SEMBUS PIIiOBEMS NK( EONFRONNT AS GOVERNOR THE COLONEL HAS QUi8TION4 AS PERPLEX IN, AS ANY iME HS HAD. (By Associated Press Cable.) Panama, Feb. 14.-"Making both ends: meet" is Colonel Goethals' pres ent problem, somewhat as it was when he came to dig the canal, but it now concerns itself with income and outgo Instead of bringing the two oceans together. There are only $47,000,000 left of the funds appropriated for con struction of the canal, and while this may appear a liberal sum for the fin ishing touches, Colonel Goethals he lieves that only an era of far-reaching economy will assure keeping within his allowance. He is determined that the $47,000,000 shall last until the canal is finally opened for commer cial use. Notwithstanding that many economies have already been put into practice, inCluding a great reduction of both the executive and laboring forcesaE expenditures generally must he still further cut down to make the apr.ropriation last. Nearly every ship that leaves the lsthmus for the United States is car rying big men and great who have laid down their shovels. The work on the canal is finished, and they must seek other employment. In some instances they hope to return as it employes of the permanent operating p force, but that organization is in such ti an embryonic state that none can know with what success he will meet. i It is probable that many will seek later to transfer the scene of their operations from the tropics to the V frozen north if the government goes ahead with the Alaskan railway proj ect. A, Sanitation of the isthmus is also again looming up as one of the prob lems of the canal. While not so acute as it was during the early years of construction, it is now an important matter by reason of the great extent of Gatun lake formed by the closing of the spillway at Gatun dam. Gatun lake at the 85-feet level at which it is proposed to maintain this portion of the great canal, has cov ered an area of a little more than 120 square miles of jungle. As the waters rose there was backed up in mainy out of the way places much water that is more or less stagnant. Some of this isj already being oiled by the sanitary division but much of it is in C isolated places and difficult of ac cess. The oiling squads wilt have to be kept at work indefinitely and this will make sanitation one of the im portant functions of the perman'ent government of the canal zone. To aid in the work it is hoped to ac quire a five-mile strip around that n portion of Gatun lake not within the p borders of the zone. Preparations for the electrification of the Panama railroad across the Isthmus of Panama practically will t be completed early this spring when r the high tension installation is fin- r ished. Already there have been erect ed many of the track span bridges which will carry the power across the isthmus. It is planned to manufacture at the s electrical power plant at Gatun about 7,000 horsepower which will be dis tributed to all the points along the isthmus for light andl power purposes. Much of 'this will be transmitted to the permanent headquarters town of Balboa, at the Pacific entrance to the canal where the large navy and other repair shops will be located. It is not the intention of the gov ernment to immediately undertake the complete electrification of the railroad for the reason that at present there is no knowing the amount of traffic the road will carry across the isthmus after the opening of the canal. Should ( this prove to be sufficiently large to t warrant the expense of making the change the railway will altogether cease to be a steam road. In anticipation of this possibility v the track span bridges are being erected and are wide enough to per mit the construction of a two-track road from Panama to Colon. CAUSE FOR PALLOR.

GIVE PROPER CARE 10 THE HAIR AND YOU WILL NEVER NEED A WIG The man who wears a toupee does not like it, bAt has the courage of his convictions. Nature never intended that the top of the head shovld he left entirely without protection. A bald head is very susceptible to contraction of colds and neuralgia. Wearing an ar tlficial top piece counteracts this ten dency, and, aside from the improve ment in the Iersonal appearance, is amply justified. How much better it would have been had the man, now chronically bald and wearing a toupee, but real ized earlier in life the approaching danger and devoted a little regular attention to his hair, which would have saved it. ,There is a remedy which will abso lUtely prevent baldness. Loss of hair in nine cases out of ten is unneces sagy, being due to dandruff and the germ that causes it. This germ must be destroyed and the accumulations of CANAL Z9NI POLICEMEN ' t ; :· V~V .ir~ 2b `.^F j 3Z" ·":r. An unusual problem has been solved , in policing the Panama canal zone. One of the most cosmopolitan popula tions in the world has been gathered in Panama. The workmen are obliged to live very close together. Many weird stories are told of crime and violence on the isthmus in the old i days. With the coming of the Amer- I leans, however, all this was changed. \ A large, well-disciplined force of po- I licemen have patrolled the zone, and life and property have become as safe BOOSTING BUSINESSI THROUGH THE CANAL GOVERNMENT AGENTS AND CON SULS SEEKING TO DIRECT TRADE THROUGH DITCH. (By Associated Press Cable.) London, Feb. 14.--That the govern ment at WVashington is making pre parations for increased emligration from Europe to the Pacific coast of tho United States on the opening of the Panama canal, is indicated by a reiquest to American conslls ill Eu-ll rope to furnish the department of la bor with reports on the 1plans being made by translportation agencies to handle the increased traffic. The con suls have also beon called upon to supplement thie work of special emi gration commisslners whon have visited Europe lately, dwith reports of the quacntity and quality of the exp)ected immigration. Earopean representatives of Amer ienn railroads welcome this action on the part of the American governmenllt as indieatlng the beginning of a move mentl by Washington to enei:rage the high type of emigration which Eng land anid ilermany are maliing every effort to divert to 'their own colonies. These governments offer every inl ducemenlt to steanmshilps a1nd railroads to handle this traffic while tile lagtuts of American transportation conllcerns complain that the American govern mient adopts a nogative policy, which, while effectively shutting out manly undesiralle immigrants, also discour ages the solid type of immigrant for whom there is still much room in the United Stales. Alexander Jackson, who has repro sented a lar'ge American railroad sys Item for many years in Europe, has suggested to the local American con sulate that the United States prepare booklete setting forth the agricultcural and business possibilities of the vari ouns states for free distribution in Europe. He believes that such book lets backed by the government im print wo:ld lead to a great incrase in the numbers of immigrants who are looking for farms or bullsiness oOpen ings rather than for ordinary iohs. : - ::_- _- - ._z -._ _ -__ . . . .. - __._ - _ dandruff checked.
