WILL TEST EFFICIENCY.
Board Of Public Affairs to Have Spot
ter on State Official Positions.

Board Of Public Affairs to Have Spot
ter on State Official Positions.
| The state board of public affairs to-
| day announced the appointment of G.
iC .Sprague, of Milwaukee, as an ex-
lpert on personal efficiency among the
employees of the state of Wisconsin.
He will make study of such matters
ployes, salaries, efficiency, records, etc.
He will begin work February /. He is
now supervisor of apprenticeship train
ing courses and general assistant in
efficiency work for the Allis-C Chalmers
company at Milwaukee. He is a grad
uate of the University of Toronto.
In its larger phases this work is ex-
peeted to result in a general reorgani-
cation and betterment of the civil SER
vice and employment methods of the
state. Of first Importance is securing
the best available men. Some corpora
tions have worked out methods of
|, getting into touch with large numbers
of good prospects for all their lines
of employment, and the board believes
that such systems are worth studying
with the possible application to state
employment.
The work to be undertaken will be
directed also to securing men proper
ly trained or experienced. Attention
will be paid to understudy and appren-
ticeship methods, practical training in
technical work under expert heads,
and cooperation for short training
courses with outside agencies, such as
the extension division. Experiments
in this direction in connection with
the Milwaukee bureau work are claim
ed to have given striking results. For
the system proposed, employments
would need to be classified with con-
siderable range of salary in each class
and promotion made fairly when earn
ed. The board believes it is import
ant that department lines Of pro-
motion to more important positions be
established SO that there is a posi-
bility Of stepping up for efficiency all
along the line.
A half-pay or pension system, so that
employees beyond the ages of the best
efficiency have something definite to
look forward to, and at the same time
are not left burden upon the depart
ments, would be an essential point in
complete efficiency system.

JUDGE HECK TO QUIT
County Judge of Racine
County to Send Resigna-
ton to Governor.
MAY SEEK HIGHER POSITION

Announcement has been made in
Racine that Judge Max w. Heck, who
has been county judge of Racine
county for the past ten years, will
tender his resignation to the governor
within the next few days. No cause
is given for the proposed action of
Judge Heck, but Racine papers indi-
cate that the judge may have a desire
to be candidate for higher judicial
position. This is not the reason given
by the friends of Judge Heck as they
assert that the judge viii quit the
bench with view Of returning to
private practice. Walter c. Palmer, a
Racine attorney we'll known in Keno
sha, is being mentioned as a successor
to Judge Heck and petitions asking
Governor McGoyern to name him for
the Office are now being circulated in
Racine
Racine newspaper men suggest that
Judge Heck is planning to be candi-
date for judge of the circuit court in
the event that Judge Belden is named
to succeed the late Judge Quarles on
the United States bench. Konosha
people interested in the proposed
changes in judgesbips hold that the
appointment of United States judge
is too much in doubt to warrant any
active campaign for any one who
would succeed Judge Belden at the
present time. 1t is pretty certain that
if Judge Belden is net named to the
United States bench that he will re-
main on the circuit bench as long as
he desires to hold the Office and there
will be plenty of time for candidates
for circuit judge to present their
claims to the governor after the cir
cult judge is advanced. Judge Cliff
ford e. Randall of Kenosha, is being
mentioned in connection with the of
fee of circuit judge in the event Of the
advancement of Judge Belden, but this
friends appreciate fully that there is
no use to make campaign for him
until there is some certainty of a
vacancy.
