REFUSES TO
ANNUL TREATIES
PRESIDENT HAS MADE UP MINE
NOT TO CANCEL
TREATIES.
EFFECTS MARINE ACT
DOES NOT CONSIDER SECTION 81
GIVES CONGRESS cONSTI.
TUTIONAL POWERS.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, Sept. 25.-Formal an
~nOuncement has been made by thu
state department that President VIII
son had decided not to carry out thu
instruction from Congress to annu
existing treaties between the United
States and foreign countries by which
the United States is prevented from
granting special import tariffs ant
transportation rates on imports car
ried in American bottoms.
The statement given out by the
state department follows:
The Department Of State has been
informed by the President that he does
not deem the direction contained Ia
Section XXXIV, Of the sO-called mer-
chant marine act, an exercise of any
constitutional power possessed by the
Congress.
Under the provisions Of the section
referred to, the President was directed
within ninety days after the act be-
came law to notify the several gov
ernments with whom the United States
had entered into commercial treaties,
that this country elected to terminate
so much of said right of the United
States to impose discriminating Gus.
toms duties OF imports and discrlmi-
natOry tonnage dues, according as the
carrier vessels were domestic or for
eign, quite regardless of the fact that
these restrictions are mutual, operat.
ing equally upon the other which are
parties to the treaties, and quite re-
CARELESS also Of the further fact that
the treaties contain no provisions for
their termination in the manner con.
by Congress.
"The President, therefore, considers
it misleading to speak of the 'termina.
ton of the restrictive clauses of such
treaties. The action sought to be i'm.
posed upon the executive would amount
10 nothing less than the breach or vio-
alton Of said treaties, which are
in number and cover every
point Of contact and mutual depend
,nce which constitute the moderan re.
atoms between friendly states. Such
/ curse would be wholly %irreconcil.
lble with the historical respect which
he United States has show for its in.
engagements and would
alsify every profession of our belief
n the binding force and the reciprocal
obligation of treaties in general.
The merchant marine act was ae.
proved June G, in the final rush of the
essiOn's close, with no opportunity
o suggest, much less secure its re-
islOn in any particular. To have ve-
Oed the act would have sacrificed the
reat number Of sound and enlighten-
d provisions which it undoubtedly
Ontains.
Furthermore, the fact that one sec.
on of the law involves elements OF
legality rendering the section in
peratlve, need not affect the valid
and operation Of che act as a
,
The announcement, said the presi-
ent, had reached his decision before
le expiration IN Sept. 5 of the ninety
ay period in which the merchant ma
ne act directed that he take steps :
%abrogate the treaties. 1t also was
ate that the President had not con. 4,
llted any foreign governments re-
the matter.
