London, March 9.
The text of the mandate submitted by Japan to the League of Nations is published in New Yok, and confirms the reports that Japan stipulated that her nativuals should not be subjected to disecriminatory and disadvantageous treatment in other mandated territories.
Reuter's Washington correspondent understands this to apply particularly to the ex-German islands in the Pacific which have been mandated to Australia and New Zealand. It is understood that official circles in Washington have objections to this reservation of a similar character to the United States' objections against tl@ provisions in the British Mesopotamian mandate, whereby, it is alleged, Americans are excluded from trading there. The United States maintains that it never agreed to the conferment to Japan of the Yap mandate.—Reuter.
