Excerpt from New Reclamation Era, Vol. 24

It has become customary for the chairman of the executive committee to preside at the opening session and to speak of the functions of the conference and of the program. It is my privilege to discharge that duty this morning.

The Western Governors' Conference was organized at Salt Lake City in 1929, at a well attended and very important session. In 1930 it again met here immediately preceding the National Governors' Conference, which convened here on June 30. Utah was not trying to monopolize the conference, but the governors preferred to come here because they could attend both conferences on the same trip.

Last year our meeting was held at Portland, Oreg., on October 27, 28, and 29. In three strenuous days a great deal of hard work was done, and the proceedings were printed. A few copies are still on hand and may be had by those who are especially interested.

The conference accepted the invitation of Governor Rolph to hold this year's meeting at Los Angeles, Calif., at the time of the opening of the Olympic games. As the time approached we commenced to make preparations, but discovered that only three or four governors were planning to attend. The executive committee did not like to imitate the three tailors of Tooley Street, and therefore adjourned the meeting indefinitely. It was thought that the governors might have more time after election and that the conference might possibly be held in November or December.

In October there appeared a good reason for holding a meeting this year. Organizations interested in reclamation were becoming alarmed over eastern propaganda to abolish Federal reclamation and asked for a reclamation conference to be held at Salt Lake City. After some consultation it was the consensus of opinion that if the subject were handled by the Western Governors' Conference the conclusions and resolutions would carry more weight and prestige than if they came from a voluntary, nonofficial gathering.

The upshot of the deliberations was a decision to hold a reclamation meeting for a special purpose on December 5 and a Western Governors' Conference on December 6 and 7. Salt Lake City, on account of its central location, was the choice of the most of the States as the meeting place, and Governor Rolph very graciously released us from our promise to hold this year's meeting in California. As chairman of the executive committee I there fore sent out the call, which read as follows:

"On November 21, I wired you as follows:

"'Will you attend personally and appoint additional delegates to a meeting of Western Governors' Conference to be held in about two weeks to consider reclamation,' the short and long haul, and other subjects stop Would prefer that such conference be held in Salt Lake, Sacramento, or Denver Please wire me immediately.'

"The identical telegram was sent to the governors of all the other public land States which are members of the Western Governors' Conference. The replies have been submitted to the executive committee, and as chairman I have been directed to issue a cal for a Western Governors' Conference to be held at the State Capitol, in Salt Lake City on December 6 and 7, 1932.

"At the request of various organizations interested in reclamation I also hereby call a National Reclamation Conference, to be held at Salt Lake City on December 5. This meeting will convene in the State Capitol at 10 o'clock a. m. I cordially invite you to attend both of these conferences and to appoint as many additional delegates from your State as you please.

"The Western Governors' Conference is composed of the Governors of Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming, plus such additional persons as each governor may appoint to represent his State.

"The chief purpose of both of these conferences is to set up a campaign
