Introduction

 V V V 

This booklet is the eighth of a series of Prediction Booklets issued annually by theRosicrucian Organization. Each booklet ispublished in the Fall, preceding the year of the predictions. It was to be expected thatthe first issue would be accepted with con-siderable skepticism. However, before theend of 1932, the unusual fulfillment of theprognostications caused the first booklet toreceive such widespread acclaim that it hasbeen necessary to increase the number of copies of subsequent issues by many thou-sands. Hundreds of thousands of these book-lets are now required to fill the demand forthem throughout the world.

The Method of the Predictions

“W ha t goes up must eventually comedown.* This axiom is in the nature of a prediction^and a very sound one, for it is based

upon knowledge, an understanding of thenatural law of gravity. Gra vity is a cause,the effect of which can be predicted with as-surance. A ll through nature, human andotherwise, there exists and manifests a seriesof laws which, as causes, produce depend-able and known results. The astronomer canpredict an eclipse with accuracy. The phy-sician can also presage, with certainty, theeffect on a human heart that is subject to

constant exertion. These and many othercommon specialized forms of prediction arebased not upon supernatural powers, con-ecture, or superstition, but upon a knowl-

edge of causes, and the effects which mustfollow them. Most of the causes do not occurhaphazardly, but recur according to cyclesand according to a periodicity that can bemathematically and scientifically ascertained.Cycles and periodicity are well known not

only in chemistry, physics, and music, but inmany other sciences. There is also a periodi-city to human and economic affairs, whichis equally remarkable in its dependability.Once it is carefully analyzed and studied,the effects, the trends, and the tendencies of men and nations can be predicted with as-tounding accuracy.

For years, the Rosicrucians (not a religiousorganization) in Europe have made suchgraphs and charts of human and economictendencies. These annual prediction bookletsare a summary of what such charts andgraphs indicate for the succeeding year. Theirwidespread acceptance is due simply to the

fact that their percentage of error has beeness than ten percent, and even this slight

error is partly due perhaps to the unavoid-able element of the human equation in pre-paring them. The booklets are further notedfor their freedom from prejudice, bias, andattempts at influencing the reader towardany particular view.  Na tural ly the manner  n which these prediction booklets are pre-

pared precludes any consideration or use 

age Four

of such methods as Astrology, Numerology,  Necromancy , or any of the other past or pres-ent systems of fortune telling or superstitious 

 practices.The predictions are strictly an interpreta-

tion of the charts and graphs made by theRosicrucians in Europe and DO NOT con-stitute the personal opinion or views of any one indiv idual. The booklets are issued by the Rosicrucian Order solely for humanita-

rian reasons*—the enlightenment and benefitthey may afford the reader and the public atlarge. They are never sold, nor are the chartsor graphs from which they are prepared.

Date of Publication

The material for this booklet was dictatedduring the week of September 12, 1938, andfinally prepared for printing the second weekof October, 1938, which is from four to four-teen months in advance of the time of thepredicted events. The graphs upon whichthe material is based were subject to exam-ination as early as the months of February and March of 1938. It is expected that this

manuscript will be in booklet form and dis-tributed early in November of 1938.

N O T E: AH or part of the matter containedin this copyrighted pamphlet may be repub-lished or quoted, providing explanation isgiven that it is taken from a brochure of prophecies published annually by the

A t t h e time these notes are being preparedand made ready for public release, the

whole world is anticipating a great war in

Europe. A t this very moment, a definite day and hour has been set in connection with cer-tain ultimatums and it appears that war isinevitable if we are to believe the headlinesin the newspapers. In fact, today, Septemberfifteenth, it appears that a great internationalwar wi ll involve all of Europe, much of A sia,and certainly the United States of America.But before these notes can be properly setinto type and this pamphlet issued, the like-lihood is, and the indications are, that thepresent ultimatum will be passed and thatonce more another move on the world scheckerboard will be made and a counter-move made, and all of the present indications

as given in the newspapers will be complete-ly upset.

