In Half Of Oceans Sunkist
PANAMA CITY, Sept. 27, (Reuter); The Pan-American Conference is discussing the question of how far the terri- torial waters of the American continents shall extend.
The Cuban delegate proposed that they should be extended in The Atlantio to half way between America and Africa, and in the Pacific to half way between Ameri- ca and Asin.
All belligerent acts in these areas
should be declared unlawful and a threat to American security.
This was the only formal sugges- tion that has yet been put forward, but another possibility being canvass- ed is the extension of American waters from 50 to 1,000 miles.
This would Include several Bal- tish and French inlanda.
Neutral Patrols?
U. S.
Mr. Sumner Welles, the Under-Secretary of State, told the Conference that the American na- tions chuuld patrol the arcas decided upon and that belligerent submarines la ese arens or calling at American ports should be interned.
