<br />1~4tl <br /> <br />MR. SPARKS: <br />MR. CHRISTY: <br /> <br />'MR. BARNARD,JR.: <br /> <br />the medium for us to propagandize, if <br />you want to use that word. Because here is <br />an organization in the west, the word west <br />has been taken out in order to endeavor to <br />get some of the good people in the east I <br />back of this natural resources accomplishment. <br />There is no fund obligated but it is a <br />medium and a sounding board through which <br />you might be able to have your problems . <br />heard and it is set up basically right now <br />to fight wilderness. I can envision that <br />there is a lot of reclamation programs in <br />the west that might be suitable for them <br />and you are right on your own reservation. <br />If you keep them advised as to what you are <br />doing then you've got a sensible source and <br />a united front.

They are a team and they <br />are powerful." <br /> <br />?Along this line before any specific <br />action is proposed I would like to discuss <br />(I had it down when I talked about what we <br />did at the Congress but this seems to be a <br />more appropriate time) the fact that there <br />is a hearing on this proposed legislation to- <br />day in Salt Lake City. I had an opportunity <br />to go but I didn't as I thought I should be <br />at this meeting. Also because of the fact <br />there were several Colorado groups to be re- <br />presented at the Salt Lake hearing and it <br />seemed to me to be better tactics, if this <br /> <br />I <br />
