The Times has always been i a,aunch believer in the United states attending to it's own internal anaits' ,rrespective of the views entertained |, foreign nations,
 Tn the case of the Panama canal tcu. controversy, however. it is IT, ,,,ned to believe that the position aF verge to free tolls assumed by Fresl- cent Wilson Is correct.
 There are various angles tO the SUD- itct and viewd from almost any ono of them the chief executive assumes n sound position when he opposes d's continuation in favor of American ship ping. ~
 Tn the first place. there Is little ,,o,,bt that free tolls would be ques- t.onable under the favored nation provisions of American treaties with the principal world government ana would inevitably lead to protests and, possibly. to ill-feelins.
 England Is undoubtedly the spokes- man for Europe in this matter ana should its protest be disresarded. other major governments might be expectch to interpose vigorous objections.
 Again, 90 long as American ships go through the canal under the same conditions as those of other nations. these latter have absolutely no reason whatever to protest.
 It Is within the range of possibilities. ht.wever, that discrimination would develop a condition where arbitration would he imperative to avert moT1 serious possibilities and such arbhra- ion might open the canal to the vet se,s of the entire world duty free.
 Far better than this that America" ships should pay duty. which Is. afte' all. only shifting American money from enc pocket to another. and thus com DO, all foreign vessels to contribute to the support of the great waterway
 The suggestion of the president is a most commendable attempt to soiS tn. problem. He contempiates doina that which has to he done in qu'e' and businesslike way. though a meth on that will assure steady revenues fo, the canal at the same time th'' the United States is not called upor to penaiize Itself undu'y.-Seatt'' Times.
