([Tom:] “Other questions might take the format of what opportunities might arise in business; the Bega development; etc...”

You can be too conservative, not following up sufficiently your intuitive understanding of the business. There is one man important in the three-in-one merger, and the best man has not yet been found.

We will return briefly, ourselves now, to the business world. And to our lady (Virginia), who prefers to stay in one place. There is creative opportunity for you here, within the framework in which you are now involved, within the general framework.

As a man brings a body to a doctor, then let the businessman bring his business to you for a checkup—find out how healthy it is, and how you can further its productivity.

Such a service could be born within your framework, and become an important part of other banks. You would have your finger on the economic pulse-beat of the area, and you could diagnose business ills before they occurred —banking preventative medicine, you see, and you could have the preventive medicine at your fingertips and be ready to apply it.

Not only would you be helping individual businessmen but you would also be protecting the economic health of the area. You were quite correct in thinking of small business and the informal atmosphere. A thorough knowledge of the tax structures would be invaluable.

Now I am almost giving you the advertising that would be effective, for the imagery is important. And as a doctor guides the growth of a child, so you could begin at scratch to guide the growth of new companies, and even you see to consult with them before. You could also consult there and aid those who intend to go into business, have capital, and do not know precisely how to proceed. This would automatically bring new funds and fresh blood into the economic structure, and into your particular bank.
