CANAL PROGRAM

Sea Level Waterway May Replace Locks.

By ROBERT R. QUINN Times Foreign Correspondent BALBOA, Canal Zone, Aug. 6.— Construction of a third set of locks for the Panama Canal, begun before and abandoned during the second world war, today is the "greatest question confronting officials here, and one of paramount importance in Washington,

for both the Atlantic and Pacific sides. : | But now all of that has been changed and study has been resumed all over again. The atom bomb did it. 1 . Great excavations lie abandoned today less than half a mile from Miraflores locks on the Pacific and —strangely enough—east of the isthmus of Panama. Nagasaki, Hiroshima and Bikini probably are

three reasons why these excavations

Discussion On

America’s greatest engineering brains now are in the Canal Zone soberly discussing the matter with Governor Joseph C. Mehaffey, Col. James H. Stratton and Col, Frank Wang, the governor's executive secretary. These high-ranking officials will not commit themselves for publication regarding outcome of the discussions and’ possible decisions, many of which already have been made. Locks Idea ‘Dead’

But other officials of less rank or position—regulars in Canal Zone service—believe the third locks idea is as dead as the proverbial cat.

here is their reasoning: ONE: Modern engineering achievements and equipment render definitely possible the excavation and . reinforcement of cuts deep enough to replace the 85-foot “lift” necessary to bring shipping up to the level of man-made Gatun lake: TWO: Once constructed, a sealevel waterway would not require, beyond dredging and reinforcement, the complex and expensive machinery now in use in operating the locks. THREE: And most of all, a great ditch linked with natural waterways would not be nearly so vulnerable to atomic attack as is the intricate system of locks which now comprise the Panama Canal.

God’s own good earth is seen here as man's greatest protection against his most destructive weapon.

[BOTH PARTIES ARE

INVITED TO SESSION

Both Republican and Democratic nominees for county council seats have been invited to sit in on an appropriation session of the present council Thursday night.

Candidates for next year's council will be given an opportunity to review one of the biggest special session appropriation ordinances on record. ’

Requests for extra funds totaling more than $300,000 will’ be considered by the council Priday and Saturday after a preview with the candidates Thursday.

The unusual size of ‘the special appropriation requests was swelled by increased costs of government operations this year above the estimates set up in the budget a year ago. The largest rbquest is $76,000 asked by the county welfare department to cover increased benefits. The voters’ registration board is asking $26,000 additional funds for extra personnel and equipment.
