(Q) Night of Dec. 25 or morning of Dec. 26, 1926. Moe
Wallack came in and said Bache & Co. said the market was
going to sell down. "Down?" I asked, surprised, for I
expected a rising, not falling market, in January. "Down for
now, they say," said Moe. Then Ben Block came in and we
looked over a big sheet together. "[
900]," he said, "You
don't hold many stocks, do you?" "No," I replied, "I don't
know what stocks to buy. Which ones - which industrial stock
shall I buy?" We looked over the sheets, and found one
customer named "Crewes" was holding 600 shares of Chicago
Nipple stock. "Yes," I said, "He has that but he'll buy 200
shares of Baldwin and sell it out at a profit the same day."
Block nodded. I still felt I did not know what to buy or
when. Then Ben Block sat down at his desk. A clock giving
the "Time" stood behind him and where the pendulum was, a
float was rising in water. It rose half way up and stopped
there during the period of our conversation. It rose half
way up and stopped, then it rose all the way up to the
clock's time face and there struck a gong. As it struck Ben
Block said: "Now Buy Anything!"
(A) In this there is seen the presentation, through the
subconscious forces of the entity, that in which the body
conscious mind has been delving, through the efforts of the
mental consciousness - and, as is seen, in this emblematical
way and manner, there are presented those conditions that the
entity may study the conditions that are to be given the
entity as regarding the market in the coming year. First
there is seen an entity, a body, that tells the entity
conditions regarding the market at the present time, that
representing an old standard, as it were, to the entity.
Then there is seen the entity representing the present, that
the entity studies, as it were, the situation with, and in
looking over the affairs or conditions there are seen
specific conditions, special stocks in which individuals will
make special runs, or special conditions arise, being led by
individuals - for, as has been given, the new year, with its
many variations, will find many conditions arising of an
unusual nature, and individuals who have not as yet been
known as influences in the stock exchange, and in certain
industrials, will make such inroads, such stands, as will
cause much consternation among those ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE of
such combinations from that individual.
As is seen in that of the Crewes holding, meaning the name -
individuals or groups, see? holding certain stocks. Not a
special stock, but - as is represented - an industrial of
natures that have to do with the central and western portion
of country. Then, as is seen, Baldwin meaning or
representing that rails are to be as the criterion for
industrials in the coming year.
The float that balance within self that is to receive that
information for self as pertaining to individual stocks and
their variations, and the general trend is as seen - that
after the 3rd, see? (the gong sounds three times) after the
3rd, there may be MANY of the industrial and rail, AND oil,
that the entity will receive for self information concerning
that will bring much means, much goods to the entity. Be
careful of anything that would be held over the middle of the
year, however. Ready for questions.
(Q) What time is here indicated?
(A) After the 3rd - gong sounding three times, as seen.
(Q) May anything be bought then?
(A) Those as are given the entity, as is seen by the float
rising and falling - coming to the face after the gong
sounding, or coming to the attention or to the consciousness
of the entity.
(Q) What reference to Crewes and Baldwin stock mean?
(A) Crewes that of individuals or groups. Baldwin as given,
the criterion in rails, or Baldwin, see? Baldwin being as
locomotive - the direction as of rail.
