Exemption Repeal Not Interpre.
tatiOn Of Hay-PauncefOte Pact.

Washington, April 14.-President
Wilson declared that the repeal of the
Panama tolls exemption could not be
regarded al an Interpretation of the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty. because 1t
would be a legislative act. He held
that no amendment setting forth the
rights OF the United States under the
treaty was necessary. in his opinion.
The president. with Secretary Bry-
an, considers that by repeating the ex.
emption the United States merely
showed a disinclination to raise the
question of discrimination. but did not
by it's act limit any further policy of
the government. Mr.. Wilson drew q
distinction between a legislative act
and an authoritative Interpretation OF
a treaty, the latter of which would
have to be formulated by the execu.
tive branch OF the government and
ratified by a two-thirds vote of the
senate.
Mr.. Wilson said the Norris amend.
ment, setting forth that the United
States. by repeating the exemption.
would not bS ~surrendering any OF its
rights, had not been seriously sug-
gested to him. and that he had not
given Ii serious consideration.
