Johnson Faces Loss of Job
as Head of American
League.
NATIONAL ENTERS ROW
Lands Appears to Be Sure
of Majority Support.
BY Henry l.. Farrell

United Press staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-Ban John
son, president of the American
League at a salary of $45,0 a year,
probably will be removed from the
office next week when the club own
ers of his circuit meet in Chicago
to referee a bout" between John
son and Commissioner Lands.
While Chicago has been the key
point for all the recent baseball
Investigations, charges and denials,
the plans for the muzzling of the
vociferous American League presl-
dent have been discussed and de-
cided upon in New York.
National Loop Aroused
Up to a certain point the Ma
tional League felt happy that all
the scandal talk involved only the
American League, but when John
son, with his heated attack on the
commissioner, incidentally cast sus-
picion on a world series between the
New York Giants and the New York
Yankees. the National League own
ers went to the drawer for their
guns.
While the National League owners
have no fear that the magnates of
the younger league will not support
the commissioner, they may force the
hand of the American League own
ers if Johnson is not requested to re-
sign.
If by any chance, and it's a ten to
one bet against, that the American
League should get a vote of six to
two against the commissioner, the
National League could force a joint
meeting and Colonel Rupert, of the
Yankees and Charles Comiskey, of
the White SoX, would vote with the
eight National League clubs in sup
port of Lands.
Warned by Others
1t was learned today that two
other club owners of the American
League had called Johnson on the
phone and warned him to maintain a
discreet silence under the threat of
the loss of his job.
1t was learned from a positive
source of information today that the
American League owners are con.
sidering the situation to be one of
the greatest emergencies, and that
if Johnson is deposed, Ed Barrow,
business manager of the Yankees,
would be urged to accept an appoint
ment as acting American League
president under leave of absence
from the New York club.
