Erb Memorial Unton I 1 Mostea by the University of Oregon Parent s Association Senators ask secretary to explain his statement PORTLAND (AP) — Oregon’s senators called Wednesday for the undersecretary of the Navy to explain his statement that political considerations are keeping the state from getting more Navy work. Undersecretary James Goodrich told the Western Ship building Association on Friday, “Oregon’s problem is its representation. I don’t think they are showing the interest they should show in the military and in rebuilding the military.” He said the Swan Island ship repair yard, run by the Port of Portland, could not expect any more Navy contracts, referring twice to the Oregon delegation’s voting record. Navy contracts generally are supposed to be awarded competitively, based on costs and quality. “The senator is outraged,” Etta Fielek, spokeswoman for Sen. Bob Packwood, said in a telephone interview. The Oregon Republican “was incensed by the incredible ig norance of the statement,” she said, adding that Packwood thought the Navy was using a "repulsive" way of making deci sions if Goodrich’s statement is true. She said Packwood’s voting record shows strong support of the military. “We are seeking clarification and an apology, not necessarily in that order,” she said. Her comments were echoed by Gerry Frank, chief of staff for Sen. Mark Hatfield, R-Ore. “The senator wants a full explanation of what was meant by those remarks," Frank said in a telephone interview. He said the senator has asked to meet with Goodrich and Navy Secretary John Lehman next week. Hatfield’s office has gotten numerous calls from concerned Oregon businessmen since Goodrich’s speech, he said. Rep. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said, “We’ve been told again and again that this is an objective process in terms of ship repair contracts, that they were based upon cost-effectiveness and the quality of work done. Now this indicates there are political considerations.” “Where have Oregon’s representatives been in the last two years?” Goodrich asked the shipbuilding association. “How have they voted?” “We were barely able to control our enthusiasm about his comments,” Darrel Buttice, Port of Portland spokesman, said wryly. "His comments reduce the whole thing to a political foot ball,” Buttice said, noting that work on the USS Wilson was done a month early and “it was a superior job." In addition, Buttice said, "It lacks a certain amount of taste to come into a community, ignore all the positive things about the quality of work, and then insult the delegation." Army outlines gas move HERMISTON (AP) — The Ar my will outline its plans next Wednesday for transfering chemical nerve agents from 90 leaking weapons stored at the Umatilla Army Depot.

Some 2,550 pounds of nerve agents GB and VX will be tmoved from the weapons r? and placed in secure storage containers, the Army says, us ing a mobile, self-contained drill and transfer system.
