known throughout the United States
as the father of the curfew." The
plan which has been the subject of cor
respondence between the president and
the engineering department and Hoge-
land is now in the hands of the canal
commission. 1t contemplates the build
ing of a concrete highway, the bottom
so feet above sea level, and which will
resemble a viaduct in passing the low
portions of the isthmus.
Rivers Pass Beneath.
The advantages claimed for the plan
are that it will allow rivers to be pass
ed under it, thereby obviating the dan
gers resulting from freshets; doing
away with the necessity for impound-
ing a vast quantity of water from
Chagres and other rivers in artificial
lakes by the Gatun dam and finally
avoiding the necessity for the immense
annual expense for dredging and keep
ing the canal clear, especially where 1t
passes through the artificial lake. Hoge-
land secured patents covering the prin-
ciples of the project some years ago.
