Washington, d. C.-The National
Geographic society has issued a state

1T seems that the Panama canal
will carry most OF the freight passing

ed States and the western coast of
Latin-America and that the shorter
distance and lower rates which 1t Of

that the trade between the eastern and
western sections OF the United States
will be greatly increased and trans
ported at a much lower charge per
ton; that it will sufficiently shorten
the distances to Japan. northern
China, Australia and New Zealand to
increase steamship service and ma
teriaIly increase the traffic with those
countries, and that the European coun-
tries will use the canal In most OF
their traffic with western America and,
