Mr. PUTNAM. Yes. The register will be supplemented by their communications, I suppose--the register itself, including their names. Mr. Horace Pettit, Mr. Chairman, who spoke yesterday, desires to supplement his remarks with an additional suggestion or two, which he has put in writing, and asks simply to have entered in the record, with your permission. Doctor Lewandowski, present here, asks me to submit a request in writing from a firm of music publishers in New York, that he submit to you a communication in aid of the provisions for the protection of music publishers against reproduction by mechanical devices. He submits that in writing, with the request that it may be entered on the record. (The various papers above mentioned will be found at the end of this statement of Mr. Putnam.) Mr. PUTNAM. The copyright office, Mr. Chairman, is now in receipt, naturally, since the bill has been introduced, of some suggestions from those who have participated in the conferences, and since the bill has been introduced and is in the custody of your committee it would seem that those belong to the files of your committee. If you will permit me, I will submit these, without reading them, to be entered in the record. The CHAIRMAN. Do you think they ought to be printed in the record of the meeting? Mr. PUTNAM. I do, Mr. Chairman. I do not refer to mere formal communications, or those that may be disposed of absolutely by the copyright office. I do not mean all communications that come to us with reference to the bill. These are simply four communications, from four participants in the conference. One of them, Mr. A. W. Elson, makes certain definite proposals for amendments, including one to section 13 which would extend the manufacturing clause. He has sent a copy of this to you, Mr. Chairman, and I assume that it will go in the record, with the request for a hearing. The second is from Mr. Edmund C. Stedman, who was a participant, but is in ill-health, and can not be here; but it contains an expression upon the bill that I think should go in the record. Another is from Mr. Leo Feist, also a participant, and contains an expression about the bill that he would have made here orally if present. I think that should go in. Another is from Mr. Ansley Wilcox, who represented certain lithographic interests very much concerned with the protection of such prints as posters, and very much concerned, therefore, in the specifications of subject-matter. He writes a communication which I think should go into the record, expressing his content with the specifications of sections 4 and 5. The CHAIRMAN. Those will be printed in the record. (The above-mentioned papers will also be found at the end of this statement of Mr. Putnam.)
