WILL BE COSTLY
TO MOVE VESSEL
General White Receives ' Of
ficial Figures; From Ad-1
miral Hoogewerff;
Unless the government' will pay
the bill of putting, the famous bat
tleship Oregon into condition ', for
exhibition, it became apparent yes
terday, that the famous old vessel
is beyond the reach of the, state
under appropriations mafie by the
last, legislature. ' i ' ",
... Official figures , asked ' for ' re
cently by Adjutant General George
A. White were received yesterday
by that official from Rear Admi
ral John A. Hoogerwerff, comman
dant of the Bremerton navy yard
where the Oregon is now located;
State Money for Maintenance ) - v
i These figures; show that It will
cost 147,350 to put the ship-into
condition for the. trip, to Portland
harbor under her? own steam, or
It ''will cost a minimum "of f 14.6 00
to put the ship into condition, for
exhibition . purposes, not Including
the ' cost? of towing her Into the
Willamette with the use of navy
tugs. The appropriation made by
the state and which becomes avafl
able in May for the current year
la $15,000. ' That amount, accordf
ing to General White, is for 'main
tenance In Portland harbor and
in -his opinion cannot properly, be
paid out for ' making .repairs ' at
Bremerton. f
"Besides," he' adjutant general
said, "It was distinctly understood
that every .effort should be made
to-have the vessel1 at least partly
self-supporting, and I know It to
be the policy of Governor Pierce
to make every effort in that di
rection. It Is plain that we can
not spend $14,600 of this year's
appropriation for overhauling the
boat aC Bremerton, and it Is tip
to the navy department to set
aside the funds for turning the
ship over, to, the state in at. least
presentable, condition. In its pres
ent condition the Oregon would be
an elephant. on the state's hands."
. Scaling and PaJtntln Needed
That .the navy department will
scale hnd paint the ship and pot
her In. shape for presentation to
the state was the opinion expressed
by General White, who, will com
municate at once with the navy
department, giving the details of
what Is needed. ; Admiral Hooge
werff wrote that he had sent his
estimates to the navy1 department
March: 15. -v. 4 ' ' . 4 :
; l know that the-navy depart

served and has been holding her
tor, Oregon,.: said General White.
"When in Washington in 1920 Ad
miral Koontz, then chief of staff,
told me he would recommend that
thfr " Oregon - be sent to Portland
harbor as a training ship for naval
reservists. That plan was favored
by the chiefs of operations, oavl
gation andi naval V reserves,: but
was recommended against later by
northwest naval reservist officials
In favor of a light-draft training
boat which, accordingly, was sent
to .Portland harbor in place o'f the
Oregon and. Is still there." . I
