FREE TOLLS VS. A TREATY PLEDGE
ONE of the most interesting subjects to come before the
new national administration is that relating to tolls at
the Panama canal. Interest in the subject has been
heightened by President-elect Harding's visit to othe canal zone
and, by a statement by Senator Jones, chaistnan of the senate.!
commerce committee, that as soon as the new congress meets it
ill proceed at once to enact legislation providing for free tolls
tor American ships through the canal.
. There is no question but that the Chicago platform calls for
free tolls for American ships through the canal and that the
president-elect has endorsed this particular plank.
However, attention is also being called to the fact that the
Chicago platform also has another plank which says that "A
scrupulous observance of our international engagements when
lawfully assumed ie essential to our own honor and self-respect
.nd the respect of other nations."
; The two planks are held to be in direct conflict frorj the
fact that the Hay-Pauncefcte treaty says that all nations shall
be treated alike respecting tolls at the canal.
Section 1 of Article II. of the Hay-Pauncefpte treaty provides
that: .
The canal shall be free and.open to-the vessels of commerce
and of war of all nations observing these rules, on terms of etw
tire equality, so that there shall be no discrimination against any
Euch nation or its citizens or subjects in respect of the conditions
or changes of traffic or otherwise. Such conditions and charges
of traffic shall be just and equitable.
pianos of President Wilson th dptuiv-wn-n U nvkn nnr Kws eon
form to the treaty with Great Britain In that fight the Jpres!
icienc naa tne support 01 distinguished republicans una the ol
position of some democratic senators. The division. was not 01
party lines. ' -
The question at present as then relates not so much to th
merits of the contention that American ships should use the ca
nal without charge as to the obligation assumed under the Hay
i aunceiote treaty, -
Discussing the subject the New York World offers its opin
k n in tne louowing vigorous language :
elther Mr. Harding: nor any member of congress ran pretend that this In
ternational cmtaaenient was not "lawfully assumed." The Hay-Paunoefot
treaty was negotiated by a repuhlloan secretary of state, submitted to
publican senate, by a republican president and ratified hythe senate December
ia, ism. n means what It says, and that meaning was so understood b
fverybody at the time the treaty was negotiated and ratified.
The Hay-Paunoefote treaty was a substitute for the Olayton-Rulwer treat
or ihmi. in which the Vnlted States and Great Britain entered Into mutual oh
ligations In respect, to truns-islhmian traffic. Forty vears Inter the Hi ltls
government, at the request of the American government, modified the term
' 'bis treaty In order to permit the United States alone to construct a cana
jne i layton-tiuiwer treaty provided for "eo.mil terms for all," and this pro
. ! vision was Included In the Hay-Tauncefote treaty. I'nder no other conditions
could such a treaty have been, negotiated.
If rhe republican tree-tolls plank U enacted into legislation congress will
have repudiated the solemn obligations of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. Quit
apart from any economic question ot why the shinning Interests should be al
lowed to profit at the expense of all the American people who pay the cost of
maintaining tne canal, we shall be brought into court at once as a treaty-
meaner anu compelled to stand trial before the world.
. Germany a violation of the treaty with. Belgium was not more cynical than
the republican proposal u tear up the Hay-l'auncetote treaty, and It hud the
excuse of military necessity. The proposed republican raid for the profit of
me snipping interests is witnout even that scanty Justification.
ine worm can think of nothing that la better calculated to destroy all con
fidence in th good faith and International responsibility of the United States
ir.an tne legislation which Ih6 republican platform advocates and which Mr,
naming Bus approved.
Most Pacific coast papers favor free tolls regardless of the
treaty, these including such DaDers as the Oreo-mi Jnurnnl nnrl
the Oregonian. The Oregonian suggests that tolls be charged
American ships at the canal, so as to comply with the treaty but
u;ai snip owners oe reDatea irom the treasury the amount they
iiay. i ins is piainiy a suDtenuga and doubtless would be no
less objectionable to other Dowent'thah would a Rtrnicrht fro
tolls act. It is a principle of law that one may not do indirectly
vwiui, nicy may not uo directly.
The honorable course for the United States is to comply with
the treaty or else secure if possible Great Britain's consent to a
change. Such a two sided bargain cannot be altered at the wish
of but one party. An obligation is an obligation and should be
respected. The reputation of the United States as a nation that
keeps its faith with other powers is worth more than the gain
that could be derived from any special privileges at Panama.
If we go in for treaty breaking we may soon need an enlarged
navy that will cost us much more than it cost to build the canal.
