Supreme Court
 Sets Lopsided Rule In Tidelands Case

WASHINGTON. R - In a case potentially involving billions of dollars, the Supreme Court ruled yesterday that rights of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama to oil in submerged Gulf of Mexico lands extend just three miles off their coast. It held that rights of Texas and Flordia extend to three leagues, or about 10.45 miles.
 The justices were SO split in their opinions as to the individual states that the precise division in the historic decision was not sharply defined.
 The ruling was by seven-man court. Chief Justice Warren and Justice Clark disqualified them selves. Warren is a former Gov ernor of California, another state where there is submerged lands issue. Clark headed the Justice Department as Attorney General during earlier phases of litigation over the ownership of Gulf lands.
 By its limiting of Louisiana's ownership of submerged lands to three geographical miles, the government is in position to pick up immediately in the neigh borhood of 300 million dollars, and untold millions if the future.
 The Interior Department has been leasing disputed lands off the Louisiana coast and putting the money in escrow pending today's decision.
 The money now tied up is in the neighborhood of 300 million. It came almost entirely from leases off Louisiana. Only leases off Louisiana so far have brought in substantial revenue.
 If there is substantial mineral leasing off Texas and Florida, those states stand to pocket the money.
 Justice Harlan, however, dis sented as to the Florida decision.
 Justice Black wrote the courts main decision in the Florida de- cision. He dissented in the cases of Louisiana, Mississippi and Ala bama. He favored giving them the same treatment as Texas and Florida.
 Justice Douglas dissented as to Texas. He said, however, that Florida's claim was fully estab- lished by the standard that he would fix for Texas to meet in de- ciding the tidelands issue.
 ''If we are to relax the standard of proof for the benefit of Texas" Douglas said, i've should do so for all these claimants. In that posture, the claims of each of the other Gulf states are as clear as those of Texas"

court negligence suite against
Curtiss- Wright Corp. in con-
nection with the crash March

Nine persons were killed and

The complaint said the plane
was manufactured and sold to

a result Of the crash. the suit
contends. Braniff is personally
liable to others for the amount
Of money sought in the suit.
Braniff charges that before
the crash, the No. 3 engine of
the plane caught fire and fire
resulted because of the negli-
gence of Curtiss- Wright in fail
ing to use reasonable care in
design and selection Of ma
terial."
The suit said that prior to
the crash, Curtiss-Wright had
become aware of certain defects
in the manufacture, design and
constructio nof engines of the
type of No. 8, but negligently
failed to notify Braniff of such
defects and as a result, those

Changes Pushed
Harry deButts started i'm

road. and in doing so. helped
to transform the South.
In 1858. for example, the
company retired the last of its
steam locomotives to become
the first all-diesel major rail
line in the Nation. Its 870
diesel units represent an invest
ment of about $12S million.
Mr.. deButts also inherited a
vigorous program Of industrial
development which the South
ern Railway Co. was organized
by that name in 1894.
I'VE have our own biologists,

explained, land maintain con-

fort. In the last 10 years, 1926

OF Universal
Marion Stock

The Universal Marion Corp,
legal successor to the old Capt.
ital Transit Co. here, is consid-
ering offering additional shares
of common stock and has plans
to develop a tract of land near
Tampa, Fla.
This became known today,
after President James Mullaney
declared in the annual report
to stockholders that prospects
for the firm for 1860 will be
enhanced by the recently-com-
pleted licensing agreement
with Babcock and Wilcox, Ltd.
of England. He said the Scot
land works Of that company
will produce excavators and
cranes, and machines are ex-
pected to be on the market
this year.
The annual meeting of
stockholders at Jacksonville.
Fla, April IL will vote on an
amendment to change the
common stock from shares
with par value to shares of no
par value. If adopted. the cor
poration intends to offer addi-
tional shares Of common stock
to its common stockholders by
issuing transferable subscrip-
ton warrants giving the right
to purchase one additional
share of common for each four
shares held at a price below
the then-existing market price.
A registration statement will
be filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
Mr.. Mullaney said proceeds
from the sale of additional
shares will be added to the gen.
eral funds and will be avail
able, with other monies. to
use in developing the cor
poration's tract of land near
Tampa. Acquisition of other
properties will also be studied.
The company is now survey
ing, engineering, land plan
ming and plotting the $4,000
acres called Tampa Hills.
Stockholders have been invited
to select a lot or tract or in
vestment parcel. prior to any
announcement to the public
concerning the property's
