I think that these people should suggest their own proposed rules of procedure and at that time the Board will have an oppprtunity to say whether they agree or disagree with whatever they submit."

They are merely going to make recommendations to the Water Board as to what surveys should be made and the people to make these surveys. They are not the ones making the report. Isn't that correct, Glenn?' "It was the understanding that this committee would undertake what a subcommittee might under- take but to which you would appoint people who represent areas of the State who had worked on this for so long. They might be expected to work more continuously than we would ask members of the Board to work. They will come back with their recommendations to the Director and' the Board to put this show on the road." "Mr. Sparks, the wording of Item Four doesn't':to my way of thinking, coincide with your explanation and I will read as follows: 'Because of the urgency of the many and com- plicated current and pending matters relating to the Colorado River, we recommend that said study commission initially, and until other- wise directed by the Colorado Water Conserva- tion Board, devote its entire efforts to studies in connection with the Colorado River, and to that end immediately be authorized and directed ,to undertake studies with respect to the Colorado River to accomplish the following results - - - .'
