REBUFF BY ALLIES
STIRS WASHINGTON
Purpose to Ignore Wilson Ad-
ministration Seen in Meso-
potamian Mandate.
Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD

Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. c., Feb. 2.
Approval of the form OF the BRUSH
mandate for Mesopotarnia by the allied
Powers without regard to any interest
which the United States might have Is
regarded with undisguised irritation by
officials here. This irritation is espe-
cially keen in view of the fact that the
terms of the mandate, which nave been
given to the press but not to the Ameri-
can Government, are wholly at Vari-
ance with the letter addressed some
time ago by Secretary of State Colby to
the British Secretary Of State for For
eign Affairs.
In that note the United States pro-
tested against the exploitation of any
mandate territory for the benefit of the
country holding the mandate. 1t was
represented that such course would
be in violation of the spirit of mandates
as understood at the Versailles confer
ence.
1t had been assumed the British Gov
ernment would reply to MIR. Colby's note
before action was finally taken on the
form of the mandate.
The form of mandate adopted for
Mesopotamia is known as "Class A" and
must still be referred to the league
council for approval. There is little
hope that the League Council will dis
approve, however, in view of its action
already on "Claes AZ mandates, under
which general classification the islands
of the Pacific have been allocated. The
Glass c" mandates are regarded by
the United States as violating the spirit
of the treaty just as much as the Meso-
potamian mandate.
.,.A AfF ;nfo rda,.c 1,n-f
that the allied Powers have decided to
ignore the Wilson Administration, be-
cause of its brief tenure in office, and
present fait accompli for the Harding
Administration. This is believed to be
the result of lack of understanding of
the American system. The European
Governments, 1t is assumed, can hardly
he aware that the flouting of an outgo-
ing Administration and to that extent of
the American people is unlikely to be
condoned by any Administration that
may succeed TO power.
While, 1t is realized that there is lit
tie which the present Administration can
do to protect American interests in
Mesopotamia and other mandate terri
tories, the record will nevertheless be
kept straight.
1t is not expected that the British
Government will go SO far as to ignore
the Colby note altogether, and Mr.. Colby
is being relied upon to reply to IL in
terms that will be strong enough to be
understood abroad. There will be no
recession from the principle that Amer
leans arc entitled to equal rights in
Mesopotamia and elsewhere in mandate
territory.
The administration will maintain this
position in the disposition Of the Island
Of Yap, concerning which strong repre-
sentations are being prepared.

FRENCH WOULD WORK

BERLIN, Feb. 2.-French interests are
seeking to negotiate an agreement with
the Zeppelin company providing for
joint operation of airships for peace
time pursuits, says a despatch to the
Boerscn-ZeituHO from Friedrichshaven.
No agreement has yet been perfected.
according to the despatch. but II is likely
that one will be reached in view Of the
need of the Germans Tor ourside assist
ance.
A feeling exists in certain circles adds
the report. that the German airship in
dustry will be wiped out unless aided by
foreign capital. In this connection CO.
operation with American interests Is
suggested as probable.

SANTIAGO, Chile, Feb. 2.-Admiral
Rodman. commander Of the United

Mercn'io as saying the visit Of the fleet
Is new manifestation Of the true Mon

The visit is manifestation of the

America and Is a respectful and sincere
greeting from one republic to another"
Admiral Rodman is quoted as saying.
Nothing Is more erroneous than to be-
lieve that the North American spirit in
the application of the doctrine tends to
dominate and direct other nations. Our
attitude would be at the most that of a
protector and never dictator.
Our position is to guarantee the
amplest liberty to all American coun-
tries. even the weakest in the direction
of its own affairs Our purpose. should
the occasion arise. would be no other
than to say 10 whatever European
Power that attempted to intervene in

The Diarto IIustrado says the call of
the war vessels at Il Chilean port is
nothing less than ratification Of the
sincere affection linking Chile and the
United States and is mark of the tacit
understanding and mutual respect which
subsists between the republics"
Admiral Rodman and his staff called
upon President Alessandri and MEM
bers of the Cabinet. who reviewed a
parade of 500 sailors from the fleet
After reviewing the parade President
Alessandri turned to Admiral Rodman
and sad: II cannot resist the desire
to express the hope that the constella-
ton in the North American flag may
continue spreading it's powerful rays of
light for the material and moral prog
ress of the world. and that under the
light of those rays the new humanity
will be fused in universal harmony and

KEMAL DETERMINED
TOIGNORE ALLIES
Would Force Recognition of
Turkish Nationalist
Party.

CoNsrANTINoPIE Feb. 2.-Mustapha
Kennel Pasha, leader of the Nationalsts,
appears definitely determined not to
treat with the Allies for the present, but
to await the result of the Bolshevist
campaigns, and also possibly strike a
blow himself to increase the strength or
his position with the hope of forcing the
Allies into recognition of the Turkish
Nationalists.
Kemal Pasha's message insisting that
the Angora administration be recognized
as the legitimate Turkish Government is
taken here as an indication that Musta-
pha Kemal has broken off negotiations
with the Constantinople Government.
PARIS Feb a Havas despatch
SAYS that as soon as communication
from Constantinope regarding the Lon
don conference reached Angora MUS
tapha Kemal Pasha convoked the Coun-
Gil in secret session. 1t is known that
the Council decided that direct re-
quest must be made by the Allies to the
Angora Government before the latter
consents to accept participation in the
conference.
LONDON, Feb at was said IN Of
fetal circles to-day that there was no
likelihood of postponement of the con-
ference to be held here February 81 be-
tween representatives Of the Allies and
of the Greeks and the Turks concerning

The invitation to participate in the
conference extended to Kemal Pasha
was in reply to an intimation conveyed
by Constantinople that Mustapha kemai
claimed that his Nationalist Assembly
was the only authority qualified to speak
for Turkey.
