This psychic reading was given by Edgar Cayce at the LaSalle Hotel, Room 901, Chicago, Ill., this 9th day of March, 1928, in accordance with request made by Mr. [900] and Mr. [195].
P R E S E N T
Edgar Cayce; [900], Conductor; [195] (?), Steno [Handwriting looked like that of Mr. [900]''s wife, Mrs. [136]]. [3/9/28 Mr. [900] secured the 4665-2 by questions which he and Mr. [195] formed. The reading was found in Mr. [195]'s folder written in longhand, and the numbered questions written separately on another page in longhand. GD has put the two together in its current typed form.]

Time of Reading 8:30 A. M. Central Standard Time.
1. [900]: [4666]'s telegram states that "new leads and a new drum of enlarged size must be manufactured before machine will work. Will this be necessary? Will the machine run and develop power? Should slack or play be taken up in the cams as given in yesterday's reading? Can this type of fuelless motor be manufactured and put on market at this time, or require too much experiment?"
2. EC: Yes, we have the body and the machine as is being builded by [4666]. [See 4665-1.] As given, the corrections need to be made in the leads for the better operation of same. With these new changes the drum would necessarily need changing or reconstruction of same. This do, with little changes. Always best that [4666], as this is builded, be close under observation of those who would assist in the development of machine, and while the various tests are being made for the perfecting and balancing of same. Do that.
3. Then, a new enlarged drum - not necessarily larger but new, but cams changed as outlined and leads with various sprangles made so charges give the proper connections. Cams changed so that there is not so much play in their rotation.
4. (Q) Will this type motor in time revolutionize the motive power in the world? (A) The feasibility of the machine, as given, is along correct lines. With the revolution this machine will create as a motive power, necessarily much experimentation is necessary, with first the completion of the machine so that the demonstration is satisfactory. Let it furnish, when finished, the nucleus for further experimentation. This should, under supervision of one that keeps [4666] in line, be done in a few weeks.

5. (Q) Would it be well for [195] to go to Birmingham and bring [4666] back to ..., Ohio with him? If so, when best for [195] to go? (A) Let's get the machine built first!
6. (Q) How had [195] best address or take care of Mrs. [1010] in this matter? (A) After [4666] has been made aware of [195)'s association with the development of the motive power, she [Mrs. [1010]] must be satisfied as to the sincerity of purpose in those that would assist [4666].
7. (Q) Regarding [257] - (A) [Interrupting] Well to consider such an one, for through these sources much aid, help may be had for experimentation or development, or in market for connections this body has with many that maintain experimental labs, this in itself would be a motive, considering all things and the friendship and all.
8. We are through for the present.
