TWO-CENTDAY
FOR EMPLOYEES
That Sum Will Be Sought From
Workers in ReoIassifica- /
ton Campaign. |

Tomorrow will be two-cent day In
the Government departments, and IL
any employe gets through the day
without knowing what reclassinca-
tion means It will not be the fault Of
the joint conference on reclassinca-
tion.
Two cents sounds cheap In this day
OF expensive living, but q strong ef-
fort will be made to convince the
10000 Federal employees In this city
that 1t will be the best investment
they ever made for the price.
To boost rehabilitation and THE
Reclassincationist," q weekly publi-
cation furthering the interests OF pay
revision and the reorganization of
ments will be encircled with a pa
rade and music tomorrow.
The procession, In charge OF r. J.
Quinn, editor Of THE Reclassincationl
ist." will leave the offices OF the joint
conference. 1923 New York avenue
northwest at 10 o'clock tomorrow,
morning In a score OF automobiles
The route will lead out Fifteenth
street to the Department Of Justice,
to the War Risk Bureau, the Trea-
sury, the State War and Navy Build
government buildings. Not one office
will be overlooked.
The band OF the Bureau Of Engrav-
ing and Printing has volunteered its
services for the occasion. This pop
ular musical organization will head
the gaily decorated procession and
will play jazzy strains as u serenade
to the departments. 1t 10 expected
that 1t will be sort of an endurance
contest sor the band since 1t likely
will take the entire day before all
Of the public buildings can be visited,
The object OF the demonstration
will be to carry the idea OF reclassi-
fication to every employe; to show
that those in back of the movement
earnestly want reclassihcation Of the
civil service, and that II will be to
the advantage of every Federal work.
er to Join in the fight for better SAL
aries and working conditions.
The unstandardized and un-
equal civil service
Are you satisfied with this?
II not spend two cents a week
To get Standardization and
equalization subscribe to The
Reclassincationist."
The automobiles in the parade will
be placarded with slogans similar to
the above. In line will be a diiapi-
dated vehicle, with front and rear
wheels reversed, drawn by a sleepy
mule, to be emblematical OF the un-
standardized civil service as it exists
today. In contrast with this will be

want to state very frankly that my
administration OF the schools OF
Washington will be strictly in accord

There Is another important con-
sideration which prompted my favor

with individual members Of the board
and with the nominating committee,
no member of the board undertook
to impose any conditions unon my
acceptance of the position. The board
discussed the situationS frankly and
freely. They asked some of the citi-
zens of Washington to describe to
me in detail the local situation in
order that l might be fully informed
before reaching the decision. | came
to Washington therefore without any
feeling Of restraint and subject to no
understandings or conditions imposed
as part Of my acceptance of the posi-
tion.
II am absolutely free to discharge
the functions imposed upon the super
intendent Of schools by law. l shall
undertake to do so with malice to-
ward none and with justice for all"
