AMERICAN NOTE BELIEVED TIC

FROM VICTORIOUS ALLIES.

Washington, Sept. The right OF
the United States TO have a part IN
the afterwar settlements, regardless
OF its refusal to ratily the treaty Ol
Versailles or become a member OF the
league OF nations has been recognized
by the allied powers.
This became known yesterday when
II was learned the state department
had dispatched another note to the
allied governments, insisting again on
an open door policy tn mandate tel
ritory officials see recognition OF
this policy and this governments
right in the specific request made b.
the allies for an outline OF the Amer.
lean attitude.
The new note was dispatched by
Secretary Hughes after the exchange
of notes regarding cable concessions
on tn Island OF zap. In the Yaf
case the United States insisted IL
could not be excluded from partiCipa
ton In the distribution OF former Ger
man overseas possessions This right
was won by the participation IN u,
| war, the government argued, and IN
| fact that 1t was not a party TO the
| council which attempted the distribu.

right. The same point was made with
Great Britain over oil development in

This position is strongly re-Stated
| in the new note which refers to elias
A and b mandate in Palestine, Syria
and Africa.
Vigorous protest is recorded in the
new note that the mandates govern
ing concessions in these districts were
drawn to apply only to nationals
whose governments are members OF
the league of nations. The state de.
partments communication, while con.
ceding that such discrimination may
not have been intentional. states the
effect. nevertheless. is exclusion OF
American interests in the territory
concerned.
While the state department is no.
prepared to give out the text of its

has had a marked effect in bringing
about recognition by the allied pow
