ALLIES CONFER
ON NOTE REPLY

London, April 11.-(Ry the Asso-
ciated Press) The situation which
Great Britain. France, Italy and
Japan must consider before replying to
the recent American note regarding
mandates, is without precedent in
diplomatic history. according to Off
cial circles here Monday and the re-
ply will be forthcoming only after a
consultation and perhaps conferences of
the allies.
The fact that an American plenpo-
tentiary to the peace conference is a
signatory to the treaty which the
American government refuses to ac-
cept, is a new diplomatic problem
which the allies must solve, and un-
til there is an exchange Of views be-
tween the allies official or semi Off
cial opinion regarding the American
note is not likely to be available.
TWO POWERS REPLY
Washington, April 11.-France and
Great Britain are understood to have
replied to Secretary Hughes recent
notes regarding the japanese mandate
over the Pacific island of Yap. The
British governments response is said
to have been of preliminary nature.
State department officers. while in
timating that replies had been re-
ceived, declined to say SO positively,
Or to indicate their nature.
Direct Talk, Paris Urge.
France, in replying to previous
American note regarding the Yap mar-
date, expressed the hope that the con-
troversy between the United States
and Japan on this subject could be
settled by direct negotiations between
them without involving her as
principal. Whether renewed express
sion is given to this hope in Frances
latest note has not been disclosed, but
some diplomats are of the opinion that
in any event her new communication
would 90 further, inasmuch as Mr
Hughes dealt with the whole subject of
mandates, as we'll as with Yap spccfi-
cally.
