gresham Garner were read, the
Texas representative urging that
Valley irrigation interests immedi-
ately get in touch with their sena-
tors and apprise them of the impor-
lance Of inclusion Of the amendment
in the senate bill or passage by the
senate Of the original house bill.
Frank Robertson expressed the
view that unless the Boulder Dam
bill contained the Valley amendment
II would prove highly prejudicial 70
the Valley interests in negotiating
a treaty with Mexico for division of
waters on the Rio Grande. He point
ed out that present ALLEGATIONS Of
water on the American side exceeded
the normal flow Of tho Colorado and
would leave Mexico virtually without
water from that urce While the
provisions of a treaty would be SUI
perior 10 such ALLEGATIONS, he stat
ed, yet the fact that the Boulder
Dam bill made no reference to Mex
lean rights would prove very preju-
dicial and doubtless would have con-
siderable weight with Mexico in con-
nection with the treaty negotiations,
he stated.
Attorneys attending were r. r.

the major part Of the flow originates
on the Mexican side. The house
passed the with the amend
ment. but the amendment has been
excluded by the senate committee
and is not contained in the bill now
pending in the senate.
CONGRESSMAN John ". Garner has
given assurance that in the event
the bill passes the senate in its pres
ent form he will make an effort to
include the amendment when il is
brought into conference in an effort
to restore the original provisions of
the house bill.
The opinion was expressed by
Frank Robertson, secretary Of the
associated districts, that the amend
ment was excluded by opponents Of
the bill on the senate committee. He
cited the fact that Senator Johnson,
co.author OF the measure with Con-
Swing. had endeavored TO
substitute the house measure for the
bill reported by the committee, and
that the senate might adopt the
original measure. Mr.. Robertson
stated hat il was imperative that
the Valley irrigation interests indi-
cate to the Texas senators the ne
cessity for inclusion of the amend
ment in order to protect American
interests in other international
streams in which Mexico has an in
terest.
