(Q) Did I make the approach to Ungerleider as suggested by
the Forces, and what will be the outcome?
(A) Partially so, but it has been left entirely open so that
there is nothing as yet BINDING in the conversation. It has
all been left entirely in the air!
There should be, as we have indicated heretofore for the
carrying through of all the associations here, either some
verbal agreement or something in writing; rather than saying,
"Now, I'll do this for you and I'll expect you to help me."
Has there been any answer to it? Not yet!
(Q) When should I bring to Ungerleider's attention that he
made a deal with my people - Bronfman's from Canada - in
which both sides promised to take care of me if deal was made
- and it was made?
(A) When it has been outlined just how this should be
brought; that there is a definite agreement - either verbally
or written - that there will be through this association the
placing of orders or connections in a way that there should
be a certain percent allowed to the body for making the
connections, and INCLUDING in same that which has already
been brought about!
(Q) In what capacity would it be profitable to me to
associate with Sam Ungerleider?
(A) As we have indicated, this depends upon how much time
and how deep the body mentally and physically desires to
engage in this character of activity. If it is to be used
only as a side issue, expect a side issue profit from same.
If it is to be given certain definite times, for certain
activities or agreements for same, then the associations or
connections can be made. But, as we have indicated for the
greater activities in this line, study those things regarding
the distribution and HOW in the various territories!
(Q) What results will I get from my letter to Solomon & Wolf
in reference their handling Ungerleider's products under
private brands?
(A) Provided these are made agreeable, but - as we find -
there has already been some approach through another channel
for this same sort of connection. Going through some other
individual that is a representative of the Distillers,
Incorporated.
(Q) Will I have to return to Chicago to see them or will
they come to N.Y. to meet Ungerleider?
(A) They will come to New York.
(Q) Where best place?
(A) If they come to New York, it'll be the best place in
New York!
(Q) Can and will Jack Lewis actually produce the water
cooler order for me?
(A) As indicated (and this should be looked into by the
body), there have been the appropriations for the handling
of these conditions. Because of a change in the prices that
have been indicated, there is in the mind that this may be
placed elsewhere. Look into it! Will he produce it? If
you make him!
(Q) Is there anything wrong with my plan to go to Washington
and see -
(A) (Interrupting) No.
(Q) What additional advice for me to use in this
presentation?
(A) If you'll use that we have given, it is full and
complete! There must be the indications from the citizenry,
and through the regular channel through which such a position
or condition is granted. It is now a good time, since there
has been the appropriation for not only the opening of those
that have been closed but for just such a situation. If
there has been the provision by those associated with the
body in the vicinity, or in Asheville, that it will fill
those places as indicated, there will be no trouble. If
there hasn't been, you are losing time!
(Q) What changes in proposal made out and in my portfolio
at home?
(A) Just necessary to fill it in just as we have given!
That's how much change!
(Q) Will Peter Rathvon hold the factory proposition open for
me, or has he other ideas for disposal of property?
(A) He hasn't. He has ideas, but there's no disposal.
Depends upon how soon the activities are going into effect.
(Q) Is it better to work with David Goldman or Rathvon or
Edward Weisel?
(A) Rathvon.
(Q) According to present conditions, government situation
and Morris's plans, when will the money be available and the
factory purchased?
(A) WHEN it has been presented in the manner that has been
indicated! You won't get it without it! For it is NECESSARY
that this indication come and be ratified by the regular
channel through which such things go! Going over top of
heads or around corners - well, you meet yourself already
coming back without anything!
(Q) Will Asheville plant be benefited by the new money to
be spent on remodeling of American Homes?
(A) Not so much homes, as the revivifying closed plants.
(Q) Considering all business, am I better off pushing the
Asheville situation and devoting all my time to furniture,
or better to develop liquor business?
(A) Which would you rather be in, the liquor business or the
furniture business? This must be decided within self. If
there is plenty of time given, either one or the other. But
mixing these up, well - they don't exactly mix; because if
one spills on the other, you see what it usually does! And
this is a very good illustration of what happens when they
are mixed together; they don't work! It's true that one may
used in between, until there is the setting up of the other.
