LIBERAL CHIEF i OF NICARAGUA FOR UmUANAL Editor's Interview Reveals Facts Denying Secret Calles Agreement. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Foreign Editor, Scripps-Howard Newspapers WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. —“The Nicaraguan Canal, owned and controlled by any other country than the United States, would be a menace to all Central America. “I will go even further than that. Any but a United States proprietorship over any Central American canal connecting the Atlantic and Pacific, would threaten the sovereignty of every Latin-American country, because it would menace the United States, whose protection we need. Urges Early Construction "These are some of the reasons why I not only favor the interoceanic waterway across southern Nicaragua, as planned by the United States, but would like to see it begun at the earliest possible moment.” The above quotation is taken verbatim from notes I made last January after an interview with Dr. Juan Bautista Sacasa, president of the liberal government of Nicaragua and head of the revolution against Adolfo Diaz, whom the liberals consider illegal president of the country. I republish what Sacasa said because it is in direct opposition to charges now being published that Sacasa was in secret agreement with President Calles of Mexico to block the United States’ canal plans. The interview took place In the Liberal leader’s ten-by-twelve executive office and revolutionary headquarters in Puerto Cabezas, on the eastern, or Mosquito coast, of Nicaragua. Stories had been circulated in the United States before I left linking Sacasa with a Mexi-

foreign minister at Puerto, Cabezas. He said much the same thing, adding a few reasons of his own why the liberals desire the United States to cut a canal across tneir country. “It would make Nicaragua a crossroads of the world,” he said, “and bring us some very much needed prosperity.” The Mexican embassy In Washington dubs the documents, purporting to connect President Calles and Sacasa with a plot to block the canal, a forgery. I know nothing about the papers in question. But I do know, from having frequently talked with him on the subject, that Sacasa was well aware that the United States and only the United States would ever dig a canal across Central America.

GOOD-WILL AIR TRIM’RAISED Foreign Flights Beneficial, Says Aviation Head. Bu United Press WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—Foreign flights by army aviators were recommended as a War Department policy by F. Trubee Davison, assistant Secretary of War for aviation, in his annual report today. “I believe that flights such as the Pan-American flight should be encouraged,” he said. “The value is

ma.iy times greater than the expense involved." Davison reported progress in carrying out the five-year army aviation expansion program, but deplored housing conditions of the air corps and urged speedy solution of the inadequate promotion problem. “It is estimated that the first increment (of the five-year program), as laid down in the War Department plaps, will be substantially completed on June 30, 1928,” Davison said.
