One of the thorny questions which the Paris Peace Confer ence has found it hard to tackle is the final disposition of those Islands in the Marshall and Caroline Groups which were taken by the Japanese from the Germans in the early period of the war, and have since been in occupation by a Japanese naval force and under the administra tion of a Japanese Admiral. Chiefly through the opposition of the Australian Confederation, those Islands have so far net been formally ceded to Japan as the Island Empire would have liked, the reason being that she wants an outlet for her dense popul ation. The League of Nations, on whose shoulders the solution of this problem has been shifted. will have a difficult task before it

in making arrangements whereby both claimants may be satisfied.

Yamamoto, who has beec in the Colony on his way to Japan from Europe, where as one of Japan's Peace Delegates he took a pro- minent part in the deliberations on the fate of the Islands,

A representative of the Telegraph interviewed him prior to his departure for the North. From him, we have elicited the information that the progress in connection with the settlement of the South Seas Islands question is far from satisfectory, but that these Islands will continue to be administered by the Japanese pending the decision of the Captain League of Nations. Yamamoto's special mission in connection with the Peace Con- ference was to Rome where he conferred with the Pope in regard to the German Cathalic Mission- ary stations ca the Marshall and Caroline Islands, which, with change in regime, could not be allowed to continue, an objectiön being raised to its personnel. His' mission therefore was to apply for a change of the missionary staffs, and he was successful in having secured a promise from the Holy See to replace the deported Germans by French, Italian and Belgian substitutes. Captain Yamamoto has had an Soon after interesting career.