But they DO NOT mix together!
(Q) In what way could I be successful by forming an
association with Ralph Jonas?
(A) There's many various channels through which this could
be made very helpful. But many of the things now being
considered would have to be forgotten. Forget it, until
you have decided upon one or the other, or what you are
going to do; except for those things where you act in the
capacity only as one that is carrying out orders for Jonas,
as you have in other associations of the same character and
nature.
(Q) How will I be able to be successful with the patented
screen for attachment with a patented device, to casement
windows?
(A) Get someone else to handle it for you. The best way you
can be successful is to get somebody else to do it! Or be
able to make it in your own plant when you have it!
(Q) Who would be suggested to work this?
(A) Anyone that's in that line of business?
(Q) How large is the market for a screen of this type that
can be sold for about one-fourth of present type casement
screen?
(A) This is how large it may be made to be, by those who are
able to present it. There's sufficient territory!
(Q) How can this be handled as part of Carolina project?
(A) As being made there, as we have indicated.
(Q) Considering Morris & Washington plan, Ralph Jonas
connections with owning company, O. E. Landstrom of
Rockford, Ill., who wants to join me, which plan will be
best and surest for me to follow through for my best
interests and that of my associates? Or best combinations?
(A) Not best in combinations. Choose that which you would
like to do. You have worked so far in the Asheville plan.
Either do it, or get someone of the other and make the
associations and connections in those directions!
(Q) Reference loan on Albert Pick stock, who would be best
person to see at once to get sufficient income to carry on
until something comes through?
(A) Someone in those quarters where this is used as a medium
of exchange or loan valuations. For it would be either in
Cincinnati or Chicago.
(Q) What did Forces have in mind when stating Ungerleider
would aid me to get money and plenty of it in twenty days,
if I saw him?
(A) But it was given as to the provisions as to how and why
this would be done. Have you done so? Not yet! Just to
look at him or talk with him, or say that the plans are
working, that doesn't get anything! You have to present
orders and associations! in such a way and manner as to
bring these! And this could have been done! You've had it
in your hands; what have you done with it!
(Q) Considering loans made to Ike Lande, how can he aid me
now to get sufficient capital to carry on until my business
is re-established?
(A) Using that very thing as the basis for obtaining the
loan to aid in carrying on!
(Q) Why am I seemingly unable to consummate my plans?
(A) Haven't consecrated self, or concentrated in one
direction. You are getting afraid of self.
(Q) What can I do to improve my ability mentally to see some
of my plans work out?
(A) Concentrate on one specific activity. Don't fool self
because of being treated nicely, or on a nice shovel passed
on out, but seeing them active in the way and manner as you
would. How was the first given, "As ye would that men should
do to you, do ye even so to them." Represent things in such
a way and manner that you can go back and pick them up and
they'll look exactly as you left them!
(Q) Have I physically improved?
(A) Much better.
(Q) Should I resume sweats and rubbing?
(A) When they are necessary. But keep the eliminations in
proper order. Be CONSISTENT with it! Taking them two days
in succession and then leaving them off for a month, isn't
very consistent! That's the way the general things have
been handled; too much of self is given in exactly that same
way! Take them once a week for three to four weeks, or once
every two weeks for three or four treatments; and it will be
better!
(Q) What will relieve the smooth taste in my mouth?
(A) Rough it up with persimmons; that'll change it! But the
better will be to follow the line of diet that has been
indicated for the body.
(Q) Should body leave N.Y. soon, and where best for his
health?
(A) If the activities are required in Asheville and
vicinity, to get those conditions in correct position, go
there! If the activities are required in other directions,
go there!
(Q) Am I recovering my equilibrium mentally and spiritually?
How can I further improve my all-round condition?
(A) Sit down for a time and analyze self; look into self;
see what is the trouble; see how the situations have stacked
up with self, from the various associations and connections
that have been made; see what the needs and requirements of
self are. Then take them to thy Maker. Art thou willing to
present all thou hast done to Him and expect Him to pay thee
in thine own coin of what thou hast paid out? Then, you'll
be right!
We are through.
