Police Board Ponders
Charges That Weight
Champ 'Feigned Ills

A Police Trial Board today hac
under consideration charges against
Pvt. r. Keith Kallio, amateur
weight-lifting champion, that he
"feigned Illness" a pain in the
back.
The policeman. who is stationed
at the No. 6 Precinct, was sus-
pended by Capt. Archie Winfree
on April 7 on charges that he faxed
the illness but that on April he
was seen playing golf on the Rock
Creek Park golf course. A second
charge that he had made a false
statement to his commanding Of
f1cers was dismissed by the trial
board yesterday, as the session drew
to a close.
Inspector Milton D. Smith. as
sistant superintendent of police who
is head of the trial board, said the
three-man group expected to hand
down a decision on Monday.
Golf "Not Strenuous"
When Pvt. Kallio took the stand
he admitted he played nine holes
on the morning in question but only
practiced in the afternoon. He said
he went to the home of Sergt
Benjamin r. Campbell after that
to use a heat lamp on his back.
He said he had been suffering the
back pains since December 10, when
he fell down a flight of stairs, and
that he hadn't lifted q weight
since November 80.
In response to a question by Capt.
william T. Cunningham, men,
ber of the trial board. he said that
golf was not a strenuous exercise.
I'm weight litter, and in my
opinion golf is one of the mildest
exercises there u.s." he said.
Sergt. Campbell took the stand
and said the weight-lifter may
have been at his house using the
heat lamp, but he didn't know be-
cause he wasn't there. He added
that the door was always open and
that Pvt. Kallio had free run Of the
place. A watchdog, who knew Killio
kept everybody else away, he said.
Board Votes Unanimously.
The board voted unanimously that
since the prosecution could not
prove where Pvt. Kallio was on that
afternoon after he left the golf
course and that he may have been
taking a heat treatment, the charge
about the false statement hadn't
been proved and should be dis
missed.
Another witness, Sergt. Arthur E
Fredette, told the board he had
been instructed to watch Pvt. Kallio
and that he had witnessed the golf
playing.
In another case, Pvt. William A
Gordon Of No. 13 precinct was fined
$25 for falling to communicate with
his precinct on April 3. A charge
that he had made a false statement
about the incident to his superior
officers was dismissed.

Conroy Orders
Another Ballot
On Segregation
Fire Fighters Head
Says More Than 20%
Should 60 on Record

Disclaiming responsibility for the
resolution in favor Of racial segre-
CATION In the District Fire Depart
ment, Capt. Joseph w. Conroy, pres
ident of the. Washington local Of
the international Association of
Fire Fighters, has scheduled two
meetings Of his organization to-
morrow to put the question to a
second vote.
Capt. Conroy told a reporter last
night he did not feel the union
should be put on record in such an
important question by a vote of less
than 20 per cent of its membership.
He said he thought most of the
800 members would appear at one
OF the two meetings tomorrow,
scheduled for $50 am. and pm
He said he did not know whether
the voting proportion on the segre-
cation question would be changed by
the second vote, but he made it
plain that he hoped it would.
Believed Policy to Change.
The resolution, presented to the
Commissioners yesterday, said it
was believed" Chief Clement Muir
ply planned to abandon the policy
Of segregating white and colored
firemen. It "implored" that segrega-
ton be continued.
This resolution, Capt. Conroy said,
was the 'brain-child" of Capt.
Curtis E. McGhee, chairman of the
unions segregation committee. !"
And, he added. it was Capt. McGhee
who was responsible for its having
been made public.
Capt. Conroy said that, before
presenting the resolution to the
Fire Chief or the Commissioners,
Capt McGhee had circulated 1t
Thursday among Southern Con-
gressmen" at the Capital. The COM
mittee chairman had done this on
his own initiative, Capt. Conroy
said.
Combined Resolution.
The union head disclosed, at the
same time, that the resolution pre-
sented to the Commissioners yester-
day was actually combination of
two resolutions, one dealing with
segregation, and the other with
the procedure to be followed in the
promotion of colored officers.
The vote on the combined resolu-
ton, therefore, was closer than yes
terday's reports indicated. On the
original segregation resolution, it
was "a to 16. But on the part ap-
plying to promotions. 1t was 80
to 81.
There are 50 Negroes serving in
the Districts 9l0-man department
according to Deputy Chief Frank
G. Berry. They now are grouped in
Engine Company q under Capt
James F. Mills, and in Engine Com
|pany 4 under Capt. Joseph Briscoe.
The department has one colored
lieutenant and two colored SER
geants.
The union contended in its reso-
luton, that colored personnel were
being added to the department
so rapidly it was necessary either to
create a new. colored company or
abolish the policy Of segregation.
Chief Murphy, home on sick
leave, had no comment to make on
the unions contention that he was
planning to follow the latter
course.
