NOV. 19, 1969 McClory Reports From Washington The population explosion, coupled with the development of new techniques for explor­ ing the ocean floor, have com­ bined to stimulate interest in the fantastic mineral wealth lying beneath the vast oceans. Offshore wells already supply a fifth of the world's oil and gas, and it is estimated that the oil industry will invest more than $25 billion in offshore ex­ ploration during the next 10 years. Deposits of sulfur, phos­ phorite and manganese also have been found and await de­ velopment. However, anticipa­ tion of these discoveries has brought an ominous extension of claims of national sovereignty. Until recently, national jurisdiction extended princi­ pally to submerged lands and their resources lying within the so-called 3-mile limit. Less complete jurisdiction also was recognized over offshore ter­ ritory beyond the 3-mile limit described as the continental shelf. This covered the offshore ocean floor up to a depth of 200 meters. Other nations now claim greater jurisdiction over their offshore lands. Some South American nations, for example, claim up to a distance of 200 miles from their shore line. United States statutes estab­ lishing the scope and limita­ tions of both federal and state jurisdiction over Submerged Lands and Outer Continental Shelf Lands have been enacted following recommendations of the House Judiciary Committee, upon which this Memben^jjjCon- gress serves. However, uncer­ tainties relating to State and Federal responsibility raise doubts as to the sufficiency of our national laws. In addition, absence of uniformity in na­ tional policies among the na- ticis of the world indicate a startling inadequacy of interna­ tional treaties governing the o- cean floor. Until recently, the principal interest in submerged lands re­ lated to the oil resources avail­ able within the continental shelf. Under the Submerged Lands Act, the, states retained jur­ isdiction of the submerged lands within the continental shelf ex­ tending to a distance of 3 miles of their respective shores. Under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act the Federal government assumed juris­ diction over all submerged lands beyond the 3-mile limit. With advanced techniques and equipment now capable of ex­ ploring and exploiting re­ sources on the ocean floor far below the 200 meter depth cov­ ered by the present definition of the continental shelf, it is expected that both new Feder­ al legislation and revised in­ ternational agreements will be needed. Private interest seek­ ing to develop resources be­ neath the sea are hesitant to go ahead without settlement of possible costly jurisdictional disputes. So far, the only agree­ ment which has been reached is the draft convention between the United States and the So­ viet Union prohibiting emplace­ ment of nuclear arms and oth­ er weapons of mass destruction on the ocean floor outside each nation's territorial limit. Hearings presently pro­ ceeding before Senate and House ^Committees are mostly explor­ atory in nature looking toward appropriate Federal manage­ ment of the submerged Lands and the sea itself along our nation's shore line. As to the legal rights of the Federal gov­ ernment and the respective states, as well as the legal authority of individuals in their dealings with the state and fed­ eral governments, the House Ju­ diciary Committee will be re­ quired to act. THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF MtHENRV House Resolution 93, adopted earlier this session, authorizes the House Judiciary Committee '•to conduct full and complete investigations and studies re­ lating to the operation and ad­ ministration of the Submerged Land Act and the Outer Con­ tinental Shelf Lands Act." The HoUse Judiciary com­ mittee has its work cut out for it. •«E XP LOSIVE" LEGISLATION In letters to the Illinois congressional delegation in Washington D.C., Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie urged adoption of national standards to curb wrongful sale and use of ex­ plosives similar to those en­ acted in Illinois. Ogilvie en­ closed a copy of House Bill 1805, which he has signed in­ to law. The bill amends pre­ sent requirements affecting the sale of explosives to require riaaufacturers, sellers and dealers to: number each stick or container of an explosive; record the delivery address, and the type and license num­ ber of the delivery vehicle; and keep a record of the driv­ er's Social Security number and his physical description. \ FERRY FOR PEARL Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie ap­ proved House Bill 586 which appropriates $150,000 to the Illinois Department of Public Works and Buildings to pro­ vide ferry service across the Illinois River at Pearl in Pike county. The