cepted the invitation Of Commissioner
George E. Allen to sit with the latter
in hearings scheduled october 80 on
charges of misfeasance in the Dis

Allen asked for Wheatleys to serve
with him because he is neutral so
far as a conflict between District ON.
cials is concerned.
st am District Official" Allen said,
"and so is the building inspector. The
public may suspect me of being pro-
District in a matter of this kind.
Mr.. Wheatley certainly will not be
partial to one side or the other, and
for that reason I asked him to serve.
and he has accepted the invitation"
Allen was selected for the job OF
conducting the hearing because he Is
the only Commissioner who has no
direct connection with the inspectors
department.
Col. John w. Oehmann, building in
spector, faces nine specific charges Of
misfeasance, prepared by Elwood H.
Seal and Chester H. Gray. assistant
corporation counsels, at the request
of the Commissioners. The two attor.
neys will act as prosecutors before

Gingerly preparing for its efforts to
increase the price the farmer gets for
potatoes, the A. A. A. sought to show
today that the consumer would be
better of if prices were Stabilized"
1t issued statement saying studies
indicated "the consumer would pay
lower prices for potatoes then he has
averaged over period Of years In the
past If prices were stabilized at fair
return to the grower"
1.-THE surveys" 1t said, included
years of high, low and average produc-
ton since 1920 and the comparisons
showed that the cost to the purchaser
of potatoes was less in the normal
years than the average Of the high
and low seasons.
"The years of medium production
included in one survey were 1928 and
1927. The smallest potato crop In the
period from 1928 to 1928 was in 1925.
The largest crop was in 1928.
"The analysis by A. A. A. economists
showed that the cost to the consumer
during the average Of the small-crop
year Of 1925 and the large-crop year
Of 1928 was $2.l1 a bushel. The cost
during the two years Of medium pro-
duction averaged $1.91 a bushel.
THUS the consumers paid during
this period 20 cents more per bushel
in the years Of extremely high and low
production than in the years Of mod
crate production"

IN WILSON CASE
Philadelphia Gangster Be-
Iieved to Have Given
New Information.

Police Investigators assigned in the
murder OF Allen B. Wilson, newspaper
route agent, today were attempting to
run down leads they are believed to
have obtained by grilling William
Cleary, Philadelphia gangster, under
arrest in the case.
Inspector Frank S. W. Burke, CHIEF
Of detectives, would not confirm or
deny reports Cleary had told investi-
gators all he knows about the murder
of Wilson, who was shot to death last
October when mistaken for Edward
Mickey" Mcdonald, local gambler.
Burke said he doesn't know what the
detectives assigned to the case are
doing and hasn't talked with them for
four days.
Cleary, suspected Of being a key
figure in the crime, was arrested
more than a week ago, and has been
shifted from one precinct to another
and held incommunicado.
The investigating squad has grilled
him on several occasions, but, it was
said, obtained their first information
Saturday night.
A statement was obtained several
days ago from Dewey jenkins, also
under arrest, who is believed to have
implicated Cleary. Police, however,
have refused to divulge the nature of
either statement.
Several other men are under arrest
including Albert S. Sutton and Ernest
w. Myers, who are held at the District
Jail. John slim" Dunn, now serving
a 15-year robbery sentence in Alca-
traZ, also has been mentioned in con-
nection with the investigation.
Wilson was killed early on the
morning of October % while deliver
ing a newspaper in front Of McDon-
AIDS home in Takoma Park. McDon-
aid had returned home earlier than
usual and thus escaped the bullets in
tended for him.

FARLEY INDICATES
|NEW POSTMASTER
WILL Be D. c. MAN
FroWn Greets Tender of
Ohio Mans Name for
$1,000 Plum.
PLACE is HELD ABOVE
POLITICAL DEBT STATUS
Moneys Successor Probably Will
Come From Post Office De.
partment Ranks.

Indication was given today that
when successor to Postmaster Will
liam M. Mooney is named he will be
a bona-f1de resident of Washington,
probably from the ranks of the Post
Office Department.
Postmaster General Farley. 1t was
made known, is not willing that the
local postmastership go to pay of any
political debt, but wants it to be
promotion.
Mooney, whose term ends Febru-
ary S, came up through the depart
ment and Is to be rendered another
post there.
The Post Office portfolio here stirred
local Democrats over the week end
because of the announcement that
Allen Rowe, Ohio insurance man, was
being doomed for the post by Repre-
sentative Lamneck Of Ohio, whose
campaign he managed in 1884. Far
ley said that Rowes name was the
only one that had been mentioned
to him.
Residence Clause Bars Rowe.
Rowe presumably would be barred
from the appointment because of the
one-year residential requirement, set
by executive order, but the attitude
of the Postmaster General would not
be favorable to any candidacy Of that
nature, granting that no other barrier
existed.
Farley emphasized today that poli-
tics should not be the dominating fac
tor in filling an Office as important
as that in Washington, which he
looks upon as second only to New
York City. Therefore, he is OF the
conviction that the Washington office
should aways be in charge of a man
of tried experience in the service. He
has no one personally in mind at this
time, but has reason to know that
there are number who have spent
years in the service who are qualified.
Farley said that he has not taken
the matter up with the President and
that he will be in TO hurry to do so
because MONEYS term does not ex-
pire for some time. 1t Is felt the
President would oppose an appoint-
ment such as contemplated. .
Principle Followed rs Years.
The postmastersnip here. which
pays $4,000, has been considered q
berth which a local person should fill.
Just as it is in other cities. After o
lapse, this principle of selection has
been followed unwaveringly by both
parties for more than quarter Of a
century. Mooney, an appointee OF
President Harding, succeeded another
veteran postal employe. Merritt o.
Chance, whose name has figured in
speculation of potential candidates.
