i'm hoping to obtain a copy of the 1939 booklet advice for kingdom publishers.
it's a 16-page booklet that was written, i understand, to help us publishers as they embarked on the very vigorous witnessing campaigns that were largely aimed at provoking police and governments to take action against them.
i'm particularly interested in what specific advice they were given about creating or avoiding situations likely to result in their arrest.
Thank you Petra!
I thought my cloud back up had all the files I received. It looks like this one slipped through the cracks. I wasn't at home, so I couldn't check the hard drive. I'll have to check the cloud back up for any other missing files.
If those links don't work for anyone, here is another:

Because, How can you tell the difference between Demon Possession and Mental Illness? Or Holy Spirit Possession?
Speaking in tongues? Visions? Those don't help! What is a JC to do?!
how many here have been asked the loyalty question by an elder.
i am referring to, "do you believe that jehovah is using the faithful and discreet slave class to accomplish his work?
" or something along this line?.
What is the history of this loyalty test? When did it first come into use? Was it ever put into writing that this question (or similar wording) should be used to interrogate suspected apostates?
Who can shed light on this?
"so that we will not be confused with salesmen, it is best not to mention the donation arrangement unless we are asked how our work is financed.".
this damning quote is found on page 1 of the september 2015 our kingdom ministry, the last sentence in the 3rd bullet point under the sub-heading how to do it.
this quote amounts to an implicit admission that the jw practice of mentioning the donation arrangement to householders at the door, makes them look like door to door salesmen.. why would "jehovah's organization" be engaging in a practice that is nothing more than a transparent attempt at undercover soliciting?
Maybe this is a small step in the direction of dropping the door to door donation arraignment of asking?
Edit: Nope! They have said this before.

So that we will not be confused with salesmen, it is usually best not to mention the donation arrangement unless we are asked how our work is financed.

I think this is specific to "Business Territory" because the part is titled
