EVASION OF THE Civil SERVICE Law
IN Administration OF POST OFFICES

League; President National Mu-

did he limit this to the mere ques-
tons of residence or character as the
law required
II the number of applicants for
these places had been numerous as
in most other classified positions, the
consequence OF this violation OF the
law might not have been so serious.
Where there are so or 100 names upon
an eligible list and the appointing
officer must make his selection from
the three highest, the Congressman
cannot always get tha man he wants,
but in these small places there are
very seldom more than three appli-
cants The reports Of the civil service
commission show that the average
number IS even less than this SO that
if the congressman's recommendation
CONTROLS as among these three, then
all the fourth class postmasterships
are practically thrown back into spoils
politics where they we're before che
classification was made.
Called to Attention.
The National Civil Service Reform
League called the attention of Post.
master General Burleson to the fact
that his statement involved violation
Of the law His answer was that this
section lis intended to prohibit the
consideration of recommendation
from congressman based, not on the
qualification or fitness of the appli-
cants, but or their political affilia-
tons, and hold 1t to be no violation
of this provision to give consideration
to any pertinent information relative
to applicants furnished by members
of congress not in their capacity OF
members OF a political party but as
representatives of their districts and
Of the postal communities interested
in the service!"
Postmaster General Burleson's con.
struction. nullifies not only the spirit
but the literal and precise language of
the act. AS President Dana of the
National league we'll observes, Under
such construction a judge prohibited
by law from sitting in a case in which
he has any interest might ignore the
law giving as his reason that he was
not to sit in his capacity of a person
interested but as an impartial Judge!"

President Wilson himself, who is q
protested civil service reformer, but
no measures have been taken to undo
the wrong or to secure the enforce.
ment of the law
If the present administration had
desired to throw these fourth class
misunderstanding again into the reeking
mass of political spoils it could have
done this by the perfectly legal method
of withdrawing them from the CLASH
fled service. That would have been
not only legal but honest. It would
have been a trifle disreputable. But
how much more discreditable is 1t to
do the same thing by indirection, by
method which hypocritically pre-
tends to retain these places in the
classified system and yet delivers
them irredeemably into the hands Of
spoilsmen? With what consistency
can the rulers of our nation denounce
or prosecute offenders against other
statutes when they themselves thus
set the example?
