FOUR-POWER TREATY
WAS SIGNED TODAY
i
WASHINGTON. D C., Dec. 13—
The four-power Pacific treaty, agreed
in conference during the past week,
is now in shape for formal approval
and will be signed shortly at the
state department by representatives
of the four nations interested, after
which it will be submitted to the
senate for ratification.
The text of the proposed treaty
between the United States and Jap
an, concerning mandated islands in
the Pacific, was made public late
yesterday afternoon. Under the pro
visions of the agreement, Japan will
have the right to maintain order on
the Island of Yap. The United
States recognizes Japan’s mandate
over the German islands north of
the equator, and the pact gives the
United States certain definite rights
as to Yap, including cable rights. It
is understood, however, that so long
as Japan maintains an efficient radio
station on the island, with unre
stricted communication, the United
States will not exercise its right
to maintain a station there.
Announcement of the treaty was
made by Chairman Hughes, who
'informed the Far Eastern committee
' that the controversy between the
i United States and Japan had been
j adjusted by the agreement, which
j includes all the islands over which 1
(Japan has control by mandate.
! The Japanese government, through ’
! the Arms Conference delegation, has j

j banded and a fresh committee, con-'
! sisting of delegates of the five big
| powers and experts to be named

I tions. The ngw body will take up
' the proposed naval ratios for Italy
. and France and also the question
j of submarines. It is understood the

Quadruple Treaty Signed
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 13
Plenipotentiaries of the United
States, Great Britain, France and
Japan formally signed the new four
power treaty this afternoon, to pre
serve peace on the Pacific, the sig
natures being affixed to the document
in the anteroom of the state depart
ment offices, without ceremony.
The approval of the United States
is given to the treaty subject to the
written understanding with the Jap-,
anese government, providing that the !
American-Japanese Yap treaty be!
consumated before the quadruple!
treaty becomes binding. Except for'
this reservation, which is expected ;
to be erased within a few days, the j
new agreement requires only parlia- '
mentary ratification to make it:
binding.
The American official copy of the
treaty has been sent to President
Harding, for transmission by him j
to the United States senate, which •
body it probably will reach shortly.!

er treaty, which was signed today, j

ed “to do all i nmy power to pre
vent its ratification.”
