<br />. , <br />} <br /> <br />.",-. <br /> <br />~ <br />u <br /> <br />,-. <br />'-' <br />M <br /> <br />-11- <br /> <br />C:.':' <br /> <br />o <br /> <br />just as the Hoover or Boulder Project is working. <br /> <br />So I say to you here today, the great challenge that faces us is <br /> <br />the maximum use of our resources, whatever they are and whatever they may <br /> <br />possibly be. We have been careless, and we have been extravagant in too <br /> <br />many ways, and when the time comes along, we have got to stop it. Imagine <br /> <br />the waste of wll.ter in the Colorado today. If we are to replenish the raridly <br /> <br />diminishing fundamental wealth of this country, we must lose no opportunity <br /> <br />to put our money to work for us, here in this country on reimbursable proj- <br /> <br />ects that are made up of the good, solid substance of fundamental American <br /> <br />enterprise. The scornful use of the term fantastic in relation to the <br /> <br />Central Arizona Project, as will be the phrase applied to your own, is as <br /> <br />negative as any attitude can possibly be. <br /> <br />As political leaders, our first <br /> <br />responsibility to the nation is to build -- and please catch this phrase __ <br /> <br />not according to political expediency, but in spite of political expediency. <br /> <br />The States of Arizona and Utah have already made great contributions to the <br /> <br />wealth and the general welfare of this nation, and we are volunteering for <br /> <br />additional service. All we ask is our legal right to our own property, to <br /> <br />use as it is stipulated that we may use it in a document to which our entire <br /> <br />signatures are attached, - The Santa Fe Contract. <br /> <br />Thank you very much. <br />
