December 13th,1927. Dr. Herman Schlundt, Room 110 New Chemistry Bldg., Univorsity of Missouri, Columbia, Mo. Dear Dr. Schlundt: Out attorneys advise that at a preliminary hearing before the Vice Chancellor in Newark yesterday, relativo to the evidence admissible at our hearing on January 12th, it was the Vice Chancellor's opinion that it will not be necessary to have any out of cown witnesses present on that date. It seems that there is a point at lam to be sottled in these cases before the evidence will be taken, and the Vice Chancellor's opinion is that January 12th, will be devoted to this phase or the cases. The Vice Changellor has set aside only one day in January, and in the event thet the cases are continued in the Court of Equity it probably will be a matter of months before the expert testimony will be required. As you realize the courts act at their own pleasure in these matters, and as soon as we have anything definite, when evidence such as you can give is to be taken we will comunicate with you. In the meantime should you be in the City I trust that you will ive us a call. With kind personal regards, I am Cordially yours, Vice President. HHBarker :RH
