the platform favored the ecquisition OF
the canal by the government both as
commercial and military measure. There

vote of the House it was retained IN the
bill.
Representatives Small and Moore
spoke on the commercial aspects of the
canal, while Representative Miller dis
cussed the military and naval value. Mr..
Miller in the course OF his speech said;
"Mr. Chairman, the gentleman from
New York, CMr. Hubert who has
