PATTERSON: I felt in this, just to get an ap- <br /> preciation or the complications that the engineers were con- <br /> fronted with in dealing with these records, that it has a <br /> double significance now, in view of the statements made by <br /> the Bureau of Reclamation with respect to their hopes or pros- <br /> pective uses of space in John Martin Reservoir for storing <br /> waters perhaps to be imported by them to the Arkansas River. <br /> We are certainly going to deal with waters of the <br /> Arkansas River that are impounded and released at Caddon, and <br /> it is quite important, I think, that we carefully avoid any <br /> possibility of making a deal in the event it should develop <br /> that the Bureau also is going to have some white water, as <br /> distinguished from our black water or any other that we recog- <br /> nize ; that we are not now, at least, waking any allocation of <br /> that foreign or imported water, or whatever you want to call <br /> it, that we might get in there under this present proposed <br /> compact. <br /> So I do think it is Important that everyone have <br /> the necessity for a differentiation here or a segregation of <br /> what we are dealing with.- <br />
