President Roosevelt urges Panama canal treaty and reform plan
Roosevelt's message to the Fifty-Eighth Congress details creation of a Department of Commerce and Labor, anti-trust enforcement expansion, and measures to curb public land frauds and postal crimes. It champions the Isthmian canal route via Panama, critiques Colombia, and explains the new Panama treaty granting U.S. control and transit rights, with peace through arbitration and robust national finance notes.
