HUGHES REVIEWS
WORLD PROBLEMS
Foreign Relations Of Govern
ment Discussed at Two-Hour
Cabinet Meeting
LEAGUE NOT TAKEN UP

Washington. March 23.--The greater
part Of yesterdays session Of the cab
met. which lasted more than two hours,
was taken up in a consideration Of the
foreign relations Of the government.
A large portion Of the discussion was
consumed by a review by Secretary Of
State Hughes OF the world situation as
he found It after an examination Of
records at his disposal in the State
Department.
Secretary Hughes review was not
directed to the problems in foreign rela-
tions that have arisen from the re-
fusal Of the Senate to accept the cove
nant of the League Of Nations, but had
to do with the conditions. political and
economic, that confront the world to-
day, when social and industrial chaos
exist in parts Of the globe, with their
direct reflection upon virtually every
other nation, including the United
, States.
Trade Development Reviewed
The questions Of renewed relation
ships between countries following the
world war aud the development of
trade among the nations were discussed
By Secretary Hughes.
Although he. covered every first
class diplomatic situation now before
the State Department, it was an
nolnced he made no recommendations
Of specific action or policy. The secre.
tary Of states purpose, it was ex-
planned, was to acquaint the President
and the cabinet with the exact state OF
Americas foreign relations as he found
them on March 4 and as they stand to-
day. The Japanese Qucstions--the
California land issue and Yap--.bulked
large in the account OF Mr.. Hughes
eighteen day stewardship. The endless
Mexican tangle came in for mention.
Progress In Cable Dispute
The secretary Of state narrated the
substantial progress America has made
i'll obtaining a sluarc, deal out of the
controversy over the borrowed German
cables. He told the cabinet how Pan
anna and Costa Ricu have promised to
b. good. Mr.. Hughes, too, explained
10 his executive colleagues just where

| treaty leaves that homeless diplomatic
child On "a large lumber Of ques-
tions associated with the aftermath Of
tho war; inquircrs were Informed. the
secretary Of state had given the cabiuet
light if not leading.
With the overwhelmingly important
foreign affairs confronting the United
States--Peace with Germany and the
League Of Nations--Nfr. Hughes, it
was affirmed, did not deal. The posi- {.
| tion obviously remains as described 10

OF the President and his respou :
