TEXT

GC: You will have before you the entity, [1151] born Feb. 12, 1889, in Brooklyn, N.Y., and the information given through these sources in his Life Reading on April 22, 1936. He now seeks a Check Life Reading with information, advice and guidance as to his life and work. You will answer the questions he has submitted as I ask them.
EC: Yes, we have the entity and the information as given respecting the life's work - the entity called [1151].
As we find, the time fast approaches when - as has been indicated - the efforts of the entity will receive more consideration in high places; or the public will become more and more aware of that which has been and is being accomplished by the entity; and those in authority, in the corporations, in the institutions and associations with which the entity is affiliated, will also recognize and restore in material response much of that which has been as remuneration to the entity for the efforts.
There needs to be kept only, then, those ideals that have been the policies of the entity in establishing in the associations and in the connections of the entity those things that have been accomplished.
For there is more and more a crying need - from those that are realizing "I AM my brother's keeper" - for ways and means and policies for the exemplifying of same in the associations of those with capital and those in the affairs that supply to capital the means of activity.
There needs then to be kept, or held fast to, that faith - that has prompted, that did prompt the entity in all the periods of its experience in the associations of affairs that have taken and do take hold upon the lives of the many.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Is there promise, at an early date, of an enlargement of my work and income?
(A) As we find, as has been indicated, there is the recognition of the abilities, in many places, of the entity; and soon this should shape in the form of remunerations that would be more in keeping with the efforts of the entity.
(Q) Is it wise and probable that I will extend my interest with Young Management Corporation?
(A) This as we find is wise and is in keeping with the activities in such a manner as to direct policies that are far-reaching between the laboring and the capital classes, especially in those phases of experience that have to do with transportation.
(Q) If so, will this be accomplished through securing for the Corporation a profitable relationship with the railroads?
(A) As has just been indicated, these are the channels.
(Q) Will a settlement of the litigation between [1265] and [1266] be successful during August or September?
(A) This as we find, to be successful, will require the entity, [1151], being drawn into and becoming a party to the activities that would bring about an equitable agreement.
These conditions that exist, as we have indicated, are part of influences that have commonly been called by some karmic experiences. Hence there must be concessions then upon the part of each.
As we find, without the offices and abilities of the entity, [1151], such a way may not be brought about - without his injection of self into same.
(Q) Is there any radical change in occupation during the Fall for me?
(A) While there may be some radical changes in what might be termed the direct activity of the entity, we find the associations, affiliations and policies still will continue to be in a great measure along the lines and definite associations in which the entity is already engaged.
There may be then radical changes, but much of the activity will still include those affiliations and associations as in the present.
(Q) Are the problems of [1341] as they affect me, to be settled at an early date?
(A) This matter as we find must be settled at an early date; else there will be the inability of the factions that exist, that are under the control of [1341] to be handled in the correct way and manner - or in a manner as befits the greatest good for all concerned. Hence as we find, while it will require some extra exertion on the part of [1151], these can and may be accomplished.
Should be before Labor Day; at least soon thereafter.
(Q) Will they be settled in time to be of financial assistance to me?
(A) They should be settled in time to be of financial assistance, before the first of the year.
(Q) Any other advice of assistance to be given me?
(A) Keep that faith and that channel open, ever, to the still small voice within. Do not in any manner block that influence by self-condemnation, nor by the condemning of others. For as ye sow, so must ye reap. Ye do not gather figs from thistles, ye do not gather good from violence or hate or grudges, but as the divine love is manifested that says "I AM my brother's keeper!" For unless this is kept before all, ever will be that as of old - the blood of righteous Abel will cry aloud to the Father of justice and of mercy.
So those that would have mercy shown must indeed live and show mercy in their dealings, their associations with their fellow man.
For indeed "As ye do it unto the least of thy brethren, ye do it unto thy Maker."
We are through for the present.

8/17/37 EC's letter: "Some days ago I gave Hon. Post Wheeler your address, asked him to call on you. He was the Minister to Russia during the war, I believe, and is a representative of the Government in some capacity now. His wife used to be a native of the County from which I came in Ky. He seems very interested in our work, having recently visited the old home and heard something of it there. Hope you see him if you have the time."
