ROOSEVELT TALKS
At DALLAS, TEXAS
Declares Failure to FOrtify
Panama Canal Would Be Act
of Criminal Folly.

DALLAS, Texas, March 13.-Failure
to fortify the Panama canal would be
an act of criminal folly, declared Theo-
dore Roosevelt tonight at the Dallas
chamber Of commerce. He said that
only two treaties relative TO the canal
existed, those with England and Pan
ANA, and hence any other nation would
be at liberty to destroy it in case of
war.
Colonel Roosevelt g utterance came
late tonight at the close of long din.
ner He was the last speaker on the
programme.
81 am particularly pleased,' he said,
that we have decided to fortify the
Panama canal because failure TO do so
would have been an act not merely Of
folly, but Of criminal folly on our part
and that not because / fear war, but
because ] want peace.
People ask me occasionally, do
YOU anticipate war, and if not, why do
you want to fortify the canal2' To
which L always answer, Il don Z antici-
pate that my house will burn down, but
| have it insured
And | want to call your attention
20 this fact Our treaties about the
Panama canal were made only with
England and Panama. In the treaty
with Panama we expressly reserve the
right to fortify the canal. The treaty
with England was made while 1 was
president
''I declined to submit it to the SEN
ate until ] had seen the written state
ments from tine British minister of for
eign affairs and the British ambassador
that recognized our rights to fortify
the canal.
EAnd now let me point ont this fact
No other nation in the world has any
treaty with us or is under any treaty
obligations OF under any obligations of
any kind as regards the neutrality of
/ the canal, so that if we ever unfortu.
nately become entanrled in war with
any nation whatsoever aside from
Great Britain or Panama, that nation
would have the absolute right, legal
and morally, to seize the Panama canal
'No other nation is under any OBJ
legation at all to respect the neutrality
of that canal.
"We have covenanted to make the
neutrality respected so that any nation
would be obliged to respect it; but we
have agreed that we will make it re
spected. -
