Mr. Barnes. I understand—I haven't seen them personally—but I understand they are positive, the ones of his hands.

Mr. Belin. By positive, you mean they showed the presence of nitrates?

Mr. Barnes. They showed the presence of nitrates.

Mr. Belin. What about the one on the cheek?

Mr. Barnes. The one of his cheek was negative.

Mr. Belin. Were any conclusions made because of either the positive results from the test on his hands or the negative result on the test of the cheek?

Mr. Barnes. In my own mind, I didn't expect any positive report from the cheek to start with. But to cut down criticism and to satisfy the public and to show the world that we tried to cover it very well, we did it for possibly any future—I don't know how to word it—any complaints that might come later on.

Mr. Belin. By complaints, you mean people that might——

Mr. Barnes. Might question why you did or why you didn't do it on something this big. We felt like the public should know that we done the best that we knew how.

Mr. Belin. Even though you didn't expect to have results?
