POLICE PROMOTION | PLAN IS APPROVED System to Be Revised to Advance Practical Rather Than Theoretical Officers. The plan of Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, | superintendent of police, for revising the system of promotions in the Po lice Department, was approved yes terday afternoon by the Civil Service Commission. The details, however, wil' be worked out at conferences be- tween representatives of the commis- sion and police officials. The first of these conferences will be held in the District Building Fri- day afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. The commission will be represented by Dr. Arthur R. Butler and Frederick H, Brown. j. Hesse and Inspectors will represent the Police Department. The new promotion plan is design- ed to make it possible for practical rather than theoretical policemen to obtain advancement in rank. Maj. has proposed that in the ex- tion of officers seeking pro- motion 50 per cent be allowed for service, training and record and the remaining 50 per cent for a written test on legal questions and the police manual and regulations. The new proposes to prevent men cing in rank until they d a specified number of details governing the length | of service for each rank and the type | of examination for each grade, whid will differ, are to be worked out at the conferences. Maj. Hesse plans to put the new plan into effect as soon as possible, as there are a num- | ber of pending 'promotions resulting from_the recent death of Asst. Supt. | Charles A. Evans. \CLAUGHTON ESTATE EXCEEDS $125,000 Former Banker and Lawyer Owned Property Here and in Virginia. Richard E.
