1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer any questions which may be asked regarding his condition, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. As we find, the weaknesses - which are produced from the effect of the activities and the administrations to the body - arise from the lack of the ability of the assimilated forces to be distributed through the system to strengthen the body.
4. Rather than interfering with those present administrations given, we would advise that there be added the use of the Ultra-Violet as a MEANS of producing a better coordination between the superficial and the deeper circulation. This would be most effective. This should be given about a minute or a minute and a half, at least every other day. In giving the Ultra-Violet, we would use the Mercury Quartz Light, rather than just the Carbon Light.
5. Once in a week, as we find, the Infra-Red Ray would be well - or that as will heat, or be the more or deeper piercing to the structural portions; and this given for thirty minutes once a week would be the most beneficial, - as combined with the other applications.
6. These we would do - and with the considerations as given to the food values, as they are administered.
7. Combined with these, we would give the Beef JUICES. Not the beef itself, but the JUICES. This would make for the better conditions for this body. Use no fats in preparing same. Let this be just SIPPED. Half a teaspoonful, or less, would be sufficient; given as medicine, every twenty minutes.
8. The strain upon the blood system may require that there be a transfusion, but if a sip of the Beef Juice is given

about every twenty minutes, this we find should NOT become necessary - unless there are further sinking spells.
9. Do that.
10. Ready for questions.
11. We are through with this reading. Two copies to Mr. [437] - Phoned also - Air Mail, Special Copy to Ass'n file (GD's notes at the time of the reading: See directions [which were enclosed] for preparing Pure Beef Juice. At your convenience we would appreciate a history of this case to the time of obtaining the reading. This is valuable for our files.) .)
