Lands SLUCS
GREAT SLUCCER

Chicago, Dec. 5.-The bad news
for Babe Ruth, worlds champion home
run hitter with the New York Yam
KEGS, broke today.
Ruth was fined his worlds series
prize, amounting to $3,362.26, and sus-
pended untol May 20 of the 1922 sea-
son by Judge Lands, commissioner of
baseball. for participating in exhibi-
ton games following the close Of the
worlds series.
Outiielder Bob Meuscl and Pitcher
William Piercey, also members of the
pennant winning Yankees, who par
ticipated in the transforming trip
with Ruth, drew substantially the
same penalty. Piecher Picrcey's fine
was $lO0 less than the other two
players, as his share of the worlds
seriese was that much less than the
ether players.
The suspension of Ruth for at least
the first month Of the American
league pennant race practically
means, baseball observers pointed out
tonight, that the New York sluggcr
will have little chance of breaking his
home run record next season. Under
the ruling Ruth may apply for rcin-
statement May 20.
The decision which, in the baseball
world, rests as the most import ant
Judge Lands has made sine. he be-
came commissioner, was made after
two months dclibcration. After the
players gave up their tour. Judge
Lands sent each questionnaire ask
ing their reasons for violating the
rules of organized baseball.
The rule, enacted in 1911. forbids
member of a team competing in
the worlds championship Sc les from
participating in any exhibition games
after the close of the series. Ruth
replied to the questionable, but neith-
er of the others answered it.
Judge Laadis, in his decision. said
the offending players "wilfully and
definitely violated the rule and that
the situation involved not merely rule
violation" but rather mintuous def

GERMANY GAINS
MORE TIME

Paris, Dec. 5 (By the Associated
Press).-Germany will probably be
granted three years delay in her
cash idemnity payments, the Asso-
ciated Press is informed from the
most reliable source. Negotiations
are now on between reparations Of
fic.rs of France and Great Britain
| and the responsible officials of both
countries virtually agree that Ger
many must be given breathing
spell. All that remains to be done is
to work out a scheme acceptable to
both countries.
The suggestion of three year
moratorium has been abandoned at
the earnest solicitation of France.
The French representative explained
pecially offensive to the French peo-
pie in connection with the idemnity
inasmuch as it was understood as
meaning complete suspension of pay
ments of all kinds.
The greatest progress has been
made in the last few days in bring.
ing the French and British view
points together; the result of this
progress has been the decision to give
Germany chance to regain a nor
NAL status.
No Future Evasion.
The reparations holiday can no;
be used by Germany as a means of
evading all future payments of idem~
nifty, French officials explained, but
it is being considered so that Ger
many will be better able at the end
of two or three years to fulfill her
reparation obligations, and she then
must be prepared to pay in full a
reasonable idemnity."
The whole problem will be formally
placed before the reparations com
mission when the German reply to
tn last reparation note is received
probably at the end of this week. In
the meantime the officials are work
ing hard to reach a common plan o
action. Numerous suggestions are
under consideration. One, which 81
receiving considerable French sup
port, involves a written guaranty by
Bermany that:
G) The budget will be balanced;
(2) no capital shall be exported to
foreign countries; l3l there shall be
no policy of retaining capital in for
eign countries; (4) the raising of a
loan, portion of which is to go to
the reparations commission; (5) con
tinuation and probable increase dur
ing the period of delay of payments
i nkind.
Allied Control Body.
Such a plan would set up an allied
control commission in Berlin to su
pervise budgetary reforms and hav"
broadening powers to effect other fin
ancial changes.
1t is declared that there are no
longer any insurmountable Difficult
ties between the two countries on the
reparations policy. Officials repre-
senting France and Germany, who
are in a position to know the real
facts, understand that Germany can
not meet the payments beyond those
scheduled for January and February
next. AS to these, France is no:
greatly concerned, for it is asserted
under the allied agreement, France
is not to receive one Cnt of cash in
volvd in these installments.
The Associated Press is informed
that the supreme council probably
will consider the new situation ere
ated at meeting to be held within
five or six weeks, when France prob
ably will make formal demand for
a new distribution of the first bullion
Of the idemnity paid last August.
