Washington, April !. The position
of the Trench rioverninent in its latest
note to this country thnt the Yap dis
pute should lie settled directly between
this country antl Japan will not be ac
ceptable le the Cnltctl Slates. This
note was dispatched from Paris prior
to tile reioipt of the latest Hughes note
on Yap. Hut it expresses the real de
sire of the allied untit.tis to wash their
hands of the whole dispute.
The same idea is voiced iu allied dip

is an cinburriissiHg one lor Lngland nml

war to cive, certain (icrmiin possessions

of Nations in awarding up to Japan

that understanding.
Kranee and lCnglnud now hope thnt
Japan will .vield to this country 'n de
sire to see Yap intcriiatinnalizetl. And
special reasons for thnt internationaliza

This second visit did nccm- during
