3. (Q) Night of Dec. 25 or morning of Dec. 26, 1926. Moe Wallack came in and said Bache & Co. said the market was going to sell down. "Down?" I asked, surprised, for I expected a rising, not falling market, in January. "Down for now, they say," said Moe. Then Ben Block came in and we looked over a big sheet together. "[900]," he said, "You don't hold many stocks, do you?" "No," I replied, "I don't know what stocks to buy. Which ones - which industrial stock shall I buy?" We looked over the sheets, and found one customer named "Crewes" was holding 600 shares of Chicago Nipple stock. "Yes," I said, "He has that but he'll buy 200 shares of Baldwin and sell it out at a profit the same day." Block nodded. I still felt I did not know what to buy or when. Then Ben Block sat down at his desk. A clock giving the "Time" stood behind him and where the pendulum was, a float was rising in water. It rose half way up and stopped there during the period of our conversation. It rose half way up and stopped, then it rose all the way up to the clock's time face and there struck a gong. As it struck Ben Block said: "Now Buy Anything!" (A) In this there is seen the presentation, through the subconscious forces of the entity, that in which the body conscious mind has been delving, through the efforts of the mental consciousness - and, as is seen, in this emblematical way and manner, there are presented those conditions that the entity may study the conditions that are to be given the

entity as regarding the market in the coming year. First there is seen an entity, a body, that tells the entity conditions regarding the market at the present time, that representing an old standard, as it were, to the entity. Then there is seen the entity representing the present, that the entity studies, as it were, the situation with, and in looking over the affairs or conditions there are seen specific conditions, special stocks in which individuals will make special runs, or special conditions arise, being led by individuals - for, as has been given, the new year, with its many variations, will find many conditions arising of an unusual nature, and individuals who have not as yet been known as influences in the stock exchange, and in certain industrials, will make such inroads, such stands, as will cause much consternation among those ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE of such combinations from that individual.
As is seen in that of the Crewes holding, meaning the name - individuals or groups, see? holding certain stocks. Not a special stock, but - as is represented - an industrial of natures that have to do with the central and western portion of country. Then, as is seen, Baldwin meaning or representing that rails are to be as the criterion for industrials in the coming year.
The float that balance within self that is to receive that information for self as pertaining to individual stocks and their variations, and the general trend is as seen - that after the 3rd, see? (the gong sounds three times) after the 3rd, there may be MANY of the industrial and rail, AND oil, that the entity will receive for self information concerning that will bring much means, much goods to the entity. Be careful of anything that would be held over the middle of the year, however. Ready for questions.
4. (Q) What time is here indicated? (A) After the 3rd - gong sounding three times, as seen.
5. (Q) May anything be bought then? (A) Those as are given the entity, as is seen by the float rising and falling - coming to the face after the gong sounding, or coming to the attention or to the consciousness of the entity.
6. (Q) What reference to Crewes and Baldwin stock mean? (A) Crewes that of individuals or groups. Baldwin as given, the criterion in rails, or Baldwin, see? Baldwin being as locomotive - the direction as of rail.
7. We are through for the present.