For there is a great game of internationalcheckers being played in Europe that is asdifferent in many respects from all otherchecker games as anything could be, and yetthere are many points of similarity.

In this international game of checkers,however, there are not just two persons play-ing, each making his successive moves and

Page Six

trying to stalemate or overcome the other,but there are a score of players, hidden, re-

 vealed, and public ly identified. There aretwo or three prominent players who appearto be making the principal moves on thecheckerboard, but from hour to hour invisible 

 players, seemingly moving invisible or in-tangible hands, move the very definite check-ers from place to place, completely upsettingthe game and causing the principal players

to change their plays.Invisible Players

This game of checkers with many invisibleplayers constantly changing the aspect of thegame will continue for a number of months.In fact, only the most preliminary moves willbe made during the latter part of 1938. By the beginning of 1939, the checker players

 will have exhausted all of their preliminary moves and will have ferreted out the schemesand plans of the other almost invisible play-ers who are interfering with their games.From January, 1939, onward throughout the

 year, the checker game will settle down to a

 very slow and studious game, with occasion-al spasmodic moves and highly excitingchanges of positions of the checkers on thecheckerboard, alternately inflaming the worldand offering to the public at large the hopesof peace, tranquillity and settlement.

 A Cosmic Cause of Unrest

Perhaps it may be well to state that theprincipal reason for all of the turmoil, rest

essness, desire for war and peace, arbitrationand settlement, dispute and contest, nationalprotest, the shifting of ideals and responsi-bilities, the quickly awakening desire andspirit for bloodshed and military activity inplace of the long desired peace and the de-termination to take matters into individualhands on the part of civilians of the country,rather than leaving matters to their chiefs ordictators, is due to the same cause w hi ch is

responsible for the inevitable strange winds,storms, floods, hurricanes and other manifes-tations of nature. A ll of these things*—'includ-ng strikes and labor protests and restlessnessn political parties^are due to the strange,

though long expected, abundance of sun-spots on our great solar disk. These sunspotshave a particular effect upon the nervous,mental and emotional functionings of thehuman race throughout the world and causesuch an intense degree of restlessness andunrest, and inexpressible desires and domi-nating emotional reactions, as to cause mani-festations in many ways throughout the hu-man body, as well as in nature s forces and

operations. A t times during the last month or two of 

1938, and during the early months of 1939,more countries will be involved in this upsetand unsettled condition and the preparationfor wa r and the insistence upon war andthe seemingly equal insistence upon peacefulsettlements and the lack of bloodshed*—thanwe have ever witnessed in the last hundredyears.

The United States

 f I *HE reason for so many unknown elementsin this international checker game, and

the participation of so many almost invisibleplayers, is due to the fact that, during the lastten to fifteen years, the countries in Europe^and this should include also the countriesin the Western World and especially theUnited States ^ have been making secretpacts and agreements, one with another,until each major player in the game has totake into consideration the demands, requestsand solicitations of these countries with

 which they have these secret agreements. Forthis reason, many countries which would notactually be involved in a physical, military sense in any international war would be in-

 volved financially, morally and spiritually because of their agreements.

E C O N O M I C O U T L O O K

Fortunately for the United States and the Western W or ld countries, there wi ll not bedrastic effects produced upon them in eco-nomic matters by any sizable war takingplace in Europe, Asia or internationally. Infact the United States, Canada and Mexico

 will survive any heavy and drastic economiceffects, and monetary matters will not be asseverely affected in any new international

 war as they were affected by the last great

W orld W ar . This is due to two facts: First,he United States and other western coun-ries are better stabilized and better preparedo meet such economic and financial changess may threaten them; secondly, the peoplesf these countries are better prepared, withoresight and expectations, to meet thismergency. For this reason, too, businessesn most staple lines in America will not bes seriously affected by a new international

W or ld W ar as they were in the past war. A s we stated in our booklet for 1938, busi-

ness in the United States has continuedalong certain lines to increase and prosperdespite the upset economic conditions andhe troubles between labor and capital.

