FARMING" is NOT
FAIR TO PLAYERS
Fultz Argues in Letter to August
Hermann for Change in
Present System.

New York. June 4.-Some of the rea-
sons why baseball players in the big
leagues want to change the system UNI
der which they are farmed out to minor
League clubs mt salaries less than is
called for in their original contracts
are contained in letter written by
David L. Fultz. president of the Base
Ball Players Fraternity. to August
Hermann. chairman OF the National
Commission, and made public to-day
There can be no intelligent denial"
reads Mr.. Fultz's letter, "of the sound
ness OF the principle that so long as
the player Is held under a signed con-
tract he must receive the salary his
contract calls for. The common prac-
tice of forcing men to go to other
teams and allowing these teams arbi-
trarily to cut their salaries can have
neither legal nor moral Justification.
YOU say after the player lis trans
ferred 1t is n question of negotiation
between him and his new owner How
can 1t be question of negotiation
when the player is compelled by your
regulations to sign with one particu-
lar team or quit his profession? There
can be no negotiation when one party
is absolutely at the mercy of the other;
II then becomes question of durcss.
When the situation is reversed and
the major league recruit plays far bet
Ter bail than he is expected to, he can't
welch on his agreement and refuse to
play until he gets more money. Why.
mon, should the owner have the right
to withdraw from his contract when
ne mas his bargain is not quite as
good as he eXDected ."
