BALF0UR FRAMING
REPLY ON PROTEST
connnaed from Fnst Page.

Class r mandates seem TO be offering
nothing Ike the embarrassment caused
by the American protest over the Island
of zap, as these Glass 4 and Glass y
mandates undoubtedly can be shaped
to overcome the objections of the United
States.
On tho contrary. the Class { mandate
protest brings souarely before the Euro
pean Powers the controversy between
the United States and pan. a con-
troversy in which these Powers have
until this time taken only casual in
terest.
Baron Hayashi japanese representa-
tive in the council, had grave express
sion when he left the council meeting
tonight. He refused absolutely 10 say
word about the American protest.
Every one here sees in the American
note to the council the opening of an
important and dominating question OF
Americas 8 whole relations toward the
peace treaty, question which, it was
predicted in some quarters. must result
in special conference. The idea that
Mr.. Harding will consent to argue Amer
ica's case before the council of the
League of Nations seems to be held BY
some persons here. and Mr.. Balfour ;
note may be drawn up with this design.
Tho council heard to-day Col. Char

League of Nations force TO occupy Wilma
during the plebscite. in connection with
the Wilma discussions These discussions
foreshadowcd a complete abandonment
OF the iCea of sending an international

Soviet. Col. Chardigny gave it as lis
opinion that It was likely the presence

clash with the Bolshevki and that the
1900 men who constituted the interna-
tional force might be annihilated.

IRISH KINGS BENCH
UPHOLDS MILITARY
FiUe Judges Decide Court
MortioIs HoUe Full Pouer.

DUBLIN, Feb. 24.--The King Bench.
composed Of the Chief Justice and four
other judges, rendered an important de-
clsion to-day in a case involving the
powers OF the military. The judges
unanimously decided that state of war
existed and that the military had full
Power to deal with the insurrection
without interference by the civil courts.
The judgment was rendered in the
case OF John Allen of Tipperary. who
was sentenced to death by court
martial in Cork for having revolver
and ammunition in his possession. The
sentence was challenged before the
Kings Bench on the ground that the
court-martial had no jurisdiction to inn
pose the death sentence. which is not
provided by law for such offences, or any
sentence, when the ordinary courts were
open.
Armed civilians attacked two con-
stables in Bandon County Cork. last
night. killing one and woundine tho
other. Two soldiers were kidnapped
and shot dead in the suburbs Of the

May Z. 1919. included or inserted the
island OF Zap in the proposed mandate
10 Japan.
This Government in notes addressed
to the Governments of Great Britain.
France Italy and Japan has set forth
at length its contention that Zap had in
fact been excepted from this proposed
mandate anG was not TO be included
therein. Furthermore, by direction of
President Wilson. the respective Gov
ernments above mentioned were in
formed that the Government of the
United States could not concur in the
reported decision Of May T. 1919. OF the
Supreme Council The information was
further conveyed that the reservations
which had previously been made by this
Government regarding the Island of
Zap were ba sed on the view that the
Island OF Zap necessarily constitutes an
indispensable part OF any scheme or
practicable arrangement of cable COM
munication in the Pacific and that its
free ard unhampered use should not be
limited or controlled by any one power
While this Government has never as
sented to the inclusion of the Island of
lar in the proposed mandate to Japan.
1t may be pointed out that even II one
or more of the other principal allied
and associated Powers were under a
rl'sapprehenson as to the Inclusion of
This island in the reported decision of
May !, 1919, nevertheless the notes ABOVE
mentioned OF the Government Of the
Cn!ted states make clear the position OF
this Government in the matter. AZ the
time when the several notes were adj
dressed to the respective Governments
above mentioned a final agreement had
not been reached as to the terms and
allocation of mandates covering the for
mer German islands i'm the Pacific.
Therefore tho position taken in the mat
ter by the President on behalf OF this
Government. and clearly set forth in
the notes referred to. necessarily had
the result of effectively Withdrawing
any suggestion or implication OF assent
mistakenly imputed TO this Government
long before December II, 1920, the date
of the councils meeting at Geneva.
"As one of the principal allied and
associated Powers the United States
has an equal concern and an inseparable
Interest with the other principal allied
and associated Powers in the overseas
possessions Of Germany. and concededly
an equal voice in their disposition which
II Is respectfully submitted cannot be
undertaken or effectuated without It's
assent. The Government Of the United
States therefore respectfully states that
1t cannot regard itself as bound by the
terms and provisions of said mandate
and desires to record its protest against
tho reported decision of December II
last of the council of the League of Ma
tions in relation therto. and at the same
time to request that the council. having
obviously acted under misap apprehension
of the facts. should reopen the question
for the further consideration which the
proper settlement of it clearly requires.

Greeks and the Turks is the only so!u-
tioh of the problem at this time and
seems unavoidable.
The British made it plain to-day, how
ever. that there was a limit 10 con-
ciliation and that they would not go
beyond this limit. Whatever final dis
position is made Of the territory in dis
pute in Asia Minor the British arc de-
termincd that guarantees must be given

The Turks seem willing enough to
grant guarantees in connection with the
Christians in return FOR guarantees OF
the safety of Moslens in countries where
they are in minority. The Turks. how
ever are still sticking out for the
Straits.
Competent observers mere hold that
there Is a chance of some kind OF an
agreement here, once tho Turks give up
their demand for the whole OF Thrace
which no one here thinks they will get
On the other hand the Turks may get
certain concessions in connection with
