PATRICIA MILLER, scribe CONGRESS TO OVERRIH&. vScT OF TIDELANDS BIU, •The Illinois State Chamber (St Commerce recently urged Congress to override the president's veto of the Tidelands Bill.,, This bill confirms title of the states to all submerged lands beneath navigable waters, and re-affirms state ownership of coastal lands within their seaward boundaries. "Illinois' stake in the Tidelands Controversy" is the title of a brochure being distributed by the State Chamber which sums up« the basic issues involved and the need for remedial legislation. According to Gordon M. Jones of Evanston, president of the State Chamber, "Passage of the 'Tidelands Bill' would mean clearing up once and for all the question of ownership of lands beneath navigable waters in Illinois. At the present time, Illinois' title to these lands is clouded by the Supreme Court doctrine of 'paramount rights' of the federal government in decisions handed down in the so-called 'Tidelands' cases." The Illinois state Chamber gave two reasons of "fundamental importance" why legislation is vital to Illinois and to all states: 1. The federal government's assertion of paramount rights, unless checked, means authority to confiscate state property without the payment of just compensation. 2. The basis for the Supreme Court decision on lands beneath the marginal seas could be extended to inland navigable waters. Illinois' stake in the controversy is due' to the fact that Illinois has lands beneath navigable waters producing valuable resources and revenues. Illinois has inland waters of 289,920 acres and 976,640 acres under Lake Michigan within its state boundaries. Fisherman's Church Service Rev. A. R. MacDougall, Birmingham, Me., an ardent fisherman, draws a capacity congregation to his annual anglers' service. CALL Need a cab?

Ser* vice is city-wide--rates ara low--and you have no packing problem. McHSNRY Sand, gravel, coal and clay are presently obtained . from those submerged lands. The state Chamber believes that Illinois can be trusted to control these resources at the State level for the public good. The House of Representatives on May 15, by a vote of 248 to 89, and the Senate by voice vote the following day, approved legislation which would give the states clear title to lands beneath navigable waters within State boundaries. They also reaffirmed state ownership of coastal lands within their seaward boundaries as fixed by the State Constitution or enabling acts of the individual states at the time they became members of the Union. President Jones dfcclkred that "The Illinois State Chamber of Commerce sees no danger either to our defense effort or to the conservation of our national resources by reason of state ownership of these lands. It does ;ne a very real danger in the otipreme Court doctrine of Federal rights that could someday be applied to inland properties and resources, and is not reassured by statements of Federal officials that this will never be done." Members of the state Chamber were asked to wire immediately to their senators and congressmen urging them to vote to override the president's anticipated veto of this "Tidelands Bill."1 ; Rusty Clothes Lines Metal clothes lines that have oorroded can be brought back into shape by sandpapering them and then applying a coat of wax.
