FLAGSHIP OLYMPIA
BILL IS APPROVED
Measure to Bring Fighting
Vessel Here Soon to Be
Reported FavorabIy.

The House Naval Affairs Commit
tee unanimously agreed today to make
a favorable report on the Cochran bill
to bring Dewey's old flagship at Manila
Bay, the Olympia, to Washington to
be preserved as a naval relic and a
memorial to Spanish-American War
veterans.
Chairman Vinson expressed strong
conviction that the old frigates Con-
stitution and Constellation, the two
other most historic veteran war craft,
also should be brought to Washington
for preservation as naval relics at the
seat of Government. No legislation
for this, however, is pending before
the committee. Several members sup
ported Chairman Wilson's views.
Amended by Navy.
The Cochran bill was sent back to
the Navy Department for several
amendments. One would place the
Olympia entirely under jurisdiction OF
the Navy Department instead of the
National Capital Parks and Planning
Commission, as proposed in the bill.
The Navy Department was in
structed, however, to confer with the
commission regarding a suitable loca,
tion for the Olympia and to bring
this recommendation back to the
committee tomorrow morning, wher
favorable action is promised on the
bill.
Would Restore Guns.
Another amendment contemplates
restoration to the Olympia of as much
of its original guns and other equip
ment as can be located. The Navy
Department is called upon to make q
report also on this. BY unanimou;
consent the authorized appropriation
for establishing this Navy memoria
in Washington is increased from
SIS 900 to $4,000.
Representative Mas, Republican
of Minnesota, led his colleagues or
the committee in requiring restoration
of the old guns and equipment.
