CANAL BUILDERS MAY
Be FIRST GOVERNORS
GoethaIs- Would Be Honored,
Then Others, BY Adam
sons Plan.

Representative Adamson, chairman OF
the House committee on Interstate and
foreign commerce, intends to recommend
to the President that each officer who
has served as a member of the isthmian
canal commission be appointed governor
Of the Canal Zone in succession. beginning
with Col George w. Goethals, and in
cluding Col William c. Gorgas, sanitary
expert; Lieut.. Col. H. f. Hodges. Lieut.
Col. William L. Sibert. Lieut.. Col David
Du B. Gailiard and Commander II. H.
Rosseau, United States Navy. Although
plans galore have already been proposed
by various officials for the final honoring
of the men who have made the canal,
Representative Adamson. whose commit
tee fashioned all the legislation regard
ing the canal, believes that it would be
entirely fitting that the first governor
should be Col. Gcethals and that the
succeeding governors should be his pres
ent aids.
Wishes to Retire
1t Is fairly definitely understood at the
Capitol that Col Goethals does not care
to remain to operate the canal, and that
he win probably retire on-y to step In
some enormous engineering project in
railway development, or, some other great
scheme. which will carry with it an enor-
nous salary.
Col. Goethals is u constructor. not an
operator, and adm .nistration officials who
have dealt with him are the authority
for saying that he does. not care to re-
man as governor OF the Canal Zone. for
very long. Therefore Representative
Adamson's suggestion, il adopted, would
allow the President to appoint Col. Goe.
thals as governor; Col. GoethaIs would
resign at the end of a year, or any other
term agreeable to him.. and his aids in
the big ditch would follow him in their
turn.
|. Provides Thanks of Congress.
i IA. bill providing for the thanks of
Congress and the promotion and re-
tirement. OF the officers named has al
Il eady been introduced by Representa-
tive Adamson and will probably receive
favoraDIe recommendation from the
committee on military affairs. to which
it has been referred.
The government of the Canal Zone
afrer the construction of the canal has
been completed, is alleady provided
for by Law, and despite the publication
today of a statement that recommended
tions by Col. Goethals would be used
in making up the coming government,
it was said at the Capitol that no
change would be made in the existing
law. AS soon as the canal is in operat-
ing condition the act provides that
the resident shall appoint governor
with the necessary number of aids
and bureaus After that appointment
IN, laws OF the canal snail be framed
by Congress.

TOO BUSY FOR LONG TITLES
Germans sensibiy AbbrevIate Names
Which They Realize Cause Much
Waste Of Time.

Long-winded German names are
something of trial to the world at
large. but the Germans themselves ap-
pear to have found the remedy. says
the Scientific American. In 1909 an
international aeronautical exposition
was organized at Frankfort-on-the-
Main. Its full name In German was
'Internationale Luftschiffahrt-Ausste
lung" After being abbrebiated to az
L. A." this ultimately became lila; :"
and as the lila" the exposition has
since been universally known. In like
manner the "Allgemeine Luftfahrtzeug-
Ausstellung" held last year in Berlin
was known as the Ala" and now we
hear OF the "Damnu." which. to the
busy man. Is happy substitute for
"Deutsche Ausschuss fur den mathe-
matischen und naturwissenschaft-
lichen Unterricht." "Imuk." which sig
nifies Internationale mathematische
Unterrichts-Kommis and "Datsch," :"
a condensation of Deutsche Ausschuss
fur technische Schulen.
OF course. this method of syncopa-
tion has its limits! since many combi-
nations OF initials are unpronouncable.
while others might be too grotesaue
to be palatable. On the other hand, it
seems likely that In future the names
of many expositions. societies and the
like will be deliberately selected with
reference to such abbreviation.
