Time of Reading 3:40 to 4:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City. (Body and enquiring mind, who seeks information, advice and guidance as to his work, his mental and material affairs. Questions.)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, Dr. [1605]; those conditions mentally and materially, as we find, with which the body is active and to which it seeks reactions.
2. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Shall I try to obtain a new lease at ... Ave. and remodel my office, or shall I locate down town? (A) As there are many things to be considered in these changes and the reactions that would arise from such, we find that it would be much better to maintain or attain a new lease, and remodel in the present environs.
4. (Q) What is hindering the development of the ... Health Institute, which is also located at ... Ave., and which distributes different products of mine like: Reducevac, Pneumostat, Remarol, Footonic, Vapobath, Short Wave, Galvasine, Prostatone, Colexir, Sitz Bath, etc.? (A) This would require a better presentation. As we find, there needs to be one more enthusiastic in presenting the various products of this organization. This as we find is what is lacking. There has been and is being presented data respecting same, but there needs to be one as a distributor - or one who would and does convince those of the professions as to the value of using such products; as other hydrotherapy and electrotherapy activities, see? Hence it would require that there be employed one, as an associate, who has the abilities in these directions.
5. (Q) Which of these products will bring the quickest monetary results? (A) This would depend upon the individual presenting same, and how WELL that individual presenting same is sold on the
1605-1 Page 2
product! ANY of these as we find may be distributed convincingly by one who is himself convinced of their value in the various types or manners of conditions for which they are to be used; whether in the home or institutions or the activities as required in same. Either of these may be made the better. That, then, which offers the greater return for the amounts of the investments (because there are variations in these) would be the one to present or push the faster in the present.
6. (Q) Whom shall I approach who would be willing to invest sufficient money to make the ... Health Institute a successful and profitable business? (A) Anyone that may be convinced of the value of these in therapeutic treatments in institutions or the like. As we find, these will of necessity be sought out through those who are seeking channels for investments.
7. (Q) Will the "Footonic" machine have sufficient consumer acceptance for me to go into production on it? (A) If there is the same manner used, or the same individual would present same, it may make it sufficient for the body to go into production.
8. (Q) Is the Reducevac being introduced properly? (A) As we find, NONE of these are being introduced as well as they might. This is better than some of the others.
9. (Q) Any suggestions regarding it? (A) As we find, we would have the associations with someone efficient in PRESENTING the benefits to be had! Not just for the material gain ONLY, but one who is capable and efficient in presenting same!
10. (Q) Is Mr. J. Jaques, 50 West 72nd St., N.Y.C., the right salesman to sell the most machines? (A) No!
11. (Q) Is there someone else that the Forces could recommend for this job who could get a wider distribution? (A) These must be sought out by their abilities, by their efficiency, by their knowledge OF such in their individual as well as collective usages!
12. (Q) Am I surrounding myself with the associates of help like Mr. J. Drummond, Mr. D. Hodges, Mr. G. King, etc.? (A) Some of these are well, some are not so well. These as we find, though, are much more efficient than Jacques.
13. (Q) Can the Forces make any recommendations as to replacing or adding to these associates that would make
1605-1 Page 3
things work better and smoother? (A) As to replacing or adding to: First, as indicated, have one who is more efficient, better equipped, better acquainted with the channels through which these articles or appliances are to be introduced to the public, as well as to the institutions and to activities that require or need such, see?
14. (Q) Any further advice for the body regarding any of these? (A) As we find, these would be the manners - as we have indicated for the better activities.
15. We are through with this Reading. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file [Note to Mrs. Brown: It has occurred to me that, according to his Life Reading, his personality, etc., [2682] would be the very person for presenting such products of Dr. [1605]. Of course, it may be out of the question to get him...but thought I would suggest it. GD.]
