Of the total estimated expenditures for 1923, approximately $2,900,000,000 is to pay for past wars and to keep up the fighti.ig arms of the Government, leaving ocly about $60,000,000 for tho peace-time pursuits of the Federal establishment. “Phe estimate for the army and the navy 1s $801,636,107, a reduction vt $66,305,299 as compared with this tiscal year, and $956,352,741 as compares with the fiscal year 1921.

Ruth's share in the 1921 World Series amounted to $3,362, which he will lose By the Landis decision, Ruth may apply. for reinstatement cn May 20 or within ten days after thut date, Commissioner Landié said. "The 1922 baseball season starts about the middie of April, so that Ruth wiil be prevented from participating tn baseball for at least one month next season.

These players were members of the New York Ameri- can League team, 4 contestant for the World's Series championship in 1921, Immediately after that series, wilfully and defiantly, they violated the rules forbidding their participation in exhibition games during the year in which that world's championship was de- cided. ‘This rule was onacted in’ 1911, only after repeated acts of mi conduct by World Series partici- pants made {ts adoption impera- tive for the protection of the good name of the game. The rule was known to all players and particu- larly to these men upon one of whom a fine was imposed in 1915 for {ts violation, This situation involves not merely rule viola- tion but rather a mutinous defi- ance intended by the players to “present the question: “Which is the bigger, baseball or any indi- vidual in baseball?” There will be an order forfett- ing their share in the World Series fund and suspending them until May 20, 19 at which date and within ten days thereafter they will be eligible. Immediately atter the World Series Ruth, accompanied by Meuse! and Piercy, started on an extended barn- storming trip. Before leaving Ruth was warned Landis not to make the trip, Judge declared the national rules plainly forbade such exhibition games by players who had partici- pated in the World Series After several games were played the crowds fell off and the exhib'tion sol, packages, &e,, in thelr left games were abandoned, The players And men insist wane be- declared the trip was ‘aaliedo of in nee ee ait Read: accordance with Landis'a\wish, Yonge -Hegbe “igh!
