E. JensenFresno, California 93725 Gentlemen:
Enclosed is a copy of the room reservation confirmation for the NWRA convention to which was attached the slip indicating need for a $15.00 deposit to be sent directly to the designated hotel.
Following the instruction, as published in NWRA's Water Life publication of August 1974, Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District check No. 25981 in the amount of $15.00, and made payable to NWRA Fresno Convention, was enclosed with my reservation request which was forwarded by letter of
October 7, 1974.
Perhaps, I should also note that, on the same date, Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District check No. 25982 in the amount of $225.00 was forwarded to cover deposit of $15.00 per reservation for the fifteen couples listed in an attachment to that letter.
1 would hope that your notice for required deposit was not sent to each of those parties since they were advised that the deposit has been made in their behalf. Sincerely, J. R. Barkley, President JRB:ak Enclosure =ma

• I i • 4tia4 1 it•%er.oi i it C.7 14.? 14 Iicyrx,r)-FRESNO, Calif. (UPI) — The fact that prostitution is against the law in California didn't stop about 40 truckers from picketing to protest a price increase for the compa-ny of the ladies of the night.
Bearing picket signs and occasionally shouting earthy sayings as the girls drove by in autos, the men gathered outside a truck stop south of here objecting to the rise in
price from $10 three months ago to $25 now.
Only one man crossed the picket line during the four-hour demonstration Thursday night, and he was roundly jeered by the pickets.
One trucker said he was not against prostitution.
"I'm just against the prices they're charging." he said, asking not to be identified be-cause "my old lady may find out what I've been doing."

THE FRESNO HILTON Fresno, California
July 28, 1972
Mr. J. A. Riggins, Jr. 1st Vice President
National Water Resources Association 111 West Monroe
Phoenix, Arizona 85003 Dear Mr. Riggins:
Sorry to be so slow in answering your letter regarding the increase in the "price of sex". However, after constant meetings with the Teamsters and the Negotiating Committee for the "girls", I have been assured that, for the duration of your convention only, 1972 prices will remain in effect. One stipu-lation -- there must be a great enough volume to justify the lower rates or a flat guarantee will be charged. When this is agreed upon by the National Water Resources Association, I can assure you there will be no inflation.
If there are any questions or problems I can help you with, please call, and I will do my best to insure an equitable solution.
MM:
Thank you for your interest. Sincerely,
THE FRESNO HILTON

Re: Fresno Price Levels Dear i)irs.
Will you pletlise refer to my letter of June 17, 1972, enclosing an article taken from the Phoenix Gazette, headlined "INFLATION IN PRICE OF SEX SETS TRUCKERS PICKETING'. After more than a month, on July 28th you finally responded
--apparently after having spent many hours negotiating the issue with local people who are involved in this problem.
At the meeting of the Board of Directors of the National Water Resources Association in Billings, Montana, in August, I presented this matter to the Board, reading to them not only the newspaper article but our exchange of correspond-ence. Needless to say, the entire Board was relieved to receive the information that you had been assured that "for the duration of your convention only, 1972 prices will remain in effect".
However, the stipulation or condition attached to this guarantee has given us no end of trouble, and it is for that reason that you have not heard from me earlier. You have required that "there must be a great enough volume to justify the lower rates or a flat guarantee will be charged". You continue by suggaating that, when this is agreed upon by our organization, you can then assure that "there will be no inflation".
Needless to say, this has been not only a difficult matter to handle but also one which might be termed a "delicate"
Mrs. Millie Miller -2- November 11, 1972
matter to handle. The difficulty, of course, arises out of the fact that we have no idea what those -- who apparently are your "clients" -- consider to be a "great enough volume to justify lower rates". Nor have you provided us with any definite in-formation as to what would constitute a "flat guarantee" which would otherwise be charged.
Further, I am sure you realize that the average age and marital status of most of our members creates problems for us, both as to the matter of a guarantee and from a communica-tion standpoint. Our membership list, for the most part, is based on home addresses -- and responses from these addresses have been overwhelmingly negative on the entire matter, includ-ing a continued commitment to Fresno for '74.
Although we appreciate your assurance that the 1972 prices will remain in effect, we have been unable to obtain sufficient information or knowledge to assure you without equivocation as to the "volume" or "flat guarantee".
Even those who have responded affirmatively to our survey have shown some reluctance in making personal commit-ments without knowing more about the "truck stop" referred to in tne article. As you might suspect, many do not own trucks and, even though rental trucks, such as U-Haul, may be avail-able, most have not driven trucks for a period of many years and seem to have some question in their mind as to the neces-sity of going to these lengths to support the economy of the State of California and the Hilton Hotel system!
Consequently, I am sure that you can readily under-stand the present reluctance of our Board of Directors to
fulfill the commitment which was made at the Dallas Convention to hold our 1974 meeting in Fresno; and, since time is short, I would suggest that you plan to appear before the Board at our forthcoming meeting in Salt Lake City with such additional information and such authority as may be necessary to enter into any supplemental agreement which may be required under all these troubling circumstances.
JAR,JR:mm
Very truly yours,
J. A. Riggins, Jr.
First Vice President ana Arizona Director
P.S. Assuming that you will be arriving in Salt Lake City by truck -- will you please advise us as to the approximate time of your arrival, so that we can meet you at some appropriate truck stop and provide personal transporta-tion to your hotel in the downtown area.

