Governor Refuses
To Testify Before
Oil Inquiry Board

SACRAMENTO, Feb. l3. up
Gov. Culbert l.. Olson, in a letter
to the California congressional dele
cation. today declined to appear
before congressional committees
studying the Nye resolution direct
ing the U. S. attorney general to
institute action to recover tideland
gas and oil.
Replying to letter signed by the
entire California representation,
Governor Olson said: I do not
believe it necessary for the protec-
ton of the right of California to
the oil and gas contained in these
tidelands for me to leave my work
here and appear before either of
the congressional committees in
opposition to the Nye resolution.
1t is really question of law,
whether il is argued before a SEN
ate committee or before the courts. "
Olson said he would suggest to
state attorney general Earl Warren
that his office file a brief in sup
port of the states legal right chal-
lenged by the resolution. He also
expressed confidence in the Cali
fornia congressional representation
to protect the states interest.

Disarmed and put in the patrol
