Referring to your letter of January 10, 1952, file 80-11, commenting on Mr. Hulsizer’s letter to Mr. Stoddard of January 7th: Mr* Sutton has now responded to the President*is inquiries of December 10th and January 15th and has confined his comments to the effect, tax-wise, of the proposal set out in Mr* Hulsizer’s letter of January 7th, but his comments are, as indicated in Note 1, page 2 of his letter, a copy of which I attach, conditioned on a determination being made that the Las Vegas Water District has the right to exercise a part of the sovereign power of the State of Nevada so as to qualify as a political subdivision within the provisions of Regulation 111 referred to* I will appreciate it if you will give this matter prompt consideration and advise with respect to Mr* Sutton’s query.
