Oregon Financing
Plans for Astoria
Bridge Hits Snag
Olympia, Wash. -IUPD- Ore
gon's plan for financing a
Columbia river toll bridge at
Astoria struck a snag Mon
day. Washington state officials
decided that this state lacks
both the funds and legislative
authority to make an annual
subsidy necessary under a
plan proposed by the Oregon
Highway Commission. ,
W. A. Bugge, Washington
highways director, was direct
ed to arrange a meeting May
27 in Portland to discuss the
feasibility of Washington's ob
ligation being taken up either
by a combination of counties
-or port districts. The session
would be among the Oregon
Highway Commission and the
Washington Highway Com
mission, the Washington Toll
. Bridge Authority and the
Washington Legislature's . In
terim Committee on High
ways. Subsidy Split Asked .
' Engineering studies showed
that the proposed lower Co
lumbia river bridge could not
be financed solely from tolls.
As a means of getting the
project off the ground, Ore
gon proposed that the two
states split the amount of an
nual subsidies needed to

Threat To Seaports
make the project feasible.
Bugge quoted Oregon high-
way commissioners that
Washington esvould be re
quired to pledge a subsidy of
$400,000 a year for the first
five years and $800,000 a year
for an indefinite subsequent
period.
He said toll revenues were
estimated at $500,000 a year
and that a bond issue of $24
million would be required. Of
the toll revenues, $250,000
would be required each year
in interest payments.
Alternative Suggested
Gov. Albert D. Rossellini,
chairman of the Toll Bridge
Authority, summed up the
sentiment of Washington offi
cials. '
"If the project will require
any guarantee from the state,
we just won't have the au
thority," he said. "I think we
should have the legal prob
lems ironed out in time for a
meeting with Oregon. It seems
to me that there isn't a lot
that we can do."
Rep. Julia Butler Hansen
(D - Cathlamet), chairman of
the Interim Highways Com
mittee, said one alternative
might be locating the bridge
12 miles upstream from As
toria in the vicinity of Tongue
Portland -4UPD- Undersecre-;
tary of Commerce John J.
Allen Jr. declared Monday
that the U. S. nuclear-powered
vessel N.S. Savannah will be
so safe no seaport need fear
radioactive contam i n a t i o n
from it.
He said the ship, scheduled
for launching this July, will
be the world's safest vessel.
"No seaport need be con
cerned about contamination
from this ship and be assured
that adequate precautions
have been taken should this
nuclear-powered ship be in
volved in a collision or a
sinking," Allen said in an ad
dress prepared for a maritime
day luncheon here.
His remarks were aimed at
spiking occasional articles
questioning safety of the Sa
vannah which will be ' the
world's first nuclear-powered
merchant ship. The articles
reflected apparent concern of
some seaports that the vessel
might accidentally poison the
cities with radioactivity.
Troubles Recalled
When the U. S. nuclear-
powered submarine Nautilus
visited Britain last year after
its historic trip under the Arc
tic, it docked at the sparsely
populated port of Portland
rather than London. It was
reported that the port was
chosen on advice of British
atomic energy authorities. .
Later Denmark refused to
let the Skate, another nuclear
powered sub, enter Copenhag
en because of fear of radioac
tive contamination.
Allen said the Savannah is
being built with the utmost
concern for protection against
radioactive contam i n a t i o n
either to passengers or ports
of visit.
"All radiological safety
measures necessary are being
taken," he said. "A cylindrical
steel containment (vessel pro
vides for protection against an
instantaneous rupture of the
reactor. The containment ves
sel will prevent radioactive
matter from the worst intern
al accident from reaching
other parts of the ship.
Other Projects Cited
"With regard to disposal of
radioactive waste, the method
to be used initially in the
Savannah' provides for the
complete retention of all
liquid and solid wastes until
the ship returns to a port
equipped with special facili
ties for safe removal and
shipment to a waste disposal
area."
Allen also touched on these
marine projects of the future:
-A submarine tanker. He
said experts claim such an
undersea tanker would not be
affected by waves, wind, se
vere storms and other actions
which reduce speed and effi
ciency of surface vessels.
-Hydrofoil merchant ships
which he said might skim
over the surface at speeds of
up to 100 miles an hour. Hy
drofoils use the principle of
the airplane wing to lift them
selves to the surface and thus
cut friction to a minimum.
-Automatic navigation de
vices which would make sea
navigation much safer. He
mentioned the inertial guid
ance principle or so - called
celestial navigation system as
possible ways to cut down on
sea collisions.
