DAILY NEWS AND JAKE LOEB
DISCUSSED BY WOMAN'S
CITY CLUB

In Qlr6cC DuL pOllC6 1aSllOn the 6X-
eCUtive committee of the WOman's
City club points out for the benefit of
Jake Loeb that some of the reasons
why they are mailing Jake Loeb as a
civil service wrecker were stated in
the Daily News of June Is, 1916.
After the first protest of the club
against Jake Loeb's reelection to
school board presidency, the Daily
News blew up with an editorial say
ing the ladies were out of order be-
cause they didn't give Loeb trial
and a hearing. Now the ladies' in
their final reply say: &!
1.-The growth Of the spirit and
technique of civil service is the one
guarantee to the vast body of Chi
cago teachers that they will receive
fair treatment and anything which
tends to break down that guarantee
forces them to adopt means for self
protection.
"All this was clearly stated both in
a communication sent to the Board
of Education by the City Club on
June Is, 1916, followed by editorials
stating much Of the position of the
Woman's City Club which appeared
in the Daily News of June 13, 1916,
in which the board was urged to give
careful thought to the abuses which
might result from the proposed
changes in the rules. Similar edi-
tOrials appeared in the Chicago
Journal and Chicago Herald. Rep
resentatives of civic organizations
who ahked for the privilege of pre-
senting their objections at the board
meeting on June IA, were denied a
hearing.
'In view of the widespread public
discussion which followed we can
hardly be said to have acted hastily
nor to have been guilty of any breach
of decorum when we judge a man in
public life by his public record"

GERARD WILL HAVE BUG TO

PUT IN KAISER'S EAR
Washington, Nov. 27.-Ambassa-
dor Gerard will take back to Berlin
next week Americas last word in the
submarine situation.
This will include notice of admin
istration plan to do no more note
writing, if there is any German viola
ton of submarine war pledges. He
will be in position to inform German
authorities privately that U. S. in
tends to carry out her Sussex note
of breaking relations if violations oc-
cur.
Officials have frowned on reports
both in this country and abroad that
a new U-boat "crisis" was developing.
The searching inquiries made by this
government into the different sink
ings by submarines during. the last
month have revealed the fact that
the government is intent upon deter
mining definitely whether the Ger
man government has embarked upon
a new campaign endangering her as
surances given at the time OF the
Sussex sinking.
