<br /> ~ <br /><:> I <br />w r; <br />A c <br />~ <br /> !: <br /> , <br /> Ii' <br /> <br />31 <br /> <br />Senator Millikin. Is there auy reason why Mexico <br />should have a guaranty as to salinity that the States <br />do not have among themselves 1 <br />Mr. Bashore. I cannot see auy reason why they <br />should." <br /> <br />Further questioning of the same witness indicated that re- <br />turn flow which would be delivered to Mexico would be <br />water which had just been used upstream: <br /> <br />Senator Millikin. TIll'. Chairman, I should like to <br />ask Mr. Bashore this question, bearing on return flow <br />in the river at t.he Mexican border. <br />By the 'Iery tact that it is return flow, it is water <br />that has just been used and returned to the strealn, <br />, is that not correct? <br />Mr. Bashore. Yes. <br />Senat.or MillikiJl. So its condition when it returns <br />to the stream is the condition that it was in when it <br />was put on the land, with one possible additional <br />charge of salinity that it got out of that single use 1 <br />Mr. Bashore. That is right. <br />Senator Millikin. Is that not correct 1 <br />Mr. Bashore. Yes. <br />Senator Millikin. So, roughly speaking, where you <br />are making use of return flow, the water that gets to <br />Mexico is the same as the water that went on land in <br />California or Arizona; is not that eorrect.1 <br />Mr. Bashorc. Yes; t.hat is correct, except that it <br />may have accumulated some salts in its usc. <br />Senator Millikin. Exact.ly; and that is a handicap <br />imposed by geography and not by the treaty; is that <br />not correct 1 <br />Mr. Bashore. ~'hat is correct's <br /> <br />ii <br />.~ <br />';' <br />r ,~ <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />'j. <br /> <br />! <br />Ii <br />I <br />, <br />! <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />, ' <br />:., <br /> <br />During the Testimony of Mr. Acheson, then Assistant Sec- <br />retary of State, who had jnst previously testified that the <br />treaty did not impose on the United States the obligation <br />to deliver water of usable quality, the following colloquy <br />occurred: <br /> <br />~, <br />.il <br />~ <br />i <br />I <br />1 <br /> <br />47 Hearings, pt. 5, at 1726. (Emphasis addod.) <br />48 Hearings, pt. 5, at 1730. (Emphasis added.) <br /> <br />r~ <br />I <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />
