Decision of this administration. to take no further action was made known today at the state department after receipt of the replies from the council and Great Britain to the American notes dealing with the mandates for the Pacific island of Yap, held by Japan, and for Mesopota~ mia, to be awarded to Gteat Britain. “Officials said there was insufficicnt time for them to prepare answers before lne cnange of administrations Friday. They 120 indicated that it might be regarded ax presumptuous if they acted. “We have taken the steps to protect the position of the United States govern- ment,” said Under-Secretary Davis, "aad the matter is now in position to be deait With by (hb incoming administration in which manner as it muy see fit.” The text of the note from the league council was made public. but that of the British note was withheld. The question of its publication, officials said, would be left to the new administfation. The text of the council's note as made public did not differ in any essentlal from that given out at Paris and contained in press despalicies from the French capital. Comnient on the note was withheid by officials as decision on’ it will be lefi for the officers of the new administration.
