WASHINGTON, March 31.—In
a speech in the Senate last week
favoring state ownership of tide-
lands, Senator Tom Connally
yaid that Texas "simply seeks
restitution of what justly be-
longs to us, confirmed repeatedly
for a period of 100 years by the
Federal Government".
Connally told the Senate that
Congress is not bound by the
decision of the Supreme Court
in favor of the Federal Govern-
ment.
He ripped into the Court's de-
cision itself as "an unpardonable
error, a judicial outrage".
Texas has superior rights to
its tidelands, Connally said, "be-
cause Texas was an independent
republic for nine years before
it was admitted to the Union.
Every foot of territory off the
shores of Texas which belonged
to anyone belonged to the Re-
public of Texas".
Senator Connally recalled that,
before the Supreme Court agreed
to hear the case against the
states, federal agencies h a d
asked Congress on five occasions
for permission to sue the states,
but it was never granted. Three
times, beginning in 1939, Sena-
tor Connally himself appeared
before Congressional commit-
ters considering the matter and
argued in favor of state owner-
ship.
In 1946, Congress passed a
bill recognizing the title of the
states, and
decision of
to be the
vetoed by
said
the
law,
the
Connally, "that
Congress ought
even if it was
President".

Discussing the theory of para-
mount rights, on which the Su-
preme Court based its decision,
Senator Connally said it did
not apply to either national de-
fense, navigation, or foreign re-
lations.
"If the doctrine of paramount
rights is true," he said, "the
title to every foot of property
in the. United States can be sub-
ordinated to the so-called para
mount right of the United States
Government ... Of course, the
Government can take property
for national defense; but the
Constitution provides in the
fifth amendment: 'Nor shall
private property be taken for
public use, without just compen-
sation'."
The right of navigation does
not cover ownership, Connally
continued, nor does the right to
conduct foreign relations.

The Massey-Harris 44 L.P. is custom designed and
factory built for efficient operation on L.P. fuel. And be-
cause it is built as a complete L.P. unit, the 44 LP gives
you the same high-power rating as the 44 Gas—the
son* belt and drawbar efficiency.
In addition you get the economy of operating on low-
coat fuel, and the low engine upkeep that results from
the use of clean-buming, high-octane L.P.

Midnight snacks can be a lot
of fun with a combination sand-
wich grill and waffle iron.
While sitting around the kitchen
table talking and laughing about
the activities of the evening,
sandwiches, toast or waffles
bake right in front of you.
The next time you invite an-
other couple home for a bite
after the movies, prepare one
of these simple but tasty sug-
gestions.
If you have a can of tuna
fish on the shelf and feel like
eating sandwiches, you will
probably choose
Grilled Tuna Toasties
One 7-oz. can of tuna fish,
flaked
1-3 cup finely chopped celery
1-4 cup mayonnaise
One tablespoon lemon juice
1-8 teaspoon salt
Dash of pepper
One egg, slightly beaten
