Paris. June l.-As the time for
the opening of the Panama Canal
approaches, European countries are
showing more and more interest in
the probable political and CONNER
cial effects OF the cutting Of the two
Americas by a waterway.
France, from a political stand
point. has practically no interest in
the canal. The political problems
and possible quarrels Of France of
the future lie solely in Europe, it is
agreed. But from q commercial
standpoint, the opening of the canal
is Of the greatest importance, and
the French Commission, which IS
now in American waters trying TO
find a suitable coaling sattion for
French merchant ships, has been IN
s,rncfed to study the problem from
every standpoint. as France wishes
to find new markets for her exports.
