THE. POLICY TO BE PURSUED
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, July 6.--Llfe on the
1sthmus of Panama Is to be made health.
full. comfortable and enjoyable before
the real work Of digging the sanal is be.
gun. according to an announcement ,ol
policy made today by Chairman shonts
OF the Panama Canal Commission. Mr.
Shonts said:
Our first duty IS 70 create sound
underlying conditions This is now
vastly more importa mt than the moving
dirt. The men maat9 have suitable
houses In healthy surrouhdings; they
must haveawholesom and nourishing
food at reasonable cost; they must
have suitable. transportation facilities
to get to and from their work, and
they must have opportunity for re-
Z. creation afforded them. i It will be the
policy OF the commission to provide
these essentials as quickly as possible
5 ana to only Increase Il the working
force aside from the mechanics neccs-
sary to provide these necessities, as
fast as the facilities indicated can be
.furnishe The commission realizes
That Its adherence to'this policy will
result In the actual handling Of less
q quantities of material temporarily,
butt also knows that with 5healthy
underlying conditions vastly more will
be accomplished later on at less cost
and with less friction. &
1T will also be the invarable policy
of the commission TO give to the public
the actual conditions as they exist
on the Isthmus. without any attempt
to either color or conceal. So much
has been said by the press OF an ex-
aggerated character about health con-
diuons there, that 1t may be wise to
recapitulate the facts regarding yellow
fever. There have been between nine
and ten thousand employees on the
1sthmus since the disease first APP
peared In May. During that month
there were twenty canal employees
stricken and two deaths. In June
thirty canal employees were stricken
and four deaths, two of those dying
being Americans appointed In the
United States and two persons APP
pointed on the Isthmus. There were
also three cases OF fever among en-
q ployes of the Panama Railroad Com
pany and no deaths. During the
month OF July, up to the 9th. there
have beeniSno new cases, and there
is but one cmploye under treatment.
I'm regard to the wages paid and
the statements that SO many men have
left because of reduction In salaries,
the fact Ia that wages. instead OF hay
ing been reduced. have been very con-
{ sideraby increased in every branch
OF the service on the Isthmus during
the life Of the present commission"
