<br />1222 <br /> <br />MR. SPARKS: <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />should be a good representation at this <br />convention and that no one on this Board <br />ought to feel diffident about accepting <br />the responsibility of going or accepting <br />the reimbursement of the cost of going to <br />it. This convention brings to it people I <br />from allover the western United States . <br />whose interests are identical with ours in the <br />deve10pment of the West. It is a very worth- <br />while, wholesome experience to go there. I <br />would hope that especially the Vice-Chairman <br />of this Board would be present to represent <br />the State of Colorado. The Governor has so <br />many demands made upon him that it is <br />pretty near impossible to ask him to go <br />everywhere but certainly it would be desirable <br />to send as many members as you could.

You may think it is a little late but <br />we can nevertheless do it - so if any of you <br />want to come in and talk about it later today, <br />please do so." <br /> <br />"The Governor has suggested that if there <br />are enough members of this Board who would like <br />to go, he could possibly make the arrangements <br />for the use of the Guard plane. It seats 15 <br />people and I have been trying to work out my <br />personal schedule to go down there and the <br />transportation down and back is not too good. <br />I would think that maybe if there were enough <br />of us that could go with a limited amount of <br />time - I know that is a problem for all of us - <br />we might keep that in mind and discuss it <br />later on in the meeting which brings up another <br />point. I would like, if it meets with the <br /> <br />I <br />
