NO VIOLATION OF MANDATES’ RIGHTS
GERMAN FEARS ALLAYED By Cable.—Press Association. — Copyright. Reed. 9.5 a.m. LONDON, Friday. Dr. Heinrich Schnee, formerly Governor of German East Africa, and also the Foreign Minister, Herr Stresemann, have taken too much for granted in their allusions to Tanganyika. The official attitude is first that Britain has in nowise suggested any East African scheme that would involve the violation of rights under which mandates are held. Secondly, if Dr. Schnee had read the terms of Sir Hilton Young’s South African Commission he would have found that the Commission was merely concerned with similar domestic supervision within the mandated territories and adjacent colonies. There was no suggestion of the British introducing sovereignty into the mandates. The Mandates Commission has the full right to question whatever happens within the mandates, and likewise any action contemplated therein. The British attitude is definitely that it does not propose any alteration of the mandate system, therefore, there is nothing to cause the German Government apprehension.—A. and N.Z.-Sun.
