1. GC: You will have before you the work on the story for the scenario Uhjltd, a copy of which I hold in my hand. You will please give advice as to proper changes and improvements in preparing this for presentation to Harry M. Goetz of Reliance Pictures, Inc., N.Y. City, as I call the various sections. Please answer the questions which will be asked regarding this.
2. EC: We have the work that has been done in preparing data for scenario - Uhjltd. This, as we find, in the present, with very minor changes, is the form PREFERRED to be presented through this channel. The change, as we find, would be made in having Edssi make statements of the conditions before those gathered with the gathering horde, or groups, and the BLESSING by the priest of Edssi, and the association of same WITH the teacher. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Would there be any change in marriage of Uhjltd's parents? (A) Present, for the present, in this form as given - as with the other sections, the return of Uhjltd - the speech - well. The variations as are seen in the improvement and the building up of the camp. The weaker portion, of course, being in that wherein there is seen Oujida making the preparations for rebellions, yet this may be easily shown by the visualization or picturization of same, as to how Uhjltd gives self more to meditation and relying on a broken stick. In ALL the other sections, we find, it is well presented, and should be acceptable - with this, of course, minor change as given.
4. (Q) Should more detail feature and character descriptions be given in writing this of those people in the story? (A) This sufficient, as we find, in the present, for the visualization of that as is to be presented.
5. (Q) Would it be well to write a separate paper on the ideal to be expressed, pointing out the places to stress this? (A) These present themselves in the order as there is the development and the application of that as is stressed, as is seen in the curing of Uhjltd himself and the realizations

of that as of BEING an expression of that as had been sought by him through trial.
6. (Q) Any other suggestion to the one trying to prepare this? (A) This is very well done. The only change, as given, in Edssi being the spokesman for at least ONE of the gatherings where emissaries are seen from many nations, and the BLESSING of him WITH the teacher in the visit of the priest. Secondary, to be sure - but as a CROWNING of the efforts of Uhjltd in this particular field. Then we would present same directly, when transcribed (but be sure to retain a copy), to Goetz, or Edssi, for consideration.
7. (Q) Should the name Extell for the instructress be changed? (A) More in keeping with a Persian would be well.
8. (Q) Suggest a name. (A) Irenan.
9. (Q) Is Tatil the proper name for this character? (A) Very well. Many of these will be changed, as will be some of the situations - yet, as we find, following along - this should be most successful.
10. That is all the questions.
11. We are through for the present. Copy to H. L. Cayce " " File
