Senate group opposes Texas plan on submerged lands
Washington reports indicate the Senate Interior Committee is unlikely to back Texas proposals for state interests in submerged lands beyond historic boundaries. Sen. Cordon and other senators favor tidelands restoration to California out to the three mile limit. Texas Sen. Price Daniel pushes for oil penalty shares beyond the boundary. The panel is not expected to endorse the proposal. Local officials see Brownell's hint of federal approval to exploit historic boundary resources as conflicting with administration stance and Eisenhower pledges. A quitclaim bill reaching to the three mile limit is seen as likely if Congress approves and the President signs it.

He cited a 674000 dollar annual bill and said the city jail lacks beds after dismantling its facility. The Hall of Justice holds 3200 inmates in a space for 1906, prompting calls for a new maximum security jail and a separate women’s facility with juvenile segregation.
