War over Treaties Wilson Said Hid
Washington, Aug. A first hand account of the negotiations that yielded the Shantung settlement was given to the Senate by Prof. Elry Williams, ex- Far Eastern adviser. He opposed the transfer of German Shantung rights to Japan but said his resignation from the peace commission was not due to opposition. He recalled President Wilson weighing Britain and France’s pledges to Japan and the 1915 treaty while insisting on sanctity of treaties. Williams noted the president offered no explicit response to the 14 points and later received a secretary’s note of thanks for memorandum before the decision was announced.
