ONE of the achlpvemQnts of the
79th Congress (which has just
adjourned) was a reorganization
act that' simplifies procedures
considerably. (For one thing, il
reduces sharply the number of
standing committees In both the
Houso and the Senate.)
It also UPS the salaries of
members of Congress by $5,000
$2500 actual Increase In salary
and an additional $2500 In the
way of a non-taxable expense ac
count, bringing the total pay to
$15,000 a year.
The President has signed the
bill, and It Is now a law.
1 S to the Increased salary, the
U JOB is worth it If the MAN
is worth It. That Is to say, a com
petent representative or senator
will fully earn his $15,000 a year.

T1DELANDS
By CHARLES V. STANTON
We have more than a passing personal interest in the
Tidelands issue now before the Supreme Court. Congress
attempted to determine the question by legislation, but ran
into a presidential veto. Strength to override the veto was
lacking.
The controversy involves the ocean bed from the coastline
to the three-mile limit. While Harold Ickes was serving as
Secretary of the Interior, he proposed that title to this three
mile strip along the nation's coastline be vested in the fed
eral government. Objection was raised from many quarters
but principally from the State of California, for offshore
lands along the coast of that state are productive of oil in
some areas, and, therefore, are of great importance to the
state, which seeks to prove ownership. California brought
suit in the federal court to support its claim of stale rights.
Congress, in the meantime, passed a bill renouncing federal
claims and giving the states clear title. President Truman
vetoed the bill on the grounds that the Supreme Court and
not the Congress should decide the matter of title. If the
court should decide ownership to be vested in the federal
government, then the Congress should not quit claim the
lands, Truman held. If, on the

The right of a state to regulate offshore fisheries has
never been clearly defined. Some states, we are informed,
do maintain offshore fishing regulations, but legal determi

The forthcoming decision in the Tidelands case should
govern. If title is vested in the federal government, then
federal control of offshore fisheries must be sought through
Congress. On the other hand, if it is ruled that title remains
with the stutes, then state legislatures will be able to impose
needed regulations.

can see hundreds of small fishing craft working just out

mouths of our streams. They are taking hundreds of thou
sands of pounds of salmon. They probably kill or maim many
times tne number of tish they catch. They destroy thousands
