   (A) As set at the present time, this may be expanded or built up, rather than in its present status, for the condition surrounding same does not give the facilities of handling or of spreading out as it should be for the greatest success. There are some policies with the organization would be well to curtail in some directions and expand in others. There needs be the greater expansion in distribution of present products and a little later with the present outlook, we would expand more in the number of products and in the development of same. Then, the policy should be changed in that manner for the greater success. All can see this, see?

6. (Q) Upon which products of the Company should the most effort be put?
   (A) Those that have to do principally with those as outlined, as used by specialists in eye, ear, nose and throat, see? and nerve and skin, see? See, we have skin specialists, we have teeth specialists, we have throat and ear specialists. These products, especially - be different phases of same - are quite wonderful in these conditions, see?
7. (Q) Is it advisable for the Company to attempt its own financial program through the sale of additional stock and can they negotiate this successfully through Abraham Rosenberg of Dayton, Ohio?
   (A) Through anyone who can present to such specialists the possibilities of the products of the Company, see?

Necessary that these be put in shape so they may be presented to individuals in the proper manner, see? The abilities of Abraham Rosenberg are such as such products may be presented to such peoples in such a manner that they would contribute and give sufficient of their self and means to make this successful.
8. (Q) Would the operations be more successful if merged with The Ipsab Corporation as organized by Morton Blumenthal of New York?
   (A) Were such merge made (and it could be made), this we find would be very good, for there are those who may be interested through this channel that given access to the larger institutions using such products as may be made by ... Chemical Company, through the product they make, see?
9. (Q) Can such a merger and negotiations with Mr. Blumenthal be accomplished and handled successfully by the officers of the ... Chemical Company alone?

    (A) As given, necessary that some salesman present such in the manner that same may be presented in a way showing how that same may be financed through such peoples, see? for this is not as that of the inabilities of the officers of the said Company, but their direction lies in other channels.
11. (Q) If such merger is feasible and can be arranged, is the plan outlined and discussed between Abraham Rosenberg and Dr. [4508] equitable and should it be acceptable to all concerned?
    (A) It's equitable. Should be acceptable, presented in the correct manner. Will be rejected at first, will be accepted second.

   Dr. [4508] ..., Ohio
   My dear Dr. [4508] -
   I have thought of you a great many times since I have been away from Dayton. I've wondered how things are going with you, how things have gone with your plant, and most of all, how your wife has been getting along. I suppose that you got the applicator, as was suggested. What are the results you find from same? I have certainly been very anxious, as I told you, to know these are working in the proper way. I shall appreciate your letting me hear from you from time to time. I certainly wish that we had known each other sooner, for I believe we could have worked out many things to the mutual benefit of ourselves and many others.
   I'm glad to say we all like Virginia Beach very much. We find our work is daily on the increase.
   With kindest personal regards and best wishes,
   Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD
