PANAMA CANAL
to be Completed December l, 1918
This is the Promise Made by
President Taft

Panama, Nov, Is. The Panama
canal will be completed Dec. l, 1918.

dent Taft today while inspecting the
Gatun dam. The official date of the
opening remains Jan. l, 1915, Lieut..
Col, Goethals desiring one year in
which to train the canal tenders and
to get the machinery working smooth.
Ships meantime will be granted the
privilege of the canal, but at their

the colonel that the report that
President Taft's visit was the fore
runner OF another appropriation was
unfo unded.
The canal will be completed in 1913
he said within the 1915, 900, 900 already
authorized.

congratulated Colonel Goethals. He
expressed amusement at the work ac-
complished since his visit in Febru-
ary, 1909.

was under way nearly three hours on
the spur tracks overrunning the great
fill.

The movement TO secure a intelligent national
organization of health is now being pushed. What is
needed is that the federal government should make
the national capital model of sanitation, should pro-
vide for more investigation n health matters and the
dissemination of information ON the prevention Of
tuberculosis &C., should cooperate further with State
and municipal authorities and should check the polu

method of collecting statistical information as to our
national mortality and morbidity. Our shortcomings
