CHICAGO SCHOOL
OFFICIAL INDICATED
Row Started by Mayor Thompson's
Charge Books Are Pro-British
Won by McAndrew.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 19.-For nearly
two years William McAndrew had
sought to disprove the charges that re-
suited in his custer in January, 1928,
as superintendent of schools and yes
terday he was vindicated in Superior
Court.
Mayor William Hale Thompson made
one of these charges in the turbulent
school sQuabble in the late Summer OF
1927-that the textbooks used in the
Chicago schools were pro British"
AS to this charge the court said moth
ing, for it declined to examine the 10
or so books offered in evidence. Judge
Hugo Pam decided the matter on two
principal points-flrst, Was McAndrew
insubordinate? and, second, Was he
given due legal notice of the charges?
The decision answered both In the
negative and granted writ that wrote
Void" on the custer and quaShed all
records of the case.
At the time McAndrew lost several
months pay, as he was given no salary
during the progress of the trial-begun
in the Autumn Of 1927 and ended in
January, 1928. His counsel, however,
said there would be no effort to collect.
When word of the courts action was
received counsel for McAndreW appear
ed before Judge Thomas Taylor and
moved to dismiss McAndrew's $25o000
suit against Mayor Thompson, based
on the 'pro-British' textbook charges.

FOG BANKS PREVENT
SEARCH FOR EIELSON
Group of Pilots Forced to Return
to Base After Encountering
Snowstorm.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NOME, Alaska, December 19.-Fog
banks and snowstorms over Bering
Strait again have baked the efforts of
Northern aviators to fly to the rescue
OF Carl Ben Eielson, noted Arctic pilot,
and his mechanic, Earl Borland, who
have been lost since November some
where in the region Of North Cape,
Siberia.
Taking advantage of the first clear
weather in several days, Pilots Joe
Crosson, Ed Young, C. H. Gillian and J.
Harnhin hoped off from Teller,
Alaska, yesterday in open cockpit planes
for the long flight to North Cape They
met thick weather over Bering Strait,
however and, after flying through ever
thickening fog, finally encountered a
Snowstorm which forced them to re-
turn to their base.
With the exception of an occasional
blizzard, the temperature has remained
high along the strait this Winter, with
the result that there is much open wa
ter, which causes almost continual fog
few miles off shore.
Late adviceS from Teller said the
weather was getting colder, which may
dispell the fog. It was 80 degrees be-
low zero at North Cape yesterday, with
clear. calm weather resulting.
Eielson and Borland were lost while
on trip to the Nanuk, fur trading ship
icebound at North Cape,

being necessary for the participation of
the laity in the apostolic hierarchy's
endeavors. He said that he was never
tired and never would be tired of pro-
noting and recommending such Or
ganizations.
The Pontiff recommended the prac-
tice of going into spiritual retreats, such
as he himself has just undergone, for
the laity as well as clergy, saying that
great salutary effect came from this.
THE great malady of modern age,
the principal source of the evils we all
deplore," he said, 'is the lack Of re-
flection."
He deplored in modern life that con-
tinual and really feverish effusion for
externals, that immoderate appetite
for riches and pleasures which little by
little weakens in the soul all the noblest
ideals, Submerges them beneath earthly,
transitory things, and does not permit
the soul to rise to consideration Of the
eternal verities of divine laws Or of
God-the single source Of all that ex-
istS,"

