Dear Mr. Mayor:

Apparently those people in Wisconsin never
give up:

I am enclosing a copy of a bill introduced
last week by Mr. Davis of Wisconsin which would place
organized baseball under the Anti-Trust Act.

I have already written Bill Bartholamay about
this and assured him of my opposition to a similar bill.
I just wanted you to know about this bill and that I
shall work to have it "laid to rest" in the Committee
on the Judiciary.

With kindest regards, I am

FT/n Sincerely yours,
