es to the British government. Similar
notes were nddressed to Japan, France
and Italy. The note to Japan contain
ed additional paragraphs referring to
previous correspondence between the
two. governments and was not made
public.
Secretary Hughes, at the outset, re
minds the four powers that the Unit
ed States participated in the victorv
over Germany and therefore, .shares
in all the rights sained by the allies.
"It will not be questioned," Hughes
asserts, "that the right to dispose of
the overseas possessions of Germany
was acquired only through the victory5
of tho allied and associated powers
and It Is also believed that there is
ho disposition on the part of the Brit
ish government to deny the participa
tion of the United States in that vic
ory. It would seem to follow necessar
ily that the right accruing to the al
lied and associated powers through
the common victory is shared by the
United States and that there could
be no valid or effective disposition of
the overseas possessions of Germany
without the assent of the United
States."
The note points out that as the
United St'ates has never vested either
the supreme council or tho league of
nations with any authority to bind
this government, "there hns been no
opportunity for any decision which
could be deemed to affect the rights
of the United States." American
rights, the note asserts, could not be
ceded or surrendered to Japan, or any
other nation, except by treaty "and no
such treaty has been made."
Hughes takes the position that the
failure to ratify the Versailles treaty
"cannot detract from rights whfch tho
United States had already acquired."
Ho shows, in addition, that the treaty
specifically states that Germany re
nounced' her territorial rights, "in fa
vor of the prlnicipal allied and asso
ciated powers" and again points out
that America was one-of those powers.
"Thus," he adds, "not only could the
position of the government of Japan
derive no strength from the treaty of
Versailles, but the terms of that
treaty confirm the position of the gov
ernment of the United" States."
The note asserts that, as the United
States did not enter into the treaty
or the mandate convention, this gov
ernment is "unable to understanxl up
on what grounds", tire' allies sought to
confer the mandate without Anrerican
agreement. Confirmation of the man
date, the note continues, "cannot be
regarded as having- efficacy with re
spect to the United" States."
Hughes points out that former Pres
ident Wilson made reservations on
the Yap mandate on three separate oc
casions and adds an interesting, touch
when he discloses runt one ol Wilson's
last official acts, bufore leaving, of f ice,
was to address tile state department
on the subject o Yap.
On March 2, this" year, Wilson wrote
tho department commenting, on a
note from Japan and remarked that
American consent has never been
given to a Japanese mandate.
Wilson referred, to the allied con
tention that the mandate had been as
signed, in hla: presence-, by the council

"My Isle of Golden Dreams"
If one seeks a waltz of singular simplicity and
sweetness, "My Isle of Golden Dreams," will be
found at the foot of the rainbow. It is rhythmically
perfect and suggests by its pretty tone the
beauties of those isles of golden dreams that lie in
placid waters of the Pacific. Hawaiian music
which is largely music of various sized guitars
has never been more effectively recorded than by

of four at Paris, May 7, 1919. Wilson
recalled that he had urged the island
be internationalized for cable purpos
es. Writing on the day before his re-,
tlrement, he said:
"I assume that this position would
be duly considered in connection with
the cable question and that It there
fore was no longer a matter for con
gress in connection with the peace ne
gotiations. Hughes maintains thereon that' as
the proceedings of May 7, 1919, had
no finality so far as the United States
was concerned, he cannot perceive
any ground tor tho contention that
it was the duty of this government to
make Immediate protest with resptct
to the so-called decision."
Pointing out that the United States
protested oe the mandate, when tho
question arose In connection with the
cable communicalons controversy
Hughes adds:
"It Is a cause of regret to thfs gov
ernment that after and despite this
protest there need have been any at
tempt to pass ui)on drafts. of man
dates purporting to deal with the Pa
cific islands, Including Yap, nnd the
mandate should have been approved
without the assent of the United
States."
The note concludes with the asser
tion that the United States seeks no
exclusive right in Yap, but only de
sires to share equally with the other
powers. .
