Supervisors Vote Tidewater Pact In Long Beach Dispute
The Board of Supervisors approved a contract with Tidewater Exploration Co to represent the county Float Control District in petroleum explorations on 40 acres of disputed tidelands at the Los Angeles River mouth. Raymond V. Darby opposed, fearing alignment with private interests against Long Beach claims. The pact restricts Tidewater from actions without county approval and may lead to legal testing of oil dispute legality in the Supreme Court. Long Beach officials voiced opposition, led by City Attorney Irvin M. Smith.
