Today our industrial society is congested; there are more workers than there is work; there is more
capital than there is investment. We do not need more money - we need more circulation, more
employment. Therefore, we must find new markets for our produce, new occupation for our capital,
new work for our labor. . . ."

SS 11 Panama Canal Activities
A trip along the canal from its Atlantic entrance would take you through a 7 mile dredged channel in Limón
Bay. The canal then proceeds for a distance of 11.5 miles to the Gatun Locks. This series of three locks
raise ships to Gatun Lake. It continues south through a channel in Gatun Lake for 32 miles to Gamboa,
where the Culebra Cut begins. This channel through the cut is 8 miles long and 150 metres wide. At the end
of this cut are the locks at Pedro Miguel. The Pedro Miguel locks lower ships 9.4 metres to a lake which
then takes you to the Miraflores Locks which lower ships 16 metres to sea level at the canals Pacific
terminus in the bay of Panama.
Math Questions:
1. Use the information above to figure out how many miles long the trip through the canal is.
2. If locks raise ships the same number of meters as they lower them in the end, how many meters
above sea level do the series of three locks raise ships to get them to Gatun Lake?
Geography/Visualization Questions:
Draw a diagram depicting the route, including the distance, elevation and names of each section of the
canal.
Medical researchers at around this time were becoming more receptive to the idea of a relationship between
mosquitoes and malaria and yellow fever. Dr. Carlos Juan Finlay, as early as 1881, had become convinced
that yellow fever was transmitted by a specific mosquito vector, the Stegomyia fasciata (later to be named
the Aedes aegypti). The only problem was that he couldn’t prove what appeared to most at the time to be a
totally far-fetched theory. However, others would take their lead from Finlay. Dr. Henry Rose Carter
doing research in Mississippi discovered “extrinsic incubation,” the fact that a specific period of time was
involved in the person to person transmittal of the disease. However, the great yellow fever discoveries in
Cuba in 1900 were the work of Dr. Walter Reed, who happened at the time to be Gorgas’ commanding
officer, who proved that Stegomyia fasciata was the carrier, debunking all previous theories, including the
belief that "fomites," the term used for the soiled clothes or bedding of yellow fever victims, could spread
the disease. Gorgas, himself a yellow fever survivor and thus immune to the disease, was a particularly
valuable member of the medical team. Still skeptical, however, he suggested to Reed that, to prove the
theory once and for all, Havana needed to be rid of the Stegomyia fasciata and the results observed.
Gorgas, with Reed’s approval, began the work in February of 1901. Results showed a dramatic reduction
in yellow fever cases – from 1,400 known cases in 1900, to only 37 cases in 1901; none of them after
October. The eradication procedures didn’t just kill off the Stegomyia fasciata, but reduced the Anopheles
population as well, thus decreasing malaria cases by more than half. These same techniques were what
Gorgas brought with him to Panama in 1904.
The breeding habits of the Stegomyia, which leads them to flourish in and around human habitations, made
them much easier to kill than the malaria-carrying Anopheles, which are found everywhere – jungles as
well as back yards, making them very difficult to control. Besides, as Gorgas continually stressed, malaria
was far more dangerous than yellow fever, accounting for the largest loss of life.
For Gorgas, it was urgent to get a jump on mosquito eradication before workers arrived and became
infected with yellow fever and malaria. Reducing and eradicating the swarms of mosquitoes was a huge
task. But some information about the general habits of mosquitoes was known. Further knowing that the
Anopheles mosquito cannot fly far without lighting on some sort of vegetation gave additional information
to those involved in eradication efforts.

The Zimmerman Note
to the German Minister to Mexico
Berlin, January 19, 1917
On the first of February we intend to begin submarine warfare unrestricted. In spite of
this, it is our intention to endeavor to keep neutral the United States of America.
If this attempt is not successful, we propose an alliance on the following basis with
Mexico: That we shall make war together and together make peace. We shall give
general financial support, and it is understood that Mexico is to re-conquer the lost
territory in New Mexico, Texas, and Arizona. The details are left to you for settlement....
You are instructed to inform the President of Mexico of the above in the greatest
confidence as soon as it is certain that there will be an outbreak of war with the United
States and suggest that the President of Mexico, on his own initiative, should
communicate with Japan suggesting adherence at once to this plan; at the same time,
offer to mediate between Germany and Japan.
Please call to the attention of the President of Mexico that the employment of ruthless
submarine warfare now promises to compel England to make peace in a few months.
