London, Jan. 30—In a late edition
the Mali prints a report from its cor-
respondent in Baris, who writes that
tlie treaties lietween England and Ja-
pan relative to tlie Islands in the
North Pacific, witli the Arabs regard-
ing Syria and tlie understanding with
France as to the future status, of
Kanicftln. must be, arbitrarily modi-
fied if not torn up.
Tlie Japanese delegates are angry,
and alarmed and dqelarc their unal-
terable determination to claim the is-
lands, as premised, the correspondent
says, and adds “these islands are real-
ly the crux of the whole situatidli."
“Tile Ans trails ns," tlie cones pon-
ilcirt continues, "believe President
Wilson's firm stand in this matter is
due to ids fear that Japanese occupa--
lion of the islands would inqiair liis
prestige in the United States and that
lie fears to meet a hostile congress in
March if lie agrees to tlie absolute re-
tention of the islands by Japan.
“Italian delegates frankly avow
their claims to Finuie aud insist that
tlie promise of part of the Dalmatian
const stipulated in the pact of Lon-
don must lie made good. They de-
clare that President Wilson's attitude
regarding Flume directly, contradict*
Ids declaration of the rights of people*
outlined in his ’fourteen points.”’
