1558 MOTION-PICTURE JURISDICTIONAL DISPUTES
Mr. McCann. Now are you prepared to furnish the name of the man who made the statement that Herb Sorrell was the doorman ?
You will recall the other day when we had the very issue before us as to whether or not we could accept affidavits on the question of membership in four different unions, that Mr. Owens stated such material should not be received in the record.
Mr. Levy. My recollection is that it was not a man, that it was a woman and that her name was Rena Vale. I do not have the record before me but I would like to verify that to make it accurate.
Mr. McCann. I wish that you would, sir.
Mr. Levy. I shall do so, sir.
Mr. SoRREix. That is right ; that was a woman.
Mr. Kearns. Just a moment.
Mr. Levy (reading) :
Additional and further activities of this subject will appear in local and national publications at an early date.
No. 1 of a series of personalities in Hollywood. All information was taken from public records, documentary evidence from Federal, State, municipal records ; newspaper and magazine clips ; available to subject or anyone desiring proof of their authenticity.
Released in American public interest by the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees and Motion Picture Machine Operators, 6636 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood 28, California.
Signed : "Official Committee of the lATSE, Roy M. Brewer, international representative."
That, Mr. Chairman, is the first exhibit which I submitted with my letter of November 28. I think it would not be inappropriate for me to ask the indulgence of the committee for a 5-minute recess before I proceed with a continued presentation of my statement.
Mr. MgCanx. May we have that document turned over to the court reporter for him to check as he reproduces it and then you can receive it from us?
Mr. Levy. Definitely.
Mr. Kearns. Mr. Levy, are you going to keep all of those exhibits and the letter you sent me until you finish your report?
Mr. Levy. I would be glad to submit them to you or I will be glad to keep them, as you wish. I will assure you if you have them they will be safe and if I have them they will be safe.
Mr. INIcCann. I think, Mr. Chairman, after they are read in the record, the letter originally sent to you, with these documents, should be returned to the file because they are exhibits read into the record. We can then refer to them in sending wires out to anyone named.
Mr. Levy. What the Congressman asked me was whether I should keep them during the recess; isn't that what you indicated?
Mr. Kearns. Yes, or perhaps tonight you would like to return them to me.
Mr. McCann. I suggest he keep them in his own possession.
Mr, Kearns. No objection.
I would like to make this announcement: Tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock we will return to the caucus room downstairs and continue the hearings there tomorrow and Friday.
We will now stand adjourned until 10 a. m. tomorrow morning.
(Whereupon, at 5 : 10 p. m., the committee adjourned until 10 a. m. the following day, Thursday, February 26, 1948.)
