<br />35 <br /> <br />'I <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />CH1.IRMl.NHOOVER: We get up against a very difficult point <br /> <br /> <br />there. This committee would get together and sayuThe Geological <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />Survey has started this business. Now we h~ve secured that they <br />" ' <br /> <br />would do it and it would be very desirable that ,theseo'fficials <br /> <br />should sit in to collate all information th,ey pave got about this <br /> <br />Basin, once and for all.uIn other words, if we leave 00tthe <br /> <br />Federal government they can withhold all their information from <br /> <br />these states; Further than that we don't c9mpel them to hand it <br /> <br />over, but make the pious observation that they sh~uld get together. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />I don"t know that legally this wording, compels or makes it <br />necessary for someone to appoint these officio,ls. Itia' inferred <br />at len:st. <br />, MR. C1.RPENTER: Under every statute, every arid sta'te, I <br /> <br />believe, has an official now. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />CHaIRMAN HOOVER: I mean appoint them to this, ex-offic io duty. <br /> <br /> <br />MR. C1~RPENTER: The, us,e of the words "Ex-offic'ioIJ 'carries <br /> <br />with it the fact that the man in office is th~ man sel~cted. <br />CH1.IRM1~N HOOVER: I perhaps didn't get it clear. I meant <br />somebody may have to designate which official frot(! et;Lch'state <br />and from these two services shall act. <br /> <br />MH. C1.RPENTER: 1:..s to"the services I think the suggestion is <br /> <br />good. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />CH1.IRM1.N HOOVER: Have you got your wording there at,the <br /> <br /> <br />start of tbis, Mr. Caldwell! <br /> <br /> <br />MR. Cl.LDWELL: I called this an "exofficio committeell instead <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />of a "technical cammi ttee." <br /> <br />CH1.IRMAN HOOVER: I wonder if we could call it uengineering <br /> <br />committee". just a broad distinction. <br />
