He and the Justice Depart- ment have been in a race 1o see whether h could get the Tide- lands Oil Bill passed by Congress before the Justice Department could get the question before the Supreme Court. It now looks as if Kenny has won. Here is how he did it: Last winter, when both California and the Justice Department were to file briefs before the Supreme Court, Kenny petitioned the Court for two months delay. This was granted. When the two months expired, Kenny filed one of the longest briefs in history. It was three vol- umes thick and 822 pages long. It §s customary to make Supreme , Season s 822-page brief, and be paraded . Maintain rcund the Supreme Court build- Slasbing ing with the brief around his neck. m;‘l"(‘c;‘;loclty Indignant Mr. Kenny, however, ek T | replied that the Justice Depart- itury plant ment’s motion would deprive the TRk great state of California of its legal emanation rights. 2.
