Las Vegas - June 19, 1950 W 23-1-C Mr. Wm. Reinhardt: Max Kelch, owner of radio station KENO, telephoned this morning that a public forum would be aired here the night of June 27th on the subject "Will the growth of Las Vegas be limited by shortage of water?" He requests a representative of the Water Company be present together with one from the Water District and one from the City of Las Vegas. A five-minute prepared statement will be read by each after which the meeting will be thrown open to questions by the public. Do you feel that a representative of the Water Company should attend? A. M. Folger
