Participating in the discussion
were Bob Eckhardt, local attorney,
and Stan Siegel, Rice graduate his-
tory student, speaking for federal
ownership of the tidelands with
Henry Holland, local attorney, and
Brad Thompson, Rice sophomore
and an experienced .debater, for
state ownership.
"Tidelands are defined as the
area beginning at low tide and end-
ing with the continental shelf," ex-
he presented a brief historical back-
ground of the Texas Tidelands.
In his argument for state owner-
ship Mr. Holland concentrated on
the guarantees made the Republic
of Texas at the time of its annexa-

disputes concerning the tidelands of
not only Texas, but of other states
as well, blasting the US Supreme
court for the "falsity and intellectu-
al dishonesty" of the court's deci-
sion against Texas ownership' of the
tidelands.
Siegel in his defense of federal
ownership of the tidelands dis-
cussed the -supremacy of national
rights over Texas' rights of private
ownership in the light of legal and
moral aspects.
"The United States has never en-
tered a #ield of endeavor without
plained the Moderator Hudspeth as'Staying, the tidelands will not be an
exception," pointed out Thompson.
He said that both private enter-
prise and state governments, favor
state ownership.
Mr. Eckhardt elaborated on the
.present and future values of the
sea floor for oil and national de-
fense and the need to preserve them
