Mr. Gould, a very young man, testified that he was one of the incor- Worators of the Shiphuilding Company, He did not remember who asked him to be an incorporator.

Mr, McLaren was also one of the incorporators of the Shipbuilding Company, but he did not know how or why he was an Mmoorporator. Mr. McLaren admitted that his company was tn the business Set, ot furnishing directors and incorporators, and when an employee was told that he was a director or an ineorporator he accepted the fact without quéstion and did as he was instruoted.
