A criti cal situation has arisen between Sweden and Finland over jSweden's attitude toward a delegation from the Aland islands, which represented to the Swedish government that the population ot the islands desired self-determination on the basis of a teferendum.' After a sharp exchange of - notes between the two govern ments, a battalion of Finnish troops has been landed on Aland and en camped near Mariehamn. The Finnish government has ar rested two leaders of the Aland de putation on a charge of high trea son. . i . Sweden has despatched a note to Finland' urging the Finnish govern ment to-consent to a plebiscite by which 'the population of the islands would decide whether they shall be long to Sweden or Finland, but it is understood the Finnish govern ment Is unshaken in its determina tion to oppose any such measure. Official opinion here is that Fin land's attitude is based upon the assumption . that . the Initiative for separation ot the Alands from Fin land was taken In, Sweden, whereas. it is declared, the agitation began with Alanders who based their right of self-determination on historical grounds and upon principles recog nized by the league of nations. The Finnish government has an nounced 'that ' It "absolutely rejects all such claims as are irreconcilable with her sovereignty over the At ands which Sweden recognired with out reservation." v . , ... ' i The' Aland archipelago. In the Gulf of Bothnia, consists of 80 In habited Islands, with a population ot 2 4.000,' of. whom . 12,00 0 reside on Aland island,' the principal town of which Is Mariehamn. The Islands formerly belonged to Sweden but were taken by Russia in 1809. The Finnish government holds that the political importance of the islands is so great that no Finnish govern ment could cede them to a foreign 1 power and that united with Sweden they would constitute a constant source; of danger to Finland.

July 14. The foreign of fice today issued the following state ment: - "According to a press report from San Francisco the news that 50 pic ture brides were due to arrive In San Francisco July 16 seems to have been received with surprise In, view of the recent engagement of the Ja panese government. The engage ment referred to in the report how ever, was not for prohibiting the de parture of so-called picture brides after the end of February but for stopping Issuance of passports for that, purpose after that date.
