The United States Senate is in tradi-
ton and practice averse to treaties.
Many people think much more so than is
necessary About year ago the gov
ernment of Newfoundland asked the
United States to reciprocate for the val
liable privilege of license to procure bait
In colonial waters, and recognizing the
Justice of the appeal, Secretary Hay ne
gotiated a treaty with Premier Bond,
whereby the Observation-Disclosures were to
be given free entry for their fish at
United States ports and certain other
privileges in return for the fishing rights.
The action of the Senate at the last seg-
sion in amending this treaty so as to
render il yaluless to the Newfoundland
ers and, consequently, procuring its fai
ure, is the reason for the revocation of
the fishing rights and something in the
nature of a retaliatory tariff. Newfound-
landers make no disguise of the fact that
this move is because the American Sen
ate buried the Bond-Hay treaty. They
say that they can make the crusade
against Gloucester as effective as against
st. Pierre. Indications are that this
retaIiatory process will work hardship
upon the fishermen OF Gloucester, Mass,
Portland, Maine and some other ports
of New England. A hardship that it is
claimed might have been avoided to the
advantage OF all concerned.
