SB 1340 resolves some of those concerns. However, I share\nthe Assembly Republican Caucus' concern that Senator Moscone has\nweakened the original Act to the detriment of the public's right to\nfull disclosure.\n\"For example, Section 3625(a) of the original bill states 'no\nofficial shall have economic interests which are in substantial\nconflict with the proper exercise of his official duties and powers.\nThis has been moved from the operative provisions of the Act to the\nintent language of SB 1340, an obvious weakening of the law. In\naddition, I believe the exemption of legislators and other full-time\nelected and appointed officials provided in SB 1340, and in the original\nAct, should be modified to insure that all outside sources of income be\ndisclosed.\n\"I am asking the legislature to clear up the ambiguities in the\nlaw by approving legislation that will insure that the original intent\nof the Conflict of Interests Act is preserved.\n\"Accordingly, we will introduce legislation that would clarify and\nstrengthen what I consider to be a vital protection of the public\ninterest.\"\n# # #\nWalthall\nOFFICE OF GOVERNOR RONALD REAGAN\nRELEASE: Immediate\nSacramento, California 95814\nClyde Walthall, Press Secretary\n916-445-4571\n3-4-74\n#150\nGovernor Ronald Reagan today announced the appointments of\nSan Francisco Democrats Judge Claude D.

Thus, the fair market value\nof California crude, as shown by the exempt price, is currently over\ntwice the ceiling price imposed by FEO.\n\"Applying this $5 per barrel differential to the daily production\nfrom which California receives payment, it amounts to approximately\n$650,000 per day or $230,000,000 per year.\n-1-\n#166\n\"Stated more bluntly: the FEO action revoking the state's\nexemption is costing the people of the State of California $650,000 a\nday -- $230,000,000 a year.\n\"Another vice of the FEO action is its retroactive effect --\nnot only does California lose its exemption, but it loses it back to\nlast October 25. This action alone wiped out over $55 million due the\nstate treasury, and has put the state in the position of being required\nto pay back some money --- claims so far of $1.3 million.\nCalifornia's Use of Tideland Oil Revenues\n\"Now the question has been asked, what would California do with\nall this money?\n\"First, the tidelands oil is a public asset, owned by the people\nof California. And this oil is a depleting asset. Once a barrel of\noil is out of the ground it is gone for good. The people of California\nare entitled to receive fair market value for their oil. The FEO ceiling\nprice order deprives the people of California of over half of that\nvalue, and at a time when California tidelands oil production has\nreached its peak. A federal rule which allows over half the value of\noil to be kept by purchasers cannot be considered in the public interest.\n\"Secondly, since the creation of the State Lands Commission in\n1938, the California Legislature has recognized that tidelands oil is\na capital asset and has directed that oil revenue be devoted to public\ncapital projects. Initially this was the acquisition of state park\nlands. In the late 1950s and the 1960s a large portion of this\nrevenue was devoted to California's progressive Central Valley Water\nProject. Twenty-five million dollars of this revenue is still used\nannually for this purpose. The balance currently is devoted to capital\noutlay for California's university and college systems. The City of\nLong Beach's share of tideland oil has, of course, been used to help\ncreate a modern and thriving port.\n\"There have been suggestions that this new money be devoted to\nenergy related uses, such as rapid transit facilities as urged by\nand the California Legislature.\nState Controller Houston I. Flournoy/ The state currently has this\nmatter under serious study. You may be assured that this revenue\nderived from a scarce and valuable public asset will be used only for\nlong-term and statewide public benefit.\n-2-\n#166\nRoll-backs and\ne Consumer\n\"It has been suggested that to restrict California's oil\nrevenue to ceiling prices would result in lower gasoline prices at the\npump.\nThis requires two assumptions, neither of which will hold up:\n\"First, that the California public-interest oil is a significant\nfactor in the gasoline market. It is not. The 135,000 daily barrels of\noil is virtually nothing against the nine million plus barrels\nper day of crude oil production in the United States, or the 17 million\nplus barrels of daily demand in this country, or the five million plus\nbarrels of price from imported crude oil and products. At least 40\npercent of all crude oil used in this country is not subject to price\nceilings. California's share is miniscule.\n\"The second assumption is that any savings resulting from an\nartificially restricted price impound on California's crude oil will\nbe passed on to the consumer at the pump. This is extremely doubtful.