1. GC: You will have before you the enquiring mind of [137], of ... Ave., N.Y. City, and the vision* that came to this mind concerning motor, concerning business of self, as well as organization of Ass'n of Nat'l Investigators, Inc. Also you will have body and enquiring mind of [195], present in this room, together with drawings X, Y and Z, being different positions of revolving drum relative to containing tank, held in hand of [195]. You will answer the questions as to vision, as well as to drawing held by [195]. * [The vision that came to [137] was as follows: Two years from the present in a new building at 64 Broadway, to be finished at that time, were three whole floors set aside and used - part of one floor by business organization of Ass'n of Nat'l Investigators, Inc. - balance of space used by [900]-[137] brokerage business - and [195] and [4666] organizations - such as motor subsidiaries and airplane and boat companies.]
2. EC: Yes, we have the bodies, the enquiring mind [137] and the vision as had respecting motor, also the enquiring mind [195] - with the drawing, or drawings, as held in hand, with vision of [137] - also [900] - as respecting motor and changes as regarding developments with same.
3. Now MUCH may be given as respecting the vision. Rather, then, will we give those questions. Ready for questions.
4. (Q) Is this vision correct as to time and to space used in new building? (A) This rather emblematical of the space as would be necessary for the handling of those conditions as would be connected with the development of motor. As is seen, space and place as reference to financial world, as well as for distribution of association with such conditions - or place, space, time, are all relative factors - and this gives to the mind, and to those associated with same, the relative conditions as respecting the magnanimous and enormous space, place, and position this would occupy. As to time, this RELATIVE also.

5. (Q) The drawings X, Y and Z show central position of Drum in relation to central or dividing line of segments of containing tank. Considering the assembly, each has its good and bad points. Would drawing X, having center of Drum coinciding with center and dividing line of containing tank be the most logical assembly? (A) The drawing X here we may have the better relative force as was given in the relation of the angle as necessary. While that in Z offers also the same relative position, but produces such a condition in the first circle of rotation as to bring bad position for the rest of the getting together of the parts necessary. While in Y, these are overcome in part - still they do not give the proper relative forces in gathering, or in the combination. Then X offers the correct position for assembly and of developing the greater power.
6. (Q) Will present 7 inch pinions have to be enlarged to 8 inch so that side of barrel tank will not scrape tank wall in new position? (A) This the information given in why the necessity of the new tank and new tank position and pinions, to prevent this binding.
7. (Q) Should new container tank be made 1/2 inch wider as well as 3 inches greater in diameter than the present container at ... St., Dayton, O.? (A) That is as has been given.
8. (Q) Regarding Hospital [Cayce Hospital, 105th St. - later renumbered 67th St., Virginia Beach] - will well now through one strata to 35 feet have to be put through another strata to 45 feet for best water? [3/7/29 See 254-48, Par. 3-A, 4-A.] (A) This same strata is 35 to 45 feet in the strata. In the lower portion of same would offer the better water, with same cleared or cleaned by the proper pumping. In this relation, as has been given respecting water, this is of a better water than that in the current or surrounding country - better even than the city water; yet there are those elements of conditions surrounding same that will prevent this from being satisfactory. Then, this condition should be thoroughly ironed out, and that necessary change made as to make all satisfactory for the operations; for one already prejudiced against conditions cannot be satisfied with that even presented in a better manner. Then, use waters here outside, and make arrangements for the other to satisfy all conditions, see?
9. (Q) Does this mean it will be necessary to dig another well for drinking water? or connect with city water?
900-434 Page 3
(A) Just as given, there are those that - were twenty wells, even better than this - would not be satisfied without connection with city water. Hence these should be ironed out with those that are handling same. The Forces have given conditions. Give or act in that way as will give the satisfaction to the conditions as surround same. This water, as given, would be satisfactory. This water as is used here will NOT be satisfactory. These are contradictory, yet these would never satisfy some that ARE TO BE SATISFIED, see? Then, use these waters outside and connect for waters that would be satisfactory, for we have an ABUNDANT supply and it will be found there will be times when this will have to be used in the conditions as will come about.
10. (Q) Any other suggestions regarding any of these? (A) As has been given, much may be said concerning the visions as experienced by [137] - though the body has in the greater part interpreted same for self - be sure that same is in a WORKABLE way and manner, for with the various changes and with the various members of firm (nineteen in all) this expansion will bring many, many, different conditions in the lives of all. In the vision as seen by [900] as respecting those interpretations of various theological subjects and the manner in which these are to be given, let the body mentally be guided by the vision - WITHOUT TOO MUCH projection of self, self's interests, in same; keeping ever the first commandment in the forefront of all activity. In the varied conditions as arise, the various forces as would guide and guard the way will present to the body that as is necessary in the next step of development. Will these keep, then, that as is committed unto THEIR care. We are through. Copy to [195] " " [900] " " [137]
