STUDE GET INVOL ED 'NIAMA ISSUE This year, as the Panama Canal issue became paramount, students in the Social Studies classes spent two to three weeks studying it. These two weeks were spent reviewing old and new treaties, and discussing opinions. The unit was highlighted by a speech in the auditorium by Congressman Mickey Edwards. There was a time for the students to ask any question or to state an opinion. Following are some of the ideas offered by some of the students in one ofthe social studies classes. I donit think we should have to pay the Panamanians for taking back the canal. . . We paid for the canal with our money and we are still paying rent for the land surrounding the canal. The United States has also de- veloped the canal Zone as though it was a part of the United Statesf' Jenny Edwards HI feel like there would be certain benefits and losses by going either way on the Panama Canal, but personally, I feel like we should give it up because we are a very prosperous country and this is 'their only source of in- come, since Panama is a One-Product Country. Paulette Wackerly I agree that there is some work that needs to be done be done on the present Panama Canal Treaty, but I don,t think we should give it away, much less pay them to take itl Also if we give them the canal and the Panamains don't let us go through it, we would have a weak de- fense, and prices would go up on the cargo that goes through the canal. Even if we give the canal away, a section of the treaty states that Panama has to O.K. any other oceanic canal built in Latin America, and surely they won't because it would take away from their present businessf, Jeff Williams I believe if the U.S. decides to keep our word in the treaty, and to keep international conflicts down to a minimum, I feel that we should turn over the canal to the people of Panamaf' Dean Campbell Above right: Mickey Edwards speaks with student body.
