PARIS, June 13.-The United States
Government has been reminded
through diplomatic channels that the
League Of Nations has received no an

to be particularly anxious to close up
the matter on account OF the situation
in Mesopotamia. The French Colonial
authorities also are urging prompt
settlement. 1t is not quite clear, how
ever, when the question OF mandates
will come up.
There are two tendencies inside the
League of Nations with regard to man

tion back to the principal powers which
negotiated the Versailles treaty and
are responsible for the attribution OF
the mandates The contention of those

really exercises no initiative regarding
mandates and has only to do with the
approval of terms and the supervision
of administration of territories under
the terms of the mandates decided upon.
The French Government Is understood
to favor modification of the terms OF
the mandates to meet the American
views. while Great Britain opposes this.
The other tendency is to consider
that the United States has defaulted by
not sending a representative to the
League of Nations. as she was invited to
do. and finally accepting the terms of
the class "a" and "B" mandates. Those
favoring this tendency profess to re-
gard the failure Of the Washington Gov

the American protest.
