Veteran's Home Location
Avers Bureau Head Is
Due in Oregon Thursday
SALT LAKE CITY, July 29. (AP)
Major-Genonu Frank T. Hlncs, head
of the United States veterans' ad
ministration and member of a sub
committee on selection of hospital
and soldiers homo sites, stopped hero
tcday en route to Oregon, where ho
will Inspect aites for a soldiers' homo.
The terms of the allocation for tho
Oregon home, he said, confine it to
tne territory south of the line or
Portland and west of the Cascades.
He Indicated he would visit several
cities In that region and look over
sites offered. Since no funds havo
been appropriated for purchase of
sites, he &ald. It Is assumed the one
chosen will be turned over to the
government without cost.
While Roseburg and Eugene, ore..
are the most active -candidates for
the soldiers' home. General Hinc.i
said , tho selection is not restricted
to those cities.
General Hincs said he would pro
ceed to Portland for an Inspection of
tne voternns' hospital there and alter
hla trip to other Oregon cities, would
go to Sin Franolsco to look over sites
for a veterans' hospital Micro.
General HI ties Is due In Portland
tomorrow morning, It was reported
yesterday.
His statement at Salt Lake that tho
new soldiers' home would be located
In Oregon, apparently puts Vancouver,
Wash., out of the running, but his
further statement that Roseburg and
Eugene were not the only Oregon
ettlea up for consideration Is con
trary to the belief of Eugene and
Roseburg resident, who based their
opinion ipon a resolution adopted
by the sub-committee during Its con
siderations In Washington whereby
Eugene and Roseburg were announced
as the only cities to be considered.
General Hlnes' statement that tho
homo would be located south of Port
land and west of the Cascades la be
lieved to sottlo tho question of th
home' being taken to another state.
This'further statement that Eugene
and Roseburg will not be exclusively
considered, renders It probable. In the
opinion of local residents familiar
with the situation, that he will look;
over the sites offered by Med ford and
Ashland before hie final decision is
rendered.
