By ALICE ALDEN New York Nov. 23 — Trailing magic. That lias become the career ot' William B. Seabrook, erstwhile hobo, Rotarian, advertisi ing man and newspaper writer. »The famous author of “The Magic I Island,’' the isiok that put Haiti on ' Hie literary map and turned the I spotlights on Voodoo rites, has re-| cently returned from several years in Africa where he lived with cannibals and other savage tribes. And Seabrook is here to tell the I world that gangsters and racketj ’ eers are far more dangerous thail"( cannibals and Voodoo practioners. i He felt far safer in darkest Africa 1 than he now does back home. It is some years now since Sea-1 brook left his newspaper desk to I go adventuring among the strange! peoples of the earth. His back-1 ground was rich. He had been! everything from Rotarian to hobo, | advertising expert, cub reporter! and city editor. The son of a clergyman, lie had early rebelled at' the smooth pattern of the average ‘ existence and putting the smug! tilings of life from him. became al hobo. He worked on farms, did a jail sentence, wore rough clothes, wandered all over Europe avoiding the beaten tracks of tourists and forgot that he had ever been a city editor on an Atlantic paper, it was the glimpse of a beautifully, dressed girl and her admiring escort that made Seabrook realise: that there was something to well-1

ordered life and money after all. Back to America came Seabrook determined to gather for himself some of the material spoils of life., He opened an advertising agency, lived the well-ordered life of a successful business man and then di covered that life was closing in ion him, that happiness still eluded ' him. War became to Seabrook a magic song calling him from the dead sea fruit of life to a more turbulent existence. After the Seabrook returnil to America }and went to work in the office of "ta newspaper syndicate and started to write fantastic fiction. Just when Seabrook was settling i down to a matter-of-fact existence, I a chance meeting changed the tune iof life for him. He became i friendly with an Arab he met in. I his wife’s coffee shop and deter- j ' mined to discover if the mysterious I East did not hold the key to the i puzzle of his vague longings and dreams. Seabrook and his wife went to ! Arabia and he knew from that (visit that he had found his destiny.] Tile study of, magic had become: with him something of an obses-i sion and so he turned to Haiti where the strange religion of t Voodoo flourishes. The Seabrooks made their home in Haiti and the author swept on into the heart of the Haitian jungle where no white [man had ever been before. His I hunger for adventure was appeased. He participated in the

I strange Voodoo rites, was made a brother and learned that there is something in magic that nobody can define. For Seabrook insists that every white man who has lived long enough with primitive people has to come to the decision, be it ever so reluctant, that the powers ot magic are vivid and real, in his sensational book, “The Magic Island,’’ be barely skimmed the sur-, face of the amazing rites of the Haitians. He knows that there are things that would not be believed things that he has witnessed and I even participated in. Trailing magic has given Seabrook an excuse for his wander- : lust. Now he is home from Africa i where lie spent some time on the ' West Coast witli the help and co- ' operation of the French Government. He mingled freely witli the cannibals and partiieipated in many of their ceremonies, cerei mondes every bit as weird and sensational as those of the Voodoo workers of Haiti. After returning from Africa, where he found tli»< annibals to be I quite pleasant fellows, lie is amazed that we should imagine ourselves safe in the sheltering arms ot civilization. It is, he thinks, far kinder to take an enemy for a ride to the stewpot than to torture him and take him I for a ride in the gangster fashion prevalent in our enlightened cities , today.
