<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />not take away any policy making powers other- <br />wise given to an agency by statute'. No one <br />has adequately defined, so far as I am concerned, <br />what that means yet but the statute should be <br />kept in mind by the Board." <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />"Well, I'm not sure where that gets us. We <br />need a Philadelphia lawyer now to straighten us <br />all out." <br /> <br />MR. SARGENT: "May I ask a question, Mr. Stapleton?" <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: "Yes, Mr. Sargent." <br /> <br />MR. SARGENT: "I'd like to ask either Mr. Moses or Mr. <br />Barnard whether or not the state statute, which <br />they cited which creates the Upper Colorado <br />River Commission, is different in language than <br />the Act of Congress which created the Upper <br />Colorado River commission and approved the Upper <br />Colorado River Compact which is Public Law 37, <br />passed by Congress April 6, 1949, 63 Statutes <br />131?1I <br /> <br />MR. BARNARD, JR.: "I've not read that particular section of <br />the Compact. Of course, it's the same whether <br />it's printed in our statutes or in the federal <br />statutes. The appointment of the Commissioner <br />is provided by state statute. It is not part <br />of the Compact. In other words, this statute <br />is a part of the same statute which ratifies <br />the Compact as far as Colorado is concerned. <br />Although I'll confess that I have not read the <br />federal statute approving the Compact." <br /> <br />MR. SARGENT: "I wonder if it would be possible for us to <br />get a copy' of 63 Statutes '31 for this meeting?" <br /> <br />MR. BARNARD, JR.: "We don't have it in our office. We would <br />have to get it out of the Supreme Court library <br />and that might take an Act of Congress." <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />"I think we can get it. We may be here for <br />a while at least. lfuat is the citation?" <br /> <br />MR. SARGENT: <br /> <br />"63 Statutes '31." <br />
