CHIEF APPOINTS
NEW SECRETARY
POLITICS TO- BE ELIMINATED
FROM POLICE FORCE
JOHN p. STEELE WILL SUCCEED
PATRoLMAN HAGEN5AUGH
Galloway Takes Step to NuIIify DOM
nation of Captain Dixon-HiIf
Will Retain His Present
Position

What is believed the first step toward
eliminating political influence from the
police department was made yesterday
when Chief of Police Galloway an
nounced he had appointed John L.
Steele to be his executive secretary.
Those who are cognizant of existing
conditions say the appointment of
Steele and the removal of Patrolman
w. L. Hagenbaugh, who has been act
ing executive secretary since Chief
Galloway became head Of the police
department, was made to nullify the
domination of Captain Dixon, and VIII
result in the department being placed
on a non-political basis.
When interviewed yesterday after
noon Chief Galloway said:
when 1 took the office of chief Of
police the position of executive secre-
tary was vacant, owing to the resigna-
ton of Lyle Pendegast. Since that
time Patrolman Hagenbaugh had been
acting secretary. AS the result of
high recommendations / appointed
Mr.. Steele, who impressed me more
favorably than a number of other ap-
plicants for the Office"
When asked as to what disposition
woul1 be made of Hagenbaugh, Chief
Galloway said:
Not Yet Decided
i nave not yet ueclueu WndC WoIh
will be assigned to him. He may be
sent to the University station for office
duty, or he may be detailed for duty
in Captain Dixon's Office"
When asked whether or not Richard
Hilf, secretary to Captain Dixon,
would be assigned to duty at the Uni
versity station, Chief Galloway de-
clared that he did not propose chang
ing Hilf from his present position.
The changes will become effective
this morning. Steele. who formerly
was connected with the League of JUS
tice, will assume duties in Chief Gal
loway's office Patrolman Hagenbaugh
will assist Steele Monday and on Tues
day Hagenbaugh will be given other
assignment.
1t is thought Hagenbaugh will be de-
tailed for duty in Captain Dixon's Of
flee, as the two officers are known to
be intimate friends.
Hilf's friends are making every effort
to obtain for him a promotion to the
new University station for duty as desk
sergeant.
