NEW YORK. Jan. i6-Today the min
or leagues were expected to start some
thing in baseball that II their chal-
lenge is accepted win make the recent
Federal League battle look like an old
home week.
In the conglomeration Of baseball
pow-wows, the American League held
the center early today. Later the two
big leagues were TO 50 into session and
the minors were 10 present their de-
mands to the Joint sessions
II the terms OF an ultimatum decided
upon by the minors are not accepted
by 6 D. m. tomorrow, the minors de-
clare they will scatter the bones OF
the astlonal agreement 10 the lou"
winds and 90 their own way. Base
ball today faced:
First-A big league salary limits OF
sii, 900 monthly, exclusive Of managers
salary. already adopted by the NaJlonal.
Seeond-A player limit OF no more
than twenty-five, possibly twenty.
Third-A national commission OF nve
members.
Fourth-Abolition OF the major
league perogative OF recalling minor
league players after the season opens.
Fifth-Abolltion Of the major league
draft privilege.
These are the most important OF the
radical changes sweeping slowly anil
surely toward the national game. The
National League already has placed its
approval on the reduced salary and
player limits. II also has approved the
non recall, probably with a view or
supplying some alternative rather than
loss Of draft privilege.
The minor leagues have projected the
proposed five-man commission and
will present It 10 the two majors with
the understanding, however, that this is
not a demand and is only a tentative
plan. They consider Il a good scheme
to include the two presidents OF the big
leagues. the head Of the national asso-
citation and two disinterested members.
They want also a national board, COM
posed OF three members. 10 take care OF
differences between the majors and
minors. These, however. s-e only sug-
gestions.
Demands OF the minors ncluoe
stipulation that the majors be permit
ted 20 purchase one man from each
class AA club, with the further proyi-
sion that II he Is found wanting can
be turned back for $500.
These changes, the minors declare,
are necessary TO save them from ami
hilation. The present draft arrange
ment, which Is only slightly different
from -purchase-one-man"
idea, allows $500 for each man drafted
from IA leagues. The draft elimina-
ton, minors contend, will DO ,swas
with the farming" practise so p-eVa-
lent now.
The drastic nature OF the demands
probably forecasts a decision OF the
big leaguers 10 reject them completely
with a break in the game that will re-
suit in a great war. Major leaguers, ]
in fact, have threatened to allow the
break and establishing new minors 10
feed their teams. Il IS believed certain |
that some agreement regarding player |
and salary limits must have been reach
ed between American and National |
Leagues, otherwise there would not
have been such revolutionary action on
by the National.

WASHINGTON, Jan. i6-Secreta-y OF
The Treasury Glass viii urge reopenins
OF the bond conversion privilege for
Liberty bonds Of the second and third
issued when he submits his recommen-

Glass said:
Under the terms OF the contract with

1918, six months after II arose. Every
effort was made by Secretary McAdoo

version privilege and Its approaching
expiration and that privilege renamed

PACKING PARCELS.

II more care were exercised in packing and mark
ing parcels intended for shipment by express. j;
would mean a saving of about a million dollars
month. in which express companies and shippers
would share, say nothing OF the saving time
and temper which are usually lost in the process
adjusting claims.
A package which is TO reach its destination
promptly in good condition must be prepared
properly for its journey.
only new sound containers should be used; old
ones do not stand the strain and frequently
entirely to pieces. or burst open enough reveal
their contents making them liable to damage or
theft.
Paper wrappings if used at all. should be stout
and clean.
No old labels writings should appear any

THESE suggestions come from the claim agent Of

packages are of all sizes weights and shapes, and
while the company may do the best in load
