of Barnegat today that the Govern
ment would give the old structure to
the State or any association of New
Jersey citizens Which would agree to
preserve it.
The Bureau of Lighthouses, Mr..
Drake held, Is justified In expending
public funds only to aid navigation.
The old Barnegat structure is losing
its usefulness, and for $4,000 an in
land steel tower beacon can be in
stalled which will do all the work.
To reconstruct the BarRegat Light
base woud cost at least $230,000, for
temporary work, and $417,601 for a
permanent and dependable rehabili-
tatien.y
There is precedent for turning an
old light over to citizens of the lo-
cality concerned, Mr.. Drake added
At Cape Henlopen, Del, the depart
ment was obliged to abandon an old
light tower recently for one Of the
new and inexpensive steel structures.
Citizens in the vicinity were given
the old tower, and are maintaining
it because of its historic associations.
