ENGLAND FIGHTING CANAL
FA|RF0R SPITE, ANDREWS,
HOME FROM TOUR, says

That England apparently is doing
everything in her power to harm the
Panama Exposition and is using her
influence among the other nations of
Europe to prevent them from par
tlcipating in the big celebration next
year in San Francisco was the firm
opinion expressed Monday noon by
Walter P. Andrews on his return to
Atlanta from an extended trip abroad.
Mr.. Andrews was one of the mem
oers OF the commission appointed by
President Wilson to visit the Europe
an nations and obtain their at
tendance at the exposition The tour
was a remarkable success, but
through 1t all Mr. Andrews said that
the opposition of England and Ger
many was felt Mr. Andrews was
asked what generally was regarded
as the animus for Englands hos
tility.
England seems peeved at us for
some reason he replied. Exactly
the cause Of this feeling might be
difficult to determine. From what !
" as dDAS ~ lGdA II, lAON eNbIt IL was
the fact that the United States has
proposed to exercise its rights and
exempt It's own domestic shipping
from tolls in passage through the
Panama. Canal
Knocking" Fair for Spite.
Great Britain appears to be
knocking the exposition as an act
of reprisal Through ali of our work
we encountered this sinister influ-
enee. In many quarters we heard
talk of a compact between England
and Germany to ignore the eXposi-
ton. Whether there exists such a
pact, it is certain that these two coun-
tries are doing their utmost to harm
the project,
AN undercurrent of ill-feeling to-
ward the exposition exists in Eng
land The general belief is that it
has been aroused because Uncle sam
did not at once submit to England s
demand that American shipping in
TIE domestic service be penalized by
tolls along with foreign shipping.
II am happy to say, however, that
this influence was not strong enough
TO prevent the success of the com
mission. The results were better
than we had anticipated. We were
met on every hand by inquiries about
England's stand. Officials Of other
nations would ask us why England
was not going to be represented, and
It was necessary for us to enter into
long explanations
Four Nations Plan Exhibits.
France. Greece, Turkey and Bull
garia gave us straight-out promises
that they would be represented and
would build pavilions The pavilions
were a feature for which we were
especially eager We desired that ey-

should be typically representative.
"Roumania, Servia Portugal and
Spain before our visit had declined to
participate in the exposition, but at
our request reopened consideration of
the matter. As result Roumania.
Portugal and Spain have changed
their decisions and probably all will
