(Q) The invention of the static eliminator was given through
the channel of Mr. [[
317]'s writing] with the purpose of
founding a new school by sale of same. Have we the right
to believe that this invention will be a means of fulfilling
that purpose?
(A) A right to believe that the basis of that which is
presented through the channel of [
317] will make for the
means for founding, sustaining, a school - of any
proportions. For, as indicated through these channels
respecting the purposes, the desires and the abilities, both
from the spiritual and material standpoint, of [
317] and
associates (which should not be left out - [wife 267]), their
desires and developments have been such that they MERIT much
of that which may come to them through their efforts in many
channels to be of a service to their fellow man. And he that
would aid them in fulfilling that purpose whereunto they as
individuals have been called, will bring for them and for
himself the blessings not only of the GOOD that may be
accomplished through such a channel but bring to many another
individual the pleasures, joys, that may redown [redound?] to
honor and glory to such an individual.
As to the channels through which information may come for
the perfecting of such an arrangement or such a machine (for
it may be called such), as to eliminate static forces from
the reception through radio activities, these channels are
seeking ever to aid these individuals - and much has been
promised them. And they that aid in such will bring to
themselves and to others much in obligation, much in a duty,
much in opportunity, much in liability, much in joy, much in
knowing that they themselves become channels that are not
only bringing to the individuals the opportunity for their
own development but to selves also.
So, seek and ye shall find. For, while there will be
required much patience, much persistence in the perfecting
of same, as WE find, it will come SUDDENLY - and surely.
(Q) What channels should be sought through [[
317]'s writing]
for this information?
(A) How that the preparation of those properties that act
as the agent for the elimination of this disturbing force,
and through those channels that present themselves in the
various activities of [
317] IN receiving such. And let
this be tested ever IN the name of the Master.
(Q) Should any names be asked for in seeking through this
channel?
(A) Rather the names that aid in supplying do so in the
name of the Master.
(Q) Whom should we seek to help in experimenting with this
eliminator?
(A) There may be several channels chosen. As we would find,
however, the better and more perfect connection, more
reliable connection, may be made with the experimental
stations or associations of the late Thomas A. Edison [Thomas
Alva Edison - 1847-1931] - and you'll have some of his better
self in same!
(Q) Name individual to be approached in this institution?
(A) Through the regular channels would be the better way
and manner. And trust and know if all the OTHER things or
conditions are adhered to, the correct ones will be drawn to
aid in this association and in this connection.
(Q) Should my associates in this connection be trusted with
the full details of its origin?
(A) They should.
(Q) Are there any patents now in existence which cover the
theory of this invention, or that will prevent our patenting
same?
(A) None. In covering such patents for such eliminators,
many ideas HAVE been presented. NONE that carry this
feature. And this is a line that should not be left out of
the application for patent: A means of eliminating the
static BY and THROUGH CONTROL and evacuation or eviction
(either word may be used) through the mechanical means. See?
For, it is not only to be gathered together by the particles
that must run (which will be verified by the information from
[
317] see?) rather as threads through the eradicator, or the
form in which the elimination and destroying of the effect
that is carried into the radio.
(Q) Should I approach this laboratory now or after March?
(A) On April 6th or 10th. That's after March!
(Q) Whom should we seek to aid us patenting this invention?
(A) There are many channels, to be sure, that are worthy.
Those that have been the representatives of some of the
associates in this research laboratory would be the better.
But don't forget Snow!
(Q) Give his first name.
(A) E. W. [E. W. Snow]
(Q) Give a list of scientific books for me to study during
the coming year, especially within the next three months,
relating to this subject?
(A) First WE would suggest "This Mysterious World of Ours."
[THE MYSTERIOUS UNIVERSE by Sir James Jeans?] Next we would
take the electrical transmissions that have been prepared
by those that are rather in manuscript form (which may be
obtained through the associates of the body), connected with
the Edison laboratory. Next we would take some GENERAL
information of one or two different authors or writers on
research in the field of radio, its causes of static and the
means of transmission. Any one, or any author of repute.
There are several in those that have been prepared by some of
the associates of Steinmetz [Charles Proteus Steinmetz -
1865-1923]; some of those as of Steuer [GD's note:
Pronounced STOR, like the famous lawyer in '20's, Max Steuer]
some of the same nature, see?
(Q) Who is the author of the first book mentioned? [See
440-11, Par. 26-A saying S. L. Steuer.]
(A) "This Mysterious World," or "This Mysterious Universe."
(Q) Or both?
(A) "This Mysterious Universe." We don't find the name
here.
(Q) How about the other book mentioned?
