American u. Teacher Aids D. C..
In Drafting Reorganization Plan
Has Been Retained
As Consultunt in
City Budget Office
By Horriet Griffiths

A 30-year-old assistant professor
at American University is helping
to whip into shape the District
governments own proposals for
self reorganization.
He is Walter G. Held, who has
been retained as an Organization
and method" consultant in the
city budget Office.
Budget Officer Walter L. Fowler
and his staff long have been max
ing studies toward an improved
municipal government.
Now, with the aid of the new
consultant, the Office hopes to
come up soon with an overall re-
organization proposal. After that,
Mr.. Fowler plans to go into the
various municipal departments
and work out methods for eff
cheney and economy.
Came Here in '48 to Teach.
The plans will be made available
to the Commissioners and to
ANY one else who's interested" !"
Mr.. Fowler said.
The District took up the "or-
ganization and management" idea
of the Presidents improvement
program of 1949 for Federal de-
| partments, along the lines of the
Hoover Commission Report.
1--WE have long felt the need
of reorganization of the District
/ government" Mr.. Fowler said.
And we know if we don't re-
organize ourselves, somebody else
will"
Mr.. Held, who is from Pennsyl-
vania. came to Washington in
1948 to teach and take his doc
torate at American University.
His thesis is on the Districts
budget process. He hopes to OBJ
tain his degree in June.
He worked with the city budget
officers while gathering material
for his thesis, in addition to his
library research. This logically in
volved a study of the city govern
ment, which he feels he really will
be carrying on in his new status.
Working on Contract Basis.
Mr.. Held teaches public admin
istration and political science at
American, including courses in
municipal government and city
management.
He majored in political science
at Bucknell University, and in
public administration in his grad
uate work at Harvard.
After serving with the Navy
from May. 1943, until February,
1916, he taught for two years at
Bucknell before coming to Wash
| ington.
His work with the District is on
a contract basis, but Mr.. Fowler
said it is expected his services
will be retained for a number of
years.
Mr.. Held said the forthcoming
reorganization proposal for the
District might result in different
divisions of work and authority.
Would Streamline Structure.
The study will include analysis
of the legislative proposals which
have been introduced in that con-
Evening star., 1951-02-25

nection. These have included a
proposal, for example. to con-
solidate the present administrative
agencies of the District into IL
departments along functional
lines: Health, Welfare. Recreation
Public Safety, Finance, Law, Pub
| lie Works, Libraries, Labor, Com
merce, Corrections. and Pro-
lfessional and occur a tiona
Standards.
Mr.. Held said the Districts plar
would be aimed at a much more
lstreamlined administrative struc-
| ture than exists now, with respon-
sibility more clearly established
Even without reorganization, he
added, there are a good many
management techniques which
can be launched here.
He said he does not believe the
Reorganization plan would involve
la reduction of personnel, but it
would contemplate the application
of sound administrative theory to
eliminate the confusion that ac-
companies a multiplicity of de-
partments and agencies.

Oscar CoIIazo Trial
Opens Tomorrow in
White House KiIIinq

Oscar Collazo, 37-year -old Puer-
to Rican, will go on trial in Dis
trict Court tomorrow morning on
first degree murder charges in
connection with the Staying of a
White House policeman last No
vember l while allegedly attempt
ing to assassinate President Tru-
man. The trial is expected to last
about two weeks.
White House Policeman Leslie
Coffelt was slain in the bloody gun
battle outside Blair House while
Collazo and an accomplice. Girl
selio Torresola, tried to get to
President Truman inside. Tore
sola, who also was slain during the
gun battle. was named in a four
count indictment with Collazo,
who was captured after being shot
in the shoulder.
First Degree Murder.
The first count of the indict-
ment charges first degree murder
through generalization.
The second count charges Col
lazo and Torresola killed Officer
Cofelt while they were attempt
ing to commit the crime of house
breaking into Blair House. This
! count also accuses them of at
tempting to enter the house with
intent to murder the President ~
The other two counts accuse the
two Puerto Ricans of assault with
intent to kill in connection with
the shooting and wounding of two
other White House policemen,
Officers Joseph H. Downs and
Donald T. Birdzell.
Collazos trial is to be before
Judge T. Alan Goldsboro. Selec-
ton of the jury is scheduled to
begin at 10 am. tomorrow.
Fay Heads Prosecution.
United States Attorney George
Morris Fay and Assistant United
States Attorneys John w. Fihelly
and John D. Lane will handle the
prosecution.
Former United States Attorney
Leo A. Rover, a veteran trial
lawyer. is chief defense counsel,
He will be assisted by Attorneys
Kenneth D. Wood and Sidney S.
Sachs. The three defense coun-
sells were court appointed.
| The prosecution has listed ap-
proximately $50 Government wit
nesses, but expects to call only
about 40 to testify.
Whether bullets from Collazo's S
gun or those fired by Torresola
killed Officer Coffelt will make
no difference, it has been indi-
Gated by the prosecution. AS the
two were together, Collazo can
be convicted of the crime regard
less of which of the Puerto Ricans
did the actual killing.

contained in a recent memoran-
dunn to the Commissioners from
Acting Civil Defense Director
John E. Fondahl. 1t is under
study at the District Building
now.
In an effort to increase the pace
of civil defense organization ir
tne city, leaders OF all operating
agencies of the organization have
sbeen called to District Building
meeting scheduled at 2 pm. to.
morrow. The group will be filled
in on recent developments on thu
Federal level and will be asked II
report on their own progress.
The appointment of a deputy
director for civil defense plan!
and training is expected to b,
announced soon. District Officials
are reported to favor former

pointment is made. it will be tn,

tions to be filled. Assistant direc.
tors are yet to be found for ad.
