MANDATED ISLANDS
NO SURRENDER TO ANYONE
NATIVES OUTNUMBERED BY
JAPANESE
TOKIO, December 4,
Admiral Ryozo Nakamura, a retired member of the Supreme War Council, after touring the mandated islands, said that the Japanese residents outnumbered the total of native by 10,000. Moreover, the Japanese language was supplanting the native, which would soon vanish. Thus any question as to who was the owner of the islands was settling itself.
Admiral Nakamura said that Japan had not the slightest intention of giving up the islands to Germany or anyone else.
