ments that our country had with Co
lomba, the United States claimed
the right to protect the Panama rail-
road and prevent any interference
with the operation OF trains on that
railroad The Colombian Govern
ment has always claimed that the
action Of the American troops inter-
fered with the Colombian troops in
suppressing the Panamanian Revolu-
tion. However, the Panama Aeyolu-
tionlsts quickly esta blished their own

and, as a result of agreements en-
tered into by the United States and

controversy arose coiombia's conten-
tion that she should receive sufficient
funds TO coiTpensate her for public
debts contracted in the interest Of
the people OF Panama before the
Panamanians started their revolution
and broke away from Colombia.
Uncle sam Can Afford TO BE Generous
There is no doubt but that the
passage of this treaty by the Senate
will do great deal TO convince not
only Colombia but all the other
Southern and Central American ma
tions that the United States has no
desire TO take an unfair advantage
OF any of them and that our coun-
try prefers TO give Colombia $25,-

lombians feel that the United States
was even indirectly responsible for
bringing about a condition that. re-
suited in Colombia being compelled
to assume debts which were con-
traeted in the interests Of the people
of Panama.
Uncle Sam is a big, strong fell
low, and very wealthy compared
with his smaller neighbors in South
and Central America. 1t Is much bet
ter that he should be generous than
that the smaller nations should labor
under the impression, however un-
justified that he took advantage of
any Of his smaller neighbors TO their
disadvantage"