There will continue to be a growth, devel-opment and advancement of business inconnection with automobiles, air condi-tioning, refrigeration, and scientific prod-ucts of various kinds.

Exports w ill continue to improve, andthere will not be the drastic recessions ordepressions in that line that might havebeen expected with an international warin the background.

• The aviation and automobile industries will notice a considerable increase in theirexport volume.

• Steel and grain exports will also advance.

• The copper industry will show signs of rejuvenation.

• The motion picture industry will continueto lose ground in foreign markets as strict-

Page Ten

er censorship of what is termed “Ameri-can propaganda” will ban American films.

• The railroads will seek release from strictprovisions of franchises governing pas-senger services and also some will makeovertures for outright government pur-chase of their interests 'to prevent theircomplete ruination.

• Individual investors in homes and apart-ment properties for rent will protest thecontinuation of Federal Housing Admin-istration activities as unfair competition.

C A P I T A L A N D L A B O R  

The principal trouble that will be experi-enced by the United States in regard to itsbusiness and economics, will be as a resultof the restlessness and agitation on the partof both labor and capital.

• The unemployment situation in the UnitedStates will continue to be a big problem,and the lack of production in some linesand the lack of systematic and timely pro-duction in many other lines will give

business a bigger problem than will any international war.

• The continued contest between labor andcapital will gradually cause an uprisingamong the consumer class which will de-mand that the governments revise theirlaws of legislation and give consideration,first of all, to the consumer.

• During 1939 labor, as an organized sys-tem in the United States and some other

parts of the world, will lose some of itspower and some of its legalized protection.

P O L I T I C A L A S P E C T S

In the United States there will be a grow-ing unrest and desire for a very definitechange in the form of political control.President Roosevelt, for instance, will con-tinue to grow more popular with certainelements and a certain portion of the Ameri-

can public, but will likewise become moreunpopular and dissatisfying to another very large portion of the public, and he will haveduring 1939, and especially during the early part of the year, many discouraging setbacksin his plans and discouraging results fromhis efforts to control and direct state anddistrict politics.

• There will be many surprising incidentsin connection with political maneuversduring 1959, upsetting the platforms of the several long established political par-ties and resulting in improved conditions.

• Taxes and governmental expenses willcontinue high for a number of years >despite the changes that are inevitable inpolitical matters. ,

• The continuation of taxes long after theplans which brought them about havebeen abandoned, or have ceased, willcause, during the last part of 1939, a pub-lic disfavor of new fantastic bills offeringold age pensions and unemployment relief.

Canada

P O L I T I C A L

Before the end of 1939 Canada will very definitely announce to Great Britain the partshe will play in any European conflict in

 which England is involved. She will declareher loyalty to England in any conflict whichthreatens the security of the Empire,  pr ov id-

ing England has not brought the conditionupon herself. She will make it known thatshe will not side with England in any polit-ical move which might jeopardize her peace.

England’s apparent diffidence towards Japan s aggression in the Far East and thesubsequent threat therefore to the security of the Pacific powers will cause Canada and

 Austra lia to trust their future safety to agreat extent in the naval strength of theUnited States. This will cause a continua-tion of the excellent relationships that nowexist between Canada and the United States.

E C O N O M I C

• Cana dian Pacific seaports will thrive onthe labor disputes that tie up AmericanPacific Coast ports. Canad ian shipping

 will feel a big impetus in the Spring of 1939

• Tariff arrangements between Canada andthe United States will greatly changeduring 1939, to the mutual benefit of bothcountries, and the detriment of GreatBritain.

Great Britain

There will continue to be the dispute andunrest about the controlling power over theMediterranean and its surrounding shores.Great Britain, France and Italy are the prin-cipal countries desiring to have dominanceover the Mediterranean, and this desire willbe in the back of the minds of all thosecountries embroiled in any conflict that may 

seem to be concerned only with internalboundaries.

