Statement by NAL President Ford Frick

While we respect the Pacific Coast League's right to think itself of the same quality as the National-American League, the historical record indicates otherwise. Further, the suggestion to appoint Connie Mack as commissioner of Baseball is equally laughable. Mr. Mack has approved the blatant piracy of some of the National-American League's biggest stars.

The member franchises of the PCL, instead of trying to garner public support by attacking the 'Eastern Leagues', should focus on improving the quality of their players. The American sporting public, over the course of a long season, cannot be fooled into thinking an AA league anything near Major League quality.
