Hans Kramer, USA-Ret., Colorado-Kansas Arkansas River Compact Commission 950 Mills Tower o 220 Bush Street San Francisco, California Mr. Henry C. Vidal, Chairman Colorado Commissioners Y < Colorado-Kansas Arkansas River Compact Commission` Equitable Building Denver, Colorado Gentlemen: Miss Browning in her statement for reporting the September 13 to 17, 1948 meeting of the Compact Commission includes an extra item of $30.00 to Kansas for pages typed during the session, 75 pages at 40 cents. Presumably each of the three parties have been similarly billed, making a total of $90.00 for such miscellaneous typing. Never before during the nearly three years of the Compact Commission's work has a charge for such miscellaneous typing during a session. been made. We think this charge was not authorized, is not justified and that it should not be allowed.. To allow this additional $90.00 for miscellaneous typing during the five days in which the reporter was allowed a per diem in the aggre- gate sum of $75.00, $15.00 per day, making a total of $165.00 for a week's services, would in effect be an allowance of more than double the amount which the Commission had agreed upon for services of the reporter rendered during the sessions of the Commission. Very truly yours, Geo. S.
