''The Origin of the American League
By Ban johnson in Baseball Magazine for June.

, ers under contract to major league
clubs are not discontinued, as they
were when the American league as
serted its independence and invaded
National league territory.
Press and public welcomed rs in
every city and ball players greeted US
as liberatOrs We succeeded from the
start because Of the splendid support
accorded 10 us by baseball enthusiast
in all walks Of life. who realized tnat
we had q mission, the failure Of which
would have a disastrous effect on their
faVOrite sport. That widespread Sent-
ment was the American leagues most
valuable asset throughout the war
period.
Cost Of Baseball Grows.
The gross capital of the American
league in 1901, plus the resources OF
all its clubs. would not equal the value
Of the 1912 holdings Of several Of its
individual clubs The aggregate
amount expended in financing the
with the National league would not
suffice TO equip one club up to 1912
standard OF either of the leading organ
izatiOns Of the country. Moreover,
promoters. although provided with
ample funds, would discover that there
is no demand for a third league The
system under which the American
league is operated is not understood
by the public Our methods vary little
in theory from those set forth in the
constitution Of every national agree
ment league. We insist on the strict
observance Of the spirit as wei as OF
the letter OF our laws, and absolutely
require our club owners to regard the
welfare OF the league paramount TO
the interests Of the Individual clubs.
Our umpires are the representatives
Of the league and must observe instruc-
lions in the discharge Of their duties.
I exercise extreme care in the selec-
ton Of my staff and when I find
competent official I give him substan-
tial evidence Of the appreciation OF
the league and Of myself
The Foundation of It All.
The National commission is the ce-
ment Of the baseball structure Its
province is to compel every league
under the National agreement TO obey
the fundamental laws Of the game, TO
require club owners TO respect the
rights Of each other. to insure to
every player fair treatment and to af-
ford TO the salaried man prompt and
adequate redress for wrong.
The relative playing strength and
popularity or the rival major leagues
would not be determined by the ex-
preston Of my opinion. Suffice it
TO say that the status Of the American
league in its playing department and
its patronage is highly satisfactory
10 my associates and myself. and that
we are confident that another worlds
championship viii be played TO the
credit OF the American league as a
result OF the 1912 ceries.
