JAPAN AND AMERICA.
THE YAP MANDATE. TOKIO, March 8. Uchida, answering an interpellation, admitted that the United States last year protested directly to Tokio against the Yap mandate. Japan’s reply fully explained her standpoint that, when the mandates were considered Dr. Wilson protested, but, when the final decision was reached. America made no reservations, and Japan could only adhere to her policy to the end. Uchida added that he considered the Yap mandate question definitely settled, but concerning a concession in the matter of Pacific cables to the United States he was unable to speak. (Received March 10, noon). TOKIO, March 9. Commenting, on President Harding’s inaugural address the paper Kokumin Shimbun says: America must be willing to make some sacrifice on behalf of the principle of disarmament. President Harding advocates otherwise. No Power in the world will accept his suggestions. - Newspapers generally agree concerning Yap, that Japan should insist on a mandate, but make a concession relative to cable communication.—A. and N.Z. C.A. .
