Anderson (D-NM), an advocate of federal control of the controversial areas. But Taft said he was “not awful- ly optimistic” about setting up a date for a final vote on the House- approved bill which has been a storm center of Senate debate since April 1. Anderson’s amendment would knock out the bill’s provision to | establish state title to the offshore jlands within the states’ historic boundaries. It would substitue provisions to give the federal gov- ernment title to the lands, with 37% per cent: of revenues from offshore developments in the mar- ginal sea going to the coastal states. Backers of federal control, while conceding they are outnumbered 2-1 by senators favoring state con- trol, have held the floor in long speeches which they contend are designed, not as filibusters, but: to “educate the public.” Taft has threatened around-the- clock meetings as routine begin- ning tomorrow, unless there is | early agreement on a date for final voting. He <aid he might move to keep the Senate in. session next Sunday. Once the Anderson amendment | is disposed of, Taft said yesterday, he will call for votes on amend- ments by Senators Hill (D-Ala) and Malone (R-Nev). ‘Hill’s proposal would go a step beyond Anderson’s by providing that federal royalties from oil in the submerged lands ‘be set aside for aid to schools. Malone’s amendment would give the states title to mineral rights on most federal public lands within their boundaries. Opponents of state ownership had a strategy caucus scheduled today, but Hill said he doubted they would be willing to quit talk- ing right away. Taft said yester- day there was no press of legis- lation for the next two weeks but he felt the bill’s opponents were “rather inclined to be reasonable” about ending the debate, ‘Anderson said on an NBC tele- vision show last night he thinks the state ownership bill will be passed within the next two weeks, But he predicted the Supreme Court would upset such a law, holding Congress has no right to give away title to the lands.
