We had a round table conference with the Chamber cf Commerce, State Engineer, City and County authorities regarding the conservation of water In this basin, and we took the liberty of reading a portion' of your report warning them of the danger of taking water out of the subterranean channel faster than rate of recharge. I sea sure the meeting did a great deal of good toward a mutual understanding of this question. The State Engineer has not yet set a date for the formal hearing but he has agreed to give us at least 15 days notice.
