OMAN WARNS OF
FUTURE STEALS
Raps Bill Permitting Port
Leasing by State
By FIELDING LENNON

OLYMPIA. Feb. 25.---Sepntor J.
r. Oman Of Pierce county was pre-.
pared Friday morning to lead bit
ter fight against senate bin No. f39.
which takes from the port commits.
slons OF tho state tho right 70 lease
the harbor areas under their con.
troll and places this power in the
hands Of the state land commits
sIoner.
Senator Oman has almost fought
this bill slngie.handed since II first
appeared In the harbor areas com.
rnitiec.
In tho several open hearings that
have been held on the hnrbor area
problem. the Seattle and Tacoma
port officials. az well as representa-
tives from many OF the smaller
ports, have vigorously opposed this
measure.
Senator Oman In statement is.
sued Friday declared that. to him.
the significant part OF this bill was
the fact that the representatives OF
iho lAIBe steamship companies nave
been making every effort to get tho
bin pushed thru tho legislature.
Il believe this bill is a direct blow
81 the ports OF Tacoma and. Seattle, /"
he declared. THE bin not only takes
the leasing power from the port com.
missions but 1t sets no minimum
amount that the land commissioners
may Fix as the rental. This makes
II possible for the big steals OF
past years 10 be repeated. and am
afraid that this Is very possible"
The bin Is on tho calendar for
Friday and from the present indica-
tons has a good chance OF passing
the senate. Should this DO tho case,
the fight against the measure win
DO taken UP in tho house.
