CHAGRIN OF JAPAN MUCH IN EVIDENCE BARON SHIDEHARA URGES THE PUBLICATION OF RECENT YAP CORRESPONDENCE 7 KEY HELD BY GREAT BRITAIN Accepted, It is Conceded That. One Great Obstacle will be Removed. Washington. - Japan's chagrin at the apparent. desertion by Franc-.' of the Japanese cause in the controversy over the Island of Yap was evidenced by Japanese diplomats here when it was made plain at. the Japanese em bassy that Haron Shidehara has urg ed the publication of the Yap cor respondence on the ground that Japan has not had a proper public -hearing. The action of France in promising to urge a solution satisfactory to the American government when the ques tion of Yop comes tip before the Al. lied Supreme Council is believed to have been influenced by intimations from this government that participa tion by America in the deliberations of the supreme council might be do. pendent upon the acceptance or re jection by the allies of the fundamen. tal principles laid down by Secretary Hughes in recent note. Great Britain, it was pointed out, holds the key to the situation. If the British reply to Secretary Hughes' note is as 5 ..ipathetic as that of France, Japan can hardly hold out against a re-opening of the whole question of mandates. With the Hughes doctrine of man, dates unequivocally accepted, it is be. lieved that one of the greatest ob stacles to American participaon in the forthcoming council of ambassa- I dors would have been removed.
