Special to The Democrat)

Washington, D. C., April 20-Con- necticut has thirty-six non-federal projects on the Public Works Ad- ministration approved list for prompt consideration should Con- grress enact the presidents program for public works expansion, accord ing to announcement made today by Senator Lonergan, CD Connecticut. The total estimated cost of approved projects, the senator said, is $21,- ITS ,425, of which the federal grant portion amounts to $9,798,989.
 Senator Lonergan made it clear that selection of projects to be un- dertaken would depend upon the law enacted by Congress. He said that there is some likelihood that the law will be limited to certain types of public construction, which automatically would eliminate some projects on the list which was set up by the examining division of the PWA. on a 45 per cent grant basis as of April 18th, 1888.
 1Wo pLOJeCES dle HiCluoeu lol wa terbury, one of $300,OO0 specified as for pipe line, another for $l66,924, street improvement.
 Report of City Engineer Charles A. Root on these two PWA items indicates that the city sought ap- proval for the projects more than year ago and that one of them, the pipe line laying on Watertown avenue. was undertaken by the city when the state PWA officials said that the project had failed of gov ernmental approval. The same was said to be true of the project for paving Baldwin street, the other item now under presidential con- Sideration.

Spur Talk of Nicaragua Canal
Col. Sultan Is authority
on Proposed Ne,U

BY the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
The naval expansion program and
the tense situation in the Far East
are attracting attention Of authori-
ties to the project Of 4 Nicaraguan
canal.
Testimony Of Navy ofiicials before
the House Naval Affairs Committee
and the statement OF Admiral William
D. Leahy that the United States
Fleet is not capable Of defending both
the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts have
increased interest in the proposal.
Chairman Vinson of the House
Naval Affairs Committee told that
body: "The Nays eggs are all in one
basket-the Panama Canal-and at
some time In the future we may be
compelled to build a sea-level canal
somewhere In Central America"
Army and Navy officers say the
somewhere in Central America" ia
Nicaragua. They believe the canal Is
necessary to supplement the Panama
Canal for speedy transfer of the fleet
from one ocean to the other. They
hold, in addition, that the new canal
would have economic justification.
The official in Washington who
knows more about the project than
any other is Col. Dan I. Sultan. now
Engineer Commissioner OF the Dis
trict. Col. Sultan was chairman Of a
commission authorized by Congress
to survey and report on the Nicarag-
uan route.
Col. Sultan says:
THE cost would be in the neigh
borhood Of $722,00o,000.
1T would take 10 years to build. after
allowing years for negotiating the
necessary treaties and passing the re-
quired legislation, or q total OF IS
years.
The canal would be about 1874 miles
long. However, about 10 miles Of this
would be through Lake Nicaragua, SO
miles Of which would require no ex-
cavation and the remainder little ex-
cavation.
1T would be sea-level route, COM
paratively. but would require locks
