RENT CONTRACTS

A contributor to the Atlanta Jour

Spneestions shout the renting .o1

after calling attention to the fact
that farm lands have been rented

fact that we have grown into the

It is .. fact, that we. can no longer
plant only cotton. in this section, the
writer suggests that a new rent con.
traet.be prepared which shall provide
Yorsthe payment of rent in other
commodities than cotton alone. In
stead Of the one Thousand pounds of
cotton he suggests that the new con
tract provide for the payment OF
Ave hundred pounds .of cotton, fifty

xheat, and a certain number Of hu-

Court Action Forecast

Action in court probably would have
to be taken in Chicago, and on the
without due process of law" theory,
would be brought before federal
judge.
Suppose that MIR. Klepper and Mr..
Brewster declined to obey the Lands
ruling declaring them ineligible until
iY25 and 1924, and continued to func-
ton as president and vice-president
of the Portland club. What then?
As the Lands decision specifically
lays down the ruling that during
these periods of ineligibility they will
not be recognized as representing any
baseball club by any player, or by any
member, official, agent or employe of
the National association, or of any
major or minor league or club" 1t
LAYS foundation for the Judge later
to declare any such PLAYER, member
official, agent or employe of the Ma
tional association, etc" ineligible for
associating and dealing with in
eligible magnates--in short, he prob
ably would declare them ineligible
just as under baseball law a ball play
er under organized ball is declared in
eligible for playing with or against
Ineligible players
Property Rights Seem Forfeited
still another angle MS basis Of
/ court action IL presented through the
fact that by declaring Ineligible Klep-
per and Brewster, principal stockhold.
ers of the Portland baseball club, the
Judge is in effect forcing them out Of
baseball and forfeiting their prop
erty rights, alkwithout due process Of
law.
Judge Lands since his elevation to
the post of high commissioner has
been widely termed the caar Of base-
ball. This remarkable decision Is in
deed one such as only one with czar-
istic powers could make.

Thornton pitched one of the best
sames any pitcher has twirled in the
league this year and was given good

OFFICIALS OF BEAyER TEAM
Continued from rage ~


There appears Httie doubt. however.
hat the Portland club will flght th.'
dec sion. particularly that part OF /,
declaring Keeper and Brewster in
eligible from any participation N
baseball. The case seems almost GER
;ain TO be carried irto court.
The point on which anv such court
attack on the decision would be based
would be the authority of Judge
Iandis under baseball law % take
such drastic and hitherto unprece-
dented acton as the barring of club
owners from baseball. In all the his
terry OF the game nothing like that
ever before has been done.
When the Judge a month ago was
still withholding his decision as to the
status of Kenworthy. and before MIR.
Klepper MIR. Brewster, Mr.. Moser and
Mr.. Kenworthy had gone to Chicago
TO present their side of the case TO the
Judge. he was asked by Mr.. Moser to
announce on what section OF baseball
aw he based his jurisdiction.
He telegraphed hack that he based
il on Article Section of the majur-
minor league agreement, That Sec
tion reads as follows:
I'm case conduct determintal To
baseball is charged. alleged or sus
pected. the commissioner shall ave
Jurisdiction to investigate and deter
mine the facts; upon such determine
ton he may take and impose such
remedial or preventive action as he
deems appropriate against any part
thereto and minor league, club or in
dividual connected with the national
association, as the case may be-"
On that same section Judge andis
unquestionably now bases his pres
ent decis on. II will be noted that the
section in question when broadly in
terpreted confers the most sweeping
authority on the commissioner. His
powers are not eurtailed In any man
Ner. He has under that provision OF
baseball law virtually the power of
life or death over the future of any
person. whether player or magnate, in
baseball.
And there is no appeal to any
power in baseball from the judges in
depreciation of this statute and his
rulings under such Interpretation. He
s hmimself as high commissioner the
final and supreme authority in base
ball. In the Kenworthy case he has
also been prosecutor, jury and judge
as well, for it was he himself who
brought the case to its present promi-
nence By delving into 1t on his own
initiative after the quarrel between
Seattle and Portland over Ken
worthy's services had been settled by
a trade of Marty Krug for Ken
worthy.
Seattle Makes No Complaint
The Seattle club, the supposedly in
iured party in any irregularitys pres
ent, never made complaint to tho
Judge, nor carried its case before him.
The "Kenworthy case involving
the Seattle and Portland clubs Of the
Pacific coast league and the Chicago
Nationals, has held the attention of
the baseball world for many months
It's inception really dates back to
1920 when Mr., Klepper was president
of the Seattle club and William +
Kenworthy was manager and seconc
baseman of the Seattle team. Ken
