FORM 219 KB 10-47-750M “Time MU UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY, TELEGRAM BOO - 1 E Bennett AES t Omaha cy WKR, WHH Omaha S-351. The question of reservation of mineral jrights has noever "been "brought up in connection with proposed sale of Water Facilities at Las Vegas; I think it would be a mistake to inject this into the present negotiations as it would offer another target for the Objectionists in the area of which there are already plenty. ; In addition, our studies indicate that the possibilities of oil and gas production in the Las Vegas Valley are remote, and even if such possibilities were good,; the lands included in the proposed sale to the District are so located structurally as to almost exclude the possibilities of their being productive.
