Canal Zone treaty turmoil deepens after House vote
The House voted 203 to 19 to block surrender of US control over the Canal Zone as demonstrations rocked the U S embassy in Panama. President Ford faces Colombian President Lopez Michelsen during a two day visit with Panama pressing for a new treaty and greater Panamanian authority. The Senate stance appears more favorable to a new treaty structure granting Panama increased role in defense and administration, while the State Department warns against secrecy leaks in negotiations.
