Canal Treaty Chances and Fear of Amendment
The Panama Canal treaty faces a threat from calls to amend to grant the United States absolute control over the canal zone. Democrats fear delay if Morgan's amendment advances, while Republicans argue the current terms protect U.S. rights without violating Colombia’s sovereignty and reserve the same for future ratification. The Foreign Relations Committee has rejected amendments as jeopardizing the treaty, and Colombian acceptance is seen as likely if the pact remains as negotiated.
