BASEBALL VAR HAS
BEEN DECLARED
Fight Against Ban Johnson Has Taken
Three American League Clubs
to the New League.

Chicago, Nov 9-Baseball war has
been declared. The fight, which began
last fall against President Ban johnson
of the American league, has taken
three American league clubs to the
new National league formed yesterday
To-day the war brought forth remins
cences of the last baseball war which
broke out in 1914 and lasted two years.
Early in 1914 the Federal league was
organized and was fought by the Ma
tional and American leagues and all
the minor leagues.
The cost Of that war never has been
stated by those involved, but is be-
lieved to have been between S3,000,0 900
and 100000.
The Federal league was organized
here with James Gilmore as president.
Charles Weegham and William Walk
er, both stockholders to-day in the
Cubs, were principal owners in the
Chicago Federal club. Phil Ball, now
owner of the st. Louis Browns, was
the principal hacker for the St. Louis
Federals.
Gilmore interested Robert Ward of

WILL DECIDE
Findings of the Board Not
Mandatory Expected
Public Sentiment Will
Compel Acceptance
Railroad Decides to Try
New Law = Official Says
They Are Good Ameri-
cans

WASHINGTON, March 2.-President
Wilson is preparing to set up the tribunal
provided in the railroad bill for consider
ing the wage demands of the 100000
railroad employees. 1t was announced at
the White House today that he was
writing to the unions and railroad com
panies asking that they nominate repre-
sentatiyes to the wage board.
Under the law the unions name six
representatives and the roads six. From
each of these groups the President will
select three and in addition he will name
three representatives of the public The
board of nine as thus constituted will be
subject to senate approval. Decisions Of
the board will be by majority vote pro
vided one of the majority is of the pub
lie group.
The law does not make acceptance of
the findings mandatory on either the
workers or the roads, but members Of
congress during debate on the measure
expressed the belief that public opinion
would compel acceptance.
Representatives of the brotherhood.
still are meeting in Washington consid
ering the Presidents reply to their wage
demands in which he promised, that il
the new law did not provide for tri
bunal for settlement of wage controver
sizes, he would use his efforts to have
board appointed. In asking the president
to veto the railroad bill the railroad mel
said the machinery set up by law woulc
result in delay of many months in tn
settlement of their demands.

ESQ BEER LAW IN
WISCONSIN UPHELD
Federal Judge Holds State Statute Is
Valid and Volstead Act
Unconstitutional.

MILWAUKEE, March 2.-Manufacture
and sale of $50 per cent beer in Wiscon-
sin, under the terms of the Mulberger
yesterday in a decision by Federal Judge
Ferdinand A. Geiger, who denied the
petition of federal officials to dismiss iniunc-
ton proceedings instituted against them
by the Manitowoc Products Company, a
consolidation of three breweries at Mani
towoc. The Products Company sued for
the injunction to restrain the federal Of
ficials from interfering with it in the sale
and manufacture of $50 per cent beer
Ill the state.
In his decision Judge Geiger upholds the
Mulberger law, thus assuming that state
prohibition laws take precedence over the
federal regulation. Judge Geiger, in his
decision, also states that an injunction or
der will be issued within 20 days
unless the case is carried to the United
States supreme court and there reversed.
Judge Geiger's opinion held that sec
tion /, title ,, of the Volstead act was
unconstitutional; also since the constitu-
tional amendments prohibited only intox-
icating liquors, neither congress nor the
state Legislature had the power to define
the word intoxicating liquor 50 as to in
clude beverages mountaineering III TACT
The decision on this point says: The
act in question insofar as it defines OF
attempts to define Intoxicating liquors by
including real non-intoXicants cannot be

FORCING DISCHARGE

Commander D'Olier De-
clares the Organization
Doesn't Want Bonus
ASSISTANCE FOR
THE UNFORTUNATE
Large Majority of Ex-Service Men Be
lieve Disabled Men Should Not Be
Objects of Private Charity - Would
Not Hurt General Welfere.

WASHINGTON, March 2.-Franklin
D'Oher national commander Of the Ameri-
can Legion, outlining to the house ways
and means committee today the organiza-
tons demands for soldier relief legislation
declared it wanted no bonus but assistance
for former service men in overcoming
present financial disadvantages.
All the Legion asks. he told the com
mittee' is as liberal treatment as is con-
sistent with the welfare Of the whole
country
An overwhelming majority OF ex-sery-
ice men feel strongly that this govern
ment owes an obligation to all persons
who were handicapped either bodily or
financially, the national commander de-
clared, adding that disabled men wanted
relief legislation, TO the end that they
would no longer be objects Of private
charity
Recommendation for legislation were
presented as follows: Land settlement
covering farms in all states; aid to en-
courage purchase of homes; vocation
al training and adjustment of compen-
sation based on length of service for
those not desiring to avail themselves
of the other three features.
THE American Legion, the ma
tional commander said, tasks nothing
in its selfish interest at the expense of
the country, but at the same times does
not feel that this obligation to ex-serv-
ice men and women should be alto
gether passed by at this time and all
economizing done at the expense of
the eX-service man.
IF legislation is wisely framed Gov
ering land settlement, home aid and vo-
cational training every dollar invested
by the government viii bring until
matelv great returns to the country by
making the ex-service man better
citizen and greater producer.
More than 30 bills relating to bonuses
were before the committee. The com
mittee finally got into a row over pro
, cedure and broke up in some confusion
after members had repeated charges
made in the house, that the measures
had been sent to the committee foI
burial. After many heated exchanges
| between members the committee or
| dered the room cleared of the crowd OF
spectators and then in executive ses.
sion finally decided to continue hear
| ings tomorrow.

General Pershing indicated that he
would favor retention of most of the ma
tional army cantonments and also of nj
trate and other plants for the manufac-
ture of materials needed by the army in
times of war. He said, however, that
these should be maintained on an eco
nomical basis.
There is strong sentiment throughout
the United States in favor of universal
service of some kind, he said, based on
recognition of the benefits of the train
