THE MANDATES

JAPANESE RESERVATION

ATTITUDE OF BRITISH DELE. GATION

(By Telegraph-Press Association-Copyright

Paris, January' 5. Tho Japanese ' reservation in respect to the mandates is regarded as a further effort to secure racial recognition. It is anticipated tJiat when the full Peace Conference resumes, the Japanese will seek to secure recognition of equality in tho mandates. They will probably take the view that tho League of Nations should not discriminate between the nationalities included in the League on a question of immigration to the mandatory territories, and that tho legislation of any particular nation holding a mandate should not 'be allowed to inflict disabilities on other parties to tho League in the territories in respect of which tire League merely delegates its trusteeship.

II; is not considered likely that the British will accede to any departure from methods adopted at tho Conference, when a highly placed member of the British delegation expressed the opinion that the laws of a country holding a mandate should apply to tho territory. The Japanese, if unsuccessful now, will carry the demand to the first Assembly of the Lcaguo of Nations.—Ans.-N.Z. Cable Assn.'

SENATE AND THE TREATY PRESIDENT WILSON RAISES NEW ISSUE. Washington, January 3. A new issue regarding the Peace Treaty is reported to have been raised by President Wilson. It is stated that ho violently objects to the proposed reservation dealing with tho voting power in the League of Nations, and declares that its adoption .would, disfranchise Canada, Australia, and the other Dominions, which will certainly protest; and whose protests the British Government would surely support—Reuter.

ANOTHER EFFORT AT COMPROMISE (Roc. January 7, 1.20 a.m.) New York, January 5. .The Washing-ion correspondent of tho "New York Times" says that it is stated that .Senator Underwood will request the Seriate to create an official conciliation committee to work out a Treaty compromise, in the event of the Republican mild resorvationisis not offering a. .basis of compromise. It, is understood that' the Democrats will unanimously support Senator Underwood—Aus.-N.Z.' Cable Assn. . •
