ACTION OF MAJORS
AROUSES SUSPICION
Minors Fail to Grasp Why Heydler
and johnson Backed Down
on Agreement.

New York Jan. 25.-The need for a
written agreement between the major
leagues and the minor leagues now
that each is going it's own way was
emphasized yesterday when differ
ence of opinion cropped up in a state
ment made by John a. Heydler, presi-
dent of the National league, and an
other made by Lieut.. David l.. Fultz,
president of the new International
league.
In a letter to Baltimore newspa-
per man explaining the reason why
the two major league presidents did
not consider it important to sign the
tentative agreement at this time Mr..
Heydler said in part:
i consider that our verbal agree
ment is now in full force and effect,
and I'm going along on that line.
My understanding is that the
national agreement has been ter
minated, that the National association
will operate along independent lines
and that the minor leagues and the
major leagues will respect the rights
of each.
In view of this we are no longer
obliged to ask waivers of Glass "A
and Glass a leagues on players clubs
wish to dispose of, and consequently
I've stopped asking such waivers. We
are now going our way and they their
way"
Herein there is a misunderstanding
Lieut.. Fultz is of the opinion that the
national agreement is still in force
and will not be terminated until
either the tentative agreement or a
final working agreement is approved
and signed by both parties.
This bears out the announcement
made by August Hermann at the
close Of the joint meeting last week,
but apparently it was not understood
by all concerned, as John Heydler is
the last man to operate in bad faith.
He simply does not understand that
the national agreement is still in
force, and there are others who do
not understand it either
Under the circumstances the sooner
the minor league committee of seven,
appointed to draft working agree
ment. is organized the better it will
be for all concerned. AS things now
are, complications are bound to arise
which will make it harder later to
reach an understanding even with
both sides acting in good faith.
