McAndrew Gets in
Bad with School
Board Trustees

This afternoon the school board will
vote on Superintendent McAndrew's
recommendation for his new teach
ers' councils. This matter came be-
fore the administration committee
meeting Monday afternoon but the
superintendent failed to get it thru.
The vote resulted in a tie.
At Mondays meeting the superin-
tendent came in for censure for what
the board together with the business
manager considered the superintend-
ent's arrogating to himself the right
to give power to the principals club
to make decisions on matters coming
strictly under the duties of the board
and the Office of the business man
ager. The crash came when the SUI
perintendent recommended that the
principals club be furnished with
copies of bulletins sent to school en-
gineers and that bulletins be submit
ted to the superintendent for approx
al when regulations which might af-
feet educational work were being
made.

that the principals club was trying
to run the board of education. BUSH

nate the business managers Office.

French LEAGUE
WOUL.DPROBEU.S.
RULE IN HAITI
Washington Shocked at
the Suggestion

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The ac4
tIon of the French league of the rights
of man in initiating a move to bring
the question of the United States In
vasIon and illegal occupation Of Haiti,
an Independent nation, before the
league of nations, created a sensa-
ton in government circles here.
Seventy-fve per cent of the sena-
tors and deputies are members Of this
league and its demand that the
French government bring the Haiti
grievance before the league council,
is only short of being an official &C.
ton of the French government. That
the Washington government will con-
slider itself affronted provided Herriot
complies with the demands of the
league, would be putting it mildly.
Haiti is affiliated with the league of
nations but the country is unable to
pay the expenses of a delegate as its
funds are controlled by the Wall ST.
bankers.
The black republic Of Haiti was in
vaded by American marines under
the reign of Woodrow Wilson, in 1915.
Once they got in, they refused to get
out and have ruled with an iron hand,
inaugurating reign OF terror which
was not surpassed by the bloody rule
of the Spanish in Cuba.

Four Chicago local unions of the

lists, Locals Nos. 1913, 1874, 366 and

traction ordinance, which would give
the bankers perpetual franchise on
the Chicago surface lines, free of city

Trade unionists point out that a
few corrupt and conservative union
officials, allied with the Tribune-De-
ver-News political machine are at
tempting to swing the workers for
the ordinance by promising them mil
lions of dollars worth of work.
This promise will not be fulfilled,
union members say, because the bank
ers who are the chief support of the
Dever ordinance are the same group
who support the non-union Lands
campaign against the building trades
