Acting upon recommendation
made by Chairman Evan t. Hughes
the Imperial Irrigation District
board Tuesday morning decided to
hold all sale bids and leases for
land for two weeks pending a sur
vey of possible retention of mineral
rights
The board had before it several
bids on tax-deeded lands as well
as oil leases submitted by the Loren
Hillman company representing the
Superior Oil Company of California
and the Amerada company. The
boards action cleared the table
of any sales or lease actions for
the next two weeks.
WILL CONFER
HeWes said that the board would
confer with the county supervisors
at their meeting Monday In Of
fering the recommendation he said
he had discussed the mineral rights
possibilities with Charles Halliday
district attorney, who thought that
since the district had a contract
with the county for the handling of
sales and rentals of tax-Geeded
property, that the two groups should
meet and set a policy or study the
possibility of retaining mineral
rights
Until the situation can be sur
veyed, Chairman Hewes asked the
beard to hold up all bids and leases
for two weeks pending the result
OF The Joint groups study.
The directors named M. J. Dowd,
consulting engineer for the district,
as the districts representative on
the county postwar planning COM
| mittee.
WANTS BOMBING AREA
The U. S. navy department pre-
Sented an agreement asking the
districts permis sion to use Salton
Sea as a practice area for bomb
ing targets. The matter was re-
ferred to the legal department.
Following the meeting T. E. Fol-
som, Hillman company representa-
tive, requested Jerry Dermody,
| beard secretary, to withdraw the
company oil lease submitted sew
eral weeks ago and return it to
the comany's offices. Folsom said
that he planned to leave the val
ley this week as he thought the
