JAPAN INTENDS TO RETAIN THE
 WAR ISLANDS
Claims Ownership of Man- dated Pacific Group
 That Was Formerly Known as the German
 Colonies :,
By MILES w. VAUGHN

(United Press Stan Correspondent) Tokio, March 23-(UP)-A fiat claim for annexation of mandated Pacific islands was made by Japan to-day when the ministry of navy circulated a pamphlet, expressing the 'indomitable will of the em- pire against surrendering the for mer German colonies.
 The pamphlet was issued follow ing reports that Chancellor Adolph Hitler of Germany hoped to regain the archipelagoes through the League of Nations, which entrust- ed them to Japan's custodianship. Reiterating that the 1900 islands form "Japan's naval lifeline," the ministry declared they were occu- pied during the World war under terms of an agreement with Great Britain. The agreement provided that the colonies should become Japanese possessions at the close of the war, it was contended. The treaty was said to have been superseded later when the allied powers, gathered around the con- ference table, drw up agreements disposing of Germany's colonies. The ministry recalled that Presi- dent Wilson objected to Japan's annexation of the Pacific islands whereupon the mandate agreement was reached as a compromise. It was understood definitely among Japan, Great Britain and France, however, that the mandate actually meant annexation by Japan, the government asserted.
 The ministry's step to-day re- emphasized Japan's position that she will not surrender the islands under any circumstance. Her stand runs counter to foreign opin- ion which claims terms of the madate compel her to return the colonies to the league as soon as she resigns at Geneva.
 A few weeks ago. government spokesmen declared Japan would continue to submit annual reports to the league but insisted it would be only as a matter of form, in no way diminishing her claims to the archipelagoes.
 German Claim
 Berlin, Mar 23--(UP)-The Hit Ter government will assert Ger many's claim to the mandated is- lands of the Pacific when the league of nations counclls mandate committee discusses the question, well-informed observers said today on receipt of the news that Japan has indicated intentions of annex ing the one-time German islands.
 Germany hopes that the league itself will take the initiative in returning the islands, sources close to the government revealed.
 The Koelnische Zeitung. leading Rhineland newspaper, said editor ally: "The Japanese governments declaration that it will retain the island raises and extremely serious problem in which Germany is in- terested for reasons of principle.
 "It is wrong to consider the question from an exclusively Jap anese viewpoint, since it is related to the basic problems of the en- tire mandate system and belongs under the jurisdiction of the league of nations" t.

Bankers of America in a fight

the law becomes effective, the
American Bankers Association
contended in a resolution adopted
on the convention floor.

under the provisions of the bark

result will be the suspension and

banks which would deprive many
communities of any banking IA

losses and new credit deflation

impair the prospects of recovery"
The bankers pledged themselves
to support of President Roose-

out that the most effective bank

depositors.
The resolution contended that
