mo Canal Toll Idea, Bat Make
Ilatos for Foreign Cargoes la For
eign Trade lw to Get Canal Tolls
WASHINGTON. Fob. S3. J. N.
Teal, tho Portland economist, Is here
calling on many senators relative to
Panama canal tolls. He thinks the
Intcrmountaln rate cases may be ar
gued Monday.
cltgardlng the report ot Professor
Johnson on canal tolls, Mr. Teal say:
"Professor Johnson ha flnsll)
mads hi recommendation on Pan
ama toll. Ho treats tt aa a- purely
commercial proposition. HI view
are ot decided Interest to the coast.
"On coast to coast traffic It
seems to bo hi view that the highest
rates can prevail, while on European
traffic now using the Suex canal com
petition rates will have to be made,
t Is not Improbable that this will be
the principal adopted, unless those
Itncrested are more active. In other
words, the charge on 'all trafflc will
bear on our own tonnage, but we
must be sure to csake It low enough
on the tonnage of forelgu nations In
the foreign trade so we will get their
traffic through the Panama canal.
'The collection of tolls seems of
vastly more Importance than the de
veloping of our own commerce. Just
how It will all wind up Is hard to
say, but It Is altogether possible that
tho American merchant marine will
get but little comfort out of 11 and
that the American commerce will pay
tho high rates."
