MINORS Reject
RESTORATION Of
DRAFT PROPOSAL
nv The Associated Press

Chicago, Jan. 25.--Club owners
Of the American association today
declined to enter into any draft
agreement with the major leagues.
The proposal for the restoration
of the draft, carrying with 1t a
price of $500 for each player
drafted was unanimously voted
down. The major leagues, IL they
desire to obtain star players from
the American association, will
have to purchase them outright.
The proposal to amend the
agreement between the major and
minor leagues relating to the
draft came from Judge lands,
commissioner of baseball; Presi.
dent Heydler of the National
league and Ban Johnson, of the
American league constituting the
baseball advisory council. Judge
Lands held that restoration OF
the draft was necessary so. that
baseball players should advance
in their profession.
The American association mag
mates, however. declined to accept
the proposal. They declared that
thew could obtain a better price
for any stars developed by selling
them rather than being forced tt
accept the $500 draft price.
The American association is the
second of three class IA leagues
to reject the proposal. the Pacific
Coast league having voted II
down several DAYS ago.

Russia Looks
To Harvest for
Her Freedom
Rr CHARLES NJ. MCCAIN

BY CHARLES NJ. MCCAIN
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
LONDON, July 11.-A successful
Russian harvest this summer will
mean that Russia's affairs will be set
tied next year by a conference, not at
the Hague or another outside capital.
but at Moscow, according ito the Off
cial Soviet view.
Reports to Soviet headquarters here
indicate that the harvest will be sue
cessful-successful enough to dispel
the black cloud of famine that has
overhung the country,
"If the reports are borne out, as I
believe they will be-" a high Soviet
official said to United Press, "our or
deal is overs We shall be able to feed
all our people and have a surplus for
export. Then we shall take our place
again, self-Tespectingly, among the
nations of Europe"
Soviet delegates believe that the
Genoa conference accomplished moth
ing, and that the forthcoming con-
ference at the Hague will be of no
value. They believe, in the first place,
that the French will not attend it.
Children Play Genoa
"As to the Genoa conference" the
United Press was told. 'its only result
in Moscow has been that the children
in the streets are playing Genoa con-
ference They have a good time, but
cannot always find anyone willing to
play the role of M. Barthou.'
The official view at Moscow of the
Genoa and Hague conference is given
in dispatch to Soviet headquarters
here, quoting from comprehensive
reviey published in the official news
paper Izvestia of Moscow.
"Poincare won, although Lloyd
Georges compromise proposal was
adopted the article states. "Bccom
ing convinced that his mild policy
could not cause the Russian delegation
to depart from principle, Lloyd
George yielded to France. He was
influenced in his action by the pres
sure of the British conservatives and
the attitude of American capital. Am
erican jealousy watched Genoa, fear
ing that the Europeans might escape
American influence.
