This decision was arrived at after

NO NEED FOR CHANGE oF LAWS.
Commissioner FouIIxe on Civil Serv-
ice Provisions.

In my opinion, there is no necessity
for Congress TO amend the Civil Service
law said Civil Service Commissioner
Fou1ke this morning.
"Of course, the present law is not per-
feet in all its details, but it is pretty
good law as it stands. 1t is broad and
covers the subject generally. It is en-
forced and, as rule, observed by all the
officials of the Government.
There is no occasion for the Commits
sion to engage in a controversy with
Congress on the subject of amendment
to the law The President is clothed with
full power Of extending the operation of
the law and the record shows that from
time to time since the enactment of the
Pendleton act each President has taken
occasion to enlarge the merit system by
extending the classified service"
Although Commissioner FouIke did not
say SO, it is known that within a few
weeks some important amendments to
the civil service rules will be submitted
to the President, and if approved several
thousand positions will be taken in the
classified service.
