He is a carpenter whose only laboratory consists of home-made equipment which enables him to forecast considerably in advance earthquakes In the most distant quarters of the globe. A close check made by the United Press during recent months revealed his predictions correct in far more than a majority of cases in which he attempted a prediction. —The United Press. New York. By Raffaele Bendandi. (Written for the United Press) Faenza. Italy, Oct. 22. — (United. Press.)—is it possible to predict the earthquakes? The question, which until a short time ago was simply absurd, today is curb nn inncer. for if it be true that

many savants answer it in the negative, it is equally true that a distinguished array of scientists, such as ; Moreaux, Alfani. Stiattesi. not to mention other famous predecessors, think that there should be a key to this j deep and terrifying mystery, and that the mystery must have its laws which the intelligent and tenacious scientist will have to find. The prevention of earthquakes is, certainly unthinkable, as Abbot Beri .aelot, who lived in the 17th Century. I foolishly held as feasible, but it is undoubtedly possible to foresee them and to avoid and mitigate their deadly consequences. Efforts in the direction ot predicting earthquakes date back to a very remote age, as it can be seen in Aristoteles’ and Pliny’s works. It is in fact related that Anaximander (600 B. C.) by observing a Junction of a number of astral bodies, was able to anonunce to the Lacedemonians beforehand a violent earthquake which set a section of their city in ruins. A further example ot prediction Is recorded by chronicles as having occurred in 1343. when the bishop of Naples predicted with a mathematical accuracy the deadly shocks which wrecked that city on November 20. It is a scientifically proven fact that there are periods in which earthquakes are more numerous; there are times in which our planet undergoes ja serious and intermittent malady; it wavers and it is shaken as if it were ! a prey to tremendous convulsions, which are followed by a phase of calm, even though comparative. Briefly, the telluric activity is subject to a perennial oscillation. Long periods of profound lethargy are followed by brusque and sudden outbreaks. ; which constantly leave a long trail

of casualltlea behind. All the observers and tnvesllagtors ot these phenomena have not evidently learned from the great book of nature, the very simple truth that i nothing happens by chance in nature, because what the uninitiated call "chance.” 1s nothing but effect of unknown forces. 1 confess frankly that 1 pity those illustrious professors who stated that the Japanese earthquake (yas a result ot a sudden underground crack. The explanation for the disaster at Santa Barbara was likewise foolish. It wus said that the cause was to be/found in brusque cave—in. due to want of support. A fine discovery. Would it not have been easier to say that, the city of the American millionaires crashed because of a brusque and sudden giving-in of the earth? As it may be seen, seismological science cannot tell us anything on this subject iu face of the uncertainity over the inner nature or the origin of the phenomena. Ido state iu the most emphatic manner, and will soon prove it by unmistakable facts, that all the phenomena and all the different and complex forms ot terrestrial dynamism, wherever they occur, are closely connected by an intercontinental link. This is the reason why I canont help but signal every telluric ''manifestation of some importance, inasmuch as it serves clearly to prove the existence of a close conenction between the phenomena, which have a single origin in the great geological melting pot. Only by starting from such a conception. it is possible to arrive at a seismological prediction. This is the criteron which led me to making predictions, all of which have come true with astounding accuracy, namely thgi

Japanese catastrophy, the violent earthquake in Mexico, the telluric paroxysm that shook the Philippines on May last, the big seismical commotion in California on June 29. and the tremendous eruption of Santorln volcano In the Greek archipelago. Body Os Man Frozen In Michigan Is Located Negaunee, Mich. Oct. 22.-(United Press)—The body of Wairno Malkl, 14. frozen in the snowstorm that swept this territory early In the week, was brought back home today. Wuituos body was found in the woods near here late yesterday. Aimo Johnson. 17. a companion, is under medical attention. His hands, feet and face are frozen and his mind is reported unbalanced by the experience. Aimo staggered into the farmhouse late yesterday and collapsed. The two. along with three other boys, made a trip into the woods Sunday. They were overtaken by the blizzard, and became separated. Three of the boys managed to win their way back to town. o Commissioners May Oust Miss Werber — Hurtford City. Oct. 22— At a private session of the board of county j commissioners held Wednesday morning. the matfer of the recent changq in the auditor's office was taken up ! and discussed at length Knowledge that Miss Ruth Werber, who now holds the office, has disqualified herself for the office by accepting another public office has been presented to the board, and the ■ meeting today was to decide what

action to take. It was decided that an attempt to effect a compromise by ironing out I the differences between Mr. Hughes, and Miss Werber, and appointing | some neutral person auditor, would, be made, and word was sent to Miss. Werber's attorneys to this effect. Just what action Miss Werber and | her attorneys will lake in the mat-! ter remains to be seen. The commissioners are avoiding, any political consideration in hand-1 ling the matter. At their sesion ■ Wednesday morning several attorneys I were called in for consultation, and, they were advised in each case that ' Miss Werber has vacated any right she has to the office. The commissioners now take the stand that they are forced to declare the office vacant and appoint some-1 one to the office, and it is their wish | to do this in a manner acceptable to both sides. Should Miss Werbe rand her attorneys decline to talk the situation
