BINGHAM PROTESTS
 LOSS OF OLYMPIA
demonstrates for Himself and
 Spanish War Veterans
By GEORGE II. MANNING

ny 1E''ikbE Ii. MANNlNd 1 (Washington Correspondent N. E. Herald) Washington, D. C., Aug. 12 - Senator Hiram Bingham of Connect icut today forwarded to the seCre- tary Of the navy, a protest against the proposed scrapping of the Olym- pia, Admiral Dewey's historic flag ship, lodged by the United Spani&h- American War Veterans, of tEe dc rartm4nt of Connecticut.
 In forwarding the appeal of he veterans to the naval head Senator Bingham enclosed with it his own request that the protest be given favorable consideration. Similar pro- tests have been forwarded either di- rectly or through members of con- gross to the secretary by practically every Spanish war veteran chapter in the country.
 The protest from Connecticut came in the form of telegram from John J. Connors. of Rockville con- mander of the department of Con- necticut. It read in part as follows.
 "The United Spanish War Vetcr- ans of the department of ConneCti- cut emphatiCally protest against the scrapping of the Olympia, Dewey's flagship, by the navy"
 Meanwhile the navy department has announced that they will hold up the plan to scrap the vessel until congress has a chance to act on measure to he introduced by Rep resentative Cochran, of Missouri. which would provide for rcftting the old Warship and setting it up as a rational shrine.
 An attempt to accomplish this in the last administration was defeated by Secretary of tho Navy Wilbur, who, ct that time, decided that the ship was still servIceable enough to be held in readiness in case of an emergency.

Recently, how ever, a board of off cers recommended that It be sent to the junk heap, and then followed ine wave of protest :n an effort to save the ship that made history at Manila Bay. It is now docked at the Philadelphia navy yard.
 Repre- 2ntatiVe Cochran has al leady been promised the support of Representative Britten, of Illinois chairman of the house naval affairs committee, and several other mem- bers of the same committee.
 It is his plan to have the National Park and Planning commission designate a position along the cap- itals water front where it could be anchored and left oren for inspcc- ton by school children or others who cared to visit it.
