Park Police Feuds Linked
ToHobbIes on Discipline

even discipline in the force.
DR.. Lejins said that most of the
men interviewed were convinced
that influential connections
could prevent or modify puni-
tive measures against officers
by applying pressure on Interior
Department officials.
Both investigators said that
the present disciplinary ma
chinery, which involved action
by several levels inside the In
terror Department as we'll as
police officials, was one Of the
major defects in the depart
ment.
INTRIGUES: At least a
dozen officers, interviewed by
DR.. Lejins, told a tale of in
trigue that would match the
account of any palace coup.
They told of a conflict be-
tween a former superintendent
of National Capital Parks and
the chief Of police during his
tenure. THE alleged rift"
the report stated, involved
investigations of the chief by
members Of his own staff at
the request of the superintend-
ent, councils Of war held by
the subordinate officers with
the superintendent regarding
means of getting rid of the
chief"
More recently, the report
said, the officers loyal to Chief
Stewart accused the chiefs
opponents of both direct and
subtle sabotage of the work of
the force"
DR.. Lejins said that intrigue
is still very much in evidence
in the department, and that
hatred among several top-level
officials is widely recognized
throughout the force.
The investigator said that no
matter what other remedial
measures are taken to correct
the situation, the value to the
force of the men most directly
associated with the feud has
been greatly reduced.
while nobody should be
blamed completely as an indi-
vidual for the internal disor-
ganization which has clearly |
been caused by the disrupting |
external factors :, it is high
ly doubtful that persons who
have been engaged in a person.

duration of the one in question |

told stories of officers using
Congressional and Interior De-
partment connections to gain
favorS or to protect them
against disciplinary action
taken by their Superiors.
He said there was an adage
in the force which illustrated
this type of interference: In
order to survive in the Park
Police, the officer has to have
a Congressman and a lawyer
on his staff"
To illustrate the charge of
outside interference, DR.. Lejins
cited a story told to him in de-
tail by several of the officers
interviewed. The officers said
that a powerful Congressional
lobbiest was involved in a Sc
rious auto accident in Park
Police territory many years
ago, and was later exonerated
for lack of evidence.
According to the story, the
report on the accident was
changed, the original accident
report disappeared from the
files, and the investigating Of
Ificer was given a promotion at
the insiStence of a powerful
Congressman.
PROMOTIONS: Based on in
terviewS with veteran members
of the force and even with re-
tired members, DR.. Lejins con-
cluded that most park police
men believe that promotions for
the last 80 years have been
based on factors other than
ability.
Some of the officers inter-
viewed blamed favoritism by
the chief for the disquiet about
promotions. Others cited out
side influence. "Favoritism Is
really the most frequent COM
plant of the officers inter-
viewed" the report said.
The investigator said tha

was a constant complaint O.
the officers, many of whom
cited examples of unfair prac
tices back to the 1930s.
The report had some praise
however, for the present polict
administration concerning thu
promotion situation: "The pres,
ent administration has system
atically attempted to introduce
more effective, equitable, anC
modern promotion policies anC
procedures to replace the ole
seniority rule :. (These pro,
cedureS) are all steps in thu
right direction"
DISCIPLINE: The Lejins re-
port examined closely tn,

ing to the store to pick up his
wife, who was in the back
room, also entered.
HE stuck the knife in my
back and threatened me if I
didn't get him the money" Mr..
Ponack told the detectives.
At that point, however, po-
lice said, Mrs. Ponack came out
of the back room, saw the
knife and screamed. The ban
dit dashed out the door and
ran north on Eleventh street,
without getting a dime.
AS usual, the bandit left his
calling cards, principally the
knife, which each time appears
to be new. Yesterday he
dropped it in a parking lot,
again the usual pattern. This
time it was at Tenth and H
streets, just a block from the
shop.
Also as he has done in the
past, he left a pajama top,
which he was wearing when he
entered the store; the woman's
stocking, and a tan cap. These
were found in the shop en-
tranceWay. In the past, he has
left a lightweight jacket in
stead of a pajama top.
Police LII. Shirley ONeil said
the long-sought bandits jobs
now total 80 in the District and
five in Maryland. All except
yesterdays were successful for
a total of nearly $4,000.
His last previous job, 1t.
O'Neil said, was last July %,
when he took $3.50 from the
Carol Ann Hat Shop, 310 Sew
