BY Cable 70 rhe rrthune

London. Aug. 1.-THE Daily Ex-
press says: If any responsible mind
in America sincerely believes that the
Panama Canal bill can be put right by
dropping the clause allowing free
passage to American ships engaged in
foreign trade and retaining the clause
allowing free passage 20 American
ships engaged in the coastirg trade
then that mind must be chudllke and
bland. This is no more than the
change Of a letter. The offence against
international morality and the menace
10 British rights secured by the Hay
Pauncefote treaty remain intact
Indeed, it is hard to avoid the sus-
picion that this quite indefensibIe
clause which was added after the Brit
ish protest was lodged was inserted in
order that by dropping il an air OF
sweet reasorableness might be given 20
the original vexation."
