36 TO HOLD 90-DAY FAST IN COLORADO George Huntley Aron and Followers Seek Clairvoy* ancy to Reveal ‘Truths.’ llu VHi ted Pass CHICAGO. July 22.—Seeking new “truths" and “re-education" of their minds, George Huntley Aron, selfhailcd leader of the World-Wide Fasting Clubs, and thirty-five followers were to leave here today for a ninety-day fast in the wilderness in Colorado. The truth seekers are bound for a forest-circled lake, eight miles from Peaceful Valley, Colo., and twenty miles from the nearest railroad station. There the members will stake out individual quarters on the border of the lake and begin their fasting. Dr. Aron says fasting accomplishes the hypnotising and re-edu-cation of the .subconscious mind and that during the ninety days he and a number of his converts expect to become clairvoyant and to reveal many important truths. The leader, who claims six college degrees and four diplomas, is 36. He grew rich, he says, making patent medicines. He contends he has had four previous incarnations. vis first as a savage; his second as a high priest of the Jews, who permitted the Romans and pagans to capture the torch, “there by Judaizing both"; his third as an American Indian chieftain battling for his quaw. and his fourth as Gutenberg. He declares his present life is his “greatest." Dr. Aron told his followers he had twelve qualifications for the job of heading the world's fasting expedition.

WHITE HOUSE HOPES DENIES GY ROOSEVELT New York Governor Say? He Is Not Candidate for President. Ihj I iiitrit Pi • >x HYDE PARK. N. Y.. July 22 Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York considers his position a “mans sized job.” and has announced "I am not a candidate for President." The executive made the announcement prior to departure on the second leg of his “good will” tour of the state, and added that his office took all his time and prohibited him from indulging in "purely speculative matters which do not concern the slate." Asked whether his announcement included a renunciation of national candidacy in the future. Governor Rocsevelt replied: “I am not going, to dwell on matters so many years ahead.” Four reccn' acts of Governor Roosevelt have been considered in some quarters as signifying his intention to reck the highest elective office—his “trust busting" speech at Tammany hall on July 4: his refusal to state his position as Governor on the all-American ship cr.nai for the Great Lakes through New York: his appeal to the nation for a nation-wide better health crusade. and his failure to take sides in the wet-dry debate on prohibition enforcement at the recent conference of Governors.
