ASTOR PREDICTS STARTLING
EVENTS FOR PRESENT YEAR.
The Rev. Charles J.
tor of the First
church, revealed to the
Spiritualist |
Uaited Press |
of world im- |
t events during 1931, obtain-
ed, he said, through consultation with
the spirit world. :
Among the events forecast by
Rev. Morrow for the next 11
months are repeal of prohibition, |
death of Premier Benito Mussolini |
William
and defeat of Mayor H.
‘Tho by Judge John H. Lyle |
dn Ccago's election.
Also, according to the predictions, |
the Prince of Wales will be serious- |
ly ill during September, an unsuc-
cessful move will be started to unite |
Protestant and Catholic churches |
and a steamship with hundreds of
ers aboard will sink because |
of an intoxicated captain. !
“Both my church and myself are |
fully accredited members of the Na- |
tional Spirtualists’ association with |
headquarters in W " Rev.
Morrow announced, “I stake my
groisasional reputation on the be-
lief that my forecasts will come true.
“Last year I issued a list of 32
predictions. All except two of them
“were fulfilled.”
Messages frcm persons many years
dead were used to make up the list
of predictions, Rev, Morrow said. |
For example, said that Con-
fucius, the famous Chinese philoso-
pher who died centuries ago, warn-
ed him that unprecedented unem-
ployment disturbances will occur in
“China.
Here are some of Rev. Morrow's
other forecasts:
There is a man coming out of ob-
scu who will invent wings which
can be attached to a man or woman
‘to lift the individual off the ground.
Business in the United States will
pe exceptionally and unem-
ploymat will to decrease in
pril.
During the year, David Belasco,
John D. Rockefeller, Marie Dressler
and Von Hindemburg will die.
The stock market will advance
steadily until November and then
decline, two of the largest steel com-
nies will merge, three t mo-
‘tion picture companies will unite.
A United States Senator will lose
his mental balance, but there will
"be little publicity connected with it.
The United States and Canada
“will have plenty of rain and sun-
shine and an abundance of crops.
A man named Edward Lynn, wi
“the help of God, will discover a poul-
‘tice to cure appedicitis,
There will be Communistic dis-
turbances in the United States, an
the
of Japan; po!
Mexico; disturbances in Turkey and
religious disturbances throughout
‘the world.
In one of the newer and
largest buil will have a terri-
‘ble accident, due to poor founda-
tions. There will be no loss of
life,
A railroad train going through a
“tunnel in Montana will be stopped
by a landslide. The train will k
out again and not a person will be
injured.
In Arizona there will be discover-
‘ed a new kind of fruit which ap-
rsto grow on bushes. Not as
arge as an apple. It is to be eaten
‘raw and is exquisitely delicious,
In Cleveland, Ohio, in a suburb,
known ns Lakehurst, a fire will
“threaten to destroy the whole suburb.
PLAN SCRAPPING 3,000,000
OLD AUTOS IN U. S. YEARLY
If wour auto is past the age of
‘even, you'd better watch out!
For the scrap iron men will be
“watching for the old buses as they
‘chig-chug along with banging fen-
«ders and sagging tops,
Plans are to wreck old cars at the
rate of 3,000,000 yearly on an or-
:ganized, wholesale system.
So says Benjamin Schwartz, Néw
York, director general of the Insti-
tute of Scrap Iron and Steel.
“Negotiations are being made with
credited scrappers of steel in all
«cities to handle the old cars,” he said.
“Special equipment would be in-
stalled for the work. Arrangements
‘would be made with dealers to turn
over to authorized scrappers their
©ld cars.
“*The yearly total of steel and iron
salvaged would approximate 1,500,-
000 tons.
“This would mean a conservation
of 7.500,000 tons or iron ore and
other materials that go into the
manufacture of iron and steel.
“The scrappers would be selected
‘from members of our on,
which would be for the
entire work, said Mr. Schwartz. One
=» the centers would be in Pitts-
rgh.
Negotiations for the proposed sys-
tem are expected to be completed
“this summer, according to Schwartz.
At present there is no system of
scrapping old autos, independent
wreckers buying them at random
and salvaging old parts to add to
“their profits.

It has been said that there is a
sucker born every minute. If this be
true, there are 1,440 potential custom-
ers of the mail-order houses ushered
into the world every 24 hours and the
year.
Of course, as Mark Twain remarked
regarding reports of his death, these
figures may be exaggerated, but they
serve to illustrate the fact that the
mail-order houses of the big cities al-
ways have new flelda to exploit and
are not hampered in thelr dealings by
the necessity of pleasing all their old
customers. If the mall-order buyer
discovers that he has been “stung”
and registers a vigorous kick, it means
nothing in the young life of the mall
order man. Why should he worry as
long as there are some 90,000,000 other
persons in the United States to whom
he may make his alluring appeals.

Local Merchant's Field Limited.
Compare the position of the mall or
. der man with that of the retail mer-
| chant in the small city or town. The
retail merchant has a certain limited |
_ territory from which he must draw his
| trade. All his business must be done
| day after day and year after year
among the same people. The buyers
| to whom he can appeal for business
| number only a few thousand at the
| most and in some cases a few hun-
dred. Unless he can make his cus-
tomers his friends and bring them
back to his store again, he cannot con-
tinge in business. The result is that
he looks beyond the single sale which
he may be making at the time. It is
to his interest to please every one of
his customers. It will profit him noth-
ing to make a big profit off a customer
on one sale If that customer is not
satisfied with his purchase and refuses
to come back to his store again,

Gets It While He Can.
The idea upon which the mail order
