The President and japan

CLAIMS OF Italy TO enemy territory founded

Great Britain, France and Russia early in
the war, have resulted in firm declaration
on the part Of President Wilson against the
bartering OF and peoples in such
fashion. His pronouncement had immediate
relation to the Italian problem but i, was
general enough in its application TO cover
inc designs OF any power which seeks by
underground bargaining OF this sort to make
raid upon lands and populations for which.
Tor the time being, the peace conference is
acting as trustee.
In considering the Presidents recent
statement in all its bearing, it is difficult 10

pose tho same objection to Japans Far

parallel, in fact. is SO striking that Italy even
now is appealing directly to the Japs for
support in its demands on the ground that
