CONDITIONS IN 1940.
INTERESTING FORECAST,
Received January 5, 8.30 a.m. LONDON, Jan. 4. “In 1940 it will be possible for a man to control the sex of his children and supply from an incubated muscle any detects arising during life,” writes Sir Richard Gregory, author of numerous publications on scientific subjects, in forecasting for the Daily Mail processes whereby he plans to convert inorganic substances into foods. Instead of gross feeding a concentrated product from the laboratory will maintain the body. Through electric stimulus to the brain the deaf will hear and the blind see.
Organic chemistry will produce new textiles, competing with cotton and wool.
