<br /> <br />MR. NORVIEL: I can see this advantage in having a de- <br /> <br />finite time fixed that at the time of the revision all states <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />would be prepared, whereas, if there was no definite time <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />fixed, none of them would be prepared, and they would have to <br /> <br /> <br />prepare after the call ~Ias made. I think it ~lOuld be very <br /> <br />much better to have a definite time fixed in the compact for <br /> <br />a commission, or whatever way they would want to do it at that <br /> <br />time. They could then meet together and say that it is work- <br /> <br />ing out satisfactorily and we will let it go over another <br /> <br />period. <br /> <br />HR. CAWWELL: Another hundred years ? <br /> <br />MR. HOOVER: We could accomplish that by having sufficient- <br /> <br />ly long notice of the call. I should think that some notice of <br /> <br />the call might be advantageous because it gives time for de- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />velopment of fact and opinion. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />MR. ClIRPENrER: In the matter of machinery for ascertain- <br /> <br />ing the facts, our present system covers the development of about <br /> <br /> <br />forty years. Starting from zero '<Ie have arrived at our present <br /> <br />position. Now it is to be presumed that the present machinery <br /> <br /> <br />will be more and more perfected, so that a two year period <br /> <br />would be adequate time in which to assemble the data for the <br /> <br />convention. For example, Ill!'. Norviel, in my state, adminis- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />tration has developed the fact that it is wise to put automatic <br /> <br />registers on every canal along a river like the Platte. If that <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />had been broached twenty years ago it would have been impossible <br /> <br />of accomplishment. NOH, that would be the natural outcome, a <br /> <br />matter of the outgrowth of intense local administration, and <br />14th-S.F. <br />21 <br /> <br />167 <br />
