He may reject such nonlina- ton and ask for another but may not ommend the appointment of anyone without such nomination. A similar course should be pursued with regard to the personnel of the state directors office.
 Applicants for positions as exam incrs in local branch offices should likewise be examined and recom- mended to the state director by the community labor boards.
 Such state advisory board and the community labor boards shall have power to recommend fGn1OValS III their respective fields. If an officer in charge of the main office in any city does not concur in a recommen- dation for removal by the community labor board of a man under him, or in any branch office, he may submit the matter for decision to the state advisory board.
