What Is Wrong
When Prayer Fails!

Thirty years ago, in Forbidden
Tibet, behind the highest noun
tains in the world, a young Eng
lishman named Edwin j. Dingle
found the answer to this question.
A great mystic opened his eyes.
He realized the strange Power that
knowledge gives.
That Power, he says, can trans
form the life of anyone. Questions,
whatever they are, can be answer
ed. The problems Of health, death,
poverty and wrong, can be solved.
In his own case, he was brought
back to splendid health. He acquir-
ed wealth, too, as we'll as world
WIDE professional recognition.
Thirty years ago, he was sick as
a man could be and live, Once
his coffin was bought. Years of
almost continuous tropical fevers,
broken bones, near blindness, pri-
walton and danger had made a
human wreck of him, physically
and mentally.
He was about to be sent back to
England to die, when a strange
message came - They are wait.
ing TO" you in Tibet" He wants
to tell the whole world what he
learned there. under the guidance
OF the greatest mystic he ever en-

countered during his twenty-one
years in the Far East. He wants
everyone to experience the greater
health and the Power, which there
came to him.
Within ten years, he was able to
retire to this country with a for
tune. He had been honored by
felloWships in the Worlds leading
geographical societies, for his work
as a geographer. And today, 80
years later, he is still so athletic,
capable of so much work, so young
IN appearance, it is hard to believe
he has lived SO long.
AS a first step in their progress
toward the Power that knowledge
gives, Mr.. Dingle wants to send to
readers of this paper a 900-word
treatise. He says the time has
come for it to be released to the
Western World, and offers to send

Tokyo said the attack occurred

Mitscher, master of carrier war;

great carrier task force just as
close to Honshu as before. Stand

aerial assaults against Tokyo and
the surrounding area which spread

Superfortresses had joined in all

week. They appeared over the
burning city while more than 1900
carrier planes still roared over
the area.
There was no hint of the amount
of damage being caused to Japan's
vital naval and military installa
ton.
But it appeared that Japan's
major docks and anchorages were
being singled out for special at
tention in the latest carrier-bone
strike.
Nimitz termed the first carrier
attacks on Tokyo an historic vic
tory and disclosed that 500 Japa-
rese planes were destroyed and
over SO ships destroyed or damaged
in the raids, which caught the en-
envy airforce mapping and were
carried out through weather that
hampered the japanese defenders
An additional 200 to 300 planes
were damaged.
The first two attacks were car
ried out at loss of only 40 planes,
with a loss of from 80 to 40 pilots,
some of whom may have been
picked up by U. S. submarines

Mansfield Children
Will Testify Today in
Mothers 5 Defense
BY the Associated Press.

by the ASSOcldteQ FIeSS.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 3.-A
mother accused of murder will see
her three children for the first time
in two months today when they are
called on to testify in what may
prove to be one of the most dramatic
episodes of Mrs. Annie Irene Mans
feldt's trial.
Attorneys for the 45-year- old San
Francisco socialite persuaded her
last week to allow the children to
take the witness stand.
Irene, Is; John, IA. and Terry
Mansfeldt, II, have had no oppor-
tunity to see their mother since she
was Jailed October after admittedly
shooting Mrs. Vada Martin. So.
Vincent Hatlinan, chief defense
counsel. fears the emotional impact
of their reunion may interfere with
the children's testimony, but
through them he hopes to bolster
his contention Mrs. Mansfeldt was
in a state of "somnolentia" and un-
conscious of her acts in the hours
before Mrs. Martin was slain.
Mrs. Mansfeldt and her counsel
have said that sedatives admins
stored the night of October by
DR.. John H. Mansfeldt left the ac-
cused woman in a daze that lasted
through most of the following day.
The defendant has said repeatedly
she remembers virtually nothing of
the impulses that caused her to seek
out and fatally wound the nurse
she suspected of stealing DR.. Mans
feldt's love.
