WILL SOON BUILD CANAL.


New York, May IA World dispatch
from Washington says:
Congress will soon be called upon to de-
eide the question OF building a canal con-
Meeting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Chairman Davis, OF the senate foreign re-
lations committee. said:
The need FOR action between the At
our interests demand Il. With a canal
between the two oceans we would have
nothing 10 fear from an attack on our
Pacific coast As II would take US sixty
days to send our fleet around the Horn
TO the Pacific coast cities. with the canal
we could dispatch men-Of-war from San
Francisco to New York in fourteen days.
With liberal appropriation, say $4,000
oo0, canal could be constructed through
Nicaragua that would be Of great value
10 the United States government for all
time The maritime canal company which
Is endeavoring to sell its interests to the
government started the canal some time
ago and considerable work was done. but
the hard times of 1926 came along ana
The company succeeded in getting certain
concessions which It still retains. and Il is
but right that the United States should
buy these concessions and pay the canal
company for the work II has already
done. do not know just how much it
has accomplished. but am told that con-
siderable excavation has been done on the
Pacific side OF the canal The company
has some dredgers, scows. etc. which we
could well AFFORD to buy.
