CALLS BASEBALL TRUST:
INVESTIGATION ASKED

Washington, March 12.-Profes-
sionaI baseball is about to be inves-
tigated. Contending that the ma
ticnal pastime as now conducted is
controlled by a trust, no different in
the main from any of the big trusts,
Representative Charles Gallagher OF
Chicago has introduced a resolution
asking for an inquiry. The resolu-
ton. which calls for a special COM
mittee of seven members, was re-
ferred 20 the committee on rules.
Special political significance is Civ
en- by a suggestion in the resolution
that the department of justice bestir
itself against the interests which
dominate the baseball situation in
this country. Charles P. Taft
brother of the president, is known
as the principal owner of the players
and equipment of the Cubs National
league team in Chicago, and consc
uuently one of the big factors il
baseball.
Everybody from the nations frs
citizen down to the kid playing bal
on the sand lots is affected by the
baseball trust" said Mr.. Gallaghel
concerning his resolution. Baseball
| is not classed as a necessity of life
but there are thousands of fans whC
would rather do without bread AM
butter than without their ball game
The amusements of the American PEG
pie are cherished and when an illega
combination is formed to monopoliz
and control them action should b
taken against it the same as agains
food, steel or money trust.
mo other combination in tn
country is so bold as the baseball
trust. 1t has a system of contract
and releases which are blacklists pur
and simple. a player who wants t
become professional must meet it
terms or be barred from playing. H
cannot even select a preference as t
what team he plays with. To TIL
trust human beings are so many cha
tells, valued according to their abilit
as ball playing machines"
