<br />121 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />that those people are keenly sensitive to the fact that this enor- <br /> <br /> <br />mous river a~d all its ramifications shown on this map is a re- <br /> <br /> <br />source rising and flO1ding Hithin Colorado, ,lhich they feel they <br /> <br /> <br />have, a just right to use to the extent of their nocessities, know- <br /> <br /> <br />ing as they do the natural conditions that force a limitation <br /> <br /> <br />upon them that is more effective than all the compacts we could <br /> <br /> <br />enter into -- that is, the limitations brought by nature herself. <br /> <br /> <br />Their tendency Hould be to look with a great deal of suspicion <br /> <br /> <br />upon any other limitation. <br /> <br /> <br />~ffi. HOOVER: Our one desire is to find something that is just <br /> <br /> <br />bet"men all. I Hould like to know what Nr. Norviel's opinion is <br /> <br /> <br />as to Mr. Carpenter's proposal. <br /> <br /> <br />HR, NORVillL: It is the same proposal that he has made 011 'the <br /> <br /> <br />~~y along, that they do' not propose to be limited by anything <br /> <br /> <br />except nature and at the same ti",e they are undertaking to go be- <br /> <br /> <br />yond that. He comes back ahlays to the same point ,-- we cannot <br /> <br /> <br />be limited by anything but the natural limitation that the Maker <br /> <br /> <br />of the World has given us. That is about all I have to say. Ido <br /> <br /> <br />not think my people would agree at least to taking any water out <br /> <br /> <br />of the basin if He must give up to the full limitations of nature, <br /> <br /> <br />They certainly would not allow going beyond nature in that part <br /> <br /> <br />of the country. I hope He can get along Hithout that, but it seems <br /> <br /> <br />to be insistent. <br /> <br />... <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br />. <br /> <br />\~ . <br />
