<br />, <br /> <br />UOiJ50 ~ <br /> <br />J <br /> <br />MR. SCOTT I The point is, that I feel that 'tho Colorado River <br />Board of California probably has sane influenoe with the Legisla'turo. Tho <br />point is, are we jus't Wll.s'ting 'time disoussing this. I am oonvinced toot <br />i't is nothing 'that the Commi'ttee of Four'teen can do. It is a matter for <br />Nevada, California end Arizona. The Upper Basin boys are vi'tally in'terested <br />in this thing. <br /> <br />MR. E. F. SCATTERGOOD I (Bureau of Power and Light, Los Angeles) <br />Speaking for California, I suppese in two years the extension would be up? <br /> <br />MR. DAVISI It is around March 1st. <br /> <br />MR. SCATTERGOOD: Our legislature will next be rnee'ting in January, <br />1941, whioh would be two man'ths a.head of that even it they do not aot on <br />it at this' session or do no't have a special session. I do not think they will <br />be idle in too meantime and doing nothing. <br /> <br />MR. SCOTTI That answers my question. Thank you. <br /> <br />MR. DE AA40lIDl Too NevadD. Legislature meets a little bit ahead <br />of it. The Nevada Legsilature meets about the S!llll8 time as the Arizona <br />Legislature. I was cantusedabout 'the CaUfornio. Legisla'ture ow:I.ng 1:0 the <br />faot that it is now in session. I _s just wondering if 'too COllIIIlit'tee of <br />Four'teen, care anything about it. <br /> <br />GOVERNOR H.AJolNETT I We ore oertainly intGreswd in seeing <br />ArizelU). join with the rest ot 'too states. <br /> <br />CHAIRMAN STONE I I think that Governor Hanne'tt has sto.ted this <br />oorreo'tly. We will all be workmg muoh be'tter end wo all ,should be <br />interested in it it it is possible 'to work this thing out. Too three <br />lower states should work together so that Arizona oan beoome a signntory <br />to too Coloro.do River Compa.ot. We are oertainly interestod to 'that extent. <br /> <br />Answering tho ques'tion as 'to whether or not this is just an <br />idle gesture, I beliovo tha't thoro has beon some honest offort made to <br />work ou't 'this pro blem. 1olr. Soat'torgood statod 'that the legislature <br />meets again in 1941 and that this Act providos for a pessible extensiom <br />for ana year. Is that correot, Mr. Do.vis? <br /> <br />MR. DAVIS: Yas. <br /> <br />CHAIRMAN BTOllEl So that it is P ossiblo if the 'timing, as <br />expressed by Mr. 8001;1;, is 'to be 'takon in'to oansidera.'tion, every effort <br />can bc made to gst 'togo'ther and perhaps disouss it among 'the 'threa s'ta'tes <br />and see what possiblli'ty 'thore is for roaching o.n agreEllllen't. Is 'tha't righ't. <br />Mr. Hewes? <br /> <br />MR. HEWES: I would say tha't every offort is being made among <br />the three oOllllllissions to deoido on the aotion to be 'taken under the <br />legislation passed by Arizona. Naturally, 1dIa.taver the result of tha't; <br />action is, it will 'then dCJl;ormino the wgotiations that will fOllow. <br /> <br />I 'WOuld also likD tor the record to show thnt as far a.s my own <br />answer 1:0 Mr. Sco't-\:;ts question is oCllcernod the statement made by <br />Governor Hannett is the cally s'tntement that e.nyone could make in answer <br />te that question where it involves the aotion of someone else or what they <br />migh1; do. <br />
