<br />IllL S. B. DLVIS: I think, and this is largely my own viow <br /> <br /> <br />on that, inasmuch as IT0 have no machinory for measuring that flow <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />and determining absolutely on tho fifty-fifty basis, this is rath- <br /> <br />er in the nature of a guaranty than in tho nature of a division. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />]m. CARPENTEI1; In tho ma ttor of tho fifty-fifty basis, thcl'a <br /> <br />is a tendency to eliminate arbitrarily tho flow of eertain streams <br /> <br />like the Gila. Othar elements such as spot measurements involve <br /> <br />a realm of uncertainty. The figure arrived at is ene which takes <br /> <br />into consideration those other stroams, all of which are fer the <br /> <br />benofit of the lower torritory, and add to tho amount passing <br /> <br />Loe's Ferry" <br /> <br />Jill. HOOVER: Does tho sixty-five million feet comprise the <br /> <br />equitable division with tho lower statos, or does it oompose the <br /> <br />minimum flow over a period of ton years, Dr is tho equitable <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />division phase a furthar matter of consideration? <br /> <br />lill. CARPENTER, It is in the nature of a guaranty of the <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />amount vlhich should come to the lorror state. <br /> <br />WL SCRUGHIJJ: The minimum flew? <br /> <br />Iill. CARPENTER, The minimum flow to come to the lower statos. <br /> <br />1m. HOOVER; Without any idaa of the equitable division? <br /> <br />lilI? CAHPElTTlm: l.1r. Chairman, is not your use of tho words <br /> <br />"equitablo" and "1ogalft synonymous? They are not in fact synon- <br /> <br />, <br />.. <br /> <br />ymous. It is thought this shall censtitute tho equitable delivery <br />at the initial point in the lower territery and that whan it is <br />added to tho surplus it will afferd an oquitable division of the <br />whole rivor. The streams tributary to the river all enter above <br /> <br />. <br /> <br /> <br />17th-S.P. <br />5 <br /> <br />93 <br />