Re:-ervoir cvaroration of 516,000 aere-feet per year from CRSP reser-voirs including 260000 acre-feet from Tilvajo Eeservoir is only a

We would also like to point out that the 5.8 .million acre-foot level of Upper Basin use ha z signific?.nce only in the fact that it has been used before in lister supply, power production, and rate and
reayrent studies for the Colorado River Storage Project. The attached projection of Upper Basin depletions indicates that Upper Basin use will reach the 5.8 HAF level by about 1992 or in about 18 years frost the present. The limit of Upper Basin use based on climatic conditions
strcamflow patterns that have occurred in the past would be deter-L-,ined by a period similar to the 34 years that occurred from 1931
through 1964. Such a storage-demmd drought could not develop by 1992. Therefore, the Unit of Upper BaGin use in 1992 is something greater than 5.8 MAF. Studies are under-any to determine the limit of use for each year through year 2005 as a means of better supporting our.

MEMO:
TO: NWRA PRESIDENT, EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, AND CONVENTION COORDINATOR
SUBJECT: SEATING AT SPEAKERS' TABLES
-RECD. •
NA 4 1974
Background:
The array of participants in the Fresno Program is impressive. Further to impress upon NWRA's members the identities and the sources of those participants, and also to facilitate the members using
Fresno to talk with those authorities, requires a comprehensive seating plan.
A Draft seating plan is on the attached sheets. Help Please!
The plan, with the explanations which follow, is furnished
to the addressees in solicitation of their advice to the Convention Coordinator. Only the Convention Committee has information on ar-rival and departure time of dignitaries, and on the size of speakers' tables practicable to the occasion. Also, on the Draft plan, the
presiding officers, masters of ceremonies, and special presentors are taken from the Convention Committee's official program.
Discussion:
The general aim in making seating assignments is explained on Worksheet "A" under "Comments".
Further, principal speakers on the morning programs are, as customary, accorded places at the head table for the luncheon. The same goes for Chairmen and principal participants on the afternoon
program; i.e., they are also seated at the luncheon preceding. The large number of notables requires that introductions of the non-speakers be briskly done, with notice to withhold applause until the end of the introductions.
It is likely that some NWRA workhorses, not presently
identifiable here, will participate in panel discussions. Hope-fully, the presiding officers will hedge by announcing that many panel contributors who are regular workhorses of NWRA have fore-gone seats at the speakers' table so not to prolong further the introductions, or some such.
Other dignitaries,about whom we have no notice here, may
show up. Of course, all Directors and the Host Committee will be alert to this, and notify the master of protocol, whom Mr. Barkley probably will appoint.
[The Executive Committee may consider having reproduced extra copies of the final seating plan for "take home" by Directors and Association officials. These plans, it
seems to me, help to explain the broad scope of authorita-tive interest in NWRA and its aims].
The Draft plan provides for ladies at the head table during the banquet. That in turn requires auxiliary tables near the speakers' table [See Worksheet "E"].
POINT: advance notice to those assigned speakers' tables is difficult. We have placed notices in boxes, but people forget to collect them. The surest method is personal notification, but it takes a lot of runners. Advance planning, as stated here, might
permit the Convention Committee to have final plans when registration opens; notables could be given seating slips with Convention packets.
-3-Finances:
NWRA's custom has been to waive registration fees on speakers, and also to accord them such meal tickets as they plan to use. Not wasting meal tickets on speakers who cannot attend merits direct contact through the Convention Committee, with aid from anybody and everybody.
As to.waiver of registration fees, and cost of official meals, I suggested to the Committee that the number of participants on work-shops calls for judicious interpretation. My suggestion was that, where NWRA members would be attending the Convention in any case,
NWRA's policy for waiver of registration and meal costs may not really pertain. For example, Mr. Homer Engelhorn of the Garrison Conservancy District plans to attend the Convention in any case. His participa-tion on the Environmental Educaparticipa-tion panel is not, in my view, a basis for waiving registration fee and giving free tickets. Mr. Engelhorn probably would agree with this -- as has Mr. Henry Vancik. Mr. Soren-sen was suggested as consultant to the Convention Committee on this issue.
Also, members of Committees on Capitol Hill tell me they cannot get reimbursement for registration fees -- getting travel and per diem is tough enough [Russ Brown, Senate IIA Committee just dropped out]. Customarily, NWRA has waived the registration fee for Capitol Hill staff. In fact, today I received a long-distance call from a Hill-staffer (in Mexico) asking about our policy. I reiterated it, as in the above, suggesting that surely he could buy his own meal tickets. No objection was stated.

