form Committee, caught the insert and scratched it out. Later in the full committee meeting, Delegate Richmond tried to reinsert it.
 He was opposed by Senator Don- nell of Missouri, who threatened to stay up all night rather than see the tidelands oil go back to the States. The argument got bitter.
 That's the New Deal theory of government" shouted Richmond What the hell are you trying to do-favor Truman over Congress?'
 Chairman Lodge supported Don nell, argued that federal control of the coastline was vital to na- tional defense. But Senator Bald win of Connecticut and Governor Herbert of Ohio, plus the Texas delegate jumped in on the side ot California. The final vote favor ed State control of tidelands oil.

BACKsTAGE MOVE

MacArthurS BOOmEOne Ol tHS most fantastic backstage moves at Philadelphia came when General Macarthur requested Senator Van denberg to deliver the nominating speech-for MacArthur.
 Believe it or not but the request was delivered to Vandenberg by an office girl from MacArthur's head quarters.
 It looks as if Macarthur has been taken in by his supporters propaganda. They circulated an outdated article, printed February l2. 1944. by Vandenherg, telling why he was for Macarthur. But a lot of people can change their minds between 1944 and 1948.
