Time of Reading 3:55 to 4:10 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)
-
EC: Yes, we have the body here. Ready for questions.
-
(Q) Please give him a thorough physical checkup and answer the questions physical and mental. (A) Ask the questions!
-
(Q) What is the condition now of the rectal tract? (A) Still there are indications of the lack of proper healing. And there should be precautions as to the diet, as well as the strenuous activity; else we may produce a very VIOLENT condition, that may become rather serious in its nature.
As we find, the injections of Tim AS an astringent, as well as a healer, would tend to make for the purifying and clarifying of the conditions.
It will be necessary that there be taken liquid and semi-liquid foods until there is little or no flow from same, or irritation when standing or sitting for a long while.
Also it is necessary that Usoline or Russian White Oil be taken to prevent poisons accumulating.
-
(Q) How often should the Oil be taken? (A) At least once or twice a day; depending on the quantity taken. AS we find, two teaspoonsful a day - but one taken in the morning and the other in the evening before retiring - would be preferable to taking a tablespoonful at one time.
-
(Q) What effect will calcium gluconate have on the body? (A) Supplying elements in the blood supply for better coagulation.
But if the calcium as in Calcios would be taken, we find this would be more preferable. Take about as much as would be spread on a cracker once each day, eaten with a meal.
-
(Q) What effect will suppository of tanic acid - 5 grains - have on tissue in rectum? (A) This is very well, but we find - as indicated - this is an astringent without too great a quantity of healing; while it is healing it is not as much so as the Tim, which is an astringent as WELL as a healing. Hence the Tim would be preferable.
-
(Q) What causes pains across back? (A) Lack of healing in the intestinal tract.
-
(Q) What foods should I eat, and what should I not eat? (A) As indicated, liquids and semi-liquids should be taken for the next few days, or until there is NO flow or pain through the area.
-
(Q) Should body plan exercise for August - what is best course? (A) This depends upon how conditions develop as to the conditions in the rectal area, as indicated.
-
(Q) Will body be in a position for a vacation in August or September? (A) It’s better in a position for it now than it will be in the latter part of the month or in September! that is, so far as the needs for same are concerned! As to what the desires are, or as to whether these are in that direction or not depends upon self!
-
(Q) Has mind laid out proper plan for American Furniture sales? (A) These have not been wholly completed, as we find, yet - but the general plan is very well.
-
(Q) Are Morgan Simmons and O.D. Ford satisfied with [257]‘s endeavors? (A) Not satisfied, but they are in accord - and if the body will do as has been indicated, respecting the activities and associations with this organization, the conditions will be bettered.
-
(Q) Should [257] put on Mr. Carl Maesel to sell special department stores and radio accounts? (A) Provided there can be made terms that are satisfactory. As we find, the entity or body is efficient, and quite proficient in some questionable directions.
-
(Q) Has [257] planned the Brunswick [994] sales properly? (A) Very well.
-
(Q) Columbia Broadcasting purchased Brunswick Record - [257] has made a contact with vice president - on what basis can they help one another? (A) Only as would come from those contacts that would be of mutual interests.
-
(Q) Will [994] salesman now at work be able to sell the full quota or will changes be necessary? (A) Given time will sell the full quota. It will not be wholly made in the time set, but almost.
-
(Q) What accounts will [257] have to handle himself? (A) As indicated time and again, where there are the needs of personal attention.
-
(Q) What should [257]‘s work be in this set-up? (A) As indicated, where there is the need of personal attention owing to their close association, or depends upon or confidence in [257].
-
(Q) Should [257] go West this week or next? (A) As indicated, [257] had better take care of the physical conditions FIRST. But if necessary go then next week.
-
(Q) What are the important things to take care of when I go out there? (A) The individual associations and activities in the various sections where activities have been begun and not completed.
-
(Q) What should be said to [994] to show him I desire to keep the business on a high level? (A) That as is in keeping with thy ideas!
-
(Q) What other people do we have to talk to now, in order to keep our plans along lines that have been laid out? (A) All of these have been set, as we find, and are very well done - if the plans are worked.
-
(Q) Should we give up the representation of Portodesk, or should we keep it as an adjunct to our line? (A) It’s very well to keep.
-
(Q) What additions would be made to the Brunswick line that would be more acceptable? (A) These as we find, other than those as indicated heretofore, are very good - if those are carried out; and some have been in part, and some only partially. But if those are carried out we have a very good line.
-
(Q) Should I go to Columbia, Indiana, to see Noblett Sparks on this trip? (A) This would be very well, if the trip is made.
-
(Q) Should we talk to them about representing them nationally? (A) Very well.
-

-
We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 8/3/38 (Wed. night) He wrote: “Please send me a jar and pkg. of Tim.
“It would have been wonderful if we could have had it put up in the Wyeth form - it is a little bullet and one push and it is in. As soon as I get Tim I’ll substitute it for the tannic acid.
“I eat greens, beets, potatoes, soup, lettuce, onions (no raw apples, no cabbage, no celery); little of meat, fish, cheese, bread, ice tea, milk. No liquors. Yesterday and today no blood showed. I’ve been taking Nujol. I’ll change to Usoline. It’s been twenty years since you gave that for me… [He referred 1669-1.]
“Well, I’m up to my last 3 debts now - my old landlord now. So, when these are out of the way, I’ll be o.k.
“It looks as if we’ll be o.k. with Brunswick. Columbia bought the ‘Brunswick Record’ last week. So I’ll try to connect. We feel we are building solidly. We will be free yet, Judge, and our families will have security too while we yet live, with God’s help and blessing…
“I feel better and hope to rid myself of the trouble. I’m not exercising, but must walk a lot and carry a heavy bag - but that’s part of the game.”
R2. 8/16/38 He wrote: “I have started using Tim and I have not seen any blood for the last three days. What I need, of course, is a good rest. I have pains across the top of my back but I guess that is from a draft as it has been terribly warm here.”
R3. 8/18/38 He referred 1668-1, and 1665-1, saying: “I have gotten my debts down under $10,000 now, so with a good season we can begin to see daylight.”
