Jones: <\/strong>My name, which is socialist principle through and through, if you hide yourself in me, you will make it through, no matter what<\/em> befalls you.<\/p>\n

Congregation<\/strong>: (Cheers)<\/p>\n

Jones: <\/strong>No matter what comes your way, makes no difference what difficulty seems to beset you. If you hold to the name of Father, there will be a way made where there was no way.<\/p>\n

Congregation<\/strong>: (Cheers)<\/p>\n

Jones: <\/strong>Trust<\/em> in your God. They that know him shall<\/em> be strong and they shall do exploits\u2013<\/p>\n

(Tape cuts off)<\/p>\n

Jones: <\/strong>Start the tape now. Start the tape, start the\u2013 (tape cut off, begins again) Start the tape. And there\u2019ll be pauses. And keep this tape. Very, very important for Dick Tropp and uh, Johnny Brown, and Harriet [Sarah Tropp], Teri [Buford], or Carolyn [Layton], or [Gene] Chaikin to use, or [Mike] Prokes. Keep it, uh\u2013 We\u2019re not going out through the PA system, are we?<\/p>\n

Male voice in background:<\/strong> No, we\u2019re not\u2013 (unintelligible) (Pause) (Tape edit)<\/p>\n

Jones: <\/strong>Attention. It\u2019s very important that we pamphlet and we project. We must<\/em> get to work immediately. New crisis has arise. Just read the headlines of your newspapers, and you can see the time and the seasons. We must not feed on just good articles that were\u2013 we receive, like last week in the Nation of Islam paper, The<\/em> Bilalian<\/em> News<\/em>, or Guy Young, or Guy Wright rathers [rather], report about what we\u2019re doing, the beautiful thing we\u2019re doing, rehabilitating lives in the project\u2013 the agricultural<\/em> project. We must<\/em> work now. Please<\/em>, everyone, everyone must cooperate immediately to get the newspapers [Peoples Forum<\/em>] out. We have<\/em> to get the newspapers out. Not only do we have to pass newspapers here<\/em>, in the Bay, we must<\/em> get them out all<\/em> over Northern California area and down in the Southern California to override<\/em> or to at least balance<\/em> out the evil intentions of those monopoly forces that own the press. (Tape edit)<\/p>\n

Attention, attention, attention! It\u2019s very important that we get busy. The weekend is upon us. Johnny\u2019s away, and there\u2019s not time for me to coordinate situations. My son Johnny had to take my<\/em> place in L.A. because of something I<\/em> had to do for the salvation of all of us. So we want<\/em> all of you, please, to get busy, pamphleting and project. There\u2019s no time for play downstairs. Let us be busy<\/em> in the vineyard, because certainly the time\u2019s coming when no one will be able to work. (Tape edit)<\/p>\n

Attention, attention, attention! We must get these newspapers distributed. This is Thursday evening, and I am not able to coordinate newspapers and all the other things I\u2019ve got engulfing<\/em> me here, because I<\/em> am involved in something drastically<\/em> important to all of you. My son Johnny\u2019s in Los Angeles taking care of our Thursday and Friday night meeting, and we must all<\/em> get busy to get this newspaper out as quickly<\/em> as possible. Thank you very much. (Tape edit)<\/p>\n

Attention, attention, attention! Whether or not<\/em> I<\/em> come down for an activity does not mean that I\u2019m not present. I have things that must<\/em> be done for your sake, and it\u2019s very vital that you allow me uninterrupted time on my telephone. Please<\/em> do not call the intercom unnecessarily. I do<\/em> not have enough assistants to carry on all that we have to do now. All my main workers are involved in newspaper distribution, Johnny is holding the Friday night meeting down in our Los Angeles Temple, and I need your cooperation. Please, everyone, be distributing the newspapers, be distributing the newspapers or pamphleting or projecting. And we\u2019ve got<\/em> to get the newspaper to the entire<\/em> state this time. (Tape edit)<\/p>\n

Attention, attention, attention! I interrupt the service to tell you that the special offering number is sixteen. It is sixteen. This Saturday night, we must<\/em> give sixteen. This revelation is important to our protection. Sixteen represents the most dangerous cycles. And sixteen is the number we must give. (Tape edit)<\/p>\n

Please let me interrupt. Attention, attention. It\u2019s important that you listen to my son, Johnny, as he addresses<\/em> the needs<\/em> of this congregation to you. We are under the most dangerous<\/em> cycles, and as we approach the latter part of June, we\u2019ve got<\/em> to get ourselves together because we are in difficulty unless we all<\/em> work and coordinate from A to Z. The special number in our offering is sixteen. You must<\/em> get that sixteen in this Sunday. Take that pledge\u2013 You haven\u2019t given it, and be sure<\/em> to have it in by my Wednesday night service. It is vital<\/em> to all<\/em>\u2013 the welfare of all. Thank you. (Tape edit)<\/p>\n

I cannot emphasize enough. Attention, attention. Attencion. Achtung, attention. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of pamphleting. We are running out of time. It\u2019s urgent. I\u2019ll be back in the services very<\/em> shortly, but I have<\/em> to take care of matters that are grave to your life and your<\/em> liberation. So please<\/em>, get the newspaper out. We have very<\/em> little time to get this newspaper out. It\u2019s Tuesday, and we\u2019re way<\/em> behind time. We\u2019ve got to get this newspaper throughout Los Angeles this next weekend. It\u2019s got to be there. Throughout Los Angeles, and we must<\/em> be finished by the 25th<\/em>. We\u2019ve got to have everything out in Los Angeles the 25th and the 26th<\/em>. We have no time to waste. Do you hear me, please, listen. No time to waste.<\/p>\n

Jones: <\/strong>I interrupt the service. Attention, please, attention. Johnny, be sure that we coordinate\u2013 I know you may have to go in my place uh, for our Thursday night service, tomorrow night, in Los Angeles, because I may not be able to make that uh, service on the uh, 16th or the 17th.

The project committee that I just talked to, via Mike Prokes and Tropp, coordinate them and get them here. We\u2019ve got to have them in\u2013 uh, we\u2019ve got to plan this situation out thoroughly<\/em> because I\u2013 I\u2019ve got to be ready for the operation tomorrow morning.

I think this Saturday and Sunday, between services it would be good \u2013 uh, Sunday particularly \u2013 if we s\u2013 looked<\/em> at the pictures of H\u2013 of uh, Hitler and studied the parallels very<\/em> closely, study the parallels of how similar<\/em> it is, the rise of the dictatorship in Germany to what\u2019s happening here. The methodology, what they do when the pressures get too high, when resistance rises. And watch very closely. So, this Sunday afternoon, let\u2019s be sure that we have seen (Unintelligible word). After tonight\u2019s service<\/em>, when you finish the service \u2013 \u2018cause I can\u2019t come down \u2013 if you will. I can\u2019t be in the service. Other pressing matters for your<\/em> liberation and salvation. If you would, Johnny, have as many as possible. Try to study it now. It needs to be studied closely. Thank you.<\/p>\n
