The McANDREW CASE
ILLEGAL PROSECUTION SCHOOLMASTER’S APPEAL SUCCEEDS Chicago, December 19. Sustaining a writ of certiorari superior, Judge Pam held that the former school superintendent, William McAndrew, was not guilty of insurbordination, and that the “America first” charges were illegally prosecuted before the School Board, which ousted Mr'l McAndrew during Mayor Thompson’s anti-British activities in Chicago. [On March 21, 1928, the Mayor of Chicago, Mr. William Hale Thompson, won his six months’ fight against “proBritish propaganda,” when the Chicago Board of Education resolved by 3 votes to 2 to remove William McAndrew, Superintendent of Schools, from his position. The board held that all the charges of pro-British propaganda were sustained.]
