<br />MR. EMERSON: The drafting committee, I had hoped, would <br /> <br />say something like "The Colorado Rivor Basin shall bo oonsider- <br /> <br />ed as embraoing all of the land drained by the Colorad.o Hiver <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />and its tributaries, and in addition - <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />1m. C~RPENTER: We understand <br /> <br />J,ffi. EiJERSON: It is all right if you understand these things. <br /> <br />HR. HOOVER, It would bo. useful to have lVir. Emerson I s rc'- <br /> <br />marks in the reoord. <br /> <br />1Ul. CARPENTER: I interrupted you, Mr. Emerson, beforo you <br /> <br />finishod. I oeg your pardon,. <br /> <br />MR. E1TGRSON Your apology is aooepted. <br /> <br />1m. CALDymLL: I understand that this doesn't mean merely <br /> <br />applied to the lands, but that it oan be used for any purpose <br /> <br />within the meaning of the oompaot. <br /> <br />1m; ElffiRSON: I oelieve the~e should be a limitation thero <br /> <br />. <br />. <br /> <br />upon the oharaoter of the use. We wouldn't want wator diverted <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />from the Colorado Basin for power purp~ses. <br /> <br />JAR. HOOVER, Under the provisions'here, of priorities I <br /> <br /> <br />should think it would be pessib1e fer agriou1tura1 and domestio <br /> <br />usos ,te stc'p pewer uses that interfer,e with agriou1 tura1 and <br /> <br />demestio uses. If there is nething mere on that paragraph, we <br /> <br />will go on to the next. <br /> <br />"2. Tho Basin is dividod into tJ:\e Uppor and Lewer Divisions <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />at a point immediately bo1ow tho mouth of the Paria." <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Jm.
