefs can be believed at all, a non-mechanical method of space travel may already exist: teleportation. Teleportation is a fascinating word, a fit companion to telepathy and telekinesis, Teleportation is a form of transportation: a sudden disappear- ance from a point in space and re- emergence elsewhere in a dazed con- dition, perhaps hundreds of miles away, as if waking from a state of trance. It has been reported from the be- ginning of human history. In the Bible & is accomplished by the Spirit of the TO: Box 671, OVER SPACE.

I was anemic, for one thing, and was taking iron tablets and tonic to bring up my blood count; this is one of the few things which might explain what happened to me. Possibly the explanation is that I have silver fillings in four back teeth, or that I have had a few jolts from touching electric wires when my feet were bare and wet, or that a year previously lightning struck so close to me that I could hear my hair crackle around my ears. Every noise seemed to be magni- fied and I found it difficult to get to sleep unless the house was quiet and the room dark. Loud noises seemed to jolt through me. I had gone to bed and was trying to get to sleep. I called to my hus- band, Ralph to turn the radio down. He said it was not turned on. However, I still heard a radio playing inside me! My teeth were not clenched, but were close enough so that they seemed to be vibrating. I did hear a station—the sound was as if heard through a hearing aid. The radio, I learned, not only was not on—it was not even plug- ged in!—Mrs. Ralph Mills, Cope- land, Idaho. FALSE ALARM None of the predictions men- tioned in FATE in connection with the conjunction of planets in Feb- ruary came true—not even an eclipse of the sun. These predictions upset me and I took down all my vases, statuettes and china for fear of earthquakes. Now I have to put them all back in their places.

REPORT FROM THE READERS “NO APPORTS AT STANFORD U.” In his article, “Fraud Is Where You Find It,” in the April, 1962, is- sue of FATE, James Crenshaw states: “Yet as late as 1950 a professor of law at the University of Can- berra in Australia charged, in writ- ing, that Thomas Stanford had been taken in by ‘a particularly fraudu- lant “medium.” ’ The professor re- stated a well-known fact, namely, that Thomas Stanford had donated a $55,000 fund to Stanford Univer- sity in California—the university founded by his brother, Leland Stan- ford—for psychical research and had sent many of the apports pro- duced by the medium in question (i.e., Charles Bailey) to the uni- versity’s psychology department for study.” In 1949, in response to an article, “Through Solid Walls,” by Clarkson Dye in the July, 1949, issue of FATE in which the alleged exhibition of apports at Stanford University also is mentioned, Mr: Kirk Drussai, Secretary of the Fortean Society wrote to Stanford University and received the following reply from Mr. Robert Cross, Associate Di- rector, printed in FAtn, January, 1950, “Report From the Readers” (page 95): . “In regard to Mr. Dye’s article, it is not based on facts.

IMAGES AS REALITIES Many of the incidents reported in your regular feature, “My Proof of Survival,” are most unusual and very interesting. But the average man will be convinced only by an extremely unusual psychic experi- ence of his own. Analysis will reveal that even the most matter-of-fact thought or dream is a psychic experience in the truest sense of the term. Preva- lent theories of brain patterns as the physical basis of imagery keep psychology in continuing hopeless confusion. The only alternative the- ory is that objective realities re- main the physical basis of all per- ception—in memory and imagina- tion as well as in immediate per- ception by the senses. Materialism and Spiritualism seem unaware that there is common ground for agreement. Materialism denies survival although this con- cept is undeniably a corollary to the science of philosophy of space-time permanence. Spiritualism denies material substance to life in space- time depths. “The evidence of survival most convincing to me is any clear “im- age” of a departed friend in dream or wakeful thought, no matter how matter-of-fact or bizarre the com- bination of its details. My article in the March, 1960, issue of FATE, “The Reality of Mental Images,” states this view more clearly. I understand that the term “spirit survival” largely is used in defer-

