Mrs. Mitchell, who at first stated

REPLIES ARE MADE
TO MANDATES NOTE
France Said to Favor Yielding TO the
American Decentralization In-
Ciined to Stand by Jap.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-France
and Great Britain are understood to have
replied to Secretary Hughes's recent
notes regarding the japanese mandate
over the Pacific island of Zap. The Brit
iNh governments response is said to have
been of a preliminary nature.
France in replying to previous
American note regarding the zap man
date. expressed the hope that the contro-
versy between the United States and
japan on this subject could be settled by
direct negotiations between them with
out involving her as a principal;
Some diplomats believe that her new
communication goes farther, inasmuch as
Mr. Hughes dealt with the whole sub
ject of mandates, as well as with zap
specifically.
In view of the supposed tentative
character of the British reply to Mr..
Hughes, there was little disposition in
official circles to comment regarding the
attitude of that government.
The opinion has been advanced, how
ever, that Great Britains attitude prob
ably would be influenced in great meas
ure by whether or not Japan insisted
upon the carrying out of the terms of the
treaty of London! under which Great
Britain and France agreed she should
have the former German islands north of
the equator. This treaty was entered
into before the United States declared
war on Germany and at the time when
Japan was asked to come more actively
to the assistance Of the European allies
in combating the German submarine
menace.

We Two.

We were young, we We're braye,
When we started out together,
To travel life'S winding road.
We climbed with a song
It's rough steep hills
And laughed as we shared the load.
There were storms. there were sriefs
As we went along together.
But the storms always ended in suns
And the SORROWS made us tender
OF our brothers aching heart
And left us with n victory won.
The hills are all climbed
We are going down together.
Down the beautiful quiet road.
There are loving children's hands
To help us as we go,
And lift from our shoulders the load.
50 we look back with JOY
On the road we trod together
And we look ahead with brightest hope
For the steep hills are passed
And the sunny valley smiles
At the foot of the winding slope.
