Given file permission setting of 0004 (- --- --- r--)
Why isn't the file world readable?
The directory this file resides in is 0755.
Also, all the parent directories leading to the file are all 0755.

Bill,
Permissions start testing with the user / group / then everyone else.
If any user is in the group assigned the file they have the group
permissions and the user that owns the file has the user permissions and
everyone who doesn't fall into either category get the last set of
permissions.
Try setting the file to 0444 so you give everyone read permissions.
