Treaty Critics Forecast Risks Over Canal Pact
Opponents argue 93 percent of Navy ships could pass the canal and that circumnavigation adds 8 000 miles and 25 to 30 days. Senator Thurmond cites 1975 canal traffic, with 14 000 ships, 8 000 US-bound, as evidence the canal remains vital. They warn Soviet or Cuban influence could rise in Panama if the treaty fails.
