Bombs Can Ruin Canal.

New York Times 100 years ago today, November 23, 1912:
Easily Dropped from Airships Into Locks, Declares Miss Moisant.
Special Cable to The New York Times.
    PANAMA, Nov. 22.— Matilde Moisant, the aviatrice, who is here, says that the canal can be easily destroyed in a few minutes by bombs dropped into the lock chambers from airships flying from warships out of range of the forts.
    Miss Moisant is a sister of the airman of that name who lost his life in an aeroplane mishap nearly two years ago.
