Canal Commissions Annual Report.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Although the
Panama canal is being built for the
benefit of the commerce of the world,
says Colonel Goethals, chairman of
the Isthmian Canal Commission, in
his annual report made public today,
it nevertheless is military asset to
the United States and conditions may
arise in which the military necessi.
ties Of the nation will become para
mount. Everything, therefore, must
be subordinated to the operation of
the canal and every precaution taken
to insure the safety of the locks. Col
onel Goethals recommends that the
authorities assume charge of all ves-
sells during their transit Of the locks.
He finds no reason to change the date
last set for the opening of the canal
to commerce, namely, July /, 1913.