I’m aware that the word refers to a “departed” person. But if the spirit is immaterial, as commonly theorized, how, without substance of any kind, can forms appear so clear- ly for our perception in psychic ex- perience?—Nat Rapport, Jamaica, N.Y. “THE BIBLE SUPPORTS WEGENER” Just a note concerning your item “And Wilder” on page 9 of the April, 1962, issue. To some of us unsophisticated . minds what is published under the heading “scientific” is amusing. I am one of those simple souls who believe the Bible to be the in- spired word of God, regardless of all the “scientific” knowledge in this so-called enlightened age. Here is one instance where the Wegener theory is correct accord- ing to the Bible. All one has to do is just turn to Genesis 10:25 and read: “Unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth di- vided: s=.., 2 This word “divided” is Hebrew “nalag’—to cleave, to divide, to disunite. The scholars ‘tell us that the earth was one land mass pre- vious to this time. That is why the Divine Truth named this man Pe- leg, for his name means division. The geophysical earth was divided as an act of judgment to separate the peoples from the rebel Nimrod who was th founder of Babylon. He instituted the false religion of idola- © try in opposition to the true wor- ship of Jehovah.—Earl Hitchcock, Los Angeles, Calif.

REPORT FROM THE READERS PS!I_ VS. WEATHER _ Regarding the article “Did They Sense Disaster?” by Paul Foght in the March, 1962, issue, I be- lieve in psi, too, but in these statis- tics the weather conditions on the days of the accidents should have been considered also. Most accidents happen on days with bad weather, and people tend to stay at home on such days.— Ignatz Farber, Phoenix, Ariz. SHATTERED WINDSHIELDS DEPT. Having read Edwin S. Parker’s report in the April issue of FATE, I was reminded of a similar ex- perience which occurred in July, 1960. I recall that during the late evening prior to our “windshield incident,” my husband and I had simultaneously heard a loud boom- ing crash which seemed almost to strike the garage roof top, while at the same time we heard the sound of a strong wind sweeping into and through the garage it- self. The door which is the en- trance into our -den from the gar- age blew open. However, upon in- vestigation of the garage we found nothing disturbed nor unusual and we then retired for the night. In the late morning of the fol- lowing day, when I opened the door leading to the garage, intending to go marketing, I was shocked _and dismayed to see the entire rear window of our 1959 Mercury com- pletely shattered with a six inch hole on one side. My husband is certain that everything was normal in the early morning when he left for his office, since he would have seen anything unusual as he passed the Mercury before entering his Pontiac. FLYING SAUCERS America’s only Fact Magazine with complete coverage of the famous UFO. Flying saucers are a fact. A national poll has proved that one American in every four is aware of the truth of that statement. In spite of this, FLYING SAUCERS Magazine is the only publica- tion deyoted to presenting all the facts and all the latest news concerning uni- dentified flying objects. It is the only magazine wherein the public can pierce the fog in which official sources have shrouded a matter of vital and general public concern. Here is a magazine you can depend on to keep you up to the minute on every development. More than 5000 sightings have been reported to the editors, and new sightings come in daily. Hundreds of these are from repu- table people, airline pilots, scientific experts, even clergymen. FLYING SAUC- ERS has a staff of experts who evaluate every sighting, subject every photo to exhaustive tests, analyze every theory presented, and who meticulously report the truth as they see it. Today Man is aiming his sights at the stars. He in- tends to fly to other planets. But are the inhabitants of other worlds already visiting us? It may be so, but even if not, this magazine is writing the daily history of the new space age!

