<TITLE>18. Par 117-123</TITLE>L-117 And someone's called me, and say they been waiting for months for tapes. Now, I don't know how Brother Maguire tends to this. I--I don't know about that, as I know nothing about it. And I... It's none of my business to know nothing about that, it's his business with them and the trustees. And I'm not trying to step in, but I'm just telling you what the law of it is. See? The law of it is that these tapes, from the time that they send for them, them tapes are supposed to be on their road within a day or two, three or four, five days; after they send for them tapes, it's got to be in the mail or the franchise can be cancelled at any time when these orders are disobeyed. See?

L-118   Now, and every six months or a year, this is supposed to be renewed, this agreement is supposed to be renewed. You're supposed to meet on this certain date that this franchise says that you've got to meet. And then it's supposed to be, that's, other people are supposed to come in at that time, and you're supposed to notify others who have been asking about the tapes, and come in with their agreement and set down and talk it over.

L-119 Now, these orders must be carried out! See? And it must be carried right, because it is complaining. They complained with Leo and Gene, they complained with every one, it's complain with Brother Maguire, and it'll be complain with somebody else, but let's find out what their complaining is.

L-120 Now, but when the tapes are begin to pile up, boxes of them, letters by the dozens pouring in, and they... See, it doesn't fall back to the tape maker, it falls on me. They're always bawling me out about it. Now, it's my duty as a Christian to see that the people get what they pay for, and I want you trustees to see that they get it. If they have to charge more, get a better tape, get a better machine, we want somebody to make that tape who makes it right. That's our interest. The tape must be made right! And the customer must be satisfied, or stop the whole tape thing altogether, we won't have no tapes, just let anybody make them that wants to. But if they're going to charge for them, let them see that they get what they paid for, 'cause that's Christianity. That's no more than do...

L-121   And when they come here to listen to the Gospel, I want to give them the best that I know how to give them, see, and when they come here I want you to see that everybody and everything's carried on. That's the reason I'm telling you deacons, trustees, and pastors, here tonight, that you must carry this out to the letter, because the people are coming here to find God, and we got to have these things in order.

L-122 And also the tapes must be put into their place. If they have to charge more, if they got second-class tapes they're running, then get better tapes. If they have to charge more for them, charge more for them, let the person get what they charge for.

L-123 I'm not interested in one bit of royalty, not one penny, and neither is the tabernacle interested; I don't want you to be. Don't be interested in that, in--in royalties. If they'd pay some, I guess you'd have to take a little royalty on account of they're being made here. I think that's something that he said to Mr. Miller and them about the law, we have to take certain royalties or so forth. That's up to you all to see to that. I'm not have nothing to do with what... That's set together; you all take care of that. I can't take care of all of it, I'm just telling you the way it should be and must be run. That... And you understood, I said "must be run." So we want this run out right.
