EQUALITY OF RACES.
JAPAN IN THE PACIFIC. By Telegraph.—Pres3 Assn.—Copyright. Paris, Jan. 5. The Japanese reservation in respect to mandates is regarded as a further effort to secure racial recognition. It is anticipated that when the full conference resumes the Japanese will seek to secure recognition of equality in mandates and probably take the view that the League of Nations should not discriminate between nationalities included in the league on a question of immigration to mandatory territories, and that legislation by any particular nation holding a mandate should not be allowed to inflict disabilities on other parties to the league in territories for which the league merely delegates its trusteeship. It is not considered likely that the British will accede to any departure from the methods adopted at the conference, when a highly placed member of the British delegation expressed the opinion that the laws of a country holding a mandate should be applicable to the territory. The Japanese, if unsuccessful now, will carry their demand to the first assembly of the League of Nations. —Ails.-N-Z. Cable Assn.