CONTACTS WITH THE BEYOND I seem to have some contact with the beyond, for here is what hap- pened to me on Sunday, February 11, 1962, as I was getting ready for church about 8:45 A.M. I had in my left hand a hair comb I wear in my hair. Suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my wrist, just _ above my hand. The pain automa- tically opened my hand, and as I looked at it I saw my comb being slowly dragged across my hand. A weight seemed to be on it as the comb felt rough to my hand. When the comb was just about off my hand, a peculiar loud buzz- ing commenced and all I saw of the comb was just a heavy shadow with three teeth just at my hand. Then the entire comb disappeared and the buzzing stopped. I did not see the comb again un- til about a week later when it ap- peared on the stand close to where it disappeared. Needless to say, I am still shaken by the experience. Things like this have happened to me ever since I was about 12 years old.—Nellie Lucas, Orangevale, Calif. : GRAVESIDE PHENOMENON I wish to know if any other

REPORT FROM THE READERS reader has experienced seeing the life force or aura leaving the body. This happened at the grave of my nephew, Roland Rickard, on July 24, 1959, at Enumclaw, Wash. He had died in California and his body was shipped to Washington for interment in our family plot at Enumclaw, Wash. We never had been close so I do not understand why I had the privi- lege of seeing his aura, spirit or life energy leave the human shell. I do not go along with the idea of bowing one’s head in prayer; it is defeatism: to me. I always look up as it should be an inspiration, a positive thing, not a’ negative prayer. While the minister was conduct- ing the graveside rites, all heads were bowed but mine. I glanced at the casket and saw a strange mist or vortex starting to emerge from the head of the coffin. It grew in height, swaying like a balloon on a string. It kept getting larger and larger as the rites continued, until it was almost as tall as a man and shaped as such, but semi-trans- parent. Thinking it must be a breeze or a dust devil, I looked up at the trees, but they - were motionless. Not a breath of air was stirring. No other head was raised but mine. I looked at the other mourn- ers to see if any one else was ob- serving the phenomenon, but ap- parently I was the only one to no- tice it. As the minister pronounced the word, Amen, the man-like, misty shape broke loose from the casket, hovered a second or two, becoming motionless, then rose slowly and ° (Continued on Page 129) I21I FATE Coliectors Market Report Back Issues as low as 6 Copies for $2.00 (L.A., Calif.)

REPORT FROM THE READERS took off in a northerly direction.— Kathleen McNally, Monterey, Calif., “NO WARNINGS” ‘I had always thought that the first and foremost reason for devel- oping psychic power was to help people. The more power you had to help the better. But it appears to me all you are interested in is re- cording rather common-place (oc- cultly speaking) “phenomena.” Another thing that puzzles me is that no place in this magazine do yeu even mention, mueh less warn, about the dangers involved in forcing psychic development. It might be a good idea if you sighted a few cases of obsession and other things which have occurred when people do force this power. You carry ads for crystal balls, lessons in Yoga, etc, and no warnings! In India, where Yoga originates, pupils never study even elementary breathing exercises except under the strict guidance of a master. How can people just introduced to the occult distinguish between the real and unreal, the dangerous and the harmless! Just because some- thing is supernatural is by no means an indication that it will help them, or is what it appears. I think there are many things better left alone until the proper time. No doubt you are doing a service with some of your information. Many of the books you advertise look interesting and helpful, but advocating the forcing of these highly destructive, as well as ad- vantageous psychic powers, as it is obvious you do, is pure unadulter- ated folly, I sincerely believe.— Barbara Platz, Hugene, Ore. THE HIDDEN WORLD A’ NEW IDEA IN BOOK PUBLISHING: SUBSCRIPTION BOOKS What is the Shaver Mystery? There are many theories: There are those who support Shaver in his materialistic honeycomb of cav- erns the world over, heritage of a Titan-Atlan race which fled a poisoned world over 12,000 ‘years ago. There are those who cali his cav- ems the ‘‘astral’’, his dero the spirits of the dead. Some say it is ‘“‘another dimension”, another realm of life alongside ours, invisible under ordinary circumstances: THE ENTIRE SHAVER MYSTERY Here it is at last! The greatest single ob- stacle to publication has been cost — the average book costs $4.00. And the Shaver Mystery, in its entirety, will take a whole series of books.
