COURT APPEAL
ORGANIZED BY
SINN FEINERS
DUBLIN, Aug. 17 (by Associated
Press).—Sinn Fein is organizing, un
der the name of the Irish Republican
government, a supreme court of appeal
which when set up will complete the
system of tribunals so successful in
handling minor disputes for the past
months. The highest court of the Brit
ish government in Ireland has virtual
ly ceased to function because appeals
have been withdrawn and many lit
igants decline to recognize that it has
any authority whatever.
Arthur Griffith, the leader of Sinn
Fein in Ireland, told the Associated
Press, that it had not been decided
whether to have three or five judges
on the supreme bench nor had any
of the judges been selected.
“Our lower courts have been suc
cessful in checking the wave of crime
that was sweeping over Ireland a few
months ago,” said Mr. Griffith.
“Whatever may be said about the
Republican government by our ene
mies it must be and is admitted that
petty crime has been on the wane all
over the country since our courts be
gan to function. Naturally many of
the cases, both criminal and civil have
been appealed but we have no court
higher than a district court to which
we may take them. Appeal cases are
piling up and the need of a supreme
VUU1 t Xk3 XilV/i VWiOXX4{5 V T V/* J VXWJ .
“We do not anticipate any more
trouble with the military and police
..in holding meetings of the supreme
court than we have had in connection
with the lower ones. Now and then
an armed force prevents their being
held but in that case the court meets
again somewhere else. In no instance
have the troops and police permanent
ly prevented cases from being tried.”
The plan for forestalling British
judges and courts is very simple but
effective. When court is called men
summoned for jury service fail to ap
pear. Fines up to $500 have been
imposed on absentees. If the officers
arrest them and imprison them they
go on a hunger strike and subse
quently are released, hence, British
authorities have ceased to use im
prisonment as a weapon and their
courts are rapidly ceasing to function.
All officers of the Sinn Fein parish
district courts, are under the juris
diction of the department of justice
of the Irish republic.
Bach litigant in a civil action agrees
to abide by the decision and not to
take up the case in an “enemy court”
meaning a British institution in Ire
land. This agreement and the weight
of public opinion constitutes the power
of the new courts in civil cases. The
power in criminal cases lies with the
Irish volunteers, a force that is be
coming less and less secretive in its
activities. The courts are held in
public halls or in any place conven
ient and reports of the destruction
of the court houses of the British gov
ernment come in almost daily.
Sinn Fein has no prisons. Sentence
in more serious criminal cases and
the one most dreaded, is deportation,
usually to England. Penalities for
minor offences are usually a modifi
cation of the pillory system.

BOLSHEVIK! DO '
NOT MOLEST
JAP FISHERIES l
TOKIO Aug. 17 (by Associated
Press).—Japanese fisheries in South
Saghalien and the Russian Maritime
Province unmolested by the Bolsheviki
have been able to make good profits.
Fishing activities in that region are
in the hands of the Russo-Japanese
Fishing Company which is engaged in
catching cod, herring and salmon.
There are 13 fishing grounds in Sag
halien operated by approximately
3,500 fishers of this company. There
are thirteen steamers of over a thou
sand tons each operating in this re
gion and five others in Kamchatka,
while five canneries are run in both
districts. Herring fishing shows a de
crease this year, but that of crabs and
salmon promises to be highly satis
factory.
BANKERS’ ASSOCIATION
FAVORS FOREIGN TRADE
FINANCING CORPORATION
NEW YORK, Aug. 17 (by Associat
ed Press).—The organization of a
foreign trade financing corporation on
lines indorsed by the American Bank
er's Association and the selection of
John McHugh, New York banker, as
chairman of the board of directors of
the corporation, are urged by the ad
ministrative committee of the Ameri
can Banker’s Association in a resolu
tion just made public.
The purpose of this corporation will
be to maintain and develop foreign
markets for American products, ac
cording to a statement issued here by
William F. Collins, secretary of the as
sociation’s commerce and marine com
mittee, of which Mr. McHugh is chair
man.
With “amply sufficient” resources
and an efficient personnel, the state- |
ment continued, it is planned to enlist |
co-operation on a “wide and effective
scale” by banks of the country, ex
porters and importers, manufacturers
and producers generally.
The capitalization of the proposed
corporation for its organization may i
be $100,000,000, it was said and the
tentative date for its organization is
January 1, 1921.
Representation on the board of dir
ectors, the statement added, will re
flect stock subscriptions in the var- j
ious sections of the country; and the |
‘•corporation will give the foreign trade
interests of the different sections at
tention proportionate to their absorp
tion of the corporation’s debentures.
The personnel of the board of direc
tors and officers of the corporation ,
will not be announced until Mr. Mc
Hugh returns from Europe.
