The Fisheries Negotiations Historical Review by Putnam

William L. Putnam, detailing the 1818 convention, 1836 Nova Scotia acts, and long disputes between the United States and Great Britain over fishing rights. The piece traces delimitation, headland theory versus bay lines, and 1871 Washington arbitration, arguing the new treaty advances practical limits, reduces costly seizures, and benefits U S and Canadian fisheries amid decades of contention.

Treaty's scope and fishing rights debated in Putnam's explana tion

William L. Putnam defends the newly negotiated treaty noting that the protocol is separate from the treaty and not to be construed as acceptance. He argues the fifteenth article grants substantial privileges for U S vessels, while preserving rights to future changes, and criticizes opposition claims about tonnage dues and fishing limits. He reviews 1818 and 1871 provisions, the ten mile bay delimitation, and historical disputes with Canada.
