Washington.-Organ of per
manent government for the Panama
canal zone to supersede the Isthmian
canal commission on April first was
authorized by President Wilson with
the announcement that the nomina-
ton Of Colonel George w. Goethals
to be first governor of the canal zone
would be sent to the Senate in a few
days.
Colonel Goethals' idea of a "one-
man government" is carried out in
the executive order which was made
public by Secretary Garrison after the
Cabinet meeting. The authority of
the governor is to be supreme under
the secretary of war.
Official notification of his selection
was cabled to Colonel Goethals at
Panama. Secretary Garrison said he
was confident there would be no
question about acceptance. The
change in title will mean loss of
$4,000 year to the head of the zone,
as the governors salary will be $10,-
900, and he now receives $4,000 as
chairman of the commission.
Secretary Garrison announced that
1t was proposed to resolve the mem
bers of the commission, with the ex-
ception of Colonel Goethals, into a
new commission to arrange for ana
conduct the ceremonies incident to
the opening of the canal. Congress
will be asked to provide the necessary
legislation.
AS the executive order not only
terminates the existence of the canal
commission on April first but also the
present organization of the working
force in the zone. many of the army
officers connected herewith will lose
the increased pay which they have been
receiving under the commission form
of government.
