<br />"'.JV~ <br /> <br />Congressman Aspinall would also like Governor <br />,Johnson to see his position. The Governor <br />again informed me that he was not interested <br />in that position. I then again begged him to <br />postpone the adoption of the resolution for a <br />day or two at least. He said it was not possible <br />to postpone the action any further. <br /> <br />During the lunch hour the New Mexico repre- <br />sentatives had apparently prepared further <br />amendments to the resolution and finally the <br />various amendments as proposed by New Mexico <br />were agreed upon.

Also at that time <br />commissioner Johnson went to the telephone and <br />called Mr. Patterson and arranged for a meeting <br />in the Argonaut Hotel next door. I went over <br />to the State Capitol anc secured the services <br />of the secretary there and the final form of the <br />resolution was typed up in several copies. I <br />then returned to the meeting room at the State <br />Office Building. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br />
