     2   MS. STEEL:   Is it possible we could have the original
     3        overnight?
     4
     5   MR. RAMPTON:  No, it is not.  I have not got it.  I made these
     6        copies from pages -----
     7
     8   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I assume Mr. Cannon has got one.
     9
    10   MR. RAMPTON:  Mr. Cannon, I imagine, must have one, yes, but he
    11        is not my witness.
    12
    13   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  There is no harm in getting in touch with
    14        Mr. Cannon and saying if he has got a copy can he bring it
    15        to court.  He has obviously got a very considerable
    16        library of books, some only of which I should have thought
    17        he brought with him when he came on the earlier occasion.
    18
    19   MS. STEEL:  The only thing is that Professor Wheelock has
    20        selected certain pages.  We may not be able to get hold of
    21        the rest of it before we finish re-examination of
    22        Dr. Barnard.
    23
    24   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  That may be so, but at least you will have
    25        Dr. Cannon to fall back on.  He is the person who
    26        introduced it in the first place.
    27
    28   MS. STEEL:   OK, but I think in terms of it being introduced
    29        for Dr. Barnard to be cross-examined, it should be borne
    30        in mind that the whole of it is not there.
    31
    32   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I am well aware of that.  Let us see where
    33        we get to with it.
    34
    35   MR. MORRIS:  Shall we put it behind Geoffrey Cannon?
    36
    37   MR. RAMPTON:  I suggest it goes behind Mr. Cannon's statement.
    38
    39   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  I will make a note, "Put last behind
    40        Mr. Cannon's statement".
    41
    42   MR. RAMPTON:  Dr. Barnard, the National Academy Press, is that
    43        a government?
    44
    45   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  It is immediately before divider 9.
    46
    47   MR. RAMPTON:  Is that a government owned body, the National
    48        Academy Press?
    49        A.  No.
    50 
    51   Q.   What is the National Academy of Sciences? 
    52        A.  It is a private research body. 
    53
    54   Q.   Who are the Committee of Diet and Health?
    55        A.  It is a group appointed by the National Academy of
    56        Sciences.
    57
    58   Q.   What is the Food and Nutrition Board?
    59        A.  I presume that all these bodies are part of the
    60        National Academy of Sciences.
