O’'Con nor, a young Chicago attorney, today ‘was appointed secretary to Judge K. M. Landis, supreme dictator of base- ball. Mr. O'Connor was selected from a list of twenty-two applicants, Judge Landis said. The position carries with it a salary of $7,500. When Judge Landis was offered the position as baseball commissioner he was assured to n free rein in hand- ling all diamond affairs. In his own words, they “told the world” that he was to be supreme. He signed the contract on this un- derstanding. Yet, the first thing the magnates try to do is to curtail his power and make him a mere tool by changing a word in the original agreement. Instead of premitting him to “act” against all offenders, the generous magnates changed it to allow him merely to “recommend” action, i The Judge was the first one to de- tect the alteration and he gave the moguls fifteen minutes to strike ont the word or get a new commissioner.
