PANAMA JOINS WITH J. $. ID
 PROTECT
 CANAL

PANAMA, April 7.-The president of the republic of Panama, Dr. Ra- mon Valdez, signed proclamation this afternoon committing Panama to the assistance of the United States in the defense of the canal.
 The presiden also cancelled the exequaters of all the German con suls in Panama.
 It is announced that German res idents in Panama will be interned if they give any evidence of being in- volved in plots. The proclamation was issued after President Valdez had sent a message to President Wilson endorsing the American action in de- claring a state of war with Germany. after the United States had given uniquivocal proofs of its love of peace and had made efforts to save western civilization from the horrors of war and had borne with patience a long series of provocations, as irritating as they have been unjustifiable."
