Ousted Fireman Held
Entitled to Pension

A District Court Judge says
a District fireman was properly
dismissed after his conviction
for embezzlement. but that the
District government should pay
him retirement benefits.
Judge Alexander Holtzoff de-
cided yesterday to defer his rul-
ing in the case after hearing
the plea Of former Fire Depart
ment Capt. Emile j. Daigle of
1923 Texas avenue Sc. for re-
instatement >and more than
$4,000 in back pay.
Mr.. Daigle was convicted in
March. 1857, and placed on
probation for three years for
embezzling funds from the
Firemen's Family and Fraternal
Relief Association when he was
secretary-treasurer.
The fire captain was dis
missed, from, the department in
June, 1859, after a trial board
found him guilty of conduct

office sent Q cents to each per-
son supplying the information,
he said.
In his case against her, Mr..
McCally summoned nine wit
nesses from Wisconsin. Illinois.
New York. Maryland and Vir-
ginia who had received forms
from Mrs. Wacksman. The
witnesses testified the forms
indicated to them the sender
was an agency of the Federal
Government, Mr.. McCally said.
Mrs. Wacksman, who testi-
iied in her own behalf, charged
that "other firms are carrying
on the Skip-tracing business
but I was singled out as q
guinea pig"
She said the cards were not
intended to convey the fact
that they were from the United
States Government.
She said she discussed the
1859 law with an attorney and
as q result of the talk added
the following words to her
cards: This Is not a depart
ment. agency, bureau or in
strumentality Of the United
States"
Mrs. Wacksman's attorney,
Leonard B. Sussholz, asked
that she be allowed to remain
free on $500 bond until Judge
Harry l.. Walker sentences her.
He said he will ask Judge
Walker to overturn the jury
verdict. If the verdict stands,
he said. he will appeal.

full retirement benefits to Mr..
Daigle.
Though Judge Holtzof said
the District Commissioners
could not have done otherwise
when they approved the dis
missal. he felt it would be
hard" to deprive Mr.. Daigle Of
retirement benefits. He said
Mr.. Daigle had paid into the
District retirement fund since
his employment In the depart.
ment in 1928.
Judge Holtzoff said that pay
ing into a retirement fund is
like buying insurance"
And he added, that II Daigle
receives no more than the
amount he paid into the fund"
"a step the District is willing
to take-he probably would have
to go on relief and "be a fur
ther burden to the community"
The judge held of any final
decision until the District gov
ernment provides further infor-
nation on the retirement bene-
fit question.

Tomato and Potato
Fields Need Spraying

Tomato and potato fields should
be sprayed to protect them from
loss due to plant diseases.
Late blight, apparently original
ing from seed-piece infections in
potato fields, is reported from
southeastern Pennsylvania, (Ad-
ans, York and Lancaster coun.
ties). Cool, wet weather favors the
spread of late blight.
DR.. L. O. Weaver, University OF
Maryland plant pathologist sug-
gests that tomato fields be pro
tected from losses due to early
blight, anthracnose, grey leaf spot
as well as late blight. Early blight
and leaf spot cause following and
rapid defoliation of leaves when
the plants are carrying heavy
crop. Anthracnose is a disease
of ripe fruits.
Tomato spray mimeos are avail
able from county agents. Limita-
lions of pesticides with regard to
residues are listed on the mimeo
Fungicides zineb and maneb are
recommended. Spraying is neces-
sary to produce a crop, especial
ly in wet year or when vines are
rank.
