OFFICIAL
ANSWERS WEEKS
w. C. flushing Denies Canal
= Zone Employees Live Under
Socialistic Conditions.

That the Panama Canal earned
last year an average Of slso.5s3.33
per month over and above the cost
of operation and the maintenance OF
civil government, health department
and Washington office, was the
statement made Thursday by w. C.
Hushing.. of the Panama Canal
Wage and Grievance Board in an
swer to Secretary of War Weeks
attack OF extravaganza of the canal.
The reason for paying the canal
zone employees more than any other
government employees is that in sew
ering of business and social condi-
tions in the United States makes a
former employe of the canal
stranger in his own land on his re-
turn there. adds flushing. He
pointed out that the canal organiZa-
tion is recognized as the best or
ganized and most efficient force IN
the world, in answer to Weeks ref
erence of the Panama Canal gov
ernment is a pure example of state
socialism
In explaining why free house rent
is given the employees flushing says:
The canal zone Is a government res
ervation and no one may own land
or construct anything upon It; the
policy OF furnishing quarters for
the employees is the same az Is in
vogue with the army and navy and
the large fruit cable and mining
companies doing business in South
and Central America.
