(Q) As they are set, will the negotiations come to a
successful close for all concerned? especially [
257] and the
Zonite Co. and Mr. Grove?
(A) Eventually, they will come - as is set. There are many
different interests that are to be considered. As has been
given the body, the body should represent self, self's
interests, the same as Grove's interests, so that - that
same element of trust, confidence, may be kept, even in the
close; for there are other conditions, other times and
periods, when these may be associated in other changes as
would come about. Well, then, that these be handled in the
proper way and manner.
(Q) What shall be said to McRoberts at next meeting
Thursday?
(A) That the conditions, (those, so far as they have
been) have been accepted, and the conditions are now ready
for the necessary exchange of the interests as are to be set
forth.
(Q) What shall be said at meeting Friday by Lande to
McRoberts?
(A) The same.
(Q) What should [
257] say over the telephone to Mr. Grove on
Friday, as to acceptance of his offer?
(A) Tell what the conditions are! If they are to be
accepted, accept! If they are to be rejected, reject! Take
them AS they are! as the status quota really exists! Be not
unmindful that these must be handled in an equitable manner
to all concerned.
(Q) Advise [
257] what work he has to do before all final
papers are signed?
(A) To make, as it were, the proper peace and relations
between those offering and those accepting the terms.
(Q) Will [
257] have to go to St. Louis?
(A) As we find, he will.
(Q) When will Grove come to N.Y.?
(A) When they are ready!
(Q) When will all papers be signed for final transfer of
business?
(A) This depends upon those interests as are seen in St.
Louis, and as the negotiations go farther the necessary
changes as will come about will cause some delays, but this
need not hinder from these going forward with the proper
papers and the proper conditions for the transfer and for the
changes.
(Q) Are there any warnings for [
257] to protect him in order
that all conditions will come as advised by the Forces?
(A) Keep in the way and manner as has been outlined. That's
the warning, and that's the protection. Be sure that all
things that are said are able to be met face to face, and be
mindful of the speech, in that respect - so that when met in
ANY condition or surrounding, they [the words] will mean as
near that as is INTENDED to be meant by the body, as is
possible. Let them not have one meaning in the eyes of
McRoberts and another meaning in the mind of Grove, but being
the go-between, to gather interests that are desirous of
obtaining, and interest desirous of a change. Then, MEET
them in the proper way.
(Q) What should [
257] do in reference the commissions with
Grove?
(A) This has been dealt with, and should be handled in that
way and manner.
(Q) How can he get him to agree on the full amount?
(A) Through acting in the way and manner that the body knows
that [
257] is SINCERE, in that the interests are one.
(Q) Should any papers at all be signed immediately by Grove?
(A) The acceptance.
(Q) Any further advice?
(A) Do that. That's plenty to do for the present! We are
through for the present.
