WAR PROPHECY.
(To the Editor.) Sir,- —I should be obliged if you would kindly grant space in your paper, to remind readers that there was a prophecy on the 17th October last, by the British Israelites’ Association, that the next world war was to commence on 28th May, 1928, and was to last for eight years, ceasing on the 16th September 1936. Details were supplied as to the results as affected the Empire. This war, I might point out, is now three days overdue, and it might act as a. warning to credulous people if they made a note of this fact. Such prophecies are undesirable as they tend to keep the people in a continual state of expectation of war, and suspicion of other nations, and the more of them that are disproved the better. People are inclined to forget prophecies which do not come true, unless some such reminder as this is brought to their notice. —Yours etc., C.G. Greymouth.
