Time of Reading ... Avenue, 10:45 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. Chicago, Ill.
1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [270], ..., Chicago, Ill., and you will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding this body's relations in a mental, business and financial way.
2. EC: We have the body, the enquiring mind, [270], and those associations and relations respecting the mental, the physical, and the financial conditions of same. These we have had before. Some changes or developments are coming and have come to the body in various directions, and there needs be that the body carry out those suggestions as have been given the body concerning how the body should so fit self in mental attitude and in physical relations with various individuals and groups to bring for self the better understanding in the material and mental relations. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Developments respecting conditions seem to show some improvement. Give information regarding future conduct. (A) There needs be only those precautions, conditions and relations as have been given the body as respecting same. In the specific changes as may be offered the body, these are to be used or applied in the life in the MANNER as has already been outlined for [270].
4. (Q) State fully the real cause of the chaos respecting my employment with the Western Union and my association with Mr. [953]. Is this condition the result of rivalry manifested by others who have influenced him and thereby seek personal gain with increased power to control the destiny of the accounting work in this Division of the Telegraph Co.? (A) This has been given in the variations and concerning this as is outlined here. There has been given that the body should attend to its own portion and affairs and keeping same in such an exemplary manner as that the rivalry or the slight remarks as may be directed to or toward the activities of the body will be only as that as it had not been spoken, in the light of the manner in which the affairs

are attended to. Back talk or counter moves, or paying attention to slight or light remarks, merely magnify the condition - unless there be a real basis for trouble.
5. (Q) Previous readings have indicated offers would be made for transfer to the Eastern office and it was also suggested that I concentrate in that direction. While some discourse has taken place, yet by reason of the organization line-up it is practically impossible for me to do as much as I would like to in that respect. You will therefore state if I shall continue to depend entirely on friends, otherwise what is the best plan to follow, especially since they have suggested that I sit tight in present position and await developments? (A) These are just the conditions as have been pointed out to the body, and that that the more necessity of how and why the body should apply self in the directions as have been given. There are, as seen, many possibilities in the changes as may be offered, and with the increasing OF the varied elements of the combination the body may so apply and so affiliate self with same in a manner that this would advance not only the financial but the executive position of the body. While it is true there are current reports that such combinations are not even being considered at present, this more for the effect to be produced upon holdings for the various companies that would be associated in such a combine than of definite information as to what the outcome of this combine will be. It is known that there are those conditions as respecting governmental activities that would prevent the open culmination of such combines, yet these are being made in a clarified manner that this may be brought about later on. Then, unless there are many more changes, these combines may be expected. The body so fitting self, then, in a manner to meet the needs of the conditions as these arise, would be in the position of holding a much more advanced position than at present, with the combination of Radio, Tel & Tel, and Western Union.
6. (Q) Information has come to me that it might be to my advantage to file an application for employment - (A) This just that as has been given concerning this very condition!
7. (Q) Please give any advice regarding the Press remarks respecting Western Union and Radio merger. (A) This has just been GIVEN!
8. That is all the questions.
9. We are through for the present.
