Landis, in a speech before the annual banquet of minor league baseball clubs, tonight virtually ended any speculation about whether base- ball will seek exemptions from the United States draft. The baseball czar lamented the fact that Europe is at war again and said he hoped it would not be necessary for the United States t0 enter the conflict. “Whether this nation gets in or not. we can't go on without feeling its reflex here," he said. is going to call on this organization and every member of this organ- lzation.

"During f-lie whole period that this tragedy continues to exist. professional baseball must hold aloft its standards of respectabil- ity and integrity." the commission- er said in his first address before the minor leaguers in eight years. There had been some ta k baseball circles since the draft law was passed that baseball might seek to have the period of sci-vice split or to have some plan adopt- od that would rict take high-sal- aried ball players out of the parks and put them into the army.

No-trade rule May be lifted At Chicago By Judson Bailey Associated Press Staff Writer A'I'LANTA. Ga., Dcc. 6—(AP)-~ It was a year ago this week that the American-Baseball League haml- cuffed New York Yankees with its rule that the champions can make no trades with other clubs of the league. and although its virus has been passed along now to Detroit. the effect lingers on. Joe McCarthy, one cf the smooth- est managers in the business, has been hanging around the fringe of the minor league meetings all week with his eyes and ears wide open and today lie made a deal. He sent outfielder Jake Powell to San Francisco of the Coast League for approximately the waiver price of $7.500. That hardly could be construed as an impressive first step in the reconstruction of the former champions. Buf. if. was indicative of the trading doldrums into which the American League has fallen. The biggest deal that was put through the junior circuit was the Bos- ton Red Sox sale of two second line pitchers, Dennis Galeliousc and Fritz Osfermueller, to St. Iouis Browns. The situation was sufficiently serious that rumors were around that the restriction on trading by the pennant winner might be lift- ed when the American League meets in Charcago starting next Tuesday.
