/ i Hl i i PAGE EIGHT y, v 7 SI9MARCK DAILY TRIBUNB TUESDAY, JUNE 22, 1920 WAR PLANS SEEN IN CHILE'S ACT IN SHIP PURCHASE South American Republic Buys Dreadnought and Two Fast British Destroyers CONTROVERSY WITH PERU Buenos Aires, June 22.—Purchases by Chile of the British dreadnaught Canada and two British destroyers is regarded by diplomatic circles here as an indication that events are moving swiftly toward a definite conclusion of the Tacna-Arica controversy between Chile and Peru. This dispute has long threatened the peace of South Amer- ica.. It is considered that such an in- cerase in Chile’s naval power must have an important bearing on the set- tlement of the international disput for the possesison of the port of Arica now held by Chile but claimed by both Peru and Bolivia. While Chile’s naval forces already exceed those of Peru, it is pointed out that the acquisition at this time of three fighting ships would constitute a powerful argument to enforce a set- tlement of the differences between the |- two nations over the title to the two Pacific provinces. Peru’s seaports, naturally, would be at the mercy of Chile in any resort to arms. No Arbitration, Purchase of the vessels at this time is believed in some quarters to be es- pecially significant in view of a widely held opinion that the Tacna-Arica dis- pute will reach a defjnite crisis with- in a year. Well informed observers} say Peru will likely seek a settlement of the question before the league of na- tions of which she is a member. She is unable to reach an agreement with Chile on the long delayed plebiscite which was to determine the sovereign- ty of the provinces and the opinion is held here that she can expect no arbi- trai aid from the United States owing to the fact that the American gov ment in a recent note to Chile ed a policy of “non-intervention’ the ‘Tacna and Arica case. H Chile, on the other hand, will resist | interference by the League of Nations, it 18 believed, having unequivocally made her position clear in a reply to a note of the United States saying that she will not accept intervention} “from any power or powers.” Chile’s position is that under the terms of the treaty of Ancon, her rights are soj clear that there is nothing to arbi- trate. H Will Hasten Dispute. Consequently, it is predicted that Chile will hasten the dispute to a con- | clusion before it reaches the stage of consideration by the League of Na- tions, with the idea of presenting the league with an accomplished fact, thus forestalling Peru’s attempt to gain an} arbitration. This “accomplished fact,” it is as- serted, would be the cession to Bo- livia of the port of Arica in return pre- sumably for certain compensations. Whatever may be the official atti- tude of the Chilean government and notwithstanding its repudiation of Pe-) ruvian charges that it has instigated (Bolivia against |Peru, it is a well known fact in South America that Chile's publicists and statesmen are entirely in sympathy with Bolivian aspirations for an outlet to the Pacific. It is not regarded as strange, therefore, that predictions are heard that when the Tacna-Arica controversy comes to a crisis, it will be seen that Chile is sup- porting Bolivia's claims. STATE’S GRAIN ACT VALID | |livery of the property to the pur- ! which the property is shipped. (Cases "| bers and’ wholesalers.” its part to ship the grain which it purchases to points in Minnesota, puts it under the protection of the commerce clause of the Mederal Con- stitution. In making this contention counsel have failed, to distinguish be- tween the police power of the state and the interstate commerce power of the nation. They cite cases which hold that when there has been a previous transportation of property in interstate commerce, the one who has transported it, as an incident of such transportation, also has the right to sell the property jn the state to which he has transported it, and that right down to the time of de- chaser, is exempt from the taxing and police power of the state into cited). Plaintiff, however, can have no such exemption. It is engaged in buying grain. No act of transporta- tion in interstate commerce precedes that buying to which it can be at- tached as an incident. The ony feature of interstate commerce that precedes the buying is the intellec- tual intent of the plaintiff to ship its grain in interstate commerce. That does not protect it from either the taxing or police power of the | state. This has been the uniform holding of the Supreme Court. (Here a number of cases are cited.) “The line which gives to personal property the protection of the intei- state commerce clause is Clearly ‘stated in Hammer vs. Dagenhart, 247 U. S., 251, 272: “When the commerce begins is determined not by the char- acter of the commodity, nor by the intemtion of the owner to transfer it to another state for sale, nor by his appropriation of it for transportation, but by its actual delivery to a common car- rier for transportation, or the actual commencement of its transfer to another state.’ “Until plaintiff's property crossed the line so accurately defined by the above language, it was subject to the police power of North Dakota, This must be so. Otherwise the entire ‘business of buying personal property of every kind would pass beyond state authority simply by the intent of the buyer to transport it to another state. That intent applies not only to the purchase of grain, cotton and livestock, but to nearly all merchandise purchased by job- MAN SUCCUNBS IN MINNESOTA John Haley, Well Known Thru- out Slope County, Dies After Long Illness Jonn Hatey, veteran Bismarck news- paper man, is dead at Duluth, a tele. gram announcing his death being re- ceived by Joseph L. Kelley, his halt- brother. Mr. Haley went to Dulth to the home of his brother William, a week ago Thursday, where he died yester- day morning.
