William Pelzer, Direct Examination. 397
in his particular department that would be more familiar with it.
Q. Who is the assistant auditor? A. We have no assistant auditor.
Q. Who is the auditor? A. Mr. Guliek.
Q. And who is the chief clerk, or Gulick's chief assistant? A. I don't think we have anybody designated as his chief assistant.
Q. Well, who is it that acts in Gulick's absence even though he is not designated? A. We have had a mau named Brink, but he is traveling now, around to the different branches at the present time examining books.
Q. And how long has he been there? A. I don't know that exactly, but he has been there sometime, I believe, though.
Q. Then, I will excuse you until to-morrow morning. You understand what I have asked you to produce? A. I think I understand it, and I will try to do it.
Q. And you will bring these books down, please? A. Yes.
Q. Mr. Pelzer, it might facilitate the conduct of your business and the convenience of your office, if you would make an effort to ascertain wThich books contain the summaries, because you see, if you were to bring down a lot of books with details, why it would require some little time, and I might keep them from you longer than otherwise would be occasioned. So, if you will make an effort to bring the books in which those summaries are bound up, I can probably get through with the matter and return them more expeditiously. A. That is what I wanted to know particularly, what summaries you are after.
Q. I think I have made it clear. You can confer with your counsel. I have made it as clear as I can for a reasonably intelligent man. A. All right.
Mr. Grosvenor: I will introduce at this time, license agreement, dated March 2nd, 1009, between the Motion Picture Patents Company and the Gaumont Company, this agreement having been produced by Mr. Pelzer at the request of Government counsel.
