Hay-Fauncefote Treaty,
Involving Panama Canal

The Hay-Pauncefote treaty of 1901
was signed long before there was q
Panama canal In existence and did nor
give England free use of the Panama
canal. notes writer In the Detroit
News. 1t replaced the Clayton Bulwer
treaty of 1850 as an Anglo American
agreement OF policy concerning an
lsthman canal, then supposed to be
lived as across Nicaragua. Public feel
Ing for some years had been growing
sore over the Clayton-Buwer treaty's
restriction on the Independent action
OF the United States, aud there was
grave fear lest congress might abro-
gate that treaty by open violence, q
great blow to future amicable action.
President Mckinley in his annual
message for 1893 declared that the
canal had become a national necessity.
Negotiations were opened with Great
britain and draft treaty was sent
by the President to the senate In Feb
ruary, 1900, providing for the con-
struction OF canal, to be permanently
neutralized. Disputes in the senate
over the terms led to the formulation OF
new treaty, ratified as the Hay
Panncefote treaty in December. 1901.
Before the opening Of the Panama
canal in 1914 there was a controversy
with Great Britain regarding the pro-
vision Of the Panama Canal act OF
l9l2, exempting American vessels en-
gagged In coastwide trade from canal
tolls. This was regarded BY the Brit
ish rs violation Of the original treaty.
Eventually, after President Wilson had
sent congress message urging this.
action, this exemption Of American
slins from the canal tolls WAS repealed.

JOBS ALONE WILL CURE UNEMPLoY.
MENT RELIEF
CBy BRUCE CATTON)

Nothing in American life is quite so easy
to criticize as the administration of unen,-
ployment relief.
Here is a job which, even if it should be
done perfectly, would still be bad one
Relief is bad for those who receive it and
ultimately, almost ruinous for the nation
which has to pay for it. And since its adj
ministration needs a wisdom seldom found
on this imperfect earth, it is bound to ac-
cumulate a series of abuses as time goes
along.
We read, currently, that all federal
doles are to end by November 1, which
date people on relief will either be back at
work or supported by the states and cities
that President Roosevelt, doubling that
this can be done, has summoned his advis.
erS- to prepare estimates on the cost of re-
lief for next year; that people on relief
are getting so used to receiving something
for nothing that they often refuse to take
jobs that are offered; and that relief sys-
tematically undermines the morale of its
recipients, building up permanent pau,
per class which doesn't care much if il
never gets back to work.
The publication of all of these stories
within a few days of each other simply teS-
titles to the extreme difficulties that any
relief program must carry with it. And yet
while we admit that the problems of relief
are very great and pressing, it ought to be
pointed out that the relief question is only
a symptom and not disease.
The real trouble is not relief but the un-
employment which makes relief necessary
This truth is so obvious that it would bC
silly to state it, if it were not for the fact
that the relief problem has been dragging
on for so long that it actually has obscured
tfie'underlying cause.
The evils of relief may be ten times as
bad as the most pessimistic people say they
ares but the remedy for them is not to dis.
continue the relief program, but to stimu,
late employment so that a relief program is
no longer necessary.
That, in the last analysis, is the only so,
luton.
1t does no good at all to sit back and
moan about the evils of the dole. AS LONG
as widespread unemployment exists, the
dole must be continued, no matter how ex.
pensive it is, or how ruinous to its recipi
ents' morale.

There has been a movement to
make the NEG division strong
unit, co-ordinating consumer pro.
lection activities, and give its
chief a chance to speak up for con.
sumers in major New Deal coun-
ellis. This lost much of its strength
when Mrs. Mary Rumsey died.
The NEG unit collapsed when an
executive appropriation ran out:
Atty. Gen. Homer Cummings is
said to be trying to decide whether
it might be continued with NRA
or NEG funds, but he doesn't seem
to be working very hard at it.
ALL that is left is DR.. Calvin B.

the AAA's purge" of several Wig.

Perhaps because of the adverse
public reaction to the purge"
and Hoover's value as an adviser,
AAA chiefs have taken him into
their councils and listened to him
respectfully.
Standing out almost like q
sore thumb, Hoover, while
stunning publicity, has been
the AAA's voice of conscience.
Thanks to Hoover, the AAA
