PANAMA REFUSES THE TERMS
President Boras Expresses His coUn-
try's Attitude on Note of Secre
tary of State Hughes.

misunderstanding Hughes note ex-
pressing the desire of the United
States that Panama and Costa Rica
cease warning over the disputed strip
of territory and settle their quarrel
by calm adjudication, is ''unaccept-
able" to President Porras.
The note, a duplicate Of which was
sent to Costa Rica, has arrived here.
Immediately after its delivery to the
president, Porras issued the state
ment that he could not accept its
terms, because the United States
would require adherence to the award
made by Chief Justice White, which
Panama has never accepted
President Porras is willing to sub
nit the dispute between his country
and Costa Rica to commission of A
B. c. jurists; to the League of Ma
tons; to a commission of professors
of international law in American uni
yersities, or to a commission of law
professors of a Pan-American charac-
ter. In fact, he states a willingness
to submit the matter to the United
States government for settlement
without firing a shot.
However, all this is on condition
that the Costa Ricans withdraw their
troops from Almirante and back
across the river Sixaola and refrain
from attacking Coto. For, the presi-
dent states, unless the invaders do
withdraw at once the Panamanians
will attack as soon as they are sure
of victory and feel sure that they can
push the Costa Ricans back over the
frontier
AS the president states the stu
alton, the Costa Ricans crossed the
international bridge, compelling thirty
Palamanian policemen to retire Be
ing one thousand strong, the Costa
Ricans advanced without encounter
ing resistance to Almirante, which
they are now fortifying President
POrras claims on behalf of Panama
that the district in dispute has been
part of this country since colonial
times.
Panama's attitude is defensive but
expectant of positive intervention by
the United States.
