should CONTROL
ROAD TO CANAL,
Thinks SIBERT
Pacific Coast ArtiIIeryman Is
Also Believer in Big Force
at Honolulu s. ....

Advocating the federal ownership
and control of system OF railroads
between the southern part of the
United States and the Panama Canal
Zone. the keeping of a permanent
armed force at Panama and Honolulu
and the placing of fleets in both
oceans, Brig.-gen, William l.. Sibet
commanding the Pacific-coast artillery
district, spoke recently to the Oak
land Chamber OF Commerce.
I'VE need volunteer system OF
some kind in this country" Sibert is
quoted in the San francisco Examiner
as saying, whereby every man will
do his duty, but we need perma-
nent force at Panama and Honolulu,
made up of men thoroughly familiar
with conditions, so that We can be in
position to meet any emergency. 49,.
1--WE have been in existence more
than a century, he, said, taking 4
fling at those who oppose prepared
ness, but we have never yet had suf'
ficient patriotism to solve our military
problems by realizing that every able.
bodied man in the country owes some.
Panama Most Important.
"As for Panama, it is by far the
most important of our outlying pos
sessions We hope that war will be
the exception and. peace the rule, but
it was, after all, a military need that
first prompted us to start this great
work. The maintenance of the neu
trality of this strip in times of peace
devolves upon the United States. as
the protection of its does in time OF
war. Our duty is therefore plain
We must take steps for the proper
protection of the zone against the en-,
croachments. of any power.
The canal is of the greatest
strategic importance, and, like al
such points, would be the first objec,
tive of an enemy, which would un
doubtcdly take any risk to put the
canal out of commission during the
period of the war. This is natural
because one of the first aims of war
fare is to divide the enemy, and the
capture of the Panama Canal GER
tainly would divide the naval forces
of this country and put us at seri
Gus disadvantage.
Should Enemy Land.
IF we leave undone those things
which it is most important that we
do, our punishment will be CORE
spondingly great if war should come
We all know that If an enemy could
land for few hours at either lock-
enough damage could be done to pre-
vent the use of the canal while the
conflict lasted. You can guess wha;
might happen to this. coast in that
emergency. ...--..-.
'.The fortification of the canal will
tend to lessen our navy needs. but not
to the extent that some seem to think
There should at all times be a large
fleet in both oceans. We have cen
ceived the idea that if we have forts
protecting city we are SAFE The
front door may be locked, but often
the back door is wide open"

Greene and the Senatorship.

The friends of Congressman Frank l.,
Greene can not be insensible TO the
handsome things now being said OF him
as possibility in connection with the
campaign for the United States Senate
Under certain circumstances not likely
to arise Greene might be drafted by Yer
mont for this position. As the situation
stands at present Vermont has more TO
gain from keeping the congressman from
the first district where he is than from
any other particular one thing the Green
Mountain state can do in the national
capital at this particular time.
This is another way of saying that
Congressman Greene himself can gain
more prestige for Vermont and conse-
quenty for himself where he is at this
particular time than he would secure
now even from an election to the United
States Senate. He realizes this fully
himself In his own words he is 'jog
ing along in an endeavor to serve the
people in the first district so nearly TO
their satisfaction that they may be will
ing to have me keep on doing it"
II may be we'll to show more in detail
why Greene and Vermont have more to
gain from his service in the House than
from his elevation to the Senate at this
time. Greene went to Washington fully
equipped by taste and aptitude and ex-
