MAYOR
SUES PAPER FOR
$4,000 DAMAGE
Executive Says Persecution
Has Reached Point Where He
is Branded a Traitor

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept CAS- a cli-
max to the propaganda that is be-
ing waged against him, attacking his
loyalty to the United States, Mayor
William Hale Thompson today filed
a suit for $250,000 damages against
the Chicago Herald, claiming libel.
My persecution has reached the
point where the newspapers are ac-
cusing ME Of being a traitor to my
country" declares the complaint. "Aiy
enemies are ihounding me to death;
their spies are continually trailing me
and even photographs have been
placed in my office and my home to
secure anything that might be con-
strued as rejecting on my patriot.
ism .-. -.
The mayor has been the target for
newspaper criticism and individual
rancor ever since he refused to invite
the British war commission to join
the French mission in visit to Chi
cago. This led to an outburst of in
dignation and daily he has been open
ly accused of lukewarm sympathy.
This latter feeling has been height
ened by the refusal of the school
board at the mayors instigation to
delete paragraphs from the text books
praising the kaiser.

DISPOSIT|ONOF
INJUNCTION SUIT
City Attorneys Office Thinks It
May Settle Points Which
viii Make Mandamus Suit
Against Mayor Unnecessary

That the board of supervisors has
as much say-so in the management OF
city affairs as the mayor, is o.Ie of
several questions which the city at
torney's office expects to see, settled
with the disposition of tn. Injunction
suit brought by L. L. McCandless to
hold up the pay of A. K. Vierra, park
and playground superintendent.
And we may be able to satisfy the
Democrats on this point" declared
Deputy City Attorney Albert NJ. Cristy
today.
Meanwhile the city attorneys office
is holding off the mandamus suit
which it expects to bring to compel
Mayor ]. J. Fern to sign the payrolls
that have been approved and passed
by the supervisors. Whether 1t will
be filed or not now depends largely
on the outcome of the McCandless in
junction, Attorney Cristy adds.
IF this office cannot convince the
Bourbons as regards the powers Of the
supervisors" Attorney Cristy con-
tinues, then we can try to get a
ruling which may bind them"
The McCandless injunction suit is
scheduled to come up in Circuit Judge
Ashford's court Saturday on the ques-
ton of whether a temporary injunc-
ton should be issued holding up Vier-
ra's salary.
THE idea of mandamus proceedings
would be to compel the mayor to GER
tify that the board of supervisors has
passed the payrolls, and this is the
only purpose. If. they are certified
then the auditor, Unless enjoined, GER
tainly has the right to go ahead and
pay the salaries.
THE injunction suit now pending
will settle to some extent the legal
right of certain items to be on the
payroll; that is, the legal right of the
IL appointiye heads of city depart
ments to draw their pay in the face
of the claim that, being Republican
holdovers, they are not legally in Of

Addressing the assembled delegates,

"Riga's fall was due to such men as
La Toilette, Gronna and Stone" de.
clared the speaker. when the kaiser
issued his declaration of victory full
credit should have been given these
men. They and men like Mayor
Thompson of Chicago are doing more
to prolong the war than any others.
and that means a greater slaughter
of American soldiers by the kaiser.
Every disloyal act and resolution is
interpreted by the Russians as mean
ing that the United States does not
desire to fight. and weakens their
faith in this country's promises"
