The United States, however, on basis that she, as one of the allied and associated pow- was entitled to a voice in the distribution of the former German (lands in the Pacific, has protested ‘the granting of special rights in Yap _ to Japan. With respect to Shantung, no of- ficial stand has been taken. ‘The unbiased view, however, has ot een that any dispute over sover-| eignty in Shantung should be the “Matter of negotiation between China | and Japan. ‘There is indicated a considerable | ire in several quarters that th Yap and Shantung questions be liminated in advance of the Wash- wston conference. ‘That, it is recog- ' mized, would greatly ‘simplify ques. tions before the conference. This government will not, however, con “eede that the treaty of Versailles—in | the absence of any acquiesence by | ‘min courntry—could dispose of Yap.

The open’ door in China and China's territorial integrity are, of course, old questions. They are the in which the real statesmanship of the members of the conference pends whether China i# to become an independent nation, or whether may best be displayed. On them de the special interests which virtually render China impotent an@ helpleas ure to continue their hold.

In the matter ef communications, the whole question of a friendly, equitable relationship in the estab | Ushing and maintenance of wireless | and cabje stations will be developed. BELGIUM AND HOLLAND TO HAVE A VOICE Both Belgium and Holland, tn ad- dition to the six powers primarily involved In the conference, will be permitted to make representations in connection with the Far East questions. Belgium has extenstve interests in China, Belgian capital owning the Lung Hai and the Kow Ching rail ways and the great Kai Ping mines. Holland's whole life as a trading Ration depends upon her rich island posseasions in the Pacifio—the Duteh East Indies This comprises a huge territory with 59,000,000 population. Without these colonies and a free hand in developing their markets, Holland would be reduced to the status of a fifthrate nation. Important, but secondary to these key questions, are the attitude of Australia, Canada and New Zealand, and the new position in which the Philippines may be placed as a re sult of the conference.
