from any source whatever are &C
certed.
Thus through the years has
arisen a practice by supervisors IN
which they can, and often do, IN
sert charges of any nature against
an unfavored subordinate . and
the unlucky principal remains in
blissful ignorance until he or she
suddenly finds some expected
benefit not forthcoming IN
AAA, it is remembered, man lost
his promotion and eventual reten-
ton because some petty flunky
secretly termed him a SLOW
thinkin' oaf."
Under Cloud for Years
E, Claude Babcock, former Civil
Service secretary, touches graph
ically on this subject in a recent
article. asks If you've been tried
and convicted without knowing
it?". mentions a worker who
stood under a cloud for years be-
cause Of letters from outside
charging him with insanity. =
after years the employee was
cleared by a medical exam. an
other is frequently inundated by
supervisors warning that "I'll
write you up. another case: EN-
ploye worked IL years with clear
record, was shifted, and the new
supervisor inserted seven pieces of
unfavorable memoranda in the
mans record ION the quiet"
One Agency to Another
Another case cited by Babcock
is the charge that one agency
wrote another about "subverSive
activities" Of workers taken on by
the second office because Of their
actions in an employe organiza'
ton. this scents of the famous
Justice Department union dis
elimination" case, some principals
of which went to Social Security
but notification is wanting to date
=. this column would like to hear
from workers who have felt the
knife Of this type Of inequity.
A FeGO Questions
On the question, Babcock asks
why should an empioye be
libeled in his own record without
defense? Doesn't democratic gov.
eminent neceSsitate the chance to
face the accuser? Shouldn't an
employe have a copy of everything,
good or bad, that goes into his rec
ord? Wouldn't frankness to the
employe permit him to improve his
service if the charge is warranted,
and let him defend il unwar-
ranted?"

HEART ATTACK
KILLS HEADLEY,
POLICE LEADER
Funeral Service Here
On Wednesday

A sudden heart attack closed
the colorful career Of Inspector
Albert j. Headley, Of the Metro
politan Police Department, yester'
day afternoon. Inspector Head
ley, who retired in 1885, died at
his home at pit Ninth st. S. W.
He was 81.
Funeral services will be at 10
a. m. wednesday, with requiem
mass at st. Dominic's Church,
Sixth and D Streets Southwest,
and interment in Mt. Olivet

STRIKING FIGURE
Inspector Headley, known to
thousands of Washingtonians by
his flowing mustachioS and erect
bearing, was commended numer-
Gus times during his 80 years
service as a policeman.
He was appointed to the force
in 1896 and highly commended
two years later for the arrest
of a murder suspect. He was
one of the few bicycle police
men here at that time. He re-
NAMED a bicycle officer during
several promotions and was dis
mounted when he became a
captain in 1919.
He was appointed an inspector
in 1922 and again in 1927. He
became assistant superintendent
of police in 1885 after the cele-
brated "gentlemen'S agreement"
controversy in 1885.
SUCCEEDED BEAN
The so-called agreement was
disclosed before the House Crime
Committee between the then
Representative mas L.
Blanton CD Of Texas, Inspector
Headley and Major Ernest W.
Brown. BY the agreement, it
was reported, Inspector Thad'
deus Bean, then assistant super
intendent, was to be retired,
paving the way for Headley'S
appointment.
After Beams retirement, Head
ley was promoted, but retired
August 81, 1885.
Surviving are his wife, Mrs.
Gertrude Headley, his son, and
one daughter, Mrs. Roy Musick,
of 1900 Morrison st. N. w.

venerable Quantico mosquito plane" I"
This ancient TAM, vintage Of 1928,
long obsolete, is rolled out each
Spring to be loaded with poison dust
ing powder for use in the annual
Battle Of the Potomac.
Instead Of torpedoes and bombs it
spreads fine green powder over the
sWamps and inlets of the Potomac
near Quantico to combat the mosquito.
Almost as sure a sign of Spring is
the appearance TN the ordnance stor-
age shed of the ordnance chiefs pet

shed its headquarters for the past
three Summers and enjoys official
protection while it polices the shed

NATIONAL AIRPORT
PROGRAM |SURGED
American Municipal Group
Executive Board Ci:es
Cities Needs.

While the District Airport Com
mission again is marking time on a
solution OF the 10-year-old local air.
port problem the Executive Board of
the American Municipal Association
representing nearly 1000 cities, has
called for formulation Of a national
program for civic airport develop
ment, pointing out the vital need for
more adequate air terminals for cities
such as Washington.
The District commission may not
meet again for a week or 10 days, it
was reported at the Capitol, 1t is
In recess awaiting the return to Wash
ington of Maj Gen. Oscar Westover,
chief of the Army Air Corps and
chairman of a commission subcom-
mittee in charge of conducting a sur
field. Gen Westover now is in Cali
fornia in connection with Air Corps
maneuvers, which will continue
through the remainder of the month.
The tremendous growth reported
by the aviation industry in air pas
senger and express traffic and an
nouncement of new 80,000-pound
air transport planes now being de-
signed have spurred efforts of the
country's municipalities in their drive
for uniform planning and develop
ment of airports. it was reported as
a result of a meeting of the Municipal
Associations board in Chicago.
The cities have real stake in the
program it was pointed out. "Thir-
ty-six of the Nations average-sized
cities have invested s54,l98,614 in
their airports and eXpend sl,5500
annually to maintain them"
A survey by the association shows
that Cleveland has the largest capt.
sal investment in its airport. totaling
t5,800,000. The Pittsburgh Allegheny
port has the largest yearly operating
expense, s237,283.
The association has voiced the
opinion that the function of an air.
port is divided into several phases
first, its local use: second, it's service
in interstate commerce to a popula-
ton in an area ranging from so to
400 miles in radius, and third its
value for national defense purposes.
