Sculptor Oscar A. w. Hansen
may be winning the Second
Battle Of Yorktown"-with an
assist from Congress.
The House Appropriations
Committee yesterday voted
$4,000 for a new Liberty monu-
ment shaft at the Revolutionary
War battlefield at Yorktown, Va.
And the Interior Department
said Sculptor Hansen would do
the designing.
Norwegian-born Mr.. Hansen;
who lives in Charlottesville, Va,
has been feuding with the In
terror Department for some
months over the 70-year- old
battle monument, which towers
100 feet over the Yorktown bat
tlefield.
Victory Decapitated.
In 1912. the statue of Victory,
which stands at the top Of the
Yorktown monument. was struck
by lightning and decapitated.
Five years ago, the National
Park Service hired Mr.. Hansen
to design and chisel out a new
granite statue and mount it atop
the existing shaft. The sculptor
signed a $4,000 contract.
Mr.. Hansen chiseled away.
But last year. almost finished,
the 61-year-old sculptor came up
with a protest against the
ornate monument proper. He
said it was cracked and unsafe,
and furthermore, he charged, it
is ugly. He branded it mid
Victorian"
Last January the sculptor took
his case to Interior Secretary
Mckay, with an offer to design
q new monument shaft that
would be more fitting" Moth
ing came Of the conference, how
ever.
Mr. Hansen then went to see
a fellow Scandinavian (by ex-
traction) - Representative Jen-
sen, Republican. of Iowa. Mr..
Jensen happens to be chairman
Of the House Interior Appropri-
ations Subcommittee. Mr.. Jen-
sen made some inquiries Of In
terror OficialS, and yesterdays
action was the result.
Time on Statue Extended.
The Interior appropriation
may get to the House floor by
next Monday. Only Senate ap-
proval will be needed after that

thats the sculptor already has
been given a years extension
from the scheduled April II COM
pletion date for his statue.
The new $4,000 would cover

the projected replacement of the
statues base. Additional funds
would be needed for the actual
construction later.
Mr. Hansen said last night the
design for the new shaft is still
in my head" and he didn't know
how long it might take to COM
plete it He hopes to get the
entire monument finished in
time for nearby Jamestown's S
