U3, RIGHTS IN PACIFIC ARGUED (Continued from Page 1.) Staics. It is manifest that the League of Nations was without any authority to bind the United States and that the confirmation of the man- date in question and the definition of its) terms ‘by the Council | of the League of Nations in. December, 1920, cannot be regarded as having efficacy with respect to the United States.” ‘The attitude of former President Wilson upon the disposition of Yap was set forth in a statement which he miade to the state department on March 3, 1921. The former president Was quoted as saying that his first in-| formation of a contention that tho| “so-called decision of. May 7, 1919,” by the council of four; assigning Yap to Japan was given ‘to him by Mr. Norman Davis. Mr. Wilson: then said that he informed Mr. Davis he had never consented to such an assign- ment. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS NOT FINAL, CLAIM. : Mr. Wilson said that on several oc- casions he had made specific reserva- tions regarding the Island.of Yap and had taken the position’ /he' it should not be assigned‘ under any mandate to any one power, but should be in- ternationalized for cable purposes. Secretary Hughes insisted in his note that any omission to make pro- test against the assignment of Yap to Japan could not operate as a ces- sion of its rights since the proceed- ings of the Supreme Council did not and could not have finality. “As no treaty has ever been con- cluded with the United States,” Sec- retary Hughes wrote, ‘relating to the Island of Sap and as no one has ever been authorized to cede or surrender the right or interest. of the United States in the island, this government must jnsist that it has not lost its right or interest as it existed prior to any actibn of the Supreme Council or the League of Nations and cannot rec- ognize the allocation of the island or the validity of the mandate to Japan.” “This government,” the note. con- cluded, “‘as has been clearly stated in previous communications, seeks no ex- elusive interest in the Island of Yap and has no desire to secure any privi- leges without having similar privi- leges accorded to other powers, includ- ing, of course, Japan, and relying upon the sense of justice of the government of Japan and of the governments of the other allied and associated powers, this government looks. with confidence to a disposition of the matter whereby the just interests of all may be prop- erly conserved.” The copy of the note sent to Japan wais not made public. It is said, how- ever, to be very similar to those to Great Britain, France and Italy, ex- cept that it contained some additional paragraphs referring to previous cor- respondence between the two govern- ments reiating to Yap.

For your new home or spring alterations, see our mandates have been sext by! the American government to @ governments of Japan, Great Britain, Frazwe and Italy, ‘The notes are understood to be very similar, but the occasion for prepar- ing them is said to be the receipt of Japan’s reply to the original, Ameri- can note protesting against the Japan- ese mandate over the former German isiands in the Pacific north of the equator. State department officials refused to discuss the documents, but it was learned that they were broad enough in terms to cover all-American rights growing out of the world war. ‘The notes form a part of the series which the United States insisted upon its full rights as one of the allied and associated powers, and also the right to pass finally upon all mandates be- fore their adoption. Mr. Colby's notes were addressed to the principal allied powers and sub- sequently a copy of them with an ap- pendix dealing specifically with the Japanese control in the Island of Yap in the Pacific Ocean was sent to the League of Nations*council at Geneva. The council in turn” trans- mited the document to the allied goy-} ernments with the explanation that the mandate for the Island of Yap had been granted by the Supreme Council. “Pertinax,’ political editor of the Echo De Paris, who appears to have access to the note, declares he consid- ers it means that America declines to recognize any decision of the allies in the treaty of Versailles or taken by the Supreme Council or by the League]. of Nations. He asserts that this is a grave attitude on ‘the part of the United States. It was learned in official circles to- day that the communication bears principally upon the ‘action of the council of the League of Nations last December in approving the mandates passed upon at that’ meeting, includ- ing the Japanese mandate over the north Pacific islands, taking in the island of Yap, but that it also outlines the policy of the new administration regarding questions arising from the war, and declares the approval of the United States to be necessary for a final settlement. A disposition to rec- ognize the justice of the American claim was indicated in official quar- ters, although with the reservation that it was ‘scarcely possible to give the Cnited States the right of veto in the settlement of questions which nec- essarily were discussed in the absence of representatives of the American government. ‘The reply. probably will express the intetise satisfaction of the allies if the United States the right of veto in sume collaboration with them in the settlement of war questions.

True ‘enough, Dr. Jeffrey tech- nically violated a Wyoming la but let us see what kind of a law it is, It is. stated upon good author- ity that the law he violated was sponsored and put through at the instance of the Wyoming Medical association for no other reason than to crush out all other, forms of healing human ills except ma- teria medica, The statute was skillfully worded so that the prac- tice of any manner of healing should be construed as medical practice. In short, anyone who would practice avy kind of healing in the state of Wyoming must se- cure a license from the state medical board and receive its sanc- tion. Failure to do so constitutes a violation of the law and incurs a penalty. By what authority does the Wyo- ming Medical association seek ar- bitrarily to say that drugs are the only LAWFUL means by which a person can be cured of their ills in the state of Wyoming? By what authority does it assert that allo- pathic physicians only have the right to minister to the sick and afflicted? By what authority does it assume that chiropractors, osteo- paths or Christian Science practi- tioners have no right to minister to suffering humanity? The root of the trouble goes far deeper than that. In fact, the W. M. A. knows that these people have the RIGHT to practice their professions, but as long as the W. M, A. can put obstacles in their way, by getting absurd and brazen- ly unfair taws enacted and get them to abandon their professions and leave the field of healing sole- ly to the medical profession. Under Wyoming law, if the Christ should again come to earth and heal the sick and afflicted as He did on the shores of Gallilee, he would be thrown in jail as a quack and an impostor. And to be consistent the Wyoming Med- {cal association would have to see that he was placed there. Christ never referred to his work of heal- ing as miracies, He told his fol- lowers that they who believed in Him would do greater works than He had done. Yet did Christ ever write a prescription for drugs or resort at any time to materia medica to affect a cure for physical ills? He cured the people “of all manner of diseases,” restoring the halt, the maimed and the blind to perfect health, and delegated the same power of healing to those who should believe in Him and fol- low in His footsteps. Shall the Wyoming Medical as- sociation then, say that only mem- bers of the medical profession shall minister to suffering humanity? Such an assertion is an insult to the intelligence of any thinking person and the passage of such a law in Wyoming should be a warn- ing to the people of every state in the union to watch more closely the laws that are proposed for passage by the legislature.
