State Dept Denies Secret Panama Pact
Washington AP report says a Latin American source claimed a 1962 U S Panama pact existed to renegotiate the canal treaty, but the State Department denied any secret agreement and said the memorandum cited described possible conditions for talks, not a binding accord. The department reiterated no treaty change was agreed in 1962 and that talks would be limited to potential revision discussions. Arturo Morgan Morales attributed a signed memorandum to Kennedy Chiari talks, but the department disputed that characterization.
