WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. - "TIie
United Statos should elthor submit

declaration of Senator Root In t&o

tho repoa! of tho free toll provisfoci
of tho now Panama Cannl act. Son
ntor Root took tho position that cou
gress should not linvo passed n law
that discriminated against foretp
shipping and granted freo tolls tc
American coastwlso shipping. Root
declared that congress had become
tired boforo tho bill was takon up
last summer and that tho bill novci
rocelvcd proper consideration.
Root declared that "Decent regard!
for tho opinions of mankind was ooa
of tho motives sot by tho people ini
thoso colonics In tho groat declara
tion of their Indopondenco," Ho out
lined tho relations botwoon tho Uc&
ted States and Great Britain, which!
led to making tho Hny-Pnuncofoot
treaty Jn 1901, undor which the
cannl wns constructed. "Tho United
States gavo up nothing It thon had,""
said tho soiiotor. "Its obligation!
In that treaty woro cntlroly looking
to tho future But Great Britain
gavo up Its right to tho protectorate
over tho Mosquito Coast, which ti
was showed would bo tho oasteru
termlnous of tho canal."
From tho treaty, Root read the
declaration that tho proposed canal
wns to bo opon "on oqual terniB tc
nil."
"On that representation, Grout
Brltnln relinquished hor right to ah'
control ovor tho future or the Pana
ma Canal and consented to the aban
donment or tho Clayton-Ilulwor trea
ty." "You are not nt liberty," Root ni
sorted, "to dlsiiimlnate In tolls at
