This means: first. inspreeno6le detenses
for the Panama Canal Zone and its
approaches; second, no enemy bases
anywhere in the Western Hemisphere.
Since the present war started. there
has been every effort made to make
the Panama Canal as attack-proof as
is possible. Today there are adequate
fixed antiaircraft guns guarding all
the great coast-defense batteries. Two
full regiments of mobile antiaircraft,
with 5000 men in each regiment, have
been rushed to the Canal. Two big air
ports, with ample fighting squadrons
of our best bombing and pursuit
planes, make daily reconnaissance and
practice fights. They. along with the
Navy patrol bombers. fly far out to
sea, watching every craft within two
or three hundred miles of the ap-
proaches.

Nevertheless it is possible that
stunt formation" of enemy bombers,
let loose from an aircraft carrier
hidden several hundred miles from
shore, or from land bases in the
Americas, might embark on swift
suicide mission and drop their bombs
on key Canal points. This will always
be a possibility - although very
remote one.
Greater danger lies in the blowing
up of ship in the locks that lead di-
rectly to the Gatun Lake, which
supplies the water for the series of
locks. Once the dams of this lock are
broken in the dry season it would be
impossible to use the Canal until the
next rainy season - May to Novem-

ocean Navy during this session of
Congress, and you'll probably be
reading more, so let's dispose of that
first. The two-ocean Navy idea is that
we should have two great battle forces,
more or less equal in size. One would
operate in the Pacific and the other in
the Atlantic. With a mighty feet
guarding each of our shores we should
be safe from any possible aggression
by any combination of powers.
Specifically, two-ocean Navy
would seem to be the answer. But -
and this is big but" in country
that has just completed ten years of
deficit financing - the cost would be
virtually prohibitive. Consider these
figures: a two-ocean Navy would mean
a total force of probably thirty first
line battleships alone, as compared
to the present authorized total of
sixteen; it would take possibly ten
years to build well-balanced two
ocean Navy and would call for a capi-
tai outlay of at least an additional
two to three billion dollars; operating
costs each year would be around a
billion dollars compared to half that
amount spent at present. Navy men
remember we'll the disastrous post
War experience when our statesmen
scuttled a quarter-billion dollars of
navy-in- making so that we might
set an example of disarmament to
world that didn't really want it. They
don't want to have to repeat any such
scuttling. Rather, they prefer to plan
a balanced defense program that Con-
gress will be willing and able to pay
for through the years.
And so the problem is to find an
alternate to the two-ocean Navy. The
answer is a single fleet that can be
moved rapidly from one ocean to the
other through the Panama Canal. 1t
is a perfectly adequate plan D-1
we can protect the Panama Canal
under any and all circumstances.
Under the single Mary plan, the key
to our whole naraI defense program is
the Pama,sa Canal. As long as it is kept
open and inviolate we can rely on our
single great battle force. In recent

years we have been secure in the
knowledge that the friendly British
Navy - which is our only naval
equal ~ would not threaten our At
lantic shores, and so our battle force
has been kept in the Pacific. while the
Atlantic has been guarded only by an
Atlantic Squadron of four of our Oldest
battleships, one aircraft carrier, four
of our newest and largest cruisers.
and some ninety or more old de-
stroyers.
The battle force in the Pacific is a
strong and well-balanced - although
fairly old - fighting fleet. Our eleven
finest battleships form its first line.
backed by the best and newest of
everything we've got.
Even if the British Navy we're wiped
out. such force - augmented by the
new ships now building - would
speak we'll for itself, even against
simultaneous attacks from two oceans.
No combination of powers would be
foolish enough to attack us unless
they had naval strength two or three
times our own. We could bide our
time behind our great bases in Hawaii,
and on our American shores, and then
attack at the moment and at the spot
we chose.
Even a small Atlantic Squadron
could be effective against anything
but a most powerful enemy fleet. 1t
would harass the enemy and cut to
pieces anything but its major fleet.
And eventually the great Pacific
battle feet would come to its rescue.
Now, the Number One Nightmare
that haunts our naval men is that
some day. in a crisis, when we are
being attacked on both our oceans,
the Panama Canal will be clogged up.
Moving our battle force all the thou
sands of miles around the tip of South
America could be done - just as it
was done by the grand old Oregon in
the Spanish-American War. But it
would be a heart-breaking and danger
Gus time-spending job.
What our Navy men demand is the
assurance that the Panama Canal be
kept open at all times and at all costs.
Evening star., 1940-02-11

guards carefully search every vessel
entering the Canal and other guards
accompany the vessel in its transit.
Still, it could be done - and it might
put the Canal out of commission for as
long as six months.
There is likewise the hazard OF
sabotage, but this is being carefully
watched by an alert Army and Navy
Intelligence, and every possible care
exercised.
Both the Atlantic and Pacific ap-
proaches are guarded by fourteen and
sixteen-inch guns that can fire fifty
thousand yards, and these are aug
mented by powerful mortars. On the
Pacific side alone batteries OF these
twelve-inch mortars. which can keep
thirty-six shells in the air at one time.
are so placed against the side of a
mountain that they cannot be bom-
barded from the air. This makes
enemy fleet action against these de-
fenses entirely impractical.
1t would be almost impossible for
foreign troops to land from transports
and capture the Canal. Our Army
General Headquarters Air Force could
send an additional fleet of their finest
bombers to the Canal on twenty-four
hours notice, and they would be of
great service to the Navy in making
any such landing impossible.
There are two systems of locks in
operation at this time. One is kept for
the Navy. And there is possibility
that money may be voted to construct
a third set of locks that would make
the Canal almost invulnerable to any
attack from land or air.
All in all, the Canal can be said to
be reasonably but not absolutely safe.
If we could arrange to lease or buy
the Galapagos. which lie 500 miles to
the west of the shores of Ecuador, we
could build there an air base that
would be as effective for Pacific de-
fense of the Canal as is the great new
air base in Puerto Rico for the Allan
tic side
So much for the first point. Now for
the second:
Here we get to the secret reason for
putting teeth into the Monroe Doc

phrase of hemisphere defense" but
