self to produce some affidavits upon
that question. do not know to whom
Mr.. Parker referred nor do I know
whose name he would have called if
the committee had made him testify.
| now ask Mr.. Lyon. who was con-
ducting the investigation, if he knew
whom Parker would have nameL?"
Mr. Lyon: "Do you want me to an
swer that question now, Mr.. Blease?'
Mr.. Blcasc: eyes, sir, right now. -
Mr.. Lyon: "Then, fellow citizens,
l should like to state concerning that
) Testimony that Mr.. Parker did not tell
me beforehand what he would testify.
Nor has he since told me. So I do
not know who he would have named. -
"Then," continued Mr.. Blease, ct
! hope that the man who made the

expected another man to correct an
