aid refers to it in some length. ut was
found that the Gatun rocks are rela-
lively solid and compact and suitable
for foundations for heavy structures.
However, some writer's, even recently,
have affirmed that the Gatun rocks
would soften into mud when Gatun lake
filled, and thus the locks and dam
would sink their foundations and be
damaged or destroyed Opinions OF
this sort spring from vivid imagina-
tion and not from facts.
"If the weight of Gatun lake is going
to force water into the Gatun forma-
ton and cause it to soften into semi
mud that will allow the dam to sink,
then al 1.-The islands in Gatun lake and
all the hills around it, which are Of the

bases softened the same way and sink
into the depths. Reports that the Gatur
