CHAIRMAN HOOVER: Yes, you ean have "and" (referring to par. (b).)
MR. CAlDi'IELL: That "apportionment" is an apportionment of something
olse.. I think we should change that a li~tle.
JUDGE SLOAN: We are not dividing tho. consumptivo boneficial use of

.,

If

.wators.

. CHAlRUAN HOOVEn: This is Hr.. Squi::EJ's proposal, .in ordor to bring

this definitely into tune with Art. 3. It would read ~Itho torms "appor-

tionment" and "apportioned" mean tho division for consumptive bonoficial

use of the waters of the Colorado.,River System."

JUDGE SLOAN: I think he meant the division of the consumptive bene-

ficial use of water.

CHAlRIL\N HOOVER: He vrants to"get it in, tune with A:rt. 3. He wants

a division of the beneficial consumptive use of, the vraters of the Colorado

niver.

I,m. EHffiSOlJ: But itisr,'t that.

lm. CARPEN1'ER:, Division of>the waters for ,beneficial consumptiv?

use isvrhat.it says.

lm. EMEnSON: I think the error is in Art. 3 rather ,than, in the

definition.

1m. DAVIS: I raised the point this aftornoon and I ,again raise it.

As I have run through the compact I don I t find that that nord is used

anyvvhere except in Art. 3.

CHATIilt\N HOOVER: Apportionment?

,1m. D,WIS: , ,\pportioned, unless it says "hereby."

CitURI,L\NIiObVER:' In .\rt; 8 any way we draft it .re are geingto use,

it two or three .times.

1m. DAVIS: Without the use of the words "hereby apportioned."

Outside of Art. 8 there is no necessity for that dofinition at all. What

l\rt. 8 may have I don I t knoy,.
