CANAL
WILL Be FAILURE
Senator Teller States That
Six Locks Will Be Dis
aStrOuS.
ESTIMATED COST TOO LOW.
SAYS THAT HE DOES NOT THINK
THAT STRIP OF WATERWAY
CAN BE BUILT FOR THAT
AMOUNT APPROPRIATED.

Washington, Feb. 10 Il predict
that the Panama Canal will be an alb
solute failure if made with six locks
and will never meet the demands of
commerce." said Senator Teller in
speaking this afternoon on the item
carried in the Urgent Deficiency bill
appropriating S12,000,000 for continu-
ing work on this waterway.
ut is one hundred times more risky
than a sea level canal said Mr.. Tell.
er. 1T may cost a little less. but not
much, when completed. l do not be-
lieve there is an engineer in this
country who thinks the canal can be
built for 100000, 900. If it is finished
for $500,000,000 and proves to be a
good and successful canal, it will dis
appoint the best engineers in the
world Some OF you will live to see
the present Panama Canal abandoned
just as some of you will live to see a
sea level canal successfully completed
and capable of accommodating the
worlds commerce."
Senator CulbertSon started the dis
cussion by calling attention to the as
surance given in 1905 that no part of
the Canal appropriation should be
used for publicity work. Since then,
he said. the work of publicity had
gone further than before and even a
newspaper has been established TO
disseminate information.
Senator Culbertson said the same
man. Joseph B. Bishop, who managed
the Publicity Bureau. is now in
charge of the Canal Record. He has
simply been shifted from the United
States to the Canal Zone and his du,
ties enlarged.
Senator Bacon thought that after
Congress had expressed its disapprov-