\n\"As the president said in his message on vetoing the Emergency\nEnergy Act, rollbacks on crude oil prices would result in 'minimal, if\nany, reduction in gasoline prices.' If this system created by the FEO\nworked perfectly, perhaps that would be the result. It is known the\nsystem is not working perfectly, and the FEO does not have the staff\nto make it perfect. As a recent newspaper article pointed out, FEO\nhas the use of 300 IRS agents to check on the 225,000 service stations\nin this country, and in checks on 20,000 of them, found 25 percent\nwere overcharging. There is no way of checking on whether this roll-\nback on state crude oil prices would be passed through to the consumer\nat the pump. If you could guarantee that result, the state might\nreconsider its position. The state guarantees that the $230,000,000,\nif received by the State of California, would be expended for the\npublic, the same people who are supposed to benefit by reduced prices.\nFederal - State Relationships\n\"Last September Governor Reagan created in California an Energy\nPlanning Council to cope with the energy crisis. This is the agency\nthat handles state functions under the Emergency Petroleum Allocation\nAct of 1973 enacted by Congress. The Energy Planning Council and its\nstaff was directed to cooperate fully with its federal counterparts ---\nand they have. They have tried to work together so that we can all do\na job that must be done.\n-3-\n#166\n\"Despite this, California has seen the FEO divert its gasoline\nsupplies to other states, saddle the state with an excessive share of\nmilitary oil products demands, particularly when the military could\nproduce its demand from Elk Hills, and now this --- cutting off its\nrevenue. Actions such as this, which were taken without public notice\nand without public hearing, place an intolerable strain on our system\nof federalism.\n\"The State of California thinks an action of the federal\ngovernment, which will have such an adverse effect on state government\nand will override well established state policy, deserves far greater\nconsideration and public airing than was given in this case. Fair\ntreatment for the 20 million people of the State of California requires\nthat the FEO action of February 21, 1974 be immediately repealed and\nthe state and local government exemption be restored.\n\"Thank you again for this chance to express California's great\nconcern over the action taken by the Federal Energy Office.\"\n# # #\n-4-\nWalthall\nOFFICE OF GOVERNOR RONALD REAGAN\nRELEASE\nImmediate\nSacramento, Californi 95814\nClyde Walthall, Press Secretary\n916-445-4571\n3-13-74\n#167\nGovernor Ronald Reagan today ordered primary and special elections\nto fill vacancies in the 6th Congressional District and 24th State\nSenatorial District.\nPrimaries in both will be June 4, in conjunction with the\nstatewide primary.

The extra day will be\nparticularly helpful in those counties using the \"odd/even marketing\nplan\" by reducing the time some motorists must wait to purchase\ngasoline.\nThe firms which have notified the governor that they will open\ntheir company-owned and operated stations starting Sunday, and the\nnumber of stations, include: Standard, 235; Phillips, 200; Arco, 36;\nGulf, 66; Douglas, 62; Mobil, 51; Shell, 81; Time, 40; Save Mor, 75;\nand Union, 5.\nOfficials at the Exxon Oil Company informed the governor they were\nin the process of evaluating each of their company-owned stations and\nthat several would be open this Sunday. Texaco, which has no company\noperated stations in California, is encouraging its franchise dealers\nto open on Sundays.\nIn addition, the companies are working on schedules to have their\nindividual stations open on a staggered-hour basis so more will be open\nthroughout the day.\n\"I am extremely pleased at the oil companies' cooperation,\"\nGovernor Reagan said. \"Their response to our request that they open\ntheir stations on Sundays has been excellent.\n\"The 'Odd/Even Plan' is working and waiting lines at stations are\nbeing reduced in most cases and even eliminated. If motorists will\ncontinue to reduce the miles they normally drive and use their\nautomobiles wisely, there will be enough gasoline for necessary trips,\"\nthe governor concluded.\n# # #\nWalthall\nOFFICE OF GOVERNOR RO LD REAGAN\nMEM\nTO THE PRESS\nSacramento, Californi_ 95814\nClyde Walthall, Press Secretary\n916-445-4571\n3-22-74\n#196\nGOVERNOR'S SCHEDULE\nMarch 25, 1974\nthrough\nApril 1, 1974\nMonday, March 25\na.m.\nTour facilities for developmentally disabled\nat St. John's Hospital, Santa Monica\nNoon\nLunch in Capitol Office\nOvernight - Sacramento\nTuesday, March 26\n10:30 a.m.\nNEWS CONFERENCE, Room 1190, State Capitol\nNoon\nLunch with Board of Directors, California\nBroadcasters Association, Ellis Restaurant.\nRemarks.\nOvernight - - Sacramento\nWednesday, March 27\n3:30 p.m.\nState Chamber of Commerce meeting, Grand\nBallroom, Woodlake Inn.
