<br />INDIVIDUAL VIEWS OF MR. MOSS
<br />
<br />
<br />I concur in the individual views of Senator Anderson and Senator
<br />Mechem of New Mexico. I, too, favor the purposes of S. 1658-in
<br />fact, I offered the amendment in the nature of a substitute which was
<br />adopted and which our committee is reporting favorably as S. 1658.
<br />In section 108, I endeavored to retain the duty of the Secretary of
<br />the Interior and the Commissioner of Reclamation to account for all
<br />of the waters of the Colorado River system allotted, in accordance
<br />with the Colorado River compact ratified in Santa Fe, N. Mex., in
<br />1922. Section 108 provides as follows:
<br />
<br />SEe, 108. This Act shall be deemed a supplement to the
<br />Federal reclamation laws (Act of June 17, 1902, 32 Stat.
<br />388, and Acts amendatory thereof and supplementary
<br />thereto). Nothing contained in this Act shall be construed
<br />to alter, amend, repeal, construe, interpret, modify, or be in
<br />conflict with the provisions of the Colorado River compact,
<br />the Upper Colorado River Basin compact, the Act of April
<br />0, 1956 (Colorado River Storage Project Act) (70 Stat.
<br />105), the treaty with the United Mexican States (Treaty
<br />Series 994), the opinion and any decree entered by the
<br />S~f;~eme Court of the United States in Arizona against
<br />C . ornia (373 U.S. 456), or, except as otherwise provided
<br />herein, the Boulder Canyon Project Act (45 Stat. 1057) or
<br />the Boulder Canyon Adjustment Act (54 Stat. 774).
<br />
<br />However it is well to underline the duty to account for all of the
<br />waters to ail with interest in the river, and I would support positive
<br />language to accomplish this.
<br />FRANK E. Moss,
<br />U.S. Senator.
