LEAGUE'S MANDATE SYSTEM.
(Continued from Paje 6.)
This is the pledge which applies particularly to the German colonies. The position of Turkey was 'de- fined by Point XII, thus:
The Turkish portions of the present Ottoman Empire should be assured a secure sovereignty, but the other nationalities which ого now under. Turkish ruló should be assured an undoubted security of life and an absolute- ly unmolested opportunity of
autónomous davelopment.
It was "the other nationalities" that came under the mandatory system-namely, Iraq, Arabia, Syria and Palestine.
President Wilson may not have been so explicit as the Russians in declaring for an outright polley of "no annexations and no indemni- ties." But he did say that "the day jof conquest and aggrandizement is gone by," and-declarations of this kind placed the Allies in a dilemma. They declined to hand back the conquered territories to the enemy powers. Yet,, under the terms pre- ceding the armistice, they could' not "annex" the territories. They decided, therefore, to vest the nov- ereignty over these territories in an international body, the League of Nations,
The League was not jet in exis- tence. Obviously, it would be un- able to undertake the immediate task of administering the conquer- ed territories. In Article XXII of the covenant it was therefore laid down that mandates should be. Issued by the League to powers able and willing to undertake these responsibilities.
It was urged that many persons in certain territories had fought for the Allies and had been pro- mised that they would never be handed back to their former mas- tera. It is a consideration that, obviously, was of greater import- ance twelve years ago than it is to-day, when the passions of war have subsided and combatants have returned to civil life.
The Allies laid emphasis on "the interests of the populations con- cerned." In other words, it was suggested that Gormany's treat- ment of native peoples disqualified her to be, a colonizing power.
Germany Enters A Denial. To many Germans claiming to he acquainted with the conduct of other colonizing powers this allege- tion has been as distasteful as the imputation of war-guilt.
It was also alleged that, as a colonial sovereignty, Germany would arm the natives and use sea- The ports for Dayal stations. alienation of the Gorman colonies, like the destruction of the German fleet, was defended as a contribu- tion to disarmament. Again, Ger-) many applies her yardstick of equality. She can point to the fact that France has armed colonial populations and has even Intro- duced coloured troops into the Rhineland. Aleo, Britain has used colonial seaports as naval stations.
