<br />RAPHAEL J. MOSES <br /> <br />ments in water rights will be involved. Water needs and problems can best be studied and solved at the <br />lowest practicable political level. <br /> <br />The establishment and continuance of a body where honest men with differing views can ex- <br />press freely their thoughts, has not been easy, nor will it be easy. Those without water will be impa- <br />tient with those who have water, and those who have water are fearful of those who lack water. <br /> <br />Two years ago, the thirty-three members of the C01.jncil were like so many strange dogs newly <br />arrived at a pound. There were many stiff-legged inspections, some snarls, and no cooperation. Now <br />we are at least friends, we respect the positions of the oth~rs, even when we do not agree with those <br />positions. The snarls are gone and we are communicating with each other. This, to me, is progress. I <br />think progress will continue and that the rate of progress will improve. <br /> <br />But it will take statesmanship, patience, good natljre and luck to bring it off. We seek your <br />continuing support, advice and forbearance. <br /> <br /> <br />-46- <br />
