<br />~7 <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />upon which would call for a considerable amount <br />of money. The Legislation Committee considered <br />this suggestion at some length and came to the <br />conclusion that it was neither feasible nor <br />practicable to embark on such a campaign; also, <br />that with the present funds-an effective program <br />to present the facts to Congressmen should be <br />attempted. That is the reason for this third <br />recommendation in this Committee's report." <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Mr. Crawford: "I would like to call your attention that the <br />Committee had suggestions from several Congress- <br />men and there was no dissent on this point." <br /> <br />Mr. Dutcher: <br /> <br />Mr. Bailey: <br /> <br />Mr. Hunter: <br /> <br />Mr. Bailey: <br />Mr. Pughe: <br /> <br />Mr. Dutcher: <br /> <br />"I think that you ought to know that it was esti- <br />mated that such a campaign would cost over <br />$100,000, and it was thought ~hat Colorado <br />wouilld have to pay its share of over 51.75~.

How would that <br />involve us? _ That is the thing I got to thinking <br />about after our Committee meeting." <br /> <br />"The Upper Colorado River Commission has been urged <br />to expand itself within its present financial. <br />limitations." <br /> <br />Mr. Pughe: "It seems that we might involve ourselves. We <br />might have to fight through something else. <br />Would we be getting into something there?" <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Mr. Crawford: "Everyone knows it is the amount of money the <br />Commission has budgeted at this time." <br /> <br />Mr. Pughe: <br /> <br />"What is the total of our budget?" <br />
