Letter Concerning Lake Powell
No full textLetter: To Mr. Vaud E. Larson, from Art Greene, June? 1966? (thermofax), page 2And I think the finest tribute I heard paid Rainbow Bridge was by an old cowboy who was a scout for the movie people locating beauty spots for them.

Yes, I am glad I lost that battle. (Over construction of Glen Canyon Dam.)
But I feel I won the war.
Kindest regards,

It further sets certain guidelines to be observed. The language of Section 601 was developed and adopted only after long and exhaustive negotiations between Upper and Lower Basin interests.

Commissioner Dominy has a more detailed statement both in respect to Title V and to Section 601. His statement will complete the formal presentation of the Administration's views on these new additions to H. R. 4671 and companion bills.
