The Future and the Panama Canal
Investigations under Public Law No. 280 (Seventy-ninth Congress, First Session, approved December 28, 1945) disclose that only an Isthmian sea-level canal will meet the future needs of interoceanic commerce and national defense. The broad phases of the studies leading to this conclusion are described in this paper. Various engineering features of the studies of the recommended sea-level canal are described more fully in the other papers of this Symposium.
