<br />.. <br /> <br />States. In the very vlording of the Congressional Act, tha~in- <br /> <br /> <br />ference'is carried directly.' I will continue to maintain my pos- <br /> <br /> <br />i tion that it is going to take a more or less uniform system of <br /> <br /> <br />analysis, not Sb fine but Vlhat we can obtain same without any. <br /> <br /> <br />great amoUnt of effort, say in the next six months. I ,would have <br /> <br /> <br />seconded Mr. McClure's motion this morning if I had thought there <br /> <br /> <br />was any possibility of passing the necessary approving legislation <br /> <br /> <br />in the different States, when Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and <br /> <br /> <br />Nevada take such exception. So there is no use in passing a mot- <br /> <br /> <br />ion of that kind. I am convinced, hOj.rever, that Vie can arrive at <br /> <br /> <br />a fair amount of acreage. . I want to say that I do not expect one <br /> <br /> <br />thing to go over that vIould militate against Hyoming' s ;interest, <br /> <br /> <br />I feel that we should be able to get together. This,Commission <br /> <br /> <br />is missing a great opportunity if they don't get together but <br /> <br /> <br />stick out too much on their own particular ideas on this thing:, <br /> <br /> <br />It is going to be a rough' guess on acreage, no doubt" but whether <br /> <br /> <br />Vie take Mr. Davis or Mr. Norviel's fi~ures, the agreement will <br /> <br /> <br />result in the same thing. It will be the open door policy. How <br /> <br /> <br />can vIe think differently ",hen we are convinced that there is Wliter <br /> <br /> <br />supply for all. I am firmly of the opinion that it is. Our de~ <br /> <br /> <br />veiopment in the Upper States, no matter what they may be, will <br /> <br /> <br />not interfere jdth the lower states so long as Vie have a great <br /> <br /> <br />conservator of water in the form of a reservoir. The prime pur- <br /> <br /> <br />pose of this meeting should be confined, if possible, to a basis to <br /> <br /> <br />work from on an agreement as to the rights of the different States <br /> <br /> <br />and the protection of these rights. If we find that a reservoir <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />. <br />. <br /> <br />99 <br /> <br />1>1. <br />
