Hughes Sends Note to Panama.
Washington, Aug. 22.-The United
States has decided to authorize the
republic of Costa RIGA to occupy the
territory now held by Panama, but as
signed to the former by the White
Loubet boundary award.
Panama was so informed in a note
from Secretary Hughes under date of
August Is, the text of which was
made public by the State department.
Text of Note.
The text of the note:
"The government of the United
States has received the note adj
dressed by the government of Pan
anna on August to the American
minister in Panama, replying to the
communication handed by the minis
ter on August to the government OF
Panama by instructions of the gov.
eminent of the United States, in
which were transmitted two requests
of the government of Costa Rica re
lating to the boundary dispute be
Costa RIGA.
after the most careful considera
ton of the statements contained ir
the note of the government of Panama
above referred to, this government
has reached the conclusion that argu
ton have been fully answered in pre-
vious notes addressed by the govern
ment of the United States to the gov
eminent of Panama
1T is greatly regretted that it ha:
proved to be impossible for the gov
ernments of Panama and Costa Rics
to come TO a direct agreement for the
delimitatiOn of that portion of the
boundary between the two republics
laid down by the White award.
No Reason for Delay.
''In view of the fact that the gov
eminent of Panama appears unwilling
to Garry out this delimitatiOn in the
manner provided in the Porras-Ander
son convention. and inaSmuch as {
reasonable time, mentioned in thu
note Of this government dated May 2
1921, for the reaching of an agreement
as to the manner of carrying out thi:
delimitation, has already been afford
ed, there would seem to be no reason
why the government Of the United
States should, as the friendly media
tor between the two governments. o.
by virtue of its special relation to thu
government of Panama, feel com
PEELED to suggest to the government
of Costa Rica that 1t delay Longer
taking jurisdiction over the territor.
which is now occupied by Panama ant
which was adjudged to belong t.
Costa Rica by the terms of the Loube
award
1.-The government of the United
States is nav advised by the govern
ment of Costa RIGA that since it con
siders that the Porras-Anderson con
vention is in force, and since it be
lieves that there is no valid reason
for delaying its complete execution
any longer, it is ready to assume i'm
mediately the jurisdiction over thu
territory above referred to-
