MINORS, BREAK PACT
WITH MAJOR LEAGUES

Chicago, July 11.-An relations
between the major and minor base
ball leagues were definitely broken
of at a meeting today of a commit
tee representing the National As
ISOLATION of Minor Leagues. The
committee adopted resolutions rati-
flying the action taken at the joint
meeting with the major leagues In
New York last January when the
national agreement was abrogated.
The minor leagues will operate in
dependently of the major leagues
and will attempt to settle all dis
putes within their own organization
instead of appealing to the National
Commission for final decision or re-
view of any case.
The action of the minor league
committee means that the major
leagues will not be permitted TO
draft players this fall. Contracts
and territorial rights. however. will
be respected.

State Bureau Finds
Labor Shortage

Pennsylvania is on the verge of n
shortage Of unskilled labor, while
the situation as regards skilled labor
isebut little better. This is the gist
OF a report made public to-day by
Jacob Lightner, of the States Bu-
reau of Employment.
The desire of alien labor to leave
the country Is said to be playing a
big part in making employers seek
more unskilled labor and the de-
mand is growing until even the
steady influx of discharged soldiers
is not entirely meeting the situa-
ton.
Difficulty continues in placing
men in the kind of jobs they want,
For the week ending July 10 the
report shows that in Eastern Penn
sylvania employers asked for 2,12s
soldiers. Only 1.515 Of the 1,e4o SOL
diers sent them were engaged. In
Western Pennsylvania 22s soldiers
were given Jobs. Civilian records for
the eastern section show that 3,O57
jobs were open, that 2.10s appli-
cations were received and I'LL men
were hired. In the western section
employers wanted 1924 men and
only 2,018 were hired. There were
2,446 applicants.

AMERICANS TO
GET PROPERTY
Was Not Liquidated During
War, Says German
Official

Berlin, July 26-Germany has not
liquidated American private or bust
ness property. Clemens Won Del
bureck, acting Minister of Justice,
told the Associated Press corre-
spondent to-day. He declared that
Germany on March 4, 1912, issued
a ruling whereby the liquidation was
permitted because America already
had done the same.
While America carried out this
liquidation measure. the minister
said that Germany never did so, but,
or the contrary. merely regulated
and administered American prop
erty. When this administration is
removed the Americans will have
their free property again" said Herr
Won Delbrueck.
IN no single case has Germany
touched or violated American trade
