Gessford, superintend- ent of police, and the proposal to ap- point a man from outside of the Dis- trict of Columbia, were severely criti- cised and condemned at a meeting of the Brightwood Citizens' Assoclation held in the New Masonic Temple,| Brightwood. The work of Maj. Gess- ford during his forty-one years of service in the department was lauded vy speakers, followed by the adoption of resolutions ‘on his retirement and the appointment of his successor. The first resolution adopted praised his work and that of the department and expressed the kindly feeling of the h |assoclation to him and regret that there is a possibility of his retiring from active duty on account of iilness, and at the same time expresses best wishes to him. The resolution bearing on the ap- pointment of his successor states: “That the assoclation, assuming the printed reports are true, regrets that the District Commissioners find it necessary to go outside of the District of Columbla for a chiet of police, when there are so many eflicient and capable men on the force who can fill the po- sition with credit. to themselves and with honor to the community. We feel more keenly this injustice since the people of the District of Columbia pay at least 60 per cent of the salary of the superintendent, who is or, it is said, about to be appointed.” Secre- tary L. F. Randolph was directed to send copies of the resolution to each of the District Commissioners. Regret Capt. Judge's Retirement, > The retirement of Capt. Thomas Judge of the tenth precinct, which in- cludes the Brightwood section, was also regretted in resolutions adopted, and hope was expressed that Lieut. A. J. Stoll, attached to the same pre- cinct, would be promoteg to fill the vacancy. As a result of the recent drive fifty- two new members were admitted to membership last night. The association again went on rec- ord as opposing the appointment of outsiders when a resolution referring to the appointment of a recorder of deeds was unanimously adopted. The resolution deplored the fact that va- rious offices in the District were filled by “outsiders.” Oppose School Location. Objection was made to the con- struction of a tuberculosis school at the corner of 14th and Upshur streets. In connection with school affairs Prof. Frank ) C. Daniel, principal of the Technical High School, addressed the association on the need of additjpnal facilities and suggested that the new school should be located in the north- ern part of the city. John P. Donlon addressed the meet- ing and told of the plans in connec- tion with the new subdivision to be known as Marietta Park. The Dis- trict Commissioners and Congress will be petitioned to secure an in- crease in the statutory employes of the District government, who, it was pointed out, are greatly underpaid. The statutory wage scale is $900 and less a year, making it impossible for for those dependant on him, it was declared. Ch.arlcs W. Ray presided. Probably a Dry Discourse.
