HE WOULD. GIVE
CANADA A PORT
Congressman Would Trade Part of
Alaska to England to Rescind
the Canal Treaty
WASHINGTON, May 2.—Represen
tative Smith late yesterday afternoon
introduced a measure in congress
which he believes, if passed, will
solve the Panama Canal tolls con
troversy and leave the United States
free to regulate the canal tolls as
she sees fit. His measure provides for
giving a port in Alaska to Canada in
return lor England’s consenting to
repeal the Hay-Pauncefote treaty.
In speaking of his measure Con
gressman Smith declared that he
coincided with President .Wilson that
the United States was in honor
bound to observe international treat
ies to the letter. He believed that
England would gladly welcome the op
portunity to secrue an outlet for Can
ada’s great northern territory to the
sea.
The canal has cost hundreds of
millions of dollars and if the tolls'
act was repealed the control of the
canal as a defense in times of war
would practically pass out of the
hands of the nation which had built
it. He believed that the nation could
better afford to trade an Alaskan port
to Canada than ruin the business in
terests of the states bordering on the
Pacific ocean.
