once more lined himself alongside
the Illinois Manufacturers assn, the
Chicago Public School league" the
Chicago Tribune, the Edison Co. and
the anti-CatholiC little red school
house" forces last night when he Of
fered the name of Jacob Loeb for
nomination to the new school board.
But already whipped twice by the
Independent council, Thompson did
not try to force his pet school board
head on Chicago before some of the
people get a chance to tell the alder
men what they think about Loebism
in school affairs.
Out-maneuvered and Out-voted
twice, the administration meekly as
scented when Aid. John Kennedy in
sisted that the appointment of Loeb
go over a week for consideration be-
fore a vote be taken on it. Mean
while union labor and various I'M
biased civic organizations of the city
will give the new aldermen an idea
of where the Loebites stand in school
board affairs.
The massacre" of 68 teachers
jobs by the steamrOller faction will
be recalled and attacks on the Chi
Cago Teachers Federation will be
pointed at as punishment for the big
fights made by that organization to
force big business firms to. pay their
taxes that the school system might
get enough money to run itself.
How the new council stands on ad-
ministration politics was quickly
demonstrated last night when Mayor
Thompson tried to rush through
some of his pet plans, among them
the naming of Loeb, before the rules
of the old council could be adopted
by the new. If he had been success
full, Loeb might have been forced on
the aldermen almost without a dis
cussion of his actions and certainly
before the new aldermen could be
shown his real anti-union labor

cations to the aldermen, Aid. Richert
and KUnZ stepped in and battled until
they beat him by vote of As to %.
Then the council organized, accepted
the old regulations with a change re-
curing fOur-ifths vote for sus-
pension Of the rules, and accepted
ThOmpsOn's reports.
The executives message was di-
vided into three parts. One section
detailed what the different city de-
partments had accomplished and
made suggestions for their better
ment.
Another set forth the mayors
'bOmb-sheI' traction project. It
proved to be-Mike Faherty's old sub
way scheme to use the 100000
traction fund and build by special as
sessments against property, owners
in the neighbOrhOOd affected by sub
ways.
The third section called attention
to the police department and de-
claPedr that because of the number
Of policemen busy on special work in
dance halls and for corporations, the
police force was shy $50 men. Chief
of Police Herman SchUettler asked
that these men be recalled from spe-
cial work and put on beat.
The council spent four hours clos
ing the business of the old body aud
organizing the new.
Several outgoing aldermen had
messages of farewell to the council.
But most serious and important was
that of Aid. Charles E. Merriam.
Among other things, he said:
''The most important single prob
lem that the city has to deal with is
its public service corporations. The
aggregate capitalization of these
corporations is around $60O,OOO,OOO.
Their revenue, expenditure and debt
is larger than that of Chicago. They
touch intimately the life of every
householder and citizen in Chicago.
