The two-term Democratic governor told a Washington press-conference that it would be "really a tragedy for if Kuchel de prives the state of his Senate seniority by returning home. Brown declared Califor nia's Republican senior senator as a man who has earned great respect in the fields of international affairs, water and commerce, and said this experience can be "best used in the Senate of the United States." Slap at Murphy In the same breath, Brown appeared to be taking a slap at Sen. George Murphy (R the former actor who was elected to the Senate last November and for whom Brown is known to have lit tle regard. The governor said "with all the problems California has to contend with," he would hate to see Kuchel leave the Senate and "have a freshman as a senior senator." However, Brown denied that he was being criti cal of Murphy. Nevertheless, it is the very argument that many Califor-nians, including some lead ing Republicans, are using in trying to persuade Kuchel not to run for governor.

They say that Kuchel, as as sistant Senate minority lead er with 12 years' Senate seni ority and important commit tee roles, can do more for Ca lifornia than Murphy could as senior senator. Kuchel Undecided; Kuchel, who insists he hasn't made his mind about running, has admitted this is one of the most com pelling arguments against his leaving the Senate. While Brown is known to feel Kuchel would be his most dangerous opponent, he sidestepped a question whether he would prefer running against Kuchel or actor Ronald Reagan, who may seek the GOP nomina tion. Brown disclosed that he had conferred with Kuche Tuesday afternoon but said he hadn't told him it would be a "tragedy" if Kuchel left the Senate. "I hoped he would read It Please Turn to Pg.

The 1967 Legislature would have had to approve a mast er plan for the over-all project. If it wasn't completed within 10 years, the tide and submerged lands would have reverted to the state.
