WOULD MEAN THE
 MINORS FROM O. B.
"Fielder" Jones' Task Not Only to Manage Sloufeds,
 But to Gather Minors.

New York, Sept. 3.-Fielder Jones has been signed up supposedly 10 de- vote his services exclusively to the management of the St. Louis Falerals But the real job that confron-s the old White Sox leader is said to 1e that of attempting to win the minor leagues from the embrace of Organ ized baseball and getting them to J-- hands with the Feds
 Jones, proceeding about his mis- sion probably will carry an olive branch in one hand and buldgeon in the other. The minors who think it a wiser plan to spurn the o,.Ye branch and to stick to Johnson Herr mann, ct all, will then be made to feel the sting of the club
 Jones probably vii poinet out to the minor leaguers that if they come over to the Feds they will of course, no longer be subject to Federal raids. The Feds will engage to buy young minor league stars at prices cGu-. ,o that which they csould ge. fer them if they sold them to the American or National leagues.
 | raid you," will be the first of the Jones ultimatum. eff we raid we'll take your best players and you ~-on t get a dollar for them because we'll deal direct with the players.
 Come with us and well guaran- tee you Our fullest protection. And wel'll keep our word, which is some thing more than the big powers in baseball have done. The National Agreement, of which every big and little oraginzaed league in the coun- try is part provides that in times of trouble the, ,big ,fteH9ws must stand by you. Have tiey.r done sl4ls2 Have they. helped you, The .Federals have raided you, taken your best players and caused you to suffer big losses. without the big fellows raising a hand in your defense

year for three years, and In adGi- tiOn, a $50,0O0 block of the St. Louis Federal stock. Should he succeed in causing some of the minor leagues to jump to the Feds he will haze n4ore than earned his sala.y. The minor leagues act as the foundation that supports the Ame cican and National leagues. Without them ihe two big leagues could not exist.
 The minors develop the young players and the big leagues sra5 them off when they are ripe and place them in their own rank to take the place of their fading stars. If the American and Natiorti ieagles could not get players from the minors their leagues soon would die Of decay, ur players themselves-a costly pro- cess.
 Of course, if some of the minor leaguers went over to the Feds the American and National leagues could do just what the Feds have been dojng-raid the leagues. But such a plan would be most distasteful to them. They get most of the minor leaguers now via the draft route, pay ing only $500 for them. and if they dealt with the player direct they would have to pay him sum in ex- cess of that $500 to outbd the Feds
 Much depends upon Jones initial effort along the lines of converting the minor leagues to the Federal faith. Should he succeed in getting one or two of the fairly big minors to jump it seems certain that John- son and his crowd will be glad to make immediate peace overtures. They would then realize that the jumping of one league foreshadows the jumping of others, and the loss of the small leagues would cripple them beyond cure.

Osborn says. that Congress did not intend
that such organizations should come with

through an oversight. and the result is
that they are taxable.
This new turn to the income tax came
about when a member of a law firm that

Washington for ruling. stating that the
club pays no dividends and is not con-
Quoted for profit.
Commissioner Osborn's ruling, made
public today by the law firm. was that
there is no provision in the law for the
exemption OF any organization except
those specifically mentioned.
All returns under the law must he

officers and bookkeepers of social clubs,

Indications are that the matter of the

in conference with Secretary Bryan on
the subject.
When this subject was laid over by
Congress at the previous session the Sen

porate i'll the treaty a provision for the
establishing of Il virtual protectorate over
Nicaragua by the United States by suar-
anteeins the national debt and applying
the principle of the Platt amendment, un-
der Which the United States acts in the
affairs of Cuba.
1t is understood to be the attitude of
the administration, however, that when