TO: MEMBERS OF THE RESOLUTIONS COMMITTEE Gentlemen:
The Board of Directors' agenda for the Fresno meeting is now essentially finalized. The Board has tried to schedule its meetings and the work to be accomplished at those meet-ings in such a way that the Board members can be free during the days of the convention to not only attend the tours that are scheduled and also the business sessions. To meet this objective they have found it necessary to schedule their meet-ing with Gil Stamm, the Commissioner of Reclamation,. for 4:00 p.m. on Sunday afternoon. We have been invited to join them for that conference at that time.
In addition, while the Board has scheduled work during
the morning on Tuesday, arrangements have been made for a special bus for the Board to leave at noon for the luncheon for the tour of the irrigation project and the remainder or afternoon portion of that tour. In the hope that we can have our work done suf-ficiently that it will be possible for those who choose to do so to go on that tour I have asked that consideration be given to the provision of enough bus seating capacity to take care of those members of the Resolutions Committee who may want to join with the Directors on the shortened irrigation project tour. I am sure the arrangements people will be anxious to have a feel for the number of those who would be interested in par-ticipating that way and therefore request that all of you who are thus interested, let me know as soon as you can so that the arrangements programs can be made.
I will see you all at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, November 10, 1974 at our meeting room at the Sheraton Inn at Fresno.

Twin Falls, Idaho 83301 Dear John:
Bill Davey has pitched into the Land Use Symposium with the thoughtful warm-up, enclosed. This could relieve you of a "where we stand" address to those attending. The resulting schedule would be about as outlined to Len in the letter of this :.;ate, also enclosed.
Conklin is not yet certain as to whether he will be able to attend.
In response to questions as to w -ty N4RA is interested in legislation 'dead this sessiong, I have said that we
expect bills will be introduced next year. In anticipation, we wish to review the principles at issue, consider alterna-tives on the Hill and for NWRA, and select NdRA actions for 1975. The Symposium is to help NaRA members toward that aim [i.e., the S in osium, itself, is not asked to select a bill]. Please note a L. stated to Len Johnson,
od tlje foregoing rests on two assumptions: —that whatever Resolution on
Friday will De general
aLuP
is voted..that John Rosholt, with whatever aid he musters, will monitor the Symposium, will encourage dis-cussion along lines he thinks important, and will summarize for the Exec. Committee the significance of the Symposium.
ROSHOLT----2
I would volunteer to aic, you in the second assumption, but other workshops also may require attention. John Sayre is tied up on water rights. Clarence Base is quite opposed to any view but full opposition to Federal legislation, I believe.
But I think Vern Fany is informed on Land Use. Karl Liergner has been wrestling with a State resolution on the issue. Utah has a bill 6n the ballot. Dayle Williamson
of Nebraska is deeply involved, and plans on being in Fresno. Hal Schroeder, also of Nebraska, is up on the issues, and may be at hand.
In short, you might find appointing [either on-site or before] a couple of aids to help digest the rhetoric, so to counsel the Executive Committee for actions in 1975.

Dear Mr. Hahn:
In a conversation with Carl Bronn regarding well qualified
participants for an NWRA Convention panel to discuss criteria
for "Federal Investment In Water Development," Carl recommended
that we prevail upon you. As you undoubtedly know, this panel
is scheduled for 3100 p.m., Thursday, November 14.
At present we are asking yeu and Mr. Jack Pepper of the
Mississippi Board of Water COmmiseiOnere'to serve on the panel.
However, I anticipate that a third member will be designated
within a few days. We believe a logical approach will be to
have each panel member present his views on the subject in not
to exceed 10 minutes....then open the session for discussion from
the floor. Although the NWRA draft "National Water Investment
Act of 1974" could be an appropriate focal point, we certainly
do not want to restrict discussion to It or any other specific
proposal. Copies of the NWRA draft will be available for
atten-dees at our workshop.
We would greatly appreciate having you serve on this panel.
May we assume that your respOnes le affirmative unless you advise
me to the contrary via collect telephone call (303) 573-85727
In addition to your good i40014 Please bring to Fresno a

At present we are asking you and Mr. Fred Hahn, Department

As 8ob Barkley's October 2 memorandum suggested that you be notified regarding probable attendance at a meeting of your ad hoc committee the afternoon of November 11, the purpose of this latter is to express my preference on the subject. Although I would be happy to participate in discussions of NWRA funding problems, hopefully the meeting could occur at the conclusion of the tour to Yosemite Park.
I look forward to seeing you in Fresno.

National Water Resources Association P. O. Box 679
Loveland, Colorado 82537 Dear Bob:
With reference to the joint meeting of your organization and Water Resources Congress on November 10, 11 and 12 at Fresno, California, it is with great regret that I have to inform you that I cannot be present at this meeting, due to another
engagement clear across the country in New York at the same time. I think that the joint meeting is excellent, since it will
create more of the joint planning that is necessary in the support of our water resources in this nation.
Both your organization and Water Resources Congress has stood for a conservative growth and wise spending of tax monies over these many years, and with your organization's work and the good work of WRC, I am sure it will be possible to develope our water resources in spite of those extremists who would have our tax money spent unnecessarily under the umbrella of the environment.
Again, I apologize for not being able to be present. I am sure you will understand and I will look forward to seeing you in the very near future.
Very truly yours,
