President elect Taft sailed Tor Pan

inspect the canal work. Foreign engi-

the success of the canal which we are

Taft felt constrained to visit it and
satisfy himself that we are making no
mistake in lock canal. To carry this
out an enormous dam one and a half
miles long is being constructed at Gatun
to back up the waters of the Chagres
river and thus provide for the sailing
or the biggest steamers now afioat or
projected. Engineers of worldwide
repute assert that the dam will not
be strong enough to hold back the wa
ter and that a dreadful disaster will
some day verify this prediction. As
the building of this canal is the great
est engineering achievement undertake
en- In modern times, Mr.. Taft wants to
be sure we are proceeding along right
lines. No one attaches more impor-
lance to the undertaking than the man
who hopes to see it completed under
his administration. He is so concerned
that he intends to visit it every year
while the work is under way. If he
agrees with those who believe the dam
will be unable to bear the strain put
upon it he will turn to the sea level
plan While the latter would cost $l07,-
100000 more than the one we are now
working upon, it may be economy to
make the change The lock canal will
cost about S140,000,000 Mr. Taft has
seven engineers to aid him in solving
the problem rightly.
