FORTIFlcATioNs FOR PANAMA
WILL BE A WORLD MARVEL

Our military engineers are Install
ing Notifications which will make the
Panama canal as deadly an agent in
time of war as it will be profitable
in time of peace.
Mounted as monumental defender
of this biggest ditch will be the big
gest gun on earth-the monster 16-
inch cannon now at Sandy Hook. 1t
will soon be placed on one OF the
islands at the Pacific entrance.
There will also be twenty-five huge
guns at each end of the canal At
the Atlantic end they will be Install
ed in Forts Randolph, Sheridan and
DeLesseps, which are being built on
either side of the Bay of Limon.
Three islands at the Pacific end, con-
nected with the mainland by an ar
tificial breakwater, will bear the de-
fenses for that entrance to the canal.
AT the Pacific entrance, batteries
are being located on three islands,
connected with the mainland by an
artificial causeway. The worlds big
gest gun, the 16-inch monster, will
be on Flamenco island. On Perico
island there will be one 14-inch gun,
and on Naos, where the main bait
terry will be mountings for one IA
inch gun, two 6-inch guns and eight
12-inch mortars have beeen laid.
At the Atlantic end, two 14-inch
guns are being Installed on Toro
Point, with two 6-inch guns and 12-
the forts on Margarita island will
contain two 14-inch guns and two g.
inch guns.
In addition, there will be a num-
Der of 6-inch guns at each end of
the canal guarding the actual en-
trance, and several more 14-inch
guns and twenty 4.7-inch howitzers
will be located at points of vantage.
Besides the forts, there will be
flotilla of submarines always on
guard in the harbors at Balboa and
Colon. and the channels will be
mined and protected with the lat
est and most destructive of torpe-
does.
The locks themselves will be guard
ed with guns especially designed to
ward off the attack Of aeroplanes.
Only by dropping bomb square on
to one Of the lock gates could an
aeroplanist injure the works, and 1t
is figured that the defenders could
keep all flying machines at such a
height that their pilots would have
only one chance in a thousand Of
hitting the gates.
These magnificent Notifications are
expected to serve three distinct pur-
poses.
First, they will practically double
the American navy by making the
present fleet available for both the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Secondly, the great disappearing
guns will prevent any warship ap-
preaching near enough to drop a
shell into the locks and thus put the
entire canal out of commission.
Lastly. the forts will aid the in

landing upon the coast. Their bat

INITIATING ROAD BILL

Petitions for the initiation of the
bill to provide for a half mill levy
for good road purposes in Colorado
are now in the hands of every board
of county commissioners in the state.
In addition, these petitions have al
so been sent to every commercial
body, and it is hoped to have the
81 900 signatures needed by May 18th
so that the measure may be among
the first to be filed with tile Sec
retary of State.
These petitions are being sent out
by the Colorado Good Roads associa-
ton, and the campaign is being han
died entirely by that organization,
the membership of which is rapidly
increasing in every part of the state.
The constant increase in the mem
bership of the association is one of
the best indications of the popular
ity OF the campaign now under way
to secure for Colorado the funds
needed to carry on tie road work
now under way under the supervision
of the State Highway Commission.
Unless the measure as proposed is
adopted by the people this fall, the
building of roads by the counties
with state aid will be practically at
a standstill. The half mill levy pro-
posed will give to Colorado a fund
of about 100000 which will enable
the work now outlined to be carri-
ed on to a successful conclusion.
This bill has the unqualified en-
dorsement of the State Association
of County Commissioners, as we'll as
that Of many local road organizations
throughout the state. The fact that
the entire number of signatures need
ed to initiate the bill is being Sc
cured by voluntary work is another
indication Of the popularity Of this
campaign for better roads.
