Time of Reading ... Ave., 11:00 to 11:15 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Va. (Body & Enquiring mind. You will give definite information as to just what he must do in order to get profitable work now, either with others or in making a business for himself. Also give names of firms or individuals who will give me profitable work at this time. Answer questions.)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [462]; this we have had before.
2. As we find, there has been and is a change coming. It has been gradually growing in the desire and in the determinate factors in the inner forces and influences about the body. There is a growth more and more towards self-expression, of self's desire for self's activities, rather than activities in association or conjunction with associates - as working for others. Rather there is the desire to be in association or conjunction with those who would be associated WITH the body.
3. These conditions, as we have indicated, must come to that determination where there would be some activities on the part of the body in making such preparations; in doing then those things that would bring such experiences in the affairs and the experience of the body itself.
4. As to seeking out a boat or a craft for activities, as we find, in those areas that we have indicated that are of the government associations about Quantico there might be made an opportunity for the body to use or re-condition a craft in such a way and manner as to use same for the activities in whatever associations or field determined in and about Norfolk.
5. Or, we might find another shape, another activity, THROUGH an associate of Frank Davis in Gloucester. That, of course, is of a different type, and would have more to do with the fishing craft; but may be re-conditioned also in a manner as to carry on those activities of the body in a satisfactory way and manner - that have become more and more a portion of the body's inner self.

6. To be sure, through those activities about the government areas, necessity demands that there be the re-conditioning to such an extent that it would require some little time. Yet by the middle of the summer it could be in shape where the activities might be carried on in the proper way. This comes through the supply department of the disposition of such crafts from the government, or the Quartermaster Division of disposal of things of such a nature.
7. As to the associations with others that may be had for more IMMEDIATE activities, CHOOSE such an association - as we have indicated; and - well - just go to work!
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) Regarding present associations, which is the best to choose? (A) As indicated, there is more of a growing within self of SELF'S own activities. Hence, as WE find, these two associations - or two connections, where there may be had determinate activity - would prove the best; though for LOCAL activity, for a period while such is being done, choose - as with the Wood Towing, as with the Pilots - and just go to work.
10. (Q) Have made application with the Wood Towing Corporation and (A) (Interrupting) As indicated, it is not a matter of making application - it is a matter of just going on and going to work! Not that it would be at first, "Well, I want so much money for so many days" but "I'm just going out and go to work!" And then it will be given a place. One makes a place by activity, see? Not that one pushes another out. But in such an association, in such an activity - as would be with ANY connection of the kind - one prepares itself for an activity by the actual service. It would be very much in the form of that as when the body first began, but HERE we have the experience, the years, the activities, the associations, that would bring IMMEDIATE SERVICE. But those connections as indicated for self's opportunities are the better. Go to work.
