GOP Platform Realization Would Net California $56,421,030 SACRAMENTO (CNS) — If money were the only consideration for the election of a president, the state of California would have a definite interest in going Republican next November. The interest would amount to $56,421,030, an amount which would be returned to the California state treasury immediately if the Republican platform is carried out. This huge amount has piled up from the oil royalties accumulating since July 23, 1947, when the Democratic administration laid claim to the tidelands for the federal government and began impounding earnings pending final settlement of the controversy by the United States Supreme court. President Truman twice has vetoed bills to turn the tidelands back to the states, and Congress adjourned without taking a vote to over-ride the latest veto. Meanwhile, a plank in the Republican platform pledges return of the tidelands to the states involved. Largest controversy emanates from California, Texas and Louisiana. STATE CONTROLLER Thomas H. Kuchel said that oil royalties for the 1950-51 fiscal year totaled $9,790,854. For the 1951-52 fiscal year, they grew to $10,280,397. Estimates place the royalties at $11,294,417 for the 1953 fiscal year. California, however, never has sent all the lush revenue to its general fund, for the normal operation of state government, despite the fact that the income has grown to the point where it could be a considerable factor in the estimates of income for governmental purposes. Rather, state law provides that only 30 per cent shall go to the general fund, while the remaining 70 per cent goes to provide permanent recreation facilities for the people of the state, 23% to beaches, and 46% for state parks. Eventually, the saturation point in acquisition of beaches and parks could be reached, although the time appears now to be a long way off, with the state division of beaches and parks attempting to acquire all the property possible while the money holds out. State funds, of course, must be matched by local government or private funds before such property can be purchased. THERE ARE SOME thoughts in the minds of certain legislators, however, that the state has spent, in the event it should get back the oil revenue, all of the money it should on state parks and beaches. They feel that the funds should be diverted elsewhere. STATE CONTROLLER Thomas THERE ARE SOME thoughts in the minds of certain legislators, however, that the state has spent, in the event it should get back the oil revenue, all of the money it should on state parks and beaches. They feel that the funds should be diverted elsewhere. With this thought in mind, sportsmen of the state, who are never loath to seek new sources of revenue, have their eyes on the prospective revenue. They claim the demand for fish and game funds is mounting daily as officials strive to maintain supplies and rehabilitate depleted resources in the face of a growing population and increased numbers of hunters and fishermen. They maintain that fish and game should not be neglected in the expenditure of money for recreation, and point to the fact that without more money, the state's sportsmen eventually will have to pay a higher license fee. For the boost from $2 to $3 a few years ago won't do, the job, and a new increase, possibly to $5, is in the offing. Already, under the direction of Seth Gordon, Pennsylvania conservationist who was named director of California's new fish and game department, the department is operating at a deficit.

Truman Approves Act Boosting Aid In Mortgages WASHINGTON. (AP) — President Truman has signed an act opening the way for the government to boost its operations in financing home mortgages. The new law puts up $1,395,000,000 for the purchase of federally guaranteed home mortgages. It also provides additional mortgage insurance under the federal housing administration (FHA) and veterans' housing programs. The program includes an additional 900 million dollars of purchasing power for the federal national mortgage association, a government owned corporation which buys mortgages from lending institutions and thus establishes a secondary mortgage market for private home builders. The act also gives the FHA an additional 400 million dollars of home insurance authorization, an additional 50 million dollars for housing in critical defense areas, 40 million for community facilities and service and five millions for housing loans in Alaska. Detectives Set Trap for 19 Year Old Extortionist PASADENA (UP) — Pasadena detectives who set a trap for an attempted extortionist reported today they captured a 19-year-old San Marino youth. Det. E. C. Fleck identified him as Jay Allen Gulick. He was arrested yesterday as he apprehensively walked near the spot where an envelope of dummy money had been left. Fleck said Mrs. George H. Betts who lives at a Huntington hotel bungalow received a letter Sunday demanding that she leave $500 under a bush on the hotel grounds. She notified authorities and the trap was set. Although he didn't pick up the envelope, the detectives were suspicious of Gulick's actions and arrested him. Fleck said Gulick admitted the plot. He was booked on suspicion of robbery while investigation continued. AP WIRE PHOTO POWDER PUFF DERBY QUEENS — Martha Baechle (left) 31, co-pilot, and Shirley A.
