Ad- vocates point to this as indicating the steady progress which it has made during the two and one half years of its existence. The most important subject on the agenda of the council's 19th meeting is ratification of the A and B man- dates, which was delayed by Ameri- ca's claim to be consulted as to the disposal of mandates and that her in- terests as one of the allfed and asso- ciated powers be safeguarded in the mandatory areas, The American agreement with Jap- an regarding the island of Yap and the recent approval of the Palestine mandate which settjed the points to which the United States took excep- tion enable the present council meet- ing to proceed with the work of ap- proving of the mandate, Other sub- jects for the council's consideration will be the report on reduction of armaments, questions of reconstruc- tion, world health, refugees and var- ious political questions.
