Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Panama Canal Tolls Controversy: Or a Statement of the Reasons for the Adoption and Maintenance of the Traditional American Policy in the Management of the Panama Canal This work was undertaken for the purpose of showing the meaning of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty; and, which the subject is uppermost in public attention, to give that meaning the widest possible publicity. We concluded, upon examination of the record after President Wilson´s brief message asking the Congress to repeal the tolls-exemption clause of the Panama Canal act, that many honest, sincere and patriotic American citizens had, as we ourselves had before examining the subject in a judicial frame of mind, assumed basic conditions contrary to the actual record, and that many had argued upon popular misconceptions of vital facts. We aimed to present a conclusive statement of facts demonstrating that the United States cannot grant free transportation through the Panama Canal to its coastwise and foreign shipping without violating the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. This work is primarily a source book. Chapter I contains the traditional documents and the sections of other treaties which assist one in ascertaining the real meaning of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. The letters of the negotiators of the treaty supplement these data. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
