The Solicitor General's letter to Senator O'Mahoney addresses the inaccuracies and misleading statements made by the National Association of Attorneys General regarding the seizure of the nation's oil resources in submerged lands of the sea. The letter points out that the proposed bill would enrich certain states at the expense of others and clarifies that the submerged lands of inland waters are not involved in the controversy. The letter refutes the claims made by the Attorneys General and provides counterarguments to their contentions.
