What gives both the Army and Navy most con- 81 Ludovico Granion ce Hont: | very small when you look at the service | organization performs for this com- cern is the relative vulnerability of lock and sea-level canals. Even before the atomic bomb appeared it looked as if a few block-busters of the type dropped on German cities during the vear of war might cripple both old and new locks, separated they would be by only half a mile at most. The atomic bomb increased this appréhension. It fololws that we must consider the relative merits of sea-level and lock canal in the light of new exigencies As matters stand, the argument seems to be in favor of the lock canal which the Navy recommends. sea-level canal is not much less vulnerable to atomic than a lock canal, and in any event ihere would have to be a lock on the Pacific side to over- come the difference in level that prevails there over the Atlantic side. Both the Army and Navy agree that a large lake or basin should be provided on the Pacific side in which shibs can anchor when fog makes it dangerous to go throug hthe narrow Culebra cut and that a sea-level canal would require much dredging. No doubt Congress will weigh the relative advantages of the two types of canals, but in its present temper it is likely to vote for the Navy lock canal, which will cost about $500,000,000, as compared with a billion and a quarter and possibly two billions for the sea-level plan.
