U. s. OFFICIALLY NOTIFIED
 DEMANDS TO BE OBEYED

Panama, August 2J.--The Pana ma government has notified the state de- partment in Washington that Panama Twill not resist by force the demands of the United States. that Costa Rica will be permitted to occupy tho dis puted territory in the Coto area" President Porras of Panama made this statement to the Associated Press to- day.
 The same would not have been the case in connection with a demand or ultimatum from Costa Rica alone, which would have been rejected by the Panaman people by force of arms, the message to tho American gov ernment said.
 The Panaman government" Pres- deni Porras continued, before talk ing definite decisions as to the at titude 1t should assume and with re- gard to. the terms in which the last note from the United States must be answered, believes the time opportune to make clear certain points. In this connection it sent cable dispatch to Washington Saturday afternoon addressed to Narciso Garay (the Panaman foreign minister, who is visiting the American capitaD, which constitutes a decisive declaration of what the chief executive of Panama believed to be his duty"
 A paraphrase of this dispatch fol- lows: @@
 Summary of Dispatch
 "The Panaman government is under the impression that the last note from the state department Is couched in such terms that 1t permits of the interpretation that the United States | is standing aloof from the conflict between Panama and Costa Rica, but that 1t will permit the resumption of ! hostilities Immediately 1t is intimated 10 us that Costa Rica will proceed 1 to destroy by force the status which 1 has existed Tor seven years since the Porras-Anderson agreement.
 This government states that while Panama will not resist by force the c demands of the United States, the case | is not the same as if there had been demand or ultimatum from Costa Rica, which would be rejected by the I Panaman people who would use force | against, and for which purpose Panama immediately would begin | preparations.
 | Panama wishes to reach an under standing as regards this point before answering the last note from the 1 United States to the end that she may be able to determine precisely if any new armed conflict with Costa Rica threatens, or if this Is to be the end of an incident with the United States while it is much to be regretted IS only of diplomatic character. This means that Panama desires to know whether the United States intends not to permit Panama to use force against the announced intention of occupa- l tion by Costa Rica"
 | In concluding his talk with the correspondent, President Porras said:
 From the cable dispatches of the Associated Press published this morn ing by the Star Herald it is deduced that the American government VIII not permit Panama to make mani festation of force in the Colo region and that If it is made American marines would be landed
