MANDATED ISLANDS
WILL NOT BE GIVEN IT BY JAPAN. Received Dec. 5. 11.30 p.m. TOKIO, Dec. 4. Admiral Ryozo Nakamura, a retired member of the Supreme War Council, after touring the mandated islands, said the Japanese residents outnumber the total natives by 10,000. Moreover, the Japanese language is supplanting the native, which will soon vanish. Thus any question as who is the owner is settling itself. Admiral Nakamura confirms that Japan has not the slightest intention of giving up the islands to Germany or any one else.
