Madden Proposes Army Contract Canal Plan in House
Representative Madden of Illinois introduces a bill to build the Panama Canal under the Army Corps of Engineers with contracts awarded to lowest bidders after advertisement. The plan puts engineering work under the Isthmian Canal Commission with the War Department assigning engineers. The measure argues a sea level canal could be cheaper and faster under contracts, with contractors handling labor and machinery while the commission handles business. The system would require timely completion under risk of penalties.

Insurgents Claim Near Statehood Vote Victory
Fifty-six Republican votes with Democrats could derail the administration’s Statehood policy in Oklahoma and Indian Territory. Insurgents report forty-seven pledges to oppose the rule enforcing joint Statehood. They expect five more Republicans to join, leaving fifty-two pledges, four short of the needed margin, with over thirty in doubt. The pledge demands time for debate and a separate vote on the two propositions and for amendment. The fight hinges on House managers and possible concessions such as a public building bill to sway votes. The Philippine tariff bill vote is set for Friday, with the Statehood bill following the urgent deficiency measure.
