A Call To Baptist

Making final appeal to the Bap-
lists of the South to give their f.
nancial support in the million dol
lar campaign being waged by the
home mission board Of the Southern
Baptist Convention, DR.. D. B. Gray,
of Atlanta, corresponding secretary
and executive head of the board,
has sent to Baptist ministers all
over the South the following state
ment: "The fiscal year of the South
ern Baptist home mission board
ends on April 80. Tomorrow is the
last Sunday Of the financial cam
paign. We need million dollars to
close the year free of debt. To do
this we must have the combined
help of our people, rich and poor.
Men of means must give as they
have given in other great drives and
the masses of the people must have
hand in the task. we have had
the greatest year of our history in
results achieved in the work OF
evangelism among our soldiers,
among the Indians, foreigners and
negroes in Cuba and Panama, in
muontain missions and schools and
in church extension. The crisis is
serious, but with our forces united
in sacrifcial giving victory is GER
tain. We can then face the impera-
tive demands of the new year with
courage and confidence" The final
, report of the home mission board
will be made to the Southern Bap-
tist Convention which meets in At
lanta May 14-21.

BoIshevism Tottering

Advising Hungarians not to make
the mistake Russian Bolshevists
have made, rLenine asks the Paris
peace conference for terms upon
which Russia may regain recogni-
ton and standing among nations.
His armies surrendered to the Uk-
rainians, Ttrotzky undertakes last
desperate moves in the Archangel
district and in Siberia, while enjoy
ing momentary success in the Ural
region. Thus evidence multiplies
that Bolshevism is tottering, even
in its strongholds.
Bolsheyism fail because it is class
autocracy, and the world is now
committed to democracy; because in
destroying accumulated wealth it
makes no provision for future pro-
duction beyond the bare necessities
of its dependents; because in tear
ing down the very institutions which
have given society its security, op-
portunity and development, it fails
to supply others adequately meeting
human wants under which society
may safely build for the future.
Bolshevism is a blight upon every
thing it touches.
In this country Bolshevism is los
ing ground. Its appeal is to ignor-
ance, and not to intelligence. Amer
leans are the most intelligent peo-
pie on earth. Rejected here, it is los
ing its appeal elsewhere. The people
of these United States exert uncon-
sciously, perhaps, tremendous in
fluence on the people Of other coun-
tries, and their rejection of Bolshe-
vism is a tremendous factor in the
decline of this devilish ism.

j. s. CLERKS CAN
EXPECT CHANGES
Salaries and Duties Shifted
Under Similar RecIassifiCa-
ton in New York.

Federal employees in the District of
Columbia can get some idea of what
is coming to them in the great re
classification now in progress here by
pcrusing the report of the New York
senate committee on civil service in re
lation to the standardization of the
public employment of that state. The
report was made in 1916, and is re-
Sarded as standard
While the joint congressional COM
mission on Redistribution of salaries
in the District is in no sense cudeav-
oring to pattern its work or final re-
port to Congress after the work and
report of the New York committee
on civil service, ii is known that the
members of the Joint commission be
neve that the report made in New
York is perhaps the best report OF its
kind eNtant.
Looping off unnecessary positions
and cutting down the pay of overpaid
state workers were two big jobs aC-
"ompllShed ny the New York commit
tee. Just how far similar conditions
exist in Washington is hard for any
one to say at this time. hut it is

positions in the government ScrNiC"

Three Standards Considered.

Standard titles, standard work re-
Quirements and standard duties were
the three big aims of the New York
committee. standard minimum quail
ncationS for appointment, advance
ment and promotions and standard
rates of compensation were no less
important aims of the reclasSifica-
tioniStS.
ITO him that hath shall be given"
was a law which applied in the rec
concentrations made by the commit
tee regarding annual increases. This
was a most important subject in New
York state, as it is in the work of re-
classifying the federal workers of
the District.
In New York it was recommended
that the amount of increases should
bear a direct relation to the salaries
paid and should he consistently gov
erned by a uniform standard sched-
ule. This schedule called for annual
increments- as follows: $3.50 to
12OO, $50; $1,000 to $500 S120: 500
TO $4,000. $3.50: $1,000 to $500 S24O.
and above that, 5000 annual incre-
ment.
The question of dealing with OBJ
viously overpaid employees was solved
as follows: Overpaid employees of
$3.50. with a record for efficient serv-
ice, were not reduced. Overpaid en-
p.oyeS in excess of 1850, "to continue
to receive an excess of 10 per cent
over and above the maximum amount
10 which they would normally be en-
titled"
The final report cut down the num-
her of position names tremendously.
The list of employees Of the state
were put under ten services. which,
with the number of groups in each.
follow: Executive. managerial 4:
professional and scientifis, "a: inspec-
tional. IA: investigational and exam
lining. Is: clerical. 10: educational,
10: institutional. SO; skilled labor. "a.
and labor. s.
The clerical service was divided as
follows: Bookkeeper, clerk, employ
ment agent. interpreter. private sec
rotary. process server and messen-
ger. stenographer. supervisor of pub
LEGATIONS. telephone operator and
'ypist.
All positions in the reclassification of
services were grouped according TO:
/. Distinctive elements of training
and experience governing original
appointment
.. Distinctive conditions with re-
spect to character and importance of
employment governing adVanCeme nt,
promotions and transfers.
,. Distinctive conditions with re-
spect 70 character and Importance
governing compensations.

all jobs and positions the ComTlittec