(A) We have given two or three writers here in other forms,
and some manuscripts that may be had, and "This Mysterious
World," or "Mysterious Universe." We would also include
among those one that would appear to have little or no
bearing on the subject, but rather as a love story - read
in these connections "The Romance of Two Worlds" by Corelli.
[Marie Corelli - 1855-1924] It wouldn't be bad to include
among these "She", [SHE by H. Rider Haggard] a weird thing -
but we are dealing with the principles that you are studying;
for all of these were also Atlanteans, and are anxious to
express themselves, even as they did in their natural
or earth life, again. Corelli is just becoming active.
Wallace [Wallis] is just active also, and has had few
connections - or very bad connections - as yet. [Lew Wallace
- 1827-1905, author of BEN HUR, etc.?]
(Q) Write the patent document for filing in U.S. patent
office so that there may be no infringements on this
invention.
(A) This has been given. So long as the paragraph given
is not left out, you will not have what is termed a basic
but the ELIMINATING of that gathered, see, THROUGH the
connections and the eliminations. This will prevent any
issuing of basic patents that would infringe upon the
eliminator.
The varietone and kindred appliances, where the reception
coil or wire or lead or aerial has passed through, or does
pass through different character of elements, or being
short-circuited and then carried on into a lead which makes
only a skip gap in its activity, they take FROM but they do
not ELIMINATE from the reception wire or reception lead or
aerial that which is gathered from or that comes in with,
see? Hence this line as given. That only is necessary to
prevent infringement.
(Q) Should we seek foreign patents?
(A) Patent Applied For, in most foreign relations, would be
better than paying out so much money for patents, except in
Russia - you'll have to make some roundabout ways there.
(Q) To whom should we sell this invention, or would you
follow another course?
(A) In the present (as is seen, or will be seen upon
investigation) there are practically only two sources through
which the use of same may be given to the public, unless
sold independently. The PREFERABLE way and manner would be
to perfect same and then with the R.C. A. make the
arrangements that there is a royalty (of a not too great
amount) upon each eliminator installed in ANY of their
machines.
(Q) What percentage would you suggest?
(A) Twenty-five cents for each one, and that will mean
nearly a million in each year.
(Q) Shall we try to patent aurascope?
(A) There will be - Yes, we would wait until October and
then the period in which there would be an infringement upon
any will have passed, for it passes the 27th of August!
Yes, we would patent it in the fall, after there has been
the sufficient experimentation with same. For this in itself
will lead (not in its first inception, but with some of the
other associations or interests that the body will concur
with and work out later) to real value to rather the
professional people than to the laymen. Hence there will be
the necessity of a great deal of experimentation before this
may be presented in its finality. But don't go to your
professional people first! MAKE the experimentation rather
with the laymen, and then when it is ready for presentation
go to two organizations at the same time. This doesn't mean
on the same day, but during their regular meetings in that
same year. The associations through the clinic of the
homeopathic profession and the neuropathic profession. Not
to the A.M.A.
(Q) Will Dr. Paul Cold [Dr. Paul E. Cold, N.D.] be of
assistance in developing this instrument?
(A) Dr. Cold is very good, but do not go to ANY of the
PROFESSIONAL men in the experimentation - for you'd lose it!
(Q) Whom else shall I seek to help in experimenting with it?
(A) Any that are rather in the field of PSYCHIC
experimentation; for we are not dealing with anything that
pertains to the field other than that which will in its final
analysis be of aid to the profession - and the sad part of
it, those who may turn it into a charlatan idea! Hence turn
rather to those that are seekers along the lines of aid to
their fellow man.
In the experimentation, then, those who have ideas, yes -
but rather those of the optometrist profession. They are in
question, yes - but rather of that field, for they are those
who may aid in just the experiments in the BUILDING or making
of that which is of value through such fields. This may be
and is questioned in self, why turn to these - which are out
of the field! For they, as a profession, are IN the field -
and they will ask you the fewer questions as to what you're
going to do with it! They'll just make what you ask for!
(Q) Do you suggest any one in particular?
(A) No, just choose a good one. German one would be better,
or the descent of the Austrian or German - yes. Of course,
let them only make your glasses. You don't have to tell them
what you've got in mind, and they'll ask you little or few
or no questions - because they already think they know all
that's to be known and you don't know anything!
(Q) Regarding the following questions on recording machine,
can better information be given through this channel by
locating the parts of same or basing the information from
more complete concept as held in mind of entity?
(A) By locating the parts, by having the parts present to
be pointed out in the needs of changes, either in position
or in the varied activities that are necessary for making
for a more perfect recording, or more perfect activity of
the recording and reproducing apparatus. Then, when this
information is sought, we would have the greater part or
all portions possible PRESENT - and point them out as with
a pointer, and we'll get somewhere! We are through for the
present.
