After the Rulh incident, it becomes known now, Judge Landis was asked his opinion of the twelve contract, but he refused to accept the Boston idea because he claimed it encouraged ball players to be diehonest. He said the future welfare of the sport depended upon the honesty of the players and the magnates and unless they could trust one another it would be better to stop baseball than to hand out twelve month contracts and then spend a young fortune to investigate the activity of each and every player. The barnstorming evil will come in for a dieeusrion at the annual league meeting next month, i Landis is expected to have some sort of solution of iiu- problem but he has steadfastly refused to discuss the matter at. this time.
