COLBY SENDS NOTE
Britain Is Told American Governments
Does Not Propose to Be Excluded
in Observation-Disclosures In
League Not Essential.

WashingtSn-The American govern
ment has informed Great Britain po-
litely but firmly, that it does not pro-
pose to be excluded from participation
In the rights and privileges obtained
under mandates provided in the trea-
ties of peace. Furthermore, it expects
to be heard regarding the terms of
those mandates before they are put
into force.
The position of the United States
is set forth in note by Secretary
Colby to Earl Curzon, the British
secretary of state for foreign affairs,
and the specific question discussed
is that of the Mesopotamia petroleum
fields.
Y. S. Refuses Exclusion.
The American note takes issue with
what is described as the British po-
sition that mandate agreements AMI
treaties are to be considered only by
states that are members Of the League
OF Nations 1t states that the United
States, as participant in the World
war, "and a contributor to its success
full issue, cannot consider any of the
Associated Powers, the smallest not
less than itself, debarred from discus
sion of any Of its consequence, or from
participation in the rights and priyi-
leges secured under the mandates pro-
vfded in the treaties of peace"
Mr.. Colby says in his note that the
American government accepts the
statement Of the British government
that it has refrafned from exploiting
the petroleum resources of the man
dated territories in question, "and
welcome your pledges" that it is far
from the intention of Great Britain
to Establish any kind of monopoly
or preferred proposition in it's own in.
terest.''
Equal Treatment Demanded.
II need hardly refer again." Mr..
Colby continue, ito the fact that the
government of the United States has
:: consistently urged that it is of the ut
most importance to the future peace
.. Of the world that alien territory trans
ferred as result Of the war with the
Central powers should be held and ad-
ministered in such way as to assure
; equal treatment to the commerce and
to the citizens Of all nations. Indeed
1t was in reliance upon an understand
ing to this effect, and expressly in con-
temptation thereof, that the United
!. States was persuaded that the acquisi-
ton under mandate Of certain enemy
territory by the victorious powers
would be consistent with the best in
terests Of the world.

Alleged Pact Between U. S. Great
Britain and France, Printed in
Mexico, Termed False.
HELD TEUT0N PRODUCT
Jap Clause Termed With Being az
Foolish As It Was False-State
Department Denies Any
Such Agreement.

Washington-Public in Mexico
City of what purported to be the text
of treaty between the United States,
Great >Britain and France, signed in
1917, and dealing with certain rights
claimed by those countries in Mexico,
brought prompt official denial from
the State department Of the existence
of any such pact.
Officials at the department were In
clined to believe the published text
was that of a false treaty prepared
during the war by Germany for propa-
ganda purposes in Mexico. There had
been, they said, previous indications
of the circulation of this false docu-
ment.
"As Foolish as False"
The statement that one clause of
the alleged treaty provided for GER
tain measures to meet possible Jap
anese hostility was noted particular
ly, and characterized at the depart
ment as being as foolish as it was
false.
On the other main subject dealt
with in the spurious pact, continue
ton of the flow of oil from Mexican
wells owned by nationals of the three
powers. it was regarded as conceivable
that some sort of informal understand
ing might have been reached by the
three governments, ,necessftated by the
exigencies of war. It was said Of
acially, however, that nothing of the
kind had been reduced to writing.
It was recalled in this connection
that Mexican fuel oil was essential
to British naval operations during the
war.
Earlier Report Denied. :,
The suggestion that written. agree
ment existed was made last month in
the Mexico City press, statement to
that effect being attributed to Hilario
Medina, acting minister of foreign at.
fairs in the Carranza cabinet It was
promptly denied by Cuthberto Hidalgo,
! holding similar post under the pre-.
sent provisional government in Mexico,
and who declared Medina had brought
about publication of statement he
knew to be false for the purpose of
embarrassing friendly relations be.
tween the provisional government and
the United States.
