FURTHER CONFERENCE
OF The WATER USERS
Committee of Sixteen Acts on Two of
the Resolutions Recently Submitted,
But Defers Making Rules For Board
of Review Until Thursday.

The committee of sixteen held a
meeting yesterday morning for the
purpose of considering the resolutions
presented TO it at the previous meet
ing. for the changing OF certain fea-
lures of its original report. as the re-
suit of the work and study of a repre-
sentative gathering OF water users
that have been giving the situation
earnest study during the last few
weeks.
Two OF the three resolutions pre-
sented relative to the amendment OF
certain articles in the original report.
and which were printed In full i'm this
paper on the morning of May 10. were
adopted. The third resolution, prOvid-
ing for the appointment Of a board of
review of five members. by the presi-
dent and chairman of the council, was
discussed and modified but not formal
~ acted upon.
1t was proposed that the board of
review be appointed TO correct any err
rors that may have been made in the
classification of lands in the original
report. This board was to have been
given full power to act under certain
conditions. Yesterdays discussion re-
suited in a changing of the boards
power so that instead of finally max
ing these changes the board should be
required to report the changes back
to the entire committee IF sixteen for
its approval. Its work is also to be
done in accordance with certain rules
to be made by the committee. which
rules have not yet been formally acted
upon and adopted, but it is expected
they will be at the next lheeting which
will be on Thursday morning at 3
O'Clock. TO which time the committee
adjourned.
The question of changing the water
table was also discussed at length.
Some were opposed to making any
change but others felt that an injus-
tice had been done i'm certain in
stances and that now is the time to
correct the error before the report is
finally submitted to the people for
their approval and endoi sement.
The members of the board OF review
have not yet been appointed but their
names will probably be announced at
the Thursday meeting.
