 of the League of Nations. The Type A mandates apply to the Orient, and the Type c to the Pacific colonies. It was the last named type of mandate that developed the objections by Baron Matsui.
 The Japanese delegate found that the mandate for the Pacific colonies gave Japan less advantages than she enjoyed in those colonies under the German rule, it was stated. Three of the four voting delegates in the council approved the drafts, but Bar on Matsui reserved the appreciation of Japanese and asked for time to re- fer the question to his government The details to which tue Japanese representatives objected were not disclosed, but it is assumed here that the question of the migration of Jap anese to colonies which would come under the mandate of Australia was involved, as well as the economic ad- Vantages the Japanese formerly en- joyed under the most favored na- ton clause.
