Most of the session will be devoted to broiling the Yanquis. Panama, for instance, will presumably air its long standing demand for a new and more equitable Canal Zone treaty from the U.S. Last month, Panama's U.N. Ambassador Aquilino Boyd labeled the zone "a colonialist enclave," and charged that the U.S. had made it a "hotbed of international tension." Other Latin American countries are expected to press for international acceptance of a 200-mile offshore limit for a coastal nation's fishing rights- a move hotly opposed by the U.S. Peru, Ecuador, Chile and Colombia will undoubtedly...

Other guardsmen returned the fire, dropping two of the bearded strangers as the other five fled in the darkness. In the days that followed, all of the intruders were killed or captured. One of those who lay dead was Poet Javier Heraud Perez...
...played, the Panamanian and U.S. flags rose last week for the first time, side by side, on newly set, identical poles over a Canal Zone plaza. Thus fulfilled was President Eisenhower's order to give evidence of Panama's "titular sovereignty" over the zone. Nationalist Rabble-Rouser Aquilino Boyd, who led last November's anti-American riots, expressed "jubilation...
