" B—-6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, D. €., THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1931. BL THOMPSON'S ADE UNDER FIRE Gorman’s Disharment Urged for Part in King George Campaign. B the Associated Press. SPRINGFIELD, Ill, May 21.—The “America First” crusade of former Mayor William Hale Thompson had an aftermath today in a recommendation for disbarment of former Representa- tive John J. Gorman, an attorney of Chicago. ‘The recommendation was made in a report filed with the Illinois Supreme | Court. It alleged unethical conduct and was made by Roswell Mason, special commissioner of the court, after a vear's investigation into Gorman's conduct during the Thompson “America First” campaign, four years ago. Chicago Bar Protesis. Gorman’s prosecution of Thomp- son's ouster suit against William Mc- | Andrew, then superintendent of schools, accused by Thompson of pro-British Jeanings, drew the censure of the Chi- cago Bar Assoclation, which instituted the disbarment action. Gorman, then assistant corporation counsel, testified before the Board of Fducation against McAndrew, support- ing the mayor's charges that the super- | infendent was a “paid agent of the | British crown” and that McAndrew | permitted the use of text books steeped with propaganda for King George in | in the local schools. Denied Apology. Gorman cited alleged pro-British ex- cerpts_from history books writien by Prof. David Saville Muzzey of Colum- bia University, whom Gorman called a “propagandist.” % As a result, Muzzey filed a $100,000 Jibel suit, but in October of 1929, after McAndrew had been dismissed, Prof. Muzzey withdrew his suit, with the an- -nouncement that Gorman had made a formal logy. Later the bar association complained, and Gorman told its Grievance Com- mittee that the retraction he gave Prof. Mussey was a falsehood.’ | FOUR-AND-A-HALF ST. MAY BE ‘GREENLEAF’| Southwest Citizens Decide Name‘ Congress Will Be Asked to Authorize. Greenleaf street is the name unani- | mously adopted by the Southwest Citi- | 7ens’ Association for the re-naming of | the present Four-and-a-half street, at| & meeting last night in the Fairbrother School. The change will be made if Congress heeds the citizens’ action. Mrs. Clara Neligh, head resident of | the Neighborhood House in the south- ‘west section, made the motion for the dual action of voting to remame the thoroughfare and _simuiltaneously se- lecting a name. The name would be appropriate, she pointed out, because of the location on the street of Green- Jeaf School, named in honor of James Greenleaf, an early resident whose numerous real estate deals and business transactions played a leading part in the city’s improvement. Another unanimous vote of the as- sociation urged the repaving of the street. J. M, Schaffer, president, read a communication in which he quoted Corporation Counsel Bride as declaring that property holders of land abutting Four-and-a-Half street would be as- :enszd for any repaving that may be ione. Dr. W. C. Fowler, District health of- ficer, in response to the assoclation’s complaint of heavy smoke from loco- motives in the southwest section, ad- vised members that the District had no legal authority to regulate the matter.