P O L I T I C A L

• Gre at Britain, during the late summer orearly fall of 1939, will be forced to makethe decision as to whether to plunge theempire into a great war to preserve Britishprestige, which is waning throughout the

 world, or seek peace at a sacrifice of herposition as a leading power. This decision

 will cause much unrest throughout theEmpire.

E C O N O M I C

• The heavy importations of materials from

United States by the European powers, inpreparation for the eventual international

 war, will become a boon to British ship-ping. British ships will haul more ton-nage in 1939 than in the past ten years.

 Am erica’ s decision, during 1939, not totry to recapture her former place in themercantile shipping world, will furtherstimulate British shipping, which willbeneficially affect all allied industries.

• In Palestine and Egypt there will be con-siderable strengthening of the govern-ments and governmental control, althoughthere will be occasional outbreaks spot-ting the chart of 1939 with blood.

• Englan d will finally not capitulate to the Ara bs’ demands, but recognize the justiceof certain of their claims and seek to re-

strict immigration of the Jews to an an-nual quota basis.

• There will come to the front, especially inEgypt, certain secret alliances and organi-zations that will help the King of Egyptand the Parliament of Great Britain toachieve many peaceful arrangements andagreements.

Germany 

There is no question about the fact thatGermany will increase its territory and in-crease its control over certain countries thathave been more or less independent, or more

or less separated from absolute German dic-tatorship. On the other hand, many countriesof Europe^and even of Asia*—fearful of thisaggrandizement of the German empire, willtake steps to prevent an expansion that may include countries under their direction orcontrol: thus even Russia, Poland andother countries not primarily involved in thepresent conflict will gradually enter thecontest.

The major portion of the German popula-tion of Europe desires expansion and thereturn to them of certain lands, territoriesand districts that were taken away from themby former peace agreements. Furthermore,this restlessness on their part plainly indi-cates that they will expand and are deter-mined to reach northward to the North Seaand southward toward the Adriatic and theMediterranean and eastward to the Ukraine.

S O C I A L

• There is going to be considerable restless-ness among the German peoples, andmuch resistance against plunging the en-tire population into needless wars . An d

 while there is a large portion of the G er -man public organized into fighting squads,and contestants wave and cheer their war-like leaders, these organized contestantsdo not represent the major portion of theGerman peoples.

• 1Q39 will see the crisis of Hitler’s power

as a dictator. He wi ll be compelled tosubmit to demands of the united democra-cies and their allies rather than venturean immediate war which would absolute-ly destroy his power and Germany. Thepopulace^which as a whole thinks himinvincible in statesmanship as well as in

 w ar ^w il l perceive a weakness which wi llbe seized upon by his opponents in hisown country.

R A C I A L

The racial problem throughout the world will continue to grow during 1939 just as will the unrest between labor and capital.

The Jews, for instance, will find the per-secution of their race and nation as greata problem as it has been in recent years,

 yet will have the satisfaction of realizingand seeing that some of the countries which

have been leaders in this form of perse-cution, particularly Germany, will begin toreap some form of regret which will cause areaction and which will considerably softentheir antagonistic attitude.

E C O N O M I C S

• Germany w ill lose her place rapidly in1939 as an exporter of manufacturedgoods. T wo conditions wi ll contribute tothis:

a. South America, her biggest market, will set up tariff barriers against herin retaliation for her subversive ac-tivities in the principal countries of 

that continent.b. The concentration of all lines of in-

dustry upon the manufacture of arm-aments and war preparation.

France

France will continue to be quite unsettledthroughout 1939 because of interior and na-tional problems of an economic, labor andsocial nature; but its people will also be in

fluenced by the fear of losing some of itsland and territory to those nations which

 years ago lost some of their territory. They  wi ll be fearful that those nations wi ll at-tempt to reclaim such lost territory.

For this reason France and certain of thecountries of Europe will be inclined to sur-render, to arbitrate, or to voluntarily secedeor give in to the demands of other nations,thinking that this matter of surrender and ac-

ceptance of dictated terms will end the dis-pute and still keep peace among the peoples.

