The lu'xt three sections describe in detail our reasons for adopting the foregoing findings because of the rejection of some and tlie acceptance of otlier views of each of tlie disputants.
(The study referred to will be found in the files of the committee.)
Mr. McCann. Mr. Chairman, the order of business, as I understand it for tliis week, is that Mr. Cobb is to put on his testimony, to be followed by Mr. Sorrell's statement, and that Mr. Walsh and his witnesses will follow. Mr. Luddy will then present his side.
I am hopino; we will have one day in which we may be able to call disinterested public witnesses who can throw light on this situation.
I understand the chairman wants to finish here Friday night, and that he will hold sessions Wednesday night and Thursday night if necessary to do so.
Mr. Kearns. That is right. I want you, too, Mr. Counsel, to consult with the other counsel so we do not have too much repetition of testimony.
Mr. McCann. I trust that may be done, sir.
Mr. Cobb, what is your first witness' name?
Mr. Cobb. Mr. Cambiano.
Mr. Kearns. Do you solemnly swear the testimony which you are about to give to be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God ?
Mr. Cambiano. Yes.
Mr. Kearns. Take the chair.
