EC: Yes, we have the bodies here and information as is given
regarding utilities and oils, and the intent and purpose of
each individual as regarding the usage of returns from such
stocks or such sales. In this we have many different phases
of conditions to be considered, for we find the intent and
purpose in each individuality, while in a general manner much
the same, in many specific manners different. We find much
information as regarding the same conditions have been
received through other sources and co-relation with these,
as has been given, and we find, as has been given before,
that the manner in which these, [
900] and [
137], should use
this information in different manners. That as obtained by
the body [
137] should be used for the individual, without
reference to any other individual, yet the usage of same
should be kept with the same intent and purpose for which the
body, the entity, has held in the inmost being of the body;
while as that as given to the body [
900] is for the intent
and purpose of giving aid to others in the way that will
prove beneficial to others, as well as self, and the usage
of same should be in the manner as given. We find these have
been kept to now in a very correct manner. There have been
instances when there was doubt in the mind of each. There
have been occasions when the information was used improperly
by banter with others regarding the conditions to happen.
These should not be done in that manner. Rather in the way
as of conditions that are to arise, and follow in the manner
that will be in keeping with good business policies. In the
first we find such information that gives one entity the
advantage over another, when used in a manner to subdue,
or to take the advantage of another, is not in keeping with
any intent and purpose of right, for then we find same taking
advantage of fellow man. Where such information is used as
conditions that exist, for this is an ensample:
When a body knows that a lake lies in a certain district,
and that same may be used for transportation, and the body
knows there are others owning utilities in this district and
not capable of handling same unless of this knowledge, and
without telling or making acquainted with conditions takes
advantage of the fellow man, using such knowledge to the
disadvantage; yet with the same knowledge given, and both
cognizant of conditions, and one may use same to the greater
advantage than the other, not taking advantage.
In this information as has been given, we find since the
third of January there has been that gradual rise in these
properties, and utilities and oils, as was given. There have
been times when combinations of various natures have produced
fluctuations from time to time, yet the general trend has
been in the one direction; that is, upward for the
information as has been given has been to the intent there
was a shortage in oils, with a large necessity of the usage
of same. We will find in the early days in April will begin
when the tankage are nearly emptied in certain quarters that
the general impressions will be given of new fields open,
larger territories of stored properties, and decrease will
begin. Then the properties should be disposed.
As to the use of such information, when taken as the manner
of an advantage over other individuals improperly used. When
taken as a condition of which both are cognizant, and the
usage of same may be used better by one than the other, use
same. The intent and purpose of each, while different, are
correct. There perhaps is considered a small shade of
difference in such relations. The wrong use of same is
rather in the intent and purpose than in the information.
We are through with this reading.
