improvements In Original Plans
Certain changes have been made in the original pro-
ject the most important being the withdrawal of the
locks from Sosa to Mirahores which recommended
and adopted In December, 1907 This resulted in
change in the direction of the channel in Panama bay
island which, by cutting of the sltbearng crosscur-
rent which has always been troublesome protects the
channel against sitting
second change s the widening of the AZ miles
of Cuebra width of 300 feet ut the bottom This
done by executive order and not made on the
recommendation of the commission.
third change is the location of the breakwaters in
Colon harbor. The necessity for these breakwaers
made apparent in the latter part of January. when

break them up.
