## Opinion text

CRNIELL, J.,
concurs in the opinion that this is not a suit against the state, but is of the opinion that the entire strip of land 120 feet wide above the canal was dedicated to public use for a state highway, and that the statutes purporting to authorize the board of control to lease the part not necessary for the canal or shell road are unconstitutional.
