WASHINGTON, May 6.-The executive
committee Of the Isthmian Can al Com
mission at its meeting to-day took up
the question Of placing the employees on
the Isthmus under q civil service system.
1t Is planned 10 establish a system similar
TO that now In operation in the Philippines,
which has proven very satiEfactory. Many
complaints have been made by employees
who went TO the Isthmus TO work on the
canal In some capacity OF other that the
promotions they had reason 70 expect had
nos come.
To meet this dissatisfaction the eIeou-
tive committee has decided 10 place all Of
the skilled workmen under a system Of
promotion by merit. When the new plan
has been put In operation q man will be
able TO procure such Advancement as he
deserves A leave Of absence Of six weeks
each year viii be granted 70 canal en-
ployeeS, and provision will also be made
10 pay the transportation Of men from
New York 10 the Isthmus

view Of making the life OF its employees
IN Panama much more pleasant. A series
Guiding baseball, tennis, golf and other
games, In this manner II Is hoped that
their life in Panama Will be made much
moro pleasant and attractive.
Included In the general plan now before
the committee iS the giving Of the more
important positions, such as heads and
deputy heads Of various departments
and branches Of the canal work, to men
who have been on the Isthmus and who
have worked there Hereafter when a
vacancy comes II viii be filed, II possible,
by one Of the employees already there,
and not by some one from the United States
who happens to be especially fitted for
the place.
Another detail is the establishments Of a
system whereby employees who have been
on the Isthmus for two years may be brought
back TO the United States and placed In
the home service.
