DEMANDS
CHANGES IN LEAGUE
OF NATIONS TERMS

The Hague, Thursday, Feb. 19.-De-
creased armament, speedy institution
of a permanent high court of justice
and immediate admission of all civii-
lied nations desiring to enter, were
demands attached to 4the resolution
passed today by the second chamber
of thee Dutch parliament approving
Hollands entrance into the league or
nations.
During the debate 1t was explained
that these demands did not consi-
tute reservations, as reservations were
not permitted but were suggestions
that the Dutch government would en-
ter with the idea of having these prin-
ciples adopted. Further procedure is
considered mere routine, as the first
chamber will certainly approve the
motion.
In connection with the delay or
America to enter the league it is learn
ed that several European neutral
states which up to some few weeks ago
were inclinedto wait for the final de-
cision of America have since decided
1t was desirable to hasten their en-
trance regardless of any action by the
United States

Onions Inspire
Circuit Court to
Strong Actions

Onions, Bermudas and otherwise,
have been the burden of four civil
suits entered on Marion county cir
cult court records within the past
four months. The latest "onion act
ion is involved in the case of Mark
s. Aspinwall of Brooks, against Man
|gis brothers, Salem.
The suit is peculiar In one phase,
in that the severe weather of Decem-
Der. 1919. is one Of the factors In the
action against the Salem commission
firm. Mr. Aspinwall claims on Octo-
Der 20, 1919, he entered into a con-
tract calling for the sale and deliv-
OF No, l onions. According to Mr..
Aspinwall's complaint, he was able
and willing to deliver these onions
at the time the contract was made;
however, he alleges that the defend
ant firm deferred his deliveries un-
til December 1, when he was pei,nit-
ted to deliver 195 sacks OF the vege-
tables.
After the delivery of the 1876 sacks
or 1878 pounds Of the tear bring
ers; Aspinwall claims that the Sa-
lem firm refused to accept the bal
ance Of the onions and that this ana
other delays imposed by the defend
ants caused destruction by frost OF
all Of the onions. except about so
sacks. Aspinwall claims that he made
ovarv afforf IN disnoqQ Of HIS stored
onions but that he was unable to do
so before the frosts Sc. in.
AS a first cause of action, the plain
tiff asks for $2S4.S2 as payment for
the first deliveries, claiming that the
defendants have only paid s168S5
Of the s403.08 due as the contract
value of the onions at $2.1s per hun
dred pounds. As second cause OF
action. the sum Of $772.5O is demand
ed as representing the value Of the
unaccepted portion Of the contract.

The platform says in part:
''The republican party of the state
of New York reaffirms its unyieldins
devotion to the constitution of the
United States and to the guarantees
of civil. political and religious liberty
therein contained 1t will resist all at
tempsto overthrow the foundations Of
the government or to weaken the force
of its controlling principles and ideals,
whether these attempts be made in the
form of international policy or or to-
nestle agitation.
Reservations Favored,
1--WE favor the immediate ratifica-
tion of the pending treaty of peace
with such distinct reservations and
declarations as shall make it clear to
all the world that the United States
retains its unconditional rights to
withdraw from the league of nations
on proper notice, that the United
States assumes no obligation, either
legal or moral, to send American SOL
diers or sailors for service abroad un-
less the congress in the exercise or its
constitutional power, shall so author
ize and direct; that the Monroe doc
trine is protected both in letter and
spirit that no foreign power or council
of foreign powers shall have any con-
troll whatsoever over the domestic pU'-
icies of the United States; and that
the government and the people of the
United States shall not be drawn, by
the operation of the treaty the So
called labor treaty into net spread by
international socialism.
ARTICLE 10 of the covenant for a
league Of nations, in it's original form,
cannot and should not be ratified by
the senate or accepted by the people
of the United States To do so, would
not contract away control by the Amer
lean people or their own policies ana
acts but would certainly embroil the
country in an endless succession of
wars, great and small.
Propose High Court 81.
1--WE believe that the proposed cove
nant for league of nations Is gravely
defective in that it attempts to sub
stitute discussion instead of the rule
Of Jaw, for force in the settlement of
international differences. We declare
tito be the policy of the republican
party, when the treaty of peace is
ratified promptly to take steps for the
institution of an international high
