Lively Interest in U, s. oil Note

Geneva, Nov. 3O.--Livcly interest is
displayed here among the delegates in
the published text of the American note
TO Great Britain regarding the Meso-
potamian oil fields. Coming at a mo
ment when council and the assembly
committees have the difficult problem of
mandates under consideration. the judi q.
cial point raised in the American nOte
as to the competency of mandatory
to exploit the raw materials under its
mandate for its own advantage, is con
sidered by jurists handling the mat
ter as of the highest importance in fix
ing the dcfuite status of mandatorics
in their respective territories
1t is held here by some authorities
that the American thesis, i. e., that all
nations must have nm equal advantage
in mandate territories. is a fair inter
pretation of the letter and spirit of the
league covenant as regards mandates.
