<br />UR. HOOVER: After discussionyestcrday between the differ- <br /> <br />ent groups, we arrived last evening at a'series of rough principles <br /> <br />upon which we felt we ,had secured agreement and which should com- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />prise the basis of a compaot. I would suggost that I should read <br /> <br />the memorandum in tho final form in whieh we left it paragraph <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />by paragraph and soe if we are now broadly, in agreement. We all <br /> <br />understand that this is subject to draftinij, that the ,statements <br /> <br /> <br />here are in many cases rather crUde, but so, long as they convoy <br /> <br />our ideas, that is a sufficient statement. It does ombrace the <br />" <br /> <br />primary ideas upon which wo are in agreement. <br /> <br />The first paragraph is: <br /> <br />"The Colorado River Basin shall bo censidered as embracing <br /> <br />all of tho territory te whieh ,tho waterso:i:' the river and its' <br /> <br />tributaries can be beneficially applied." <br /> <br />I think we 'might proceod by way of a motion en those clauses. <br /> <br />. <br />I <br /> <br />1m.
