Mr. BALL. Mrs. Postal, this will be written up and you can read it and sign it if you wish, or you can waive signature and we will send it on to the Commission without your signature. Now, how do you feel about it? Do you want to do that? Mrs. POSTAL. I don't know. I mean, this is all new to me anyway. Mr. BALL. Would you just as leave waive your signature? Mrs. POSTAL. Well, I see no reason why not. Mr. BALL. Okay. Fine. Then you don't have to come down and sign it. We will send it without your signature. Thank you, very much for coming in. TESTIMONY OF WARREN H.
