Arthur B. Langlie Saturday struck back at the federal government for its claim to the three-mile strip of submerged oil lands along the Washington coast. In a strongly worded letter to Secretary of the Interior Oscar Chapman, Langlie told him the federal government's effort to "grab Washington's tidelands" was in violation of the Washing ton state constitution. Reply to Chapman Langlie' letter replied to one he received from Chapman about a week ago. At that time the secretary of interior informed the Washington governor: "Under the doctrine of the cases against California, Lou isiana and Texas, the United States believes and asserts that the submerged area along the coast line of the state of Wash ington ... is subject to the full domination and power of the United States." Advises Against Permits Chapman advised the state to issue no more oil and gas per mits on its tidelands, which 'have produced favorable signs recent ly of commercial oil and gas quantities. Furthermore, Chap man told the state oil and gas permits already issued were to be considered null and void. "This is the latest and most drastic expression of government by edict," Langlie said.
