WANTS Lands,
ST0NEHAM AND
M'CRAW OUSTED
Accuses Lands of Trying
to Hush Things
Up
ny United Press, Leased wire

CHICAGO, Oct. A. Aroused by
the rebuffs of Commissioner Of
Baseball Lands, Ban Johnson, pres
ident of the American league, has
announced a finish fight on Landis,
Charles A. Stoneham, principal own
er of the New York Giants, and John
McGraw of the Giants.
Johnson said he would not be
satisfied until Landis, Stonehanl
and McGraw are out of baseball.
Likewise he wants the instant dis
missal of all ball players who are
connected in any way with crook
edness i'll baseball. ~
Hell is going to be popping in
a few days., johnson declared. ~
will stand for no more nonsense
and | know that the espublic' is back
of me i'll my demand that this whole
nasty mess be aired sand the guilty
ones punished. st
my reasons, for demanding the
retirement of Commissioner Lands
from organized baseball are simply
these: Lands, in the face of this
scandal attending the winning of
the National league pennant by
New York and the reports concern
ing arrangements for the world S
series, is deliberately seeking to
hush things up. That is no way to
deal with the situation. -
Referring to his demand for the
ousting of Stoneham and McGraw,
johnson said:
. Stoneham and MeGraw-those
are the names we hear eyery time
there are reports Of 4 sscantalons
nature cropping up in the game.
johnson said he believed Jimmy
O'Connell when he spid ,he was only
the goat
Johnson said he, wanted to know
who was behind the. bribe offer.
"Players lid not do it them
Selves he said. Suppose,i for in
stance, that it would have been
worth $1J0,000i tbi the Giants to get
into the world s series. Suppose
some gamblers or some men associat-
cd with, Them wanted to make sure
they would win the pennant and get
into the world series. 1t seems
probable that the same gang that
wanted the Giants to win the pen
nant by crooked means would also
seek to corrupt the series ITSELF
Investigation also is being made
of lumors of ga disgraceful situa
tion'' attending the 1922 world S
;srsies,i Johnson said. lgl1Y - Il
~ am having these iNmors in
Ncstigated ana L expect that they
will be taken cup later in Il more
thorough fashion, he said.

Special Notice
TOY DISCUSSES
AMENDMENT TO
BE- VOTED UPON

Amendment Number I, to be vot-
ed upon by the people at the gen
eral election, Tuesday, November 4
is the initiative proposal of motor
stage and truck lines operating as
common carriers. This measure
ought to be given careful scrutiny
by every voter in California. Its
passage will bring about radical
changes in several particulars.
In the first place, it proposes a
four per cent tax on the gross re-
ceipts of all motor vehicle common
carriers, except those operating ex-
clrsively within the corporate limits
of municipalities, the same 10 be
paid i'll Dcu of al other taxes. 1t
means that such carriers would cs-
cape present personal property tax
es, state motor vehicle license and
weight fees, city regulatory licenses,
and possibly the gasoline tax.
The present state tax on these
carriers is four per cent of ;heir
gross receipts.
Secondly, the amendment pro
vides shat the money collected from
these carriers "shall be used for
the current expenditures of the
state or such special funds as may
be provided by law At present
these taxes are divided between the
state and the counties for highway
main enancc and reconstruction.
The four per cent rate, as fixed
i'll the appointment, cannot be chang
ed except by two-thirds vote of
both houses of the legislature.
Willie reading of the argument
presented in favor of this amenls
ment migEt create the impression
that the stages and trucks favor
placing Il tax upon themselves,
what they actually will receive is
substantial decrease in their pres
cnt tax if the amendment carries,
according to Harvey M. Toy, chair
man of the California Highway
Commission.
California is about to undertake
a complete retinanciug of state |
highway construction. A commit
tee. authorized by the last legis-
laturc and appointed by the COVER
nor, is now gathering information
and securing expressions of opinion
from the people before presenting t,
plan to the next legislature. The
work has not yet been completed,
but it is evident that public opin-
ion, so far as it has found expression
is in favor of the assumption by the
users of the highways of greater
share of highway costs, declares
Toy.
