<br />001J~n <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />", <br /> <br />+> <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />the most important reason for the construotion of the <br /> <br /> <br />Boulder Dam, needed for the proteoticn of thousands' of <br /> <br /> <br />people, their homes, their property and their lives, <br /> <br /> <br />In addition to these practical things the recrea- <br /> <br /> <br />tional advantages must not be overlooked, and its proximity <br /> <br /> <br />to Mead Lake inoreases the recreational advantages of Mead <br /> <br /> <br />Lake and adds to the happiness of thousands of people who <br /> <br /> <br />might see fit to visit this region, <br /> <br /> <br />It is true that the map of the Hualapai Indian <br /> <br /> <br />Reservation shows that the dBJJ1 and resulting reservoir are <br /> <br /> <br />upon the reservation. A glanoe, however, at the map will <br /> <br /> <br />show at onoe that this fact should not in anywise interfere <br /> <br /> <br />with the applioation. Without a doubt in the world, the <br /> <br /> <br />Colorado River was ohosen as the northern boundary line of <br /> <br /> <br />the reservation for no other reason than it afforded an <br /> <br /> <br />almost impassable barrier from north to south and vice versa <br /> <br /> <br />and a line easy of ascertainment. We sul)mit the building of <br /> <br /> <br />the dam and the filling of the reservoir could not affect <br /> <br /> <br />the reservaticn exoept beneficially, <br /> <br /> <br />When all these things are considered and correctly <br /> <br /> <br />added we cannot but feel that the result obtained therefran <br /> <br /> <br />leads us to the )JeHef that not only should there be no <br /> <br /> <br />objection to our filing fran our sister states but that we <br /> <br /> <br />should find these sister states standing solidly with us in <br /> <br />19. <br />
