GREAT BRITAIN
TOSUPPORTU.S
IN YAP CLAIMS
Decision Linked With Renewed
American Representation
in Councils.
ALLIED SUPPORT SEEN

WASHINGTON, May e.-Great Britain
has given informal assurances to the
United States that she will support the
American contentious with regard TO the
Island of zap and other inundated ter
ritories in which this Government has
set up claims Of equality with other VIC
tors in the war with Germany, ac.ord-
ing to information prevailing today in
diplomatic circles.
While the State Department, "of1cial-
ly," Is still awaiting a British reply to
Secretary Hughes recent note, 1t Is un-
derstood the same Informal conferences
which resulted in the decision to renew
American representation In the allied
councils resulted also in an understand
ing with Great Britain that the Ameri-
can claims in Yap win have the support
of our erstwhile allies. a
GEDDEs HOLDS
CONFERENCES.
During the last two weeks Sir Auck-
land Geddes, the British ambassador, has
held a number Of informal conversations
with the Secretary of State. The sub
ject matter Of these conversations and the
conclusions reached have not been lis
closed, but 1t is believed that such as
suranees were given Secretary Hughes
that he felt no hesitancy in advocating
the resumption Of American participation
In the European councils.
Prior to these conferences with the
British ambassador, the State Department
permitted the impression to go forth that
American representation could hardly sit
on the supreme council until the allies
had indicated their attitude on the Yap
protest by replying to the note of Sec
retary Hughes.
After the conferences. It was indicated
this Government viewed the Yap question
and the problem presented by German
reparations as two separate and dis
tinet'' questions, the consideration Of
whihc would in no way serve to en-
barrass the representatives, of the United
States in. their dealings with the ques-
tions as members Of these high commits
sions. 1t was stated that mo particular
concern" was felt about Yap.
HARVEY To PRESENT
UNITED STATES CLAIMS.
Secretary Hughes despatched his United
States claims decIara tiors Of principles to
the four great powers-Great Britain,
France, japan and Italy, April 2, five
weeks ago. Since that time replies have
been received from France and Italy.
Japan and Great Britain. so far as Is
known, have not replied officially.
When the zap mandate is again taken
up by the supreme council, Col. George
Harvey, the personal representative Of
the President OF the United States, will be
on hand to press home the points raised
in Secretary Hughes note-the principal
one of which is that the United States
contributed equally 10 the winning OF the
war, which made mandates possible, and
as an equal contributor should be An
equal sharer in the benefits to< be de-
prived from that victory.

German officials allege that Great Brit

Polish military coup in Upper Silesia
to compel Germany to sign the ultima
tum. An unconfrmed report was cur

timation has been conveyed to Germany
that unless she accepts the allied ulu-
