"House of DaUid" LoUe Ritual Leads
To ReneWed Investigation of Cult
Berrien County Prosecuting
Attorney to Probe Life at
Benton Harbor.

BENTON HARBOR, Mich, June
6. - king Benjamin" Purneu. who
hasn't shaved or had a haircut in 20
years, is going to be investigated
again.
Detectives have been shopping
around the House of David. temple
of the Flying Rollers cult of
some 900 followers who live in a
combination religious colony and
amusement park along the shore of
Lake Michigan. just outside of Ben
ton HarbOr.
Other Investigations. By county
and state, are promised within three
months >by Charles W. Gore, prose
cutting attorney of Darien county.
Gore has been spurred to action
by repeated reports of peculiar love
rites I'm the House of David. and by
rumors of mysterious disappearance
of cult members on High Island. a
desolate outpost of the organization
in upper Michigan.
These reports have been persist
ing for years" says Gore. Il be-
lieve the time has arrived when they
should be either proved or disproved
by thorough investigation"
Biames His Enemies.
My enemies are spreading false
reports, as they did formerly" says
King Benjamin" Il am a man OF
God and live according to His
teachings"
Purnell and his wife - she's
queen Mary here-are credited by
their followers with having had a
vision appointing them Gods mes
sengers. They preached that the
end OF the world is near; several
times king Benjamin" was quoted
as having fixed specific dates but
this he denies.
Now King Benjamin" says the
end is coming within % years.
That apparently concerns him less
than the impending Investigations
and the inroads modernism is max
ing on the cUlt-including Jazz and
iapperism.
our colony has endured despite
the SANDERS of myriad enemies. g"
King BENJAMIN. says. but Of late
modernism has done much harm.
Flapperism. Jazz music and similar
curses have hit US hard
These manifestations Of modern
ism have sown seeds Of discomfort in
the hearts Of some members. These
no longer live IN the faith. altl--gh
they do let their hair and boards
grow. But that is not enough.
I'VE are nearing the end Of sin
and crime. Christ is coming again
within the next % years When He
comes every living members ot the
House OF David Will be glorifed. But
they all must live right. eat no meat
work for each other and forget
themselves"
The colony. established in 1903, is
run on communal basis; all mem
bers pool their resources and work
for the common good. They raise
fruit and operate an amusement
park. a vegetarian restaurant and
therapeutic springs. all patronized by
Unbelievers. And they have a long
haired and bearded baseball team.
Marriage formerly was forbidden,
but is fostered now. Bringing chill
dref into the world once was brand
ed sinful. but children no longer
are barred.
