Spiritualism attacked by lecturer at Shubert Garrick Theater
The Americas expeditionary forces report a speech by Carlyle B Haynes who called spiritualism a fraud and an abomination before God. He argued mediums lack supernatural knowledge, citing biblical prohibitions, and warned adherents to change beliefs. He added a quip that mediums with future knowledge could win big in stock markets. He conceded some spiritualists are honest but said most do not understand what they are dealing with.