P O L I T I C A L• The French colonial troops will have a

number of clashes with Fran ce s Islamicpeoples. The Ara bs of Syria in particular

 will defy the French mandate and 1939 will be marked by several bloody clashes,such as the British now experience inPalestine.

E C O N O M I C• France w ill be forced to increase her

petroleum imports as her colonial produc-tion will be hampered by native uprisingsin such colonies.

• Home production will fall far behind con-sumption due to severe paralyzing strikes

 which will compel France to buy in out-side markets, and her gold reserve will de-crease rapidly, causing a severe weaken-ing of the franc.

Italy 

1939 will prove Mussolini a very shrewdstatesman, as well as dictator and war lord.

Page Eighteen

By a series of political coups, he has forcedItaly upward from a nation catering to tour-ists, to a leading power in the world. He hascompelled the world to respect it. He willnot intentionally provoke war, but will usethe influence of his might to gain economicconcessions from England, France, and evenGermany.

E C O N O M I C

• On the promise to keep peace in the

Mediterranian, Mussolini will secure fromEngland favorable trade agreements formarkets in Egypt, Palestine, and particu-larly India.

• France will be compelled to lessen her op-position to Italian goods and admit themmore freely in the homeland and in hercolonies.

• Germany, fearful that the GermanItalianaxis may give way to the overtures madeto Italy by England, will agree not tocompete with Italy in certain worldmarkets.

• Italy generally wil l see a greater rise of prosperity in the Fall of 1939 than shehas experienced in years.

P O L I T I C A L• Italy, as she becomes more economically 

sound in late 1939, will gradually pullaway from close and dangerous alliances

 with Germany.

R A C I A L P R O B L E M S• Italy will lessen, to the point of abolition,

her restrictions on Jews in the Fall of

1939 This lessening of restrictions willparallel her economic rise. She will de-clare that her object was to prevent thetemporary control of her new industriesby Jewish capital.

Europe In General

Several of the great political leaders of Europe dictating its nations’ policies andforcing its national civilians into complex

situations will lose their preeminence, losetheir power, or lose their positions, for thechart indicates that they will be dethronedfrom their ability or opportunity or means of arbitrarily forcing fictitious or unimportantissues into international consideration.

The Semitic races and their derivationswill in 1939 begin a definite campaign forthe uniting of their peoples throughout theworld against the other races which com-prise the bulk of population in Europe andAmerica. The Semitic races and their off-spring include the Jews, as well as theArabs and Kurds. Th ey will cast aside na-

tional allegiances and recognize instead thegreater bond of racial preservation. TheArabs, who in ancient and prehistorictimes were from the same stock as the Jews,to the amazement of the rest of the worldwill suddenly put into the background theirreligious differences to support the Jewsagainst what they will consider a commonenemy. These Islamic peoples will respectno boundary where they feel their kind are

being persecuted. The two oppressed peoples,the Jews and the Arabs, will be forced intoa common accord. Their aggression and agi-tation will spread, and demands will bemade upon the nations of the world forlands in which they can dwell and governthemselves, free from the interference andinfluence of other races and powers. U lti -mately, and not long after 1939, the Asiaticpowers, such as Japan and sections of the

new China, will make overtures to theSemitics to support them in a united racial

 war against the rest of the world. TheSemitic peoples will refuse to collaborate;and consequently, civilization will find itself once again, as in centuries past, torn be-tween three great fundamental races of people, each seeking world dominion.

RELIGION

Religion will continue in restless state with many changes in doctrines and ac-cepted ideas, and a continuing adjustmentof the churches to meet the rising con-sciousness of the public.

® The churches, fearful of arousing the wrath of dictator powers against them, will order ecclesiastical authorities to de-sist from all political activities and coun-sel. 1939 will see a greater breachthroughout the world between the churchand political power than has ever existedin modern times.

• This lessening of political activities on thepart of organized religion will, to the

amazement of the church, increase itsmembership.

