That's all right II the majors

The minors raised a similar cry
q years ago when Lands was Sc

ignored by the majors.
Richardson declined to say
whether the committee amended
the agreement to eliminate the
clause denying their right to le-

whether the group recommended a
hike in player-draft prices from
the $500 maximum.
The committee concludes its SEES
sions today with a rules revision
meeting. Although mainly con-
cerned with player technicalities,
the rules also involve territorial
rights Of minor leagues and may be
revised to provide greater ptotec-
ton. All the recommended re-
visions will be brought before the
December meeting of the National
Association for final approval.

NICHOLS REPLIES
TO JURY REPORT
Criticism OF Municipal
Sidewalk Paving Pro-
gram Is Cited

Taking cognfzance of that sec
ton of the recent grand jury re-
port which criticized the current
municipal sidewalk paving pro-
gram as requiring proper y-own-
ers to pay a bonus of four or more
per cent for borrowing their
own money, city manager A. c.
Nichols yesterday addressed a
letter of reply to Carl Causey, as
sistant foreman of the jury and CO.
signer of the report, setting for
the city's side of the question.
The report, which further alleg-
ed that the wisdom of the program
is doubted by many and forcing
upon them without referendum, or
an opportunity to exercise pre-
ference as to- whether they desire
to incur such a financial burden ,
drew from Mr.. Nichols, the as
sertion that he was surprised that
statements should be made with
out the formal appearance of some
City official before your body as
whole so that all the facts could
be ascertained, explored and prop
erly evaluated."
The section of the report of the
Grand. Jury which occasioned Mr..
Nichols letter of yesterday, was
