Editorial—
Texans Ready To Fight
Texans
this issue since
year Congress passed the Submerged
Lands Act which recognized the coastal
states’ ownership of off-shore lands to
their "historic boundaries."
Texas won title to land three leagues
iW‘t miles) from shore in its inde-
pendence treaty with Mexico. Texans,
at least, were convinced, this was the
"historic boundary." Hence. «the state
began operating in the three-league ter-
’ ritory, leasing tracts to oil, gas and
sulphur companies to gain money for
the public school fund. ’
Now the. fat’s in the fire again. Last
year outgoing U. S. Attv. Gen. Herbert
Brownell filed suit in the U. S. Supreme
Court contesting Texas' claim to more
than three miles of tidelands. Other TV*
ciiies. he said, belong to the federal*
government
Of this claim, Texas officials have
this to say:
Atty. Gen. Will Wilson: “It was
Louisiana who knocked over the coffee
pot"
Things were going along fine after
passage of the 1953 law. explained Wil-
son. Until Louisianians (limited to three
miles of tidelands) decided that if Tex-
ans could have three leagues, so should

third the cost (with $5,000,000 limit) of

Newly-organized Development Board
met jointly with an older group, the
State Board of Water Engineers. Mem-
bers of the two boards promised to work
harmoniously with no trespassing on
each other's territory. Development
Board will pass on the legil and finan-
cial angles of a proposed project; Board
of Water Engineers will study from the
engineering viewpoint.
NEW "TRAFFIC DIRECTOR” — Brad
H. Smith, Rio Grande Valley newsman,
and past president of the Texas Press
Association, becomes Texas’ first state
traffic safety director on Feb. 1.
Gov. Daniel said that Smith will
spearhead one of the most intensive
traffic safety campaigns in the state’s
history. Daniel has made war on road
deaths one of the prime goals of his
administration.
Smith will work with the Texas Traf-
fic Safety Council created by the Legis-
lature last spring to coordinate the
safety activities of state agencies.
He &fts been doing volunteer safety
work for 18 years.

But neither ".Louisiana nor. other
coastal states have the same sort of
case a* Texas, he emphasized. At the
time Louisiana entered tbe Union, the
commonly accepted boundary of a
country was the distance a cannon could
‘fire from shore—or three miles.
Texas,, however, said Wilson, won
right to three leagues in 1836 War for
Independence, and U. S. officials recog-
nized this when the state entered the
Union.
Today the value of the contested
lands is estimated at $500,000,000. Rue-
fully, Wilson noted he's been allotted
only one hour before the court to argue
for it
Land Commr. Earl Rudder: If U. S.
court knocks down Texas’ claim to the
10-2-mile shoreline, then "Russia, Mex-
ico or anybody else can claim it.”
Rodder took note of reported dis-
cussion among Mexican attorney’s. Their
view: if Texas did not get title to the
territory from Mexico in 1836, then
Mexico still owns it
Urging that the title not be clouded.
Rudder pointed out that the land is
not only valuable for its minerals, but
vital to defense.
Gov. Price Daniel :r"This lawsuit is
another step in the process of chipping
away the authority of the states. It
seeks not only to repudiate, solemn
treaties by which Texas entered the
Union, but to destroy the legislative in-
tent of Congress.

same problem, speakers at a traffic
courts, conference in Austin said the
courts must command respect for the
law.
Traffic courts conducted by laymen
or part-time judges in ill-housed court-
rooms may be partly responsible for
the casual attitude many have toward
traffic offenses, said one speaker . . .
Such courts, it was charged, are the
"weakest link in the traffic enforce-
ment chain.”
SMALL FRY NOT WANTED — Texas
Board of Insurance has problem of de-
ciding whether to grant permission to
charge lower rates to casualty com-
panies0 which avoid the "little business.”
Five companies are requesting the
special rates. They said they plan to in-
sure only more expensive homes. Loss
ratios are higher in the $5,000 and un-
der bracket, they explained, and cost
of handling offsets commissions.
Board recognized this, but asked,
“Who is going to take care of the $5,000
home owner?”
CREDIT RULING CONTESTED - An

ment to hxndle it* public rela-
tion*, especially in the matter
of the murder of an American
dttoen. They are:

of the late President and only
Republican member of the fam-
ily. Retainer: *150,000. .

al Committee who was dropped
after an expose of his lobbying
activities in Kansas, is also do-

but not directly. He is working

lock. ' .......
Chief work at this battery of
high-placed Republicans at'the
moment is to soften the Stole