Latin America

 A united opposition throughout LatinAm erica toward the attempts of Europeanpowers to gain economic control of theirnatural resources will make itself very defi-nitely felt in 1939. The governments of thecountries comprising Latin America willrealize that their previous encouragement of European capital to invest in their respectivecountries has given these European powersthe opportunity to dominate domestic enter-prises to the detriment of their own nationals.

P O L I T I C A L

• Further laws definitely restricting the im-migration of certain European peoples and As iatics will be enacted by the Go vern-ments of Brazil and Argentina, as well asMexico.

• Government restriction of the amount of stock to be held in their major enterprises,

by foreign interests, will be enacted dur-ing the latter half of 1939.

• Leniency toward foreign groups will becurbed when exposes early in 1939 willshow that these groups are heavily fi-nanced by European and Asiatic powers.

• Greater confidence in and reliance uponthe United States as a good neighbor willbe displayed in Latin America during the

Page Twenty-two

---------------- --- ---------------

latter part of 1939, when the UnitedStates will have proven in several in-stances that she will not stand idly by and see the sovereignty of Latin Americancountries invaded by European powers.

E C O N O M I C

• Brazil will buy more from the UnitedStates and less from Germany, as their

relations continue strained.

• The establishment of better relationshipsbetween the Latin American countriesand the United States will bring aboutan increase of trade between the powers,and late in 1939 business and employ-ment will be considerably improved in theLatin American countries generally.

• 1 he exports of rubber, copper, hardwoods,coffee, petroleum, and ore will be stimu-lated tremendously in the Latin AmericanCountries in 1939.

E D U C A T I O N

• Two Latin American countries will startlethe world in the first part of 1939 withrevolutionizing inventions in manufactur-ing and communication, which inventions

 will focus the world s attention on therapid and yet quiet advancement thesecountries have been making in the techni-cal and scientific fields in the last decade.

7k  > ¥os t persons never realize that they arebeing driven until they feel the sting of 

the lash. During the last decade, humanity throughout the world has been more herded,

regimented, and cajoled into doing thingsthat were primarily for the benefit of certainminority interests than at any other time dur-ing the century. Because of the natural re-luctance of the average man and woman tothink for themselves, their lives and mode of living, their education, entertainment, andeven their religion, have been fashioned forthem by interests which did not have theirwelfare at heart. The individual has beentold whom to hate, whose friendship to culti-vate, whom to put in public office, whatpolitical theories are right and what arewrong. He has been prevented from readingor listening to the other side of issues, or has

been told that there is but one side. So longas he was kept ignorant of the other side of an issue, he was content to accept what wasgiven him at its prima facie value and seekno further.

This passivity on the part of the individualencouraged selfish powers to gain furthercontrol of his rights, and to shape the courseof his life as they wished. These interestsencroached further and further, even invad

ing the sanctity of the individual s home,prohibiting him from doing this or that, sup-pressing one liberty after another, which in-terfered with the ends which these interestssought. The individual H A S N O W becomeaware of the fact that selfexpression and theexercise ol his natural choice is being ham-pered by these interests which, for com-mercial or political reasons, seek to restricthim. Bu t the individual finds it difficult to

retaliate; for so long has he been a depend-ent, looked for support and guidance fromsources outside of himself, that now when hedesires to rely solely upon his o w t i   resources,he finds himself floundering, wanting free-dom but lacking in resourcefulness and de-pendable sources of information and guid-ance to which he can turn.

Millions to Seek Method for 

Personal Development

1939 will therefore find millions turningtheir thoughts inward, seeking within theirown mental selves the solutions to the prob-

lems and the answers to the questions with which they find themselves beset. Th ey willfind it necessary to plan, to create, and torely on their own inherent faculties.  Mill ion s during w ill consequently seek methodsand systems of selfdevelopment, and per-sonal evolution that will make of them sep-arate factors in the world, instead of seg-ments of a great, merciless, economic andpolitical machine.
