New Salary Bond Plan Proposed by President Justice

President Justice advances a drastic scheme for minor league baseball. Each league club would post a $1,000 bond to guarantee compliance with a $1,200 salary cap and other restrictions. Sterneman supports the plan, hoping it enforces the salary embargo and curbs higher player pay. The proposal, to be sent to league directors by mail, aims to test feasibility before the January GA meeting.