department now op­ erates a ferry across the river at Brussels between Calhoun and Jersey counties and at Kampsville between Pike and Green counties. Congressman Presented With Service Award Congressman Robert Mc­ Clory of the 12th district of Illinois was honored last week in the nation's capital. Con­ gressman McClory was pre­ sented the Distinguished Ser­ vice Award by the board of trustees of the non-partisan Americans for Constitutional Action. ACA's Distinguished Service Award is bestowed every two years upon those legislators whose voting records in the Congress of the United States * support legislation which ser­ ve to strengthen and defend the spirit and principles of the Constitution of the United States. In presenting the award to Congressman McClory, Admir­ al Ben Moreell, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, stated: "On behalf of our trustees, I have the pleasure of congratu­ lating you and thanking you for your outstanding record in the Congress and devotion to those fundamental principles of good government which serve to pro­ mote individual rights and re­ sponsibilities; a sound dollar; a growing economy; and a de­ sire for victory over commu­ nist aggression." "The acceptance of this a- ward does not imply that you are in complete agreement with all of the principles espoused by AC A nor does it imply any com­ mitment for ybu to support them in the future," empha­ sized Admiral Moreell. "Our purpose is solely to honor you for your dedication to the Con­ stitution of the United States." Congressman McClory is now serving his fourth term as a member, of the United States Congress and serves on the im­ portant Judiciary committee. Present Three Soloists For Holiday Concert The sixth annual Christmas concert to be presented Dec. 7 by the Northern Illinois Chor­ al association in the St. Thomas the Apostle church in Crystal Lake will feature music from the Rennaissance to the Mod­ ern. Three of the soloists will be Mrs. James O'Reilly, con­ tralto; Mrs. Richard Thorsen, contralto; and Paul Rhodes, ten­ or. Mrs. O'Reilly will perform the solo work in "What Stran­ gers Are These", the old Scot­ tish carol arranged by Richard Purvis. Mrs. Richard Thorsen will be one of the soloists perform­ ing the number "Christmas Day", a choral fantasy on old carols by Gustav Hoist. Mr. Rhodes will also sing in the "Christmas Day" number by Gustav Hoist. CMP Announces Class I Handler Price For Milk Central Milk Producers Co­ operative has announced that the Class I (bottling) milk price to be charged handlers will be $6.03 per hundredweight at plants in a zone 85 miles from Chicago. The increase will become ef­ fective Nov. 24 according to R.J. Van Liere, CMPC pres­ ident. CMPC is an organization of eighteen Wisconsin and Illinois dairy farmer cooperatives which supplies most of the milk for Chicago, Milwaukee, Mad­ ison and northeastern Wiscon­ sin markets. The bottled milk price to be charged dealers in Chicago will be $6.10 per hundredweight, due to expense of additional transportation. These prices will be charged to handlers only for milk sold for fluid consumption. The newly announced Class I price represents an increase of 30 cents per hundredweight over the present price of $5.73 being paid in the 85-mile area (including Milwaukee Co., Wis. and Winnebago Co., 111.). The current Class I price has pre­ vailed since May of this year. THE SPIGOT S NOT ON Passage of the state's income tax "does not turn on the spigot," Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie stated in speaking before an Illinois conference on higher education recently. "We have already started making the first cut in budget re­ quests for the next fiscal year, and it is apparent that there will not, and should not, be suf­ ficient funds for all requests." The governor said all state bud­ get requests will be reviewed "from top to bottom." Ogilvie did not mention con­ troversy surrounding the build­ ing of a president's home at Southern Illinois University, but he told the meeting: "I want you all to know that George Clements and James Holderman have my confidence and my full support." (Clements is chairman of the Board of Higher Education and Holderman executive director.) "Strong budgetary manage­ ment is the board's function, and I am sure that Clements and Holderman intend to discharge their obligation fully." GOVERNOR FARM BUREAU SPEAKER Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie will speak Wednesday, Nov. 19, be­ fore members of the Illinois Farm Bureau who will meet at the Sherman House in Chicago. The annual convention of the organization for whom the governor is featured speaker, fol- lows a private dinner. Gov. Ogilvie will speak on topics of interest to the farm populace. A ^
