THURSDAY, MAY 1953 licouso..Poset,,.Tideiloncls - Oil Bill Vote. Climaxes 16 Year Battle In Legislature WASHINGTON, May 13 (W). 7 --- The House put the finishing touch today to a bill establishing state ownership 'of th e submerged coastal lands, then sent it to the White -House for an ' expected presidential signature. The measure, which is in -line with the President's campaign pledge, was passed by a vote of 278 to 116.

The second bill now goes to the Senate for action. It is almost word for word the same as a sec tion contained in the States' own ership bill originally passed by the Hduse six weeks ago, a sec tion which the Senate deleted from the measure.
