Panama Protest Over New Customs Port Sparks Canal Row
Panamanian minister Obaldia and secretary Arosamena protested at the State Department against the Isthmian Canal Commission’s plan to locate a new customs port near Panama City. Panamanian leaders warn the move could divert trade and erode customs revenues, worsening political tensions as the commission plans further legislation under the organic act after a Colon inspection. The dispute follows earlier fights over canal strip offices and alleged customs jurisdiction on outlying harbors. Acting Secretary Look treats the issue as a matter for the commission, not the State Department, awaiting the commission’s return to Washington.
