Londis |fCzar',,
 Says LasUyer

Judge Landis was labeled a Czar by former Magistrate Emil Fuchs for his attitude in keeping Benny INauff from making a Iiv- jug in professional baseball after he had been hOnOrably acquitted of the charges against hiln. He insisted Judge Landis' action ysaS simply boycott against Kauff and that Kauff's services to the Giants were worth $50, 900 for the year.
 The slam against Eandis was made in the Supreme court hearing yesterday in New York when Kauff lost his suit to enjoin the Nery York National League Club and Judge LandiS from keeping him out of professional baseball.
 With his last legal effort g fail ure Kauff's only avenue of rein statement is at the hands of Lan- dis.

Warming To Athletes

it is the plan and aim Of the Amateur Athletic Union to stamp out this practice. Most of the amateur athletes and the public do not understand the rules gov erning athletes expenses. The rule states: any amateur athlete may demand his or her railroad fare to and from home to place where he or her are to compete including the necessary meals and when 1t is necessary to stay over his or her hotel bill to be included. In enforcing this rule the Amateur Athletic Union feles that it will have a far-reaching effect to prevent athletes from being tainted with professional ism; and look forward for the cooperation of every club in the Amateur Athletic Union of the United States to stamp out this evil.
 Yours very truly,
 EDWARD F. HURLEY.

 Howe came to this city in the mid dle of the 1921 season from the Vir- gfnfa league. It was thought at the time that Howe had merely been loaned to Waterbury by the Yankees as he was tired of playing in the south and wanted a change.

ANOTHER HOOVER ATTACK
Senator Watson Assails Secrctary's
Food Administration Record.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Senator
Watson, democrat, Georgia. renewed
today in the senate his attacks on
Secretary Hoovers administration of
war relief organizations and charged
him with having aided in efforts to
overthrow the soviet and restore the
czaristic government in Iussia. He
asserted that Mr.. Hoover had caused
a shipping board steamer, COM
manded by Captain James B. Mar
tin, TO transport a cargo OF military
motor trucks and supplies from
Bordeaux 30 the northern army in
Russia to be used in General Yuden-
itch's offensive agains, the soviets.
Referring to the recent White
House statement in defense of Mr..
Hoover, Mr.. Watson inquired why
the secretary was above criticism.
He also reiterated the charge that
Mr.. Hoover had not published de-
tailed statements of the war relief
expenditures and also that allega-
t!ons that food intended to go to
stricken peoples of Europe had been
permitted to decay on wharves or
in vessels through alleged lack OF
proper administration.
