LEAGUE OF NATIONS.
AMERICA’S RELATIONS. Frees Association—By Telegraph—Copyright PARIS, February 28. (Received March 1, at 11.50 p.m.) , The reply of the Council of the League of .Natipns to the United States regarding the, Mesopotamia and Yap mandates will come before President Wilson two days before Mr Harding comes into office. The contents of the Note are carefully guarded, but it is expected that America will he informed that the Mesopotamia mandate is not/yet before the league, and that concerning the Yap mandate the reply will be couched in the most friendly terms, pdfhting out that Japan’s mandate was approved two months ago, and calling attention to the difficulties of complying with the report of the United States. The tone of the Note will be such, however, as to imply an ‘invitation to the United States to continue the, discussion, which will involve the Harding Administration in a controversy with the league, European statesmen hoping that out of this may come a clearer understanding regarding America’s relations towards the league. — A. and N.Z. Cable.
