April 1.—The Panama canal zone began business today un- der a permanent form of government. The Isthmian Canal~ commission, which has governed the zone during the construction of the waterway, was dissolved, and a civil ad- ministration, semi-military in char- acter, was established. Colonel George W. Goethals, by appointment of the president of the Panama, \ Sealed Tighter Than a Flower In Its Bud United States, became its first gov- ernor. His inauguration was remark- able. There were no ceremonies, no speeches, no display. In his office on the top of Culebra Hill, overlooking the now famous cut of that name, OOl Goethals, chair- man and chief! engineer of the Isthmian Canal commission, simply began his day's t(ork *under a new title—*“Governor ahd Chief of the De- partment of Opération and Main- tenance.” 1 % 0 Outwi Show. i In the’big cut Pelow, while ' the colonel figuratively” transferred his power from one hand to another, the steam dredges were tearing away at the fot of Curcaracha slide, and locomotives were busy hauling away more of the daily spoil. Work 'pro- gressed as usual dlonig the whole route of the canal.. There were no éxtra flags flying, no outward ghow of any kifid that the governmeft of the zone was undergoing any changes. These were changes in name merely, $0 'far as most of the canal workers were concerned. Hver . since Col. Goethals became the iguiding spirit of the work he has been the ‘“benevo- lent despot” of the Isthmus, andithere are few new faces in the group of men who have found a place in the Permanent government. i The list has been annquncéd as follows: 3 i H Engineer of maintenance—Col.
