Now that the Nicaraguan canal has
progressed to such a point that action
seems certain, its opponents have drop
ped most other arguments against it
and concentrated on the money side
They claim that the enormous expend-
iture required will have serious effect
in this country; that 100000 900 can
not be taken from the productive indus
tries and put Into one which for years
to come must prove absolutely unpro-
ductive, without causing disturbance
that the extension of our coast line to so
distant a point, will necessitate the
building of a huge navy which will cost
heavily. On the other side. however, it
is urged that the canal will cost only
at the rate of $2O.O0O,O00 a year and
much of this money will come back to
the United States in the purchase of
machinery and 80 forth, and that in any
event, this sum, vast as it is, is nothing
to country that can afford to spend
$40 100000 year indefinitely in pen
sions alone. The arguments against the
canal are generally regarded as weak
and there is little expectation of their
exercising any appreciable effect on
Congress.