FEDERAL PRISON
LEGISLATION ASKED
Attorney General Tells House
Committee of 100000
Program.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Attorney General Mitchell today
urged the House judiciary committee
to approve legislation to provide a pro-
gram to increase the facilities Of the
Federal penal system.
He said the program the department
had adopted would call for an outlay
of nearly 100000 spread over period
of five years.
The only criticism, he said, that could
be made Of the prison program was that
1t might fall short of the actual needs
Of the Justice Department.
Asserting that the problem of prisons
was the major one before the Depart
ment of Justice, Mitchell said he favored
the Smell bill to establish a Federal
penitentiary in the Northeastern States
and for an industrial reformatory west
of the Mississippi River. He also rec
commended reorganization of the prison
bureau and hospital for mental de-
fectives.
The superintendent Of prisons, San
ford Bates told the committee that the
Justice Department was urging the
adoption of the construction program at
the request of President Hoover. He
also urged that prison be established
in the Northeastern States.
I'VE could build six additional pris-
ons and still not have enough" Bates
said. Penitentiaries, he added, should
not have a population of more than
1000, preferably $50. He assigned as
the cause of the recent troubles in pris-
ons overcrowding and idleness.
The Justice Department, he said, de-
sired to divorce the parole system from
the department and wished to set up
a parole board to handle the cases.

COURT BUILDING
MEASURE PASSED
Senate Action on $9,740,000 Bill
Adds Important Structure
Here.

Another important step in the Gov
ernment'S building program in Wash
ton was taken today when the
Senate passed the bill authorizing So
100000 for construction of the United
States Supreme Court Building. The
measure passed the House several days
ago, and now goes to President Hoover
to be signed.
Senator Keyes of New Hampshire,
chairman Of the public buildings and
grounds committee, obtained favorable
action without debate. He called the
bill up yesterday, but at that time
Senator Norris, Republican, of Ne
braska, suggested that the Supreme
then before the Senate was disposed
Of. Senator Norris made no objection
to passage Of the bill today.
The Supreme Court Building will face
the Capitol grounds and will cover the
square from East Capitol street to
Maryland avenue between First and
Second street. This area already has
been purchased by the Government. 1t
is probable that some money will be
appropriated at this session of Congress
to begin this project.
The highest court in the land now
occupies the central portion of the
Capitol Building, where space for the
various requirements of the court neces-
sarily limit it. The new building not
only will contain spacious court room,
but will make available ample space for
law library, clerks Offices and other
purposes. The architecture for the
new building will conform to the i'm
portant position the structure will
occupy in front of the Capitol.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Ark, December
19.-The jury in the Connie Franklin
murder trial reported to Judge S. M.
Bone soon after II o'clock this morning
that it was deadlocked regarding a
verdict. The judge ordered the jurors
to continue deliberations on the fate
Of four men charged with torturing
and burning Franklin alive.
The foreman, Tom Moore, asked the
judge whether the charge could be re-
duced to second-degree murder. The
original instructions permitted verdict
of second-degree murder with the
penalty fixed at imprisonment of from
to 81 years.
The foreman said in reporting the
deadlock that he did not believe an
agreement could be reached. Judge
Bone said the trial had been expensive
to the county, already in debt and with
out funds to pay the witnesses, and
urged that every effort be made to agree
so that another trial would not be
necessary.
The jurors then retired.
last night, but the jurors deliberated
only few minutes before going to bed.
They resumed deliberations at $50
o'clock this morning.
A few minutes before the jury report
ed, the county grand jury was dis
charged by Judge Bone, thus precluding
any further investigation of the Frank
lin case until the May grand jury,
Prosecuting Attorney Hugh Williamson
said. Previous to the trial he an
nounced that regardless of the outcome
of the trial, further investigation prob
ably would be made.
At IL 40 the jury again filed into the
court room. This time the members
asked to hear instructions again, and
also the testimony of DR.. c. w. Garri-
son, State health officer, as to his ex-
animation of bones exhibited by the
State as the remains of Connie Franklin.
Before this testimony was read Judge
Bone recessed for lunch.
On the second trip to the court room,
the foreman reported one man had
changed and that the jury stood Z to 5.

Greater participation Of the laity In

especially among the young. who In
great numbers are gathering to train
themselves for the holy battles OF the

"There they find not only force or
means of bettering their own lives, but
they feel in their hearts a mysterious
voice calling them to become apostles
