LEAGUES APPROVE
LANDIS' RECORD

CHICAGO, Nov. II. -(P)- The
joint committee of the American
and National leagues, expressing
confidence in the 24-year baseball
rule of Kenesaw Mountain Lands,
voted today to recommend the re-
election of Lands for another term
as commissioner and to extend the
present agreement between the
two circuits.
The recommendation will be vot-
ed upon at joint meeting of the
major leagues in Chicago, starting
December II. At that time the du-
ration of new major league
agreement will be determined. The
current agreement has been for
Is years.
Lands new term will be for
seven years. His present term ex-
pires January Il, 1916.
Will Harridge, president of the
American league, after tWo-hour
meeting of the joint committees,
made this announcement:
1.-The joint committee of the two
major leagues will recommend to
the club owners that the present
major league agreement be ex-
tended. The two leagues also will
propose at their joint meeting that
Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands
be reelected as commissioner for
another term of seven years from
the expiration date of his present
contract

A Navy official told the Asso-
ciated Press that Baltimore was
selected for these reasons:
Baltimore's municipal stadium
has been "Navy's normal home
field"
The midshipment can be trans
ported to Baltimore by water. This
avoids placing any additional bur-
den on rail facilities.
The midshipment did not see
last years game, which was play
ed at West Point, and they are
''entitled to see this one"
He did not know whether the
Army's Cadet corps would also be
allowed to attend.
The Navy spokesman said he did
not know when, where, how or by
whom the decision to move the
game had been made. he mere
ly knew that it was official.
The announcement said that
further arrangements had not yet
been completed. wv st Point
sports officials welcomed the news,
pointing out that many members
OF the Army athletic association
are stationed in h Washington
Baltimore area.
Treasury officials were among
the first to request President
Roosevelt to approve a shift from
Annapolis to a big city. Secretary
Morgenthau estimated yesterday
that $50,000,000 in bonds can be
sold in connection with the game.
The treasury also feels that the
game will make millions of per-
sons ''sixth war loan'' conscious
all over the country. Officials said
they have tentative plans for SELL
ing bond to every ticket-holder.
The decision to switch the game
eliminates weeks of speculation.
Demands for a shift reached a
peak after Army's $50 defeat of
Notre Dame last Saturday, which
followed by only week Navy's
1918 victory over the Irish.
Members of congress, newspa-
pers, Mayor Laguardia of New
York, Governor C'Conor of Mary
land and others urged that h e
greatest service game of alp be
played where the public can see
it."
Col. J. Monroe Johnson, head TO
defense transportation, spoke out
against moving the game. He said
it would be an outrage" to tax
transportation facilities further,
but the Navy's plan to transport
the midshipment by water at least
partially overcomes that objec-
ton.
Like a last-minute field goal. the
decision to shift the game came
just in time. Naval Academy Of
ficials had said that it would be
impossible to distribute tickets af-
ter today.
Capt. C. D. Humphreys, Navy
director of athletics, hopes to have

Senator Ball
Blasts Dewey
COP Legislator
Expands Attack

WASHINGTON, Oct, Of -
Up Senator Joseph II. Ball
MIMI has broadened his
criticism of Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey's campaign, heretofore on
foreign policy issues, by assert
ing that the Republican nomi-
nee has failed TO offer the
American people a workable,
constructive program" of taxa
ton and labor relations.
His (Dewey's) only solution
10 our labor relations problem
is to appoint a labor leader Sec
rotary of Labor and place all
labor functions under that de-
partment," Ball said last night
in radio address explaining his
decision to support Mr.. Roose-
welt for reelection.
That sounds good" he add
ed, but it is hardly adequate to
solve the difficult labor relations
problem ahead. Governor Dewey
promises 10 reduce taxes for
nearly every one, but seems to
overlook the huge revenue needs
of the Federal government in the
immediate future"
Contending that substantial
number Of DeWcy's supporters
"are talking straight isolationist
doctrine" Ball said the Roose-
welt administration "haS revers-
ed the isolationist foreign policy
Of the United States" He credit
ed the administration with eStab-
fishing american leadership in
fighting this war and in devel-
oping world security organiza-
ton"
Ball contended that 1.-TWO facts
make DeWey's weak commit
ments' for world peace organi-
cation even weaker saying:
"One is the record of the major
ity of Republicans in Congress
in opposing these foreign policy
and preparedness matters before
Pearl Harbor. The other is the
fact that a substantial number
of DeWey's supporters, including
most Of those Democrats who OPP
pose Roosevelt, are I a k ng
straight isolationist doctrine to
the American people" -
