C. OF c. BODY HITS
HEADLEY DEMOT|ON
Safety Committee Calls Ac-
tion "Grave Injustice" and
"MoraIe injury"

Holding the recent demotion Of In.
spector Albert j. Headley Of the Police
Department to a captaincy to be &
grave injustice" and a step liable to
cause serious injury to the morale of
the Washington police force, the po-
lice and fire protection and safety com
mittee Of the chamber of commerce
today adopted a resolution urging the
District Commissioners to rescind the
order demoting Inspector Headley.
The action of the chamber today is
the first taken by a large body OF
citizens protesting Inspector Headley &
demotion, although scattered protests
have been made to the Commissioners
by many individual citizens. The reso
luton offered by Albert Schulteis, for
mer president of the chamber, adds
that If the demotion of Inspector
Headley is desired that he be given
a trial before the Police Trial Board
In conformance with the police
manual, and that the charges agains,
him be thoroughly aired at that time
Score Death Race.
The committee discussed at length
the accident two days ago in which
Sister Cephas was killed by a boot
leg car which was being chased by
a police automobile. Members of the
committee voiced indignation that the
police should be permitted to race
automobiles through the streets of the
city at rate of speed much in excess
of the legal rate. The committee
adopted a motion proposed by DR.
Lewis ]. Battle which would require
the placing on all cars used In such
work a distinctive siren and the blow
ing of it when there is any possible
danger.
w. P. Rayner, permanent officer
of the Home Defense League and the
author of an open letter to Commits
sioner Fenning three days ago ir
which he denounced the summary de
motion of Inspector Headley, said he
had proof of the existence of a plot OF
several weeks standing among other
officers of the Police Department to
seek and bring about the demotion OF
Inspector Headley.
Mr.. Rayner said on a purely bust
ness basis Inspector Headley should
be allowed TO retire within a short
time on the retirement pay of an
inspector, as a deduction of 2k per
cent of his inspectors pay has been
made for many years.
Members of the committee without
dissent voiced their dissa tisfaction
with the order of demotion, some hold
ing that Inspector Headley had been
"railroaded out 70 his job and that
"a courteous. efficient and faithful
gentleman" has been unjustly hu-
inflated. Others declared the demo
tion would prove a great blow to the
morale Of the Police Department.. as.
serting that members of the force can
expect anything in view Of the prece-
dent esta blished in the case of In
spector Headley.
Chairman Darr was authorized to
appoint a committee of three to dis
cuss increased safety measures at the
Union Station in connection with the
standing of taxicabs in the aisles from
which passengers are loaded and un.
loaded. Although the matter was
brought up, the committee declined
to take any action on reopening the
passage around the small park at the
south end of the Connecticut Avenue
Bridge.
