Excerpt from Panama Canal Treaty (Disposition of United States Territory), Vol. 1: 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 notice, at 8:10 a.m., in room 6202, Dirksen Senate Office Building. Senator James B. Allen (Chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Also present: Senators Scott and Hatch. Staff present: Quentin Crommelin, Jr., chief counsel and staff director; James McClellan, professional staff (minority); Paul Guller, editorial director; and Melinda Campbell, chief clerk. Opening Statement Of Senator Allen Senator Allen. The subcommittee will please come to order. The Subcommittee on Separation of Powers of the Senate Committee on the Judicial is convened today to investigate certain constitutional issues bearing on the Panama Canal negotiations. The subcommittee has jurisdiction over matters relating to the separation of power between the three branches of the Federal Government and the division of power between the Federal Government and States. In this instance, the subcommittee hopes to examine and will seek to determine the proper role of the Congress and of the executive branch in negotiating a treaty with the Republic of Panama for the transfer of certain U. S. territory and property in the Isthmus of Panama. Inasmuch as section. 3, article IV of the Constitution provides that Congress, that is, both houses of Congress, shall have power "to dispose of and make all needful rules and regulations respecting the territory or other property belonging to the United States," the subcommittee is concerned that serious constitutional issues involving the doctrine of separation of powers are raised by the continued secret negotiations of the executive branch for the disposition of U. S. territory and property in the Canal Zone. While obviously the Executive has the power to negotiate for the acquisition of territory and property by treaty ratified by the Senate, many serious scholars of the Constitution are of the view that territory or property of the United States may be disposed of only by Congress itself and not simply by the Executive through the treaty ratification process.
