Not a Presidential Aspirant.
Someone suggested not long ago
when the canal is finished in 1918. 1t
would be good thing to groom Col
Goethals, fresh from his achievements
in Panama. for the presidency. The
colonel has no such notion. mo poll
tics for me, now or hereafter" he
said When 1 get through with this
JOB, II 1t is my good fortune to COM
plete the work, I shall then devote
myself for a little while to writing an
official report covering the construc-
ton of the big waterway Then 1 shall
take my gripsack in hand and do
little long-deferred travelling. after
which I hope to enjoy a life of quiet
in my own country. Any man who
suggests my name in connection with
politics at any future time will not
be friend OF mine"
One Of the most characteristic traits
or the chief engineer is his extreme
caution If everything does not work
smoothly when the canal is completed
it will be despite every possrple pre-
caution that human foresight could
devise. He never accepts a theory un-
til he has exhausted every possible
plan Oh putting II In practice The
Gatun dam controversy affords an in
teresting illustration of his determine
ton to so to the very bottom of things
and to make everything as certain as
1t is humanity possible to make It
When president Roosevelt sent a COM
mission of the best engineers in
America to the canal zone to settle
that controversy, one of them. after
going over the details of the work for
days declared that he had never seen
such thorough Investigations. and that
the whole commission might sit at the
feet Of this man and learn how to
make things certain.
Has One Ambition.
Col. Goethals has one ambition. AT
ter the canal has been completed he
wants tc see its operation so provided
for and worked out that through all
the years to come 1t will prove as
great a blessing to America as its niost
sanguine friend has ever predicted.
Having had part in the final decis-
ion in favor of a lock canar he fees
the tremendous responsibility that
rests upon his shoulders; knows that
If it is a success he will leave name
to posterity; that IL 1T is a failure his
lifework is in vain. and under these
conditions the world may be assured
that no doubtful expedients will be
resorted to in perfecting the waterway
that probably will live through all
time as the greatest engineering task
to which man ever addressed himself
