Transcription
o In oonneotion with sale of water property, Mr. Cory advises me that he had a further talk with Fred Gibson, President of Basic Management, Ino. supplementing our conference with him of last week. Mr. Gibson stated that Basic Management, Ino. would not enter into an open end contract to supply the Townsite of Henderson with unlimited water and that they would endeavor to limit such supply to five million gallons a day. Mr. Gibson also advised Mr. Cory that he had a talk with Counollman LaPorta, Dickson (?) and Van Wagonnen, a majority of the members on the Council, who stated they felt Henderson should get behind the bond issue and that they felt that if the majority of the Council would so determine, that the Mayor of Henderson would come down off of his high-horse and go along with the majority of the Council. MEMORANDUM E.E.B. 8-14-53
