National sentiment. however. is touched
more deeply by the occasional suggestion
that the United States wants the Gala
pages Islands. Tho best Information is
that the United States does not want
them, because the navy takes the view
that since VIC acquired control of Pana-
ma bay the United States does not need
them. At times American Secretaries of
state. including Mr. Blaine and possibly
Mr.. Knox. have thought that if Ecuador
wanted to lease the islands the United
states would do well to acquire them. in
order to avoid any possible complication.
In Ecuador there frequently have been
public men, including presidents who
wanted to lease the Galapagos, for under
the constitution of Ecuador they cannot
be sold outright because that would be
alienation of national territory Once the
proposition was made to dispose of them
to France, but it did not find favor in
Ecuador
One Ecuadorian president had a scheme
of internationalizing the islands, or rath-
or of Notwithstanding them. His view
was that they might be considered as be-
longing to all America, and he was there
fore ready TO have the United States ac-
quire one group of them Ecuador keep
one group and Peru and Chile each to &C
qure group. The plan never got along
