worth less than $1,000. 900.
The land deals at Panama have been
handled through a joint land commits
sion, comprising two representatives
of the United States, and two repre-
sentatives Of the Panama republic.
Under the treaty between the United
States and Panama which ceded the
canal zone to the United States, this
joint land commission has had eaclu-

of private persons. whose property
has been taken over in connection with
the building Of the canal
Gen. Goethals told the committee
that a provision in the treaty prescrtb-
ing that lands should be paid for on
the basis of their valuation when the
treaty was consummated. had been
totally disregarded and that the Joint
land commission had awarded vast
sums for land which a few years ago
was worth practically nothing.
Gen Goethals demanded legislation
which would terminate the activities
of the Joint Land Committee and
which would prevent it from paying
enormously increased values for land
or improvements.
