<br />29 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />divisions that those facts be ascertained with all reasonably <br /> <br />accuracy annually and that they be published and declared. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />MR. CbLDWELL: To what effect, Mr. Carpenter? If they are <br /> <br />published and declared are we bound particularly to those measure- <br /> <br />ments by this pact? <br /> <br />MIL Cl,x(PENTER: I think you would be. <br />GH1,IHM1,N HOOVEH: I think so.
