It can only be satisfactorily solved by personal contact and by the direct exchange of opinion. Not only do such direct negotiations, which correspond to the true spirit of the league of nations, effect an increase of freedom, flexibility and speed, but they create a spirit of mutual good will # and co-operation among the people meeting around the same table.” After pointing out that the council is without the same liberty of action regarding the mandates for the Pacific ' as in the case of the other types, the note continues: “The main American objection in this case, it is understood from your excellency's note, is to the effect that the Isiand of Yap was included by the council in the mandate given Japan, whereas your excellency states that the Unifed States has on several occasions refused to agree to the al- . location of this island to any one « Blate. i “The council of the league of na- tions would remind your excellency that the ailocation of all mandated territories is a function of the supreme council and not of the council of the league. “The league is concerned mot with the allocation but with ‘the adminis- tration of these territories. + “Having been notified in the name .

Consequently, if a misunderstanding exists as to the al- lgcation of the Island of Yap, that nusunderstanding would seem to be beyween the United States and the principal allied powers rather than between the United States and the leagpe. o “fawever, in view of the American | contemtion, the council of the league | has hastened to forward the Ameri- | ~an note to the governments of “rance, Great Britain, Italy and| , _Aapan. g 2 “The amouncil hopes these explana- tious wi¥l prove satisfactory o the United $gates government and that reciprocal good will find a solution in harmony Wwith the generous spirit which inspired the principle of man-| dates. == i Including Miniature il Lamps for Decoration LANSBURGH & BROTHER 420-30 SEVENTH STREET.
