2 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Read the bottom line, "while..."
3
4 MR. MORRIS: "Their income decreases permanently.... I could
5 continue and mention about 2-3..." And then we have never
6 managed to get the full apparent last line on that. Mainly
7 because Mr. Heller mislaid his original copy but he
8 confirmed that letter in his first statement.
9
10 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Yes.
11
12 MR. MORRIS: So we had no problem with him confirming it and
13 signing it.
14
15 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Right. Well, I have 15th October 1995.
16
17 MR. MORRIS: Yes, we can do that one next. That is not a
18 problem. Letter from Peter Heller to myself, 15th October
19 1995. Referring to your letter from 21st September.

21 Dear Mr. Morris.
22
23 I respond to your recent letter after I went through your

38 the tapes means all the soundtrack and the picture had been
39 destroyed. As we usually do copy the interviews to normal
40 audio cassettes for the transcript and translators I still
41 had some hope to find these relatively small cassettes.
42 But in vain. Those last days I searched but did not find
43 anymore - that means they had been erased during times -
44 normally. Nobody had ever asked before for the uncutted
45 tapes as it was evident from the film itself that the
46 interviews can hardly have been manipulated as for example
47 Mr. S. Quintana speaks in our film only ON/simultaneously
48 (means you can proof the picture and soundtrack speak
49 same!).
50
51 I went again through the film itself and the transcriptions
52 trying to help you and I found:

56 MR. JUSTICE BELL: You can read it in, you know, what the
