Chicago. April 6-Prcsident Johnson
of the American league has taken Off
clal cognizancc of Attorney Howard
Gritiiths' attempt to get the minor
leagues to break away from the ma
tlohal agreement Mr. JohnsOu's atten-
ton has been called to Mr.. Griffiths'
missionary work in the south oStcUSibIv
in behalf Of the National association of
minor Leagues. The Jersey CITY man
nm interviews and conferences with SOUrh-
trh league magnateS, asserted that It
was the purpose Of the National asSo-
cation to make war on tho American
league because the latter refused TO ac-
cepl the drafting rules iudoTsed by the
National lea que.
President Johnson. a~ soon a. rroofs
OF Gritfiths' doiugs in the south and
east reached him, wrote to Chairman
hermann Of the national COMMITTEE
proposing that Griffuhs be called to ac-
count for his alleged efforts to disrupt
the organization of which all leagues
are a party. There has been consider
able correspondence on the subject be
tween Hermann and Johnson, but no
final action has been taken.
IN his letter to Hermann, johnson
made il plain that the American league
would under no circumstances permit
Attorney GrlffithS to carry on open or
secret warfare against the American
league The head of the American
league regards Griffiths' work as treach-
cry to organized baseball and called at
tentiOn to an interview with the attorney
where the latter had stated that he had
John T Brush and Barney DreyfuSs
back of him in his effort to riddle" the
American league
The Cincinnati magnate in his answer
said he did not think that Grifdths cam
palgn against the American league war
ranted any action. but to this President
Johnson replied that he considered the
welfare of the game demanded the eX-
pulSiOn of GriffithS from the National
association Final action in the matter
may be taken in "A few days.

but finally she decided to take the
matter in her own hands.
She had not done all the reading

~versation affording the desired OPP
