The writer laments the destruction of the Oregon battleship during wartime, criticizing the scrap process that funded the war while leaving a historic vessel to rust. The piece recalls the ship’s 1898 voyage around the Horn to Santiago and argues the public and officials sought preservation, only to be denied by a war-minded administration.
