Fourth : That the alignment of political and eco- nomic forces in both Europe and America during the nineteenth century thus brought the United States and Great Britain into close alliance as against the rest of the world, so far at least as the Western Hemisphere was concerned, though constantly engaged in bickerings and disputes as between themselves. Fifth : That in view of their actual and potential pre-eminence as commercial and industrial nations, and from a desire to advance the cause of... civilisation on lines peculiarly adapted to the promotion of their own activi- ties and interests, combined with a sense of responsi- bility toward the world at large as joint guardians of the Western Hemisphere, the United States and Great Britain concluded, in 1850, the so-called Clayton-Bulwer treaty. Sixth : That this treaty distinctly provided for an unfortified strip of artificial neutral sea between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans to be open to the whole world, as well as to themselves, on absolutely equal terms, in times both of peace and war, the canal having been conceived exclusively as a peaceful com- mercial water-way to be created for the "benefit of man- kind", as was stated in so many words in Article VI of the treaty.
