<br />100 100 <br /> <br />is necessary, vie riJight say so and go tl'\at far; I might say no <br /> <br />farther at this time as to the means of' building that reservoir. <br /> <br />That is a little ahead of us. As far ds 'dyoriJing is concerned, I <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />, ' <br />can subscribe to an understanding upon Ian acreage basis. <br />, <br /> <br />MR. HOOVER: Here is a large comm~nity in Southern California <br /> <br />in great jeopardy. I have to look at this matter from a more <br /> <br />w <br /> <br />national point of view than some of yo~. This Commission has been <br />i <br />set up after great effort and great hopes are centered upon it; <br />I <br />I <br />that we may reach a solution of these 90nflicting rights and that <br />we may give stimulus to immediate reli$f. It would seem a great <br />misfortune if we dissolved the Commission without at 'least agree- <br /> <br />, . <br />ing upon so primary a necessity as a c?ntrol reservoir. This whole <br /> <br />business is utterly fruitless if we cabnot agree on a simple state- <br />! <br /> <br />ment of an obvious fact. <br /> <br />The construction of this work should be <br />, <br /> <br />expedited at the earliest possible mom~nt under such conditions as <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />. will give priority to flood control and irrigation over questions <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />of power and its very construction <br /> <br />eas!,s <br />i <br />I <br />, <br /> <br />the whole question of <br /> <br />" <br />water rights. <br /> <br />MR. E!fJERSON: I may not have made'myself clear. If it is the <br /> <br />, . <br />opinion of the different interests her~ and the different states <br /> <br />represented that <br /> <br />a reservoir is necessflry upon that river to prop- <br />water rights above an~ below, we should say so, , <br />I <br /> <br />erly protect the <br /> <br />and this meeting should at least find a basis to work from in that <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />respect. <br /> <br />. <br />
