CIVIL SERVICE BOARD
Jacob Neu and DR.. Wolff Re-
fuse to Quit-Ordway Slated
for One Job.
CIRCULARS" NOT PLEASED

ALRANr. Jan. Gov whitman will
send a special message to the Legislature
next wednesday asking that the present
state Civil Service Commission be legis-
lated out OF office and the civil service
law amended so that he can name new
commission. The Governor regards the
appointment OF new commission as one
of the things most important in his ad-
ministration.
The present commission consists OF
Jacob Neu Of Brooklyn. Dr. Meyer WOLF
Of Manhattan. Democrats. and James A.
Lavery Of Poughkeepsie Republican. The
Governor said he had asked them to re-
sign. and that Mr.. Lavery voluntarily had
rendered his resignation, even before the
request reached him. The other two re-
fused to reliuaush their jobs. The salary
OF the Commissioners Is $4,000
The Governor said he wants TO get
Samuel Ordway OF New York as chairman
Of his new commission. Mr.. Ordway, VINO
is president Of the Civil Service Asso-
citation, has been in Albany for several
days and Mr. Whitman said to-day that
Mr.. ,Ordway had given him some valuable
information about the workings OF the
present commission.
what reasons have you FOR asking Tor
a new commission Gov Whitman was
asked
"why. the number Of places they have
exempted il enough the Governor an
swered. I'm my message l called atten-
ton to the state Labor Department and
the Workmen's Compensation Commission.
where a huge number e big places are
exempted but the same thing Is true IN all
departments.
'The Civil Service Commission of course
IL not entirely to blame, but the commits
sion certainly was responsible Tor the en-
forcement Of the law and no one can say
the law was enforced by the commission.
Matters come up every day In my office
which prove this
The Governor said hc favored hi
partisan commission of three, not more
than two members OF which shall be OF
the sdi-c political party.
Mr.. Ordway is AN enrolled Republican,
GOV. whitman said. There had been talk
that he was q Democrat. 1t Is said that
the other Republican to be named by the
Governor is Editor r. l.. Allen Of James
town IN Senator Frank !. Loouis oi
Buffalo. william Gorham Rice OF Albau!
and hbram |. Elkus OF New YORK are
mentioned for the appointment as the
Democratic member.
Organization Republicans do not take
kindly TO the proposed personnel OF the
nov commission. They do not feel thai
this will make Just tho Kind of civil
service board the organization wants
trov. Whitmans friends have advised him
Ut this feeling but he has not change,
his mind. MANY are wondering what the
creation of civil service committee II
the Senate has to do with the possibility
that Gov Whitmans nominations for the
civil service board will not be acceptable

A. there will be legislation affecting
the Ciyil Service Commission. however u
IS pointed ont that this new ciNil service
committee might not only put together
such legislation but might also lay dow
certain rules to he followed ny the new

the French Government, called for the
