THE YAP CONTROVERSY.
JAPAN WILL COMPROMISE. , By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. New York, March 2. The Paris correspondent of the New York. Times interviewed Count Ishii, who stated that Japan is ready to compromise with the United States concerning Yap. Two points should be made respecting Yap. The proces verbal sent to Japan by the Supreme Council at the May, 1919, meeting, which the Japanese did not attend, did not mention President Wilson’s reservations. There was no fear expressed by the United States concerning the imperilling of cable communications when the Germans owned Yap. The United States’ Note therefore hurts Japanese feelings, since Japan does not desire to interfere with the cables and is willing to consider such methods of freely preserving such comniunicatioDfi while also preserving Japan’s rights under the mandate.—Aus.N.Z. Cable Assn.
