Mr. Rankin. Did you discuss this Exhibit 4 with anyone else at the time you prepared your answer?

Mr. Johnson. When Elizabeth gave it to me, just that she indicated that I should answer it. There was really no discussion of what the answer would be.

Mr. Rankin. Did you give him an answer as to whether he should remain in the background, i.e., underground?

Mr. Johnson. Yes; I did.

Mr. Rankin. Did you do that in your letter?

Mr. Johnson. In my letter; yes.

Mr. Rankin. There is on the last or third page, Mr. Johnson, a notation, "Arnold," with a line above and below that. Do you know whose handwriting that is?

Mr. Johnson. Elizabeth Flynn's.

Mr. Rankin. I hand you Exhibit 4-A and ask you if that is a reply that you prepared to Exhibit 4.

Mr. Johnson. It is, but it is also to a further letter (indicating).
