ARBITRATE CANAL
TOLLS, SAYS TA
?
Declares He Would Be Ashar
To Be Unwilling to Sub

Hague.
ADDRESSES PEACE FOR
President S?ys Defeat
Treaties Was a "Body Blow
but He Still Cherishes the
Ideal?Henry Clews
Has Pension Plan.
Freaudefit Taft, In t speech he
the International Peace Forum, in
Waldorf-Astoria, yeattrday nftonv
came out frankly in favor of subi
ting tht Panama Canal dlapute
twecn Great Britain and the Fa
States to The Hague tribunal for
bitratlon. It was the Presidents 1
formal declaration on the que.?
since Great Rritnm illod her pro
?vifh the State- Department.
Henry Clews, the banker, was
first ereukrr. Ak a business man,
Bal 1. he felt that under the treatv ?
?."-at Britain the rnit--?d States ?
in the wrong, and would most hi
be defeated it the dltputt went to '
Hague, although he figured it that
eeaeturita shipping would bt ici
burscd for the loss of tolls by the 'it
subsidy" that would be given invo
Ing the antounl in dispute.
Mr. Clews had a tUggtatlon to in:
"-?lrding the penmnning of ox-Pr*
<1? nta, afhleh he submitted to "pul
spirited men" to consider. Mr. CM
thought a fund could be snb.-'crih
th*' tnttrttt on which would be su
ment to insure an Income? *>f nt le
il?.OOfi a year for each <>f the ex-Pre
dentt for life. He suggested that I
trustees ?.f the fund have the pot

universities exclusively for OUT ?
Presidents, they 1? ing required to g
periodical lectures to the s!u<li

Mr. Clews said that President Ta
in the simplicity of his life while
tht White Hous<\ had outdone ev
Thomas Jefferson In democracy a
kind attention to the plain people. .V
?lews said he thought the plain r>eo)
. cM fully to appreciate the fact.
Would Arbitrate with England.
My friend .Mr. Clews differs with i
ami with the administration in t
ronstrin turn of that treaty," the Pre:
rlent began. "That is all right. 1 suprx?
QUettlona before have arisen as to <>
. onstrudinn of contracts in which ho
? people have l.een on both siilr
N"\v that presents t" me a very slj
nifuant and useful example with r
BpOCt to arbitration. A good mat
people are saying, 'Don't arbitrate, it
.nose yoa are tjotBg to laaa This
anai. and while Kngland is mal
ing a point of it. Kngland would ni
fignt about it, and therefore why gic
up when you are not likely to get ?
arbitration that will bt satisfactory I
| ".i and your view of the construction
Now. that is just the time when I a:
in favor of arbitration. I am wiliui;
and, indeed, 1 would be BBhamed n<
to be willing, to arbitrate any questic
w th Great Britain in the constructio
of a treaty when we reach the a_UU
issue which there is between the tw
nations. There need not be any PUbll
doubt on that subject so far as th
administration Is concerned.
T am hopeful," the President ? oi
tinued. "that we may get it either t
settlement or to submission before th
administration In which I have th
honor to be a dissolving view sha
ceaee, but it may not be. because thes
international negotiations move ttOWl]
Rut I am glad to take this opport
nity to gay that if the time dors com
there will be no doubt about what
will do in respect to the submission ?j
the question as far as my power goe
to an Impartial tribunal for lit settle

in my ?oui after ! had visited almos

had made with Kngland and France, an?
