TAKE PRIZES AÎ FAIR PORTLAND TAKEN OUT The Tide Is Too Strong 4 4 Washington, Oct. 5.— Four a mend­ menta to the covenant of the league of nations by tho Danish. Norwegian and Swedish governments probably will be taken up at the first meeting of the assembly of the league at Ge­ nova on November 15. They have already been submitted to all mom bera of the league for study and re­ quire the approval of the council and a majority vote of the assembly to become effective. One suggestion proposes a fixed annual meeting of the assembly to be hold either at tho time provided for in the rules of procedure or on a specific ditto such aa the second Monday in September. It is also proposed that on the demand of 10 members of the league n specilli meeting of the assembly shall be called at any time. Another proposal would regularize tho method of selecting the four non-pormanent members of the coun­ cil. lit Is suggested that the assem­ bly after the first selections shall name a now state each year to serve for a period of four years which shall not be subject to re-elect Ion for llie following period, The purpose Is to secure successive representation on tho council of a Inrr number of states while maklsv only one rhanic la membership each year. A third amendment proposed omit tho word "generally" from the following paragraph in Article XIII: "Disputes as to the Interpretation of a treaty, as to any question of International law, as to the existence of any fact, which, If established, would constitute a breach of any in­ ternational obligation, or as to the extent and nature of the reparation to be made for any such breach, are declared to be among those which are generally suitable for submission to arbltsrtlon." The purpose Is to make the obliga­ tion to report to arbitartlon more absolute and precise. The fourth amendment would per­ mit the council to authorize a state In the vicinity ef another state against which an economic blockade has been enforced to maintain a cer­ tain degree of Intercourse with the covenant-breaking slats If this Is considered necessary by the council to prevent tho blockaded state from threatening or attacking Its neigh­ bor. It la contended that soaio meas­ ure of freedom should be allowed es­ pecially In the case of small states where the fulfilment of tho blockade obligation might lead to occupation of territory by the covenant-breaking state. Heprmluced by permission New York Tribune. Ino. Copyrighted IMO. Dublin. Oct. 5 —No attempt has yet been made by the government to suppress effectively the Sinn Fein civil courts. When the Sinn Feiners arrest and try prisoners for criminal offenses the police interfere, release the men charged and break up the courts where they can be discovered. But civil trials, in the nature of ar­ bitrations between willing parties, are openly held every day. In many districts they have completely super- ' seded the king’s courts and the liti­ gants appearing before them include members of every class In the com- I munity. Unionists as well as Nation­ alists. The Sinn Fein Judges, appointed by election, are sworn in publicly with due ceremony and regular at­ torneys. though nominally officials I of the high court of justice, appear before them. The assize Judges at I the recent assizes found that about i 70 per cent of cases listed for trial I had been withdrawn from the record and transferred to the republican courts. The Westmeath county council has i decided that all British courthouses In the county shall be closed and have asked the republican police to prevent the buildings from being used for holding courts not recog­ nized by the republican government. At Swinford the East Mayo, a re­ publican court held a public session and tried 30 cases mostly Involving title to land and houses. They tried ,» in camera a case of seduction. At Loughrea an Ulster Presbyter­ ian appeared before a republican court as plaintiff in a land dispute between him and some Sinn Feiners and the court decided in his favor. In Cork City one of the largest dry goods stores, which has its head­ quarters in Belfast, Was defendant in an action for profiteering brought by republicans and they won their case. At Kiltimagh the railway station master complained that a goods train had been raided and petrol stolen from It. When ft was proved that the petrol was not intended fcr the military but for private purchaseru, payment was made to the station master. The criminal trials are of every kind and it is claimed that in cases of theft the republican police are very successful in recovering the stolen property. Breaches of order In drinking shops are sererely dealt with and illegal attempts to obtain drink at prohibited hours are stern­ ly punished. Tn Shanklll. County Dublin, the republican police closed a drink shop where disorder occurred and in County Louth they have pro­ hibited all dancing In public houses. Illicit distilling is being everywhere suppressed.
