The Nickel Alloys Time of Reading Co. of Unknown. Hyde, Pa.
1. EC: Yes, here we have it here.
2. (Q) [Question not recorded] (A) They will be able to start up in a comparatively short time, but there are many things that these bodies controlling this Company will have to overcome, but as these are overcome, as they will be in a very short time, they will be able to start up, and, as we see it, it will be the last week in May.
3. (Q) [Question not recorded] (A) They will be.
4. (Q) [Question not recorded] (A) They will enter into good working order with this, but it will be some time before it can be expected.
5. (Q) [Question not recorded] (A) Many of these relationships, and conditions under which much better relationships would exist, have been worked out in the plan of the President of the Company and his associates, and as these plans are followed by full co-operation and co-ordination on the basis as has been worked out by these, we will find that it is most satisfactory.
6. (Q) Will this association (that is with the London interests, as above,) be made before the plant starts up, Mr. Cayce? (A) This is one of the situations deferring action on this. Some connections of this Company have attempted to intervene to cause disruptions with these prospective associates, but as we see it the relationship will be established before the operations are begun. As this mode of developing alloy is carried forward, you see, we will have the successful development with some of the London forces, and it will be much better for them and better for Pres. Bassett. Yes, it will be a success.
7. (Q) Will nickel, by this process, be a great good to the economic world, Mr. Cayce? (A) Yes. It will gradually develop and lead to this. We have the right basis and the right principles working together, and we will have a great process worked out.

8. (Q) Will Mr. G. P. Bassett meet with lasting success on April 26th, 1921, Mr. Cayce? (A) Yes, as we have given here. His success will be partly in overcoming the designs of others in the mode and development of this alloy; and where some have attempted, through some underhand channels, to possess themselves of some of the papers which carry the analysis and plans; but they will not be able to use them against the ones that have developed the process. It will be a lasting success, because great good is to come from many of the relationships that will come from these associations and from the products that will be put out.
9. (Q) Are these men, (the names of whom were given individually) the proper ones to be associated with this Company, Mr. Cayce? (A) Some of these will not be associated. There is some division; some pro and some con; some for and against. The connections that will be made through Lloyd will be the ones to be associated with, Mr. G. P. Bassett. You need not have any worry on account of these conditions; it is of course a form of worry but will right itself at the proper time.
10. (Q) Are there any other details, Mr. Cayce? (A) No, these are the lines along which it will develop. The relationships that exist at present in the Company will be changed, and others will be brought in. Just a little later they will overcome this resistance that has presented itself to the President, that is, Mr. Bassett.
11. (Q) Will all this be settled by June 1st, Mr. Cayce? (A) This will be just at the beginning of the operations. The settlement of the entire question will be more gradual; it will not be settled then, but will be settling; and as time goes on the Company will go on as outlined by the President and the Doctor.
12. (Q) Will Webster and Lyons get out of the N.A. Co., Mr. Cayce? (A) Yes, as we have given above, you see. They will be gradually removed from their resistive positions and gradually be relieved of their holdings, or their holdings will be taken over. That is why we will not have a full settlement before June 1st. They will eventually be entirely out of the Company, with only small holding that will come through other ways.
13. (Q) Will Mr. Basett and his family continue to live in Pittsburg, Mr. Cayce. (A) For the present, yes, although later there will be some discussion as to their removing their residence, and perhaps after thought it might be best to do so.
