Excerpt from Investigation of Panama Canal Matters, Vol. 3: Hearings Before the Committee on Interoceanic Canals of the United States Senate in the Matter of the Senate Resolution Adopted January 9, 1906, Providing for an Investigation of Matters Relating to the Panama Canal, Etc I wish, therefore, simply as an American citizen, to put the judg ment which I have formed on the basis of these experiences before vou, and through you before the Congress, to assist in reaching what I am sure every member of it, of both arties, ardently desn'es to reach - a conclusion as to the best type 0 canal and the best method of doing the work involved in its construction. Of course I recog nize that the committee may well differ from me and the majority of the Board of Consulting Engineers for the Panama Canal as to ty of canal and may differ far more with far greater freedom as to t 0 best method of constructing it, but I feel that I will have done In full duty when I have laid my views before you and given you, as ar as I am able, the reasons upon which they rest in my own mind. In considering the question of alternate plans for the canal, whether it should be upon a high level with locks, or upon a sea level without locks, my judgment as an engineer is controlled by several principles which commend themselves to me as really fundamental, and so far as I am concerned, conclusive.
