Mr. Moulder. The subpena will be issued.
Mr. Tavenner. Is there any objection to that on your part?
(The witness confers with his counsel.)
Mr. Dennett. I have just conferred with my counsel, and we wondered whether or not you included books.
Mr. Tavenner. There may be some books which the committee would like to have included. However, the committee would not be interested in those books which it already has in its possession.
Mr. Moulder. Whatever counsel will require will be set forth in the subpena.
Mr. Tavenner. I wanted to be certain that the witness is agreeable to it. We could do it without his agreement, but I prefer to find out if he is agreeable.
(The witness confers with his counsel.)
Mr. Dennett. I have conferred with my counsel, and he has raised the question with me: Can I provide adequate protection for the documents which seem to have such importance. And, frankly, I have some misgivings as to whether I can furnish as good protection for them as perhaps the committee can. So I am agreeable to whatever the committee wishes to do.
Mr. Tavenner. Thank you, sir.
