Canal Tolls Fight May Be Arbitrated
A Senate debate on canal tolls shifts toward arbitration as a means to settle the dispute with Great Britain. Senator O Gorman opposes arbitration, while Senators Sullivan Williams and Works back the plan. President Wilson had signaled openness to arbitration before the House passed repeal, with Norris introducing a resolution to submit the matter to an international tribunal. Republican Senators Hood Lodge and others support arbitration, arguing it could speed resolution, though opponents warn of delay and costs. The next action hinges on a two thirds Senate vote, with Democrats debating timing for Monday's repeal bill consideration.
