<br />194 <br /> <br />1ffi, HOOVER: Supposing Congress put a reservation. on }hat, then you <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />might have to recommend your legislation in every state? <br /> <br />r.ffi. NORVIEL: I think we should cut it out altogether. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MR. HAI\!ELE: Would this accomplish it? "lJpon the specific approval <br /> <br />of Congress?" <br /> <br />1!R. HOOVER: Suppose they disapprove? ~n1at I am trying to do is <br /> <br />simply narrow this thing dovm so this paragraph doesn It make it necessary <br /> <br />to get to the entire machinery. <br /> <br />~ffi. SCRUrn~u~: I would be tempted to fight it out 'rrith the Senators <br /> <br />and Congressmen if they disapprove it on that ground. <br /> <br />1!R. HOOVER: One phase of this is, the States enter into a compact <br /> <br />to take something away from the Federal Government and the Federal Govern- <br /> <br />ment consents I suppose. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />1!R. lliU1SLE: The question of that being an invitation to Congress <br />, <br /> <br />,Lenlt "important because Congress wonlt overlook the question. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />.HH. HOOVER: If it is put in in an invitational form it looks as if <br /> <br />the people at this table had some serious doubts about it and we don't <br /> <br />want to give it that complexion. <br /> <br />1m. MC CLURE: If you say !lupon the approval of Congress" that's an <br /> <br />assumption that they are going to approve it. <br /> <br />1m. DAVIS: I like "consent" rather than "approval". <br /> <br />MR. Il',MELE, "Upon the specific conse.nt of this p11ragraph by <br /> <br />Congress" . <br /> <br />MR. D,WIS: That VTas my thought. <br /> <br />MR. lli\MELE: It is 11pt to be left uncertain unless you are specific <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />in this paragraph. <br /> <br />MR. DAVIS: "This paragraph shall not effecti-~e until approved by <br /> <br />. .~ <br /> <br />Congress" - plenty of ways of expressing the idea. <br />
