PARIS COUNCIL
A DROP INTO POLITICS
RIVAL PUBLIC OPINIONS
(OMTBD PRESS ASSOCIATION.—COPIRIGHT.)
(AUSTRALIAN-NEW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.)
(Received January 31, 1 p.m.)
PARIS, 29th January.
At times the Council has frankly become a gathering of politicians, anxious to find means for pleasing and placating their electoral masters. President Wilson insists that public opinion in America will bitterly resent anything savouring of land-grabbing. Mr. Lloyd George equally asserts that British opinion demands that the wishes of the Dominions shall be met. The British Cabinet's proposal means that the Dominions shall have a full trusteeship over the apportioned territories. There is no question but New Zealand will get at least a trusteeship over Samoa, and Australia one over New Guinea and the Bismarck Archipelago.
