TAILIEUCHUNG - THE PANAMA CANAL CONFLICT BETWEEN GREAT BRITAIN AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

To my great surprise, the publishers inform me that the first edition of my modest study on the Panama Canal conflict between Great Britain and the United States is already out of print and that a second edition is at once required. As this study had been written before the diplomatic correspondence in the matter was available, the idea is tempting now to re-write the essay taking into account the arguments proffered in Sir Edward Grey's despatch to the British Ambassador at Washington of November 14, 1912—see Parliamentary Paper Cd. 6451—and, in answer thereto, in Mr Knox's despatch to. | THE PANAMA CANAL CONFLICT BETWEEN GREAT BRITAIN AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA A STUDY BY L. OPPENHEIM M. A. LL. D. Whewell Professor of International Law in the University of Cambridge Honorary Member of the Royal Academy of Jurisprudence at Madrid Member of the Institute of International Law SECOND EDITION Cambridge at the University Press 1913 Cambridge PRINTED BY JOHN CLAY M. A. AT THE UNIVERSITY PRESS PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION To my great surprise the publishers inform me that the first edition of my modest study on the Panama Canal conflict between Great Britain and the United States is already out of print and that a second edition is at once required. As this study had been written before the diplomatic correspondence in the matter was available the idea is tempting now to re-write the essay taking into account the arguments proffered in Sir Edward Grey s despatch to the British Ambassador at Washington of November 14 1912 see Parliamentary Paper Cd. 6451 and in answer thereto in Mr Knox s despatch to the American Charge d Affaires in London of January 17 1913 see Parliamentary Paper Cd. 6585. But apart from the fact that the immediate need of a second edition does not permit me time to re-write the work it seemed advisable to reprint the study in its original form correcting only some misprints and leaving out the footnote on page 5. It had been written sine ira et studio and without further information than that which could be gathered from the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty the Hay-Pauncefote Treaty the Hay-Varilla Treaty the Panama Canal Act and the Memorandum which President Taft left when signing that Act. Hence the reader is presented with a study which is absolutely independent of the diplomatic correspondence and he can exercise his own judgment in comparing my arguments with those set forthpro et contra the British interpretation of the Hay-Pauncefote Treaty in the despatches of Sir Edward Grey and Mr Knox.
