Washington. - President Taft has
signed the Panama canal bill. Fol
lowing this he sent to Congress a
memorandum suggesting the advisa-
bility of the passage of resolution
which would declare that this measure
was not considered by this govern
ment a violation of the treaty provis-
ions regarding the canal.
THE British protest is proposal to
read into the treaty n surrender by
the United States of its rights to reg
ulate its own commerce in its own
way and by its own methods" the
President holds. "a right which nei-
ther Great Britain herself nor any
other nation that may use the canal,
has surrendered. or proposes to sur
render"
In his memorandum the President
dissents from the view that permis-
sion to register foreign-built vessels
as vessels of the United States for for
eign trade and the admission without
duty of ship materials. will interfere
with the shipbuilding interests of the
United States. He approves the
amendment of the interstate commerce
act whereby railroad companies are
forbidden to own or control ships op-
Grated through the canal.
He also approves the provision
which prevents the owner of any
steamship who is guilty of violating
the antitrust law from using the canal.
