The following events occurred in October 1924: ==October 1, 1924 (Wednesday)== *Stanley Baldwin's Conservative Party tabled a motion of censure against Ramsay MacDonald's Labour government over its handling of the Campbell Case. The motion alleged improper interference with the judiciary after the government vetoed the setting up of an inquiry into the matter. *Baseball commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis banned New York Giants player Jimmy O'Connell and coach Cozy Dolan over a bribery scandal. They were charged with offering Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Heinie Sand $500 to throw a game on September 27 to help the Giants win the National League pennant. *The U.K. Liberal Party broke with Ramsay MacDonald's Labour government when it announced that it would not vote to ratify the treaties that the government had signed with the Soviet Union. The Liberals passed a motion in a party meeting declaring that that could not approve a treaty which "threatens to divert resources which are urgently needed for national and imperial development, and which amongst other objections contemplates that the British taxpayer should be made liable for further loans to the Russian state." *Born: Jimmy Carter, 39th President of the United States, in Plains, Georgia; William Rehnquist, Chief Justice of the United States, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (d. 2005) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「October 1924」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
