I don't seo any at this momont. <br /> <br /> <br />CIUilll/L\.N HOOVER: The Indian question we have elearly set out, <br /> <br /> <br />I think, settled that. <br /> <br /> <br />till. U;.J.lELE: That has been specifically referred to in the propos()d compact. <br /> <br /> <br />UH. SCIWG!J:a.l: Hr. Chairman, I think arc' paragraph in arc' nay sanctioning <br /> <br /> <br />the claim of the federal government to all the unappropriated wat()rs rrould <br /> <br /> <br />cause the compact to be defeated ;n all the intermountain states. <br /> <br /> <br />till.

I-L\I.1ELE: That is true. <br /> <br />., <br /> <br />CrL".ll'J,L\N HOOVER: It would seem to be a very doubtful necessity to make <br /> <br /> <br />this compact, nouldn't you think Lir. Bamele, for these states to attempt to <br /> <br /> <br />divide the wator at L5 years hence, the unappropriated water, if the federal <br /> <br /> <br />government had poners to do it? <br /> <br /> <br />1m.
