NEW YORK, Jan. 28.-Faint
gumblings of the internal warfare
that almost inevitably will be
waged when Judge Lands con-
tract comes up for renewal this
year were recorded on the sport
seismograph today, coincident with
the information that Ban john
son had declined an invitation to
sit in at the National Leagues
golden jubilee banquet.
The affair is to be held in this
city on Tuesday and johnson said
he would be unable to be present,
although he viii be here for the
baseball writer's dinner two nights
in advance of the National League
date.
Johnson. an irreconci,able anti
Lands man, is said to have sworn
an eternal vendetta with the rival
league after it swung its support to
the Judge when Ban attempted to
force another showdown of power
during the 1924 world series. This
action, among others, prompted
Johnson's league to chide him pub
Hcly, but now he has some of his
magnates lined up behind him again
and the next fight may be to a
finish.
Only the prospect OF future Bit
terness could prompt Johnson to
send his regrets to q function of
this kind. He knows that friend
ships may cease abruptly, IL
Lands agrees 10 become a canfli-
date for reelection, and he Is not

However, 1t seemed more than
possible today that johnson would
reconsider his determination to abb
sent himself from the dinner, in
view of the fact that many of his
magnates will be there and might
take unbrage at his implied slight
to the rival league.
If Johnson means to fight L.andis'
reelection, he must keep his own,
organization lined up or he viii
find himself holding the empty bag,
as per his custom of recent years.
Johnson's main hope OF success
does not rest with either league,
however. According TO those in his
counsel, all he wishes to do Ii to
make a brave enough showing 30
that Lands, who il not without his
sensitive side, will pick up his
balloons and play elsewhere.

ing. But show me the man who

and III show You one who win
walk out on any party that
doesn't exactly please his fancy.
Johnson Is believed to be leaning
rather heavily upon this possibility.
AS matter OF fact, he has little
else to lean upon. Baseball elected
Landis to office as the man of
substance who was to give the
game credibility after the 1919
scandal.
Can baseball afford the luxury Of
easing the man OF substance what
10 vulgarly known as the works?
The writer fears not. It would
look too much as though the man
Of substance was too much for
baseball.
OF course. If the man wished to
retire because Of little disagree.
ment over his retention, that
would be different.
