Mobilization OF Many
Scientists, Engineers
Proposed By Compton

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-(R-Dr.
Karl T. Compton, scientist and edu-
Gator, today proposed the mobiliza-
ton of a quarter Of a million scien-
lists and engineers and a billion dol
lars annually in capital to take UP
the lag which will follow the "pseu-
do-prosperity'' created by armament
building.
"Guns and planes and tanks, al
though essential now to national
safety, are not withdrawing ma
chines," said DR.. Compton.
National defense orders are only
a stimulant injected into industry's
bloodstream, and the effects of the
stimulant will wear off.
1--WE must prepare now for the
time when the government ceases to
order large quantities of ornaments.
We must originate now the products
and processes which will keep our
assembly lines busy after this emer-
gency."

Record Breaking Peacetime
Total Swelled S2,5S7,O00,
600 For Defense

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-R-The
treasury spent about $500, 900 900
in 1910, the largest amount in my
year since the World war.
Making a calendar year analysis
Treasury figures customarily are
based on a fiscal year ending on
June 30,) officials found that the
years record -breaking peacetime to-
tai was swelled by $2,5S7, 000, 900
worth of defense-a figure likely to
be more than doubled in 1941.
Receipts were 1884, 0O0, 900 last
year. leaving a deficit of 1896, 000,-
900. However, since receipts went up
faster than spending last year, the
deficit was under $4,000, 900 900 in
1889, when spending va $S,938, 00O,-
900 and receipts $4,918, 900, 000.
Figures we're based on a treasury
statement, just completed, of Deem
Der 81, which marked the first half
of the current fiscal year. In the last
half Of 1910, which the bookkeepers
call the first half of the fiscal year,
1871, rapidly amounting defense ex-
penditures were the feature.
On a monthly basis. defense costs
nearly quadrupled. Thus, in January,
the army and navy spent $131, 900, 900.
This pace changed little until the
new fiscal year began on July 1,
when the first of the large spending
for defense took this course:
July, SIT, 291, ISL; August, $780,
251,126; September, s21S,432,482; Oc-
tober, $3.50, 1855, 1853; November, $685.
033,578; December, $459, 878, 1892.
The current budget calls for a $780,
900. 900 setup in defense spending
each month until the middle of 1871
when the monthly cost may reach
$3.50 00, 900.
Early last year, the navy was out
spending the army nearly two to
one. Late in the fall, each service
was spending about the same. In
December, the army spent $3.50, $685.
S05 to the navy's Sis, $13, 027.

T Unless you have faith in God, it will do you no
- good to read further. We wish to explain why
the prediction above is The explanation CAM
not possibly mean anything to woman who
does not sincerely believe in God.
you do have faith let us remind you of fact which
you may have forgotten:
The Bible states that the Prophecies in it were made
by God Himself, and transmitted mankind
through inspired Prophets. God has said the
the Prophets described WILL TAKE PLACE!
Surely, every Christian must believe the Word
Of God!
The plain facts are-any of the Biblical Prophecies
have already come true. AND THE GREATEST
OF THEM ARE BEING FULFILLED NOW!
The prediction about Russia is not of our maxi
ing. 1t comes directly from the Prophecies of
the Holy Bible. 1t is an event which God Him
self has said will occur.
Proofof Aceu,ay
You probably know, if you have read the Bible,
that the Prophecies are seemingly impossible to
derstand. They were designed to be. The Bible says
that men will not understand them until the right
time comes.
THAT TIME IS NOW!
The Proof?
Bible authorities associated with DESTINY Mag.
azne have predicted many events of this War in
advance, basing their predictions what they have
learned from the Prophecies. THESE PREDIC-
'TIONS HAVE COME TRUE!
For example, DESTINY Magazine published pre-
dction of the fall of France in June 1936-nearly4
years in ad1ance. DESTINY published a prediction
pf the 1889 Russian German alliance that precipi-
tated the War in November, 1858 months in
advance. DESTINY published prediction of
Japans attack on the United States and Great Brit
ain in September, 1941-3 months in advance.
All these successful predictions 1vere taken di.
rectly from the Prophecies of the Bible. What
better proof could there be-that the men who
made them understand the Prophecies
THAT THE PROPHECIES APPLY NOW?
Who Will Win The War?

the Bible says will happen. 1t brings its readers
month by month the results of latest researches into
Biblical Prophecy.
DESTINY now is carrying continuing story
of what the Bible reveals about this War and
its aftermath. Already such information as
who will win the War-how, when, and where
has been presented. Already the tremendous
change that will come to everyone after the War
has been described.
But much remains to be told. Many of the Proph.
eces are related to one another; each comes true
it helps cast more light events yet to When
the Russian Betrayal occurs, for example, it will
confirm the time when the War will end.
Please nderstand-DESTINY's authors do not have
any superhuman ability to read the future. Every
bit of their knowledge comes from penetrating study
of the Holy Bible 1t is knowledge open to all men
who will read and study it.
If you have the time and inclination for exhaustive
research, by all means turn to your own Bible and
pore over the Prophecies until you see their real
meanings. You will find the work long and hard
but immensely fascinating, and we'll worth your
while.
But many people today have too many demands on
their energy devote the necessary time and effort
to understanding the Prophecies If you are one of
these-a sincere Believer in God, but without the
time for Bible study-then we invite you to do the
next best thng-Read DESTINY. See what Bible
authorities have discovered about the present-day
significance of the Prophecies.
