DIAfJOIID STABS
FACE BIG CUT IN
THEIR SALARIES
New York, Jan. 15. National
league base ball players will receive
an unpleasant surprise with their
19J9. contracts as a result of the
magnates' action today in adopting
a club salary limit of not more thai
$11,000 per month. This is the most
radical financial retrenchment at
tempted by a major league in many
years and will prove a startling up
set to those diamond stare who have
expected a continuation of the high
salaries and long-time contracts of
pre-war days.
Under the new regulation, which
was adopted by a vote of six to two,
the maximum monthly salary limit
during the playing season must not
exceed $11,000 plus the manager's
salary. This will make the seasonal
payroll foot up approximately $60,
000, -for a playing period of about
five' and a half months. With a
club roster of 22 players.
Spring Practice Restricted.
The Nationals readodpted the rule
barring the beginning of spring prac
tice earlier than 30 days before the
opening of the season. This will per
mit the clubs to operate after March
23, and President Hedler state that
since this date falls on Sun
'day .he would consider the pres
ence of the players in camp on the
previous Saturday within the letter
of the rule. Sending pitchers to
"boiling out" camps at the expense
of the clubs previous to this date
also will be considered a violation.
Minors Decide on Policy.
About 30 representatives' of 10
minor base ball leagues, all mem
bers of the National association,
held a protracted session. They
discussed proposed changes in the
national agreement which will be
presented to the joint meeting of
the National and American leagues
tomorrow, with a request that a
reply be given them by the big
leagues by 6 o'clock next Friday
evening.
The principal change recommend
ed for the present draft rule is the
formation of a new governing board
on which the two major leapues and
the National association would
have equal representation. The
board would settle all disputes or
complaints involving major and
minor leagues only. -
The minors' proposition regarding
the draft rule is that major league
clubs may" arbitrarily purchase one
player from each club in class AA
for $7,500 between November 1 and
10. In case the player is not re
tained for the entire season he is to
be resold (outright title) to the
club from which he was purchased
for $2,500, and in the event the club
waives priority, he is to be offered
to all the clubs in the same classifi
cation for $1,000, except the club
that sold him.

Broad Peace Reconstruction
Program- Proposed in Re
port of Labor Federa
tion Committee.
Washington, Jan. IS. Federal
owenrship, operation or regulation
of public and semi-public utilities
was recommended in the report of
the committee on reconstruction of
the An. ican Federation of Ltbo-,
made public today after its approv
al by the federation's executive
council. Government ownershi of
all wharves and docks; federal leg
islation to prevent child labor, and
equality in pay for men and worn?
workers also were urged.
Nonpartisan Policy.
The committee opposed the for
mation of a labor politic-! party on
the ground that the "disastrous ex
perience of organized labor in
America with political parties of its
own amply justified the American
Federation of Labor's nonpartisan
political policy."
Other recommendations by the
comi.iittee were. ,
Legislation making interference
wih the rights of employes to or
ganise or any attempt to interfere,
with the legitimate activities of
trade unions a criminal offense.
The right of labor to fix its hours
of work.
Maximum working day of eight
hours with overtime prohibited ex
cept under extraordinary majorities,
and the week's working time limited
to five and one-half days.
Right to Organize.
Limitation of tasks of working
women to those which they are
physically capable ot performing,
No limitation on the rights of pub
lie employes to organize.
Provision for a referendum on
acts of congress or state legislatures
held unconstitutional by the supreme
court,
Legislation for state and federal
governments to own and operate

R
ight Types of Tires
, Save Truck Gosts
The important checking-up attention we give
to customers' truck tire equipment, starts with
the selection of the right type of truck tires
for each class of service,
From our experience as a
Goodyear Truck Tire Service
Station, we know that fre
quently. Goodyear Pneuma
tic Cord Truck Tires will ef
fect large savings when they
replace solid-type tires.
In other cases for example,
where slow, heavy hauls are
made on good pavements
. the Goodyear ; S-V Solid
Truck Tire cannot be sur
passed for its long-mileage,
low-cost records.
Still another type, the Good
year Cushion Tire, is speci
ally suited to a definite kind
of delivery work and in this
it means splendid economy.
If you are a busy executive
or truck owner, you will be
better satisfied to know that
all your hauling work is be-
i
ing done on exactly the cor
rect type of tires.
Let us examine your trucks,
their loads, their routes and
then report to you.

Americans Will. Discover ,
Art Pays, Says Baumgardt
A plea for the establishment of
civic and communal art centers in
Omaha was made by B. R. Baum
gardt, noted California educator
and speaker, before a representative
audience of 300 Omaha art lovers at
the Fontenelle hotel Wednesday af
ternoon. America's attitude toward art in
the past could be summed tip in
these words: "Will It pay," said Mr.
Baumgardt.
"But even when looked at from
this materialistic point of view there
were good reasons why art should
be encouraged," maintained the
speaker. "Paris, before the war,
derived an annual income of $250,
000,000 from the lovers of the beau
tiful who flocked to see it."
