Excerpt from Panama Canal Treaty (Disposition of United States Territory), Vol. 2: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Separation of Powers of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, Ninety-Fifth Congress, First Session The subcommittee met, pursuant to recess, at 8 a.m., in room 6202, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Senator James B. Allen (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Also present: Senators Hatch and Scott. Staff present: Quentin Crommelin, chief counsel and staff director; James McClellan, professional staff (minority); Paul Guller, editorial director; and Melinda Campbell, chief clerk. Opening Statement of Chairman Allen Senator Allen. The meeting will please come to order. The Subcommittee on Separation of Powers is convened this morning to continue the subcommittee´s investigation of the constitutional issues surrounding the negotiations of the executive branch with the Government of the Republic of Panama regarding the territory and property of the United States in the Panamanian Isthmus. The subcommittee is pleased to have for this mornings hearing a distinguished group of witnesses from Government, from the legal profession, from the academic community, and from organized labor - all of whom are in some way affected by or involved in the canal negotiations. I am certain that most of those present this morning are well aware of the central constitutional issue under investigation; however, perhaps it would be helpful for me to reiterate the propositions which are the focal point of this inquiry. Disposal of U.S. Territory Article IV, section 3 of the Constitution of the United States provides that Congress "Shall have power to dispose of and make all needed rules and regulations respecting the territory or other property belonging to the United States." Many scholars of the Constitution believe the power given to Congress in that clause is exclusive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
