<br /> <br />002381 <br /> <br />r~;:;:-:; <br /> <br />.....--<.;,., <br />;:~f:it <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM OF TRANSMITTAL <br /> <br />! <br />" <br />, <br />1 <br />, <br />1 <br />! <br />, <br />, <br /> <br />UNITED STATES SENATE, <br />COM:MITl'EE ON INTERIOR AND INSULAR AFFAillS, <br />December 130, 1957. <br />To Member8 of the Oommittee on Interior and Insular Affair8: <br />Here is the report of Michael W. Straus, committee consultant, on <br />the relationship of river and related water resources development <br />programs of the United States, Soviet Russia, and Red China, noting <br />major and rapid changes. <br />Because a number of Senators, including myself, had alluded with <br />considerable concern to various individual items embraced in this <br />subject, I directed Mr. Straus (instructions appended) to collect and <br />assemble, on a more comprehensive basis, this material in the form <br />of a report to the committee permitting appraisals. <br />The result of this inquiry reveals a situation requiring immediate <br />attention if our country is not willing to be eclipsed, as it has by other <br />nations in other fields, in their major area of our assigned responsi- <br />bilities having to do with river development. <br />As some matters in this report involve the responsibilities of the <br />Senate Committee on Public Works and the Senate Committee on <br />Appropriations, I am furnishing the chairmen and members of <br />those committees, and others, with copies of this report with the <br />proffer of such assistance and cooperatIOn by this committee as may <br />be desired in evolving a joint endeavor to correct the situation here <br />revealed. <br />I propose to bring this subject before the committee at the first <br />appropriate meeting. In the meantime, I will appreciate by January <br />15, 1958, any comments or suggestions my colleagues may have as to <br />procedure in cooperation with the Committee on Public Works, should <br />it desire to take joint action, which I am proposing to its distinguished <br />chairman (Mr. Chavez) . <br />JAMES E. MURRAY, <br />Ohairman, Oommittee on Interior <br />and Insular Affair8. <br /> <br />m <br /> <br /> <br />
