lON CONQUESTS.
(Received February 1, 9 a.m.)
LONDON, 30th January.
The Morning Post's special correspondent in Paris statee that the Imperial War Cabinet met Mr. Lloyd George and Colonel House (U.S.A.), to discuss ihe mandatory proposal. Mr. Hughes, Mr. Massey, and General Botha put forward the case for the Dominions. Efforts are being made to reach a s compromise. One suggestion ,is that a distinction should be drawn 'between, territories captured by British and those taken by the Dominion troops; but this would hand over Mesopotamia and East Africa to the League of Nations, and there is no evidence that it would prove acceptable to America.
