1472 MOTION-PICTURE JURISDICTIONAL DISPUTES Mr. Owens. And the American people as a whole. Mr. HuTCHEsoN. The people I represent are all Americans. Mr. Owens. The American people as a whole. I represent a dis- trict, but I do try to help the American people as a whole. Mr. HuTCHESON. Well, of course, there is a vast difference between you and I. You represent them as an elected officer. I am elected by a group of citizens and not in a public office. Mr. Landis. Mr. Hutcheson, you would not want to leave the im- pression that you are not for the public at all ? Mr. Hutcheson. I am for the public because I am part of the public, one of the insignificant citizens along with all the rest of them in the United States. Mr. Owens. I would not ask you that question if I thought you were insignificant, Mr. Hutcheson. I do not think you are. I think you are a powerful factor in labor throughout the United States. That is why I asked you that question, in all seriousness. Mr. Hutcheson. Congressman, that is quite a compliment. I have never taken myself as seriously. Mr. Oa\^ns. Your name is in the annals and in the court reports of the Nation showing the powers that you exercise. That was why I asked you the question. Mr. Hutcheson. Congressman, please do not apply the word "power" to me. If I in my luunble way can exercise some influence Mr. O^VENS. Well, that is a good word. I will change the word "power" to "influence." Mr. Hutcheson. Thank you. Mr. Kearns. Mr; Hutcheson, I am going to excuse you at the moment, although I would rather have you stay for some of the remaining testimony, in case we want to ask you some questions in reference to it. Mr. Hutcheson. All right, Mr. Chairman, while I am here I am at your service. Don't forget, Mr. Chairman, I have to leave tomorrow. Mr. Kj:arns. Mrs. Locher, Mr. Doherty just came in. Mr. Landis wants to question him at this time. TESTIMONY OF WILLIAM C. DOHERTY—Recalled Mr. Kearns. Mr. Doherty, you have already been sworn. The reason I have asked you to return is that Mr. Landis, the ranking member of the whole committee, has a few questions he would like to ask you, after hearing Mr. Hutcheson's testimony. Mr. Landis. Mr. Doherty Mr. Doherty. Mr. Chairman, I did not hear Mr. Hutcheson's testimony. I did not know you were holding a holiday meeting yes- terday, but I will be happy to answer any questions that Congressman Landis might ask me. Mr. Landis. Well, if I can make myself clear with this brief obser- vation : Mr. Hutcheson had a representative in Hollywood at the hearing of the three-man committee. Mr. Cambiano testified and gave a partial report on the carpenters before your committee. Mr. Doherty. That is correct.
