<br />95 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />NR. CALDWELL: You previously said, Nr. McClure, that something <br /> <br /> <br />I said sounded like a stall. I wonder if I understand what you <br /> <br /> <br />mean? <br /> <br />4t <br />.. <br /> <br />MR. l1cCLURE: I mean as far as making progress at this meet- <br />ing is concerned. <br />MR. CALD,ffiLL: I do not believe we are going to progress to <br /> <br /> <br />a ,real basis at this meeting. <br /> <br /> <br />MR. HOOVER: While i,e Hait for I1r. Carpenter, there is one <br /> <br /> <br />matter that, I believe we should give immediate attention. We <br /> <br /> <br />ought not to let this meeting break up without bringing in a <br /> <br /> <br />broad visioned constructive plan in general terms so as to ad- <br /> <br /> <br />vance the whole subject, at the same time not asking anyone to <br /> <br /> <br />commit himself as to water division. I would like to submit the <br /> <br /> <br />following: <br /> <br /> <br />;lliereas, the full utilitzation of the Colorado River is de- <br /> <br /> <br />pendent upon the construction of large control and storage works <br /> <br /> <br />at some point in the Grand Canyon, and <br /> <br /> <br />Whereas, it is vital for flood control and irrigation as <br /> <br /> <br />to the states below that point, <br /> <br /> <br />Whereas, the present situation in the Imperial Valley is one <br /> <br /> <br />of great jeopardy and urgently demands the construction of these <br /> <br /> <br />works in protection of life and property, <br /> <br /> <br />Whereas, the settlement of the respective ldater rights of <br /> <br /> <br />all states in the Basin would be simplified by the construction <br /> <br /> <br />of such flood control and storage. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br />. <br /> <br />W. <br />
