This Guy Has
Got Something
TOKYO, Jan. 8 OP) The Nippon
Times, In a feature story reporting
Emperor Hirohito's efiorts to "hu
manize" himself, said today among
other things:
"... It is not everybody who can
take a fan between his toes and fan
himself. Not only can Emperor
Hirohito perform this stunt, but he
is able to do so while swimming. He
can also swim in the rain holding
an open umbrella in one hand."
WASHINGTON. Jan. 8 Rep.
Angell tR-Ore.i said today there is
little chance that the hull of the
historic Battleship Oregon that
sped around the horn in 1898 to
take a major part in sinking the
Spanish fleet at Santiago, Cuba,
could ever be returned to his state.
At the outbreak of the second
World War the battleship, then a
patriotic shrine at Portland, where
Oregon maintained it as a museum,
was sold for scrap. She was com
pletely dismantled and the hull
towed to Guam, where the navy
planned to use it In blocking har
bors used by Japanese tf that be
came necessary.
Tlie hull was not used for 'that
purpose and is now rusting away
near the island.
"I have urged the navy ever
since it took the Oregon for scrap
to return it to Portland," Angell
said. "I have been told it would
cost more to recondition the old
battleship than to build a new one
and that the proposal to bring the
hull to Portland is not practicable.
"I am sorry that is the condition,
for the old ship was a patriotic
shrine visited by thousands of
school children every, year. The
state of Oregon spent more than
$100,000 in fixing the berthing place
for the battleship and it was the
headquarters for all patriotic
events."
The Oregon made her dash
around the horn when the Spanish
fleet was bottled up in Santiago
harbor. She made the 14.000-mile
trip at an average speed of 11.6
knots per hour and reached San
tiago on July 1.
The Spanish fleet attempted to
escape from the harbor two days
later and the Oregon went into
action. She forced the Spanish
Battleship Maria Theresa, one of
the most powerful in the world at
that time, onto the rocky shore and
forced the Almtrantr Oquludo to
run onto the beach. She then sent
shot from one of her ihlrtcen
pounders into the stem of the
Colon, bringing about its surrender.
The navy planned to use the old
ship for a target after the first
World War but protests caused U
to turn the vessel over to Oregon
on July 3, 1935, the anniversary of
the battle of Santiago.
