would appear that the American
League had been handed a champion

President Johnson revealed that
Commissioner Landis, whose investi-
cation of the attempted bribery re-
suited in oConnell's and bolan
expulsion had not advised him of any
of the developments, nor communi-
Gated with him in regard to the
scandal. although Johnson, together
with President Heydler of the Ma
tion League. and Landis. form the
base bah advisory council.
1T is unfortunate that we should
be confronted with these conditions
on the threshold of world series,
President Johnson said.
The American Lea que executive
threw the resources of his organiza-
ton back of the Investigation of the
White Sox involved in the crooked
world series of 1919. 1T was through
President Johnson's effort that Billy
Maharg of PhllaCeiphla confessed MS
participation in the bribery of the
White Sox, and Johnson later In
duced Bill Burns, former major
league player, to appear before the
Cook County gand jury to tell his
connection with the throwing of the
world series. The American League,
President Johnson said, spent between
100000 and 100000 in attempting to
obtain the conviction of the White
Sox involved in the scandal.
We pledged our support to drive
crooked players out of the game, and
we succeeded, in so far as the Amer
lean League was concerned, MT,
Johnson said. I'VE succeeded in spite
of the handicaps that confronted US.
In spite of the fact that the records
were found missing from the State s
attorneys office, under mysterious

latest scandal Barney Dreyfuss, owner
of the Pittsburgh Nationals, left for
washington today with the expressed
intention of suggesting that Commits
sioner Lands reopen his investigation.
Il am going down to repeat all l said
Yesterday, to which some persons ap-
pear to have taken exception, and If
ANYBODY wants to start anything with
me I'll be there to give them all the
satisfaction they want" the Pittsburgh
magnate said. p
'If this thing is not cleared up
properly and to the entire satiSfac-
ton of the public by bringing every
guilty man to justice-and there
must be more than two involved
will be in favor of eliminating the
world series, for a time at least, as

said "The series is being made into
too much of big circus or show,
and in view of the present trend of
things is a growing menace.
Manager McGraw of the New York
club has been quoted as taking ex-
to have said that I was still sore
about the defeat of the Pirates in
1921" continued the club owner. IF
all that happened in 1921 had been
exposed, Mr.. .McGraw might not look
very good. The old saying about

to the bottom and expose any and all

cry" said Mr.. Dreyfuss. 1T is absurd
to say that O'Connell and Dolan were
thte only ones involved. AS far as
can learn from players who know
him. and from my own observation of
him, O'Connell is only a big boy and
probably did not know what he was
been told to do. There were others in
the background who knew all about
the plot and they ought to be ex-
posed. Only in that way can base

WASHINGTON, MAY e.-The

WASHINGTON, MAY 6.-The Sc
lection of Congressman Theodore
Burton of Ohio to serve as temper
airy chairman of the Republican Ma
tional Convention and. presumably,
to deliver what is commonly known
as the keynote speech, is in all i'm
portant particulars entirely in harm
ony with the general policy and pur-
pose Of the present administration.
The Coolidge regime like hat OF
President Harding, has been empha-
sizing reduction OF expenses and re-
duction of taxation. Probably no
n who has ever served in Congress
has a better-known record in that re-
spect than has Mr.. Burton. In fact
the Ohio legislators critical inspec-
ton Of all appropriation bills has
often caused his colleagues to think
that he is overzealous in that regard.
However that may be, he is
thoroughly we'll qualified to sound
economy as a keynote for the coming
campaign.
Like President Coolidge, Repre-
sentative Burton is not very long on
talk. He has never made any pre-
tense of being an orator and yet he
has been a very interesting and in
structive speaker during discussions
in both House and the Senate. His
addresses are always clear, logical,
and easily read.
Mr.. Burton has the unusual dis
