<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />4 <br /> <br />1m. HOOVER:, Vfuat' would bo the most favorable situation, <br /> <br />July or January? <br /> <br />MR. Em:ffiRSON: As I think of it now it would be toward the end <br /> <br />of the flood vmter season and before the low water season, and our <br /> <br />flow would be limited. That is if we have to face the conditions <br /> <br />where we must turn an oxtra amount of water dovm we can do it <br /> <br />better when we have reservos than we can when our water supply <br /> <br />is depleted by nature. <br /> <br />MR. HOOVER: I should think it would be moro suitable to <br /> <br />the southern states, as well, to make it July, because any water <br /> <br />after that date doesn't do them much good for storage. <br /> <br />l1R. Ct~PENTER; That might be said to begin en the first day <br /> <br />of a certain month following the final ratification. <br /> <br />l~. HOOVER: tilld it is inclusive of the nine previous years. <br /> <br />MR. CARPENTER: Yes, it is a progrossive ten year period. <br /> <br />MR. NORVIEL: Mr. Chairman, I can't get away from tho idea that <br /> <br />the figures are too low. Vfuilo there is in it an olemont of a <br /> <br />guaranty it is lower than the lowest ten year period we have any <br /> <br />knowledge of and it is also aftor the division ismade,- after the <br /> <br />wholo use in the upper division is taken out and Vlould include <br /> <br />the total use in the 10vlOr division. In other words, it is tho excess <br /> <br /> <br />over and above what tho upper states havo not horotoforo used, and, <br /> <br />thon, it is less than half of tho lowost ten year period that has' <br /> <br />ever oxistod. <br /> <br />MR. CARPENTER: That VfQ have any rocord of. <br /> <br />144 <br /> <br />, 18th-S.F.. <br />31 <br />
