Time of Reading 11:15 to 11:20 A. M. Eastern Standard Time.
1. GC: You will have before you a copy of the message which I hold in my hand, received this morning from Hugh Lynn Cayce. Considering the circumstances surrounding all concerned, you will advise whether or not it is best to make this trip at the time designated - and if so, how.

3. Would it not be better to consider the information given respecting the manner and modes of arousing or awakening interest in the work of the Association, as done by or through Edgar Cayce?
4. This was given to those Trustees present at the Reading in November; wherein it was given - and it has been given often - that the approach is to be FIRST to the individual, THEN to the classes or groups or masses! [See 254-96, 11/21/37.]
5. Then, let the individual seeking to make such a connection be PERSONALLY convinced that there IS something worthy OF BEING PRESENTED!
6. And then such approaches will come to mean a great deal more to all concerned!
7. Be a little patient, but be consistent.
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) Then, would it be better for Madame [1553] to come to Virginia Beach as first planned? (A) What has just been said? Whether she is to come, go or what not, let her be first personally convinced! and make an effort for it!
10. We are through for the present. Copy to Hugh Lynn Cayce " " Ass'n file
