PROMOTION Chance
SHOWN j. s. CLERKS
lehlbach Emphasizes Merit
Reward in Discussing Re-
. classification.

In its Redistribution of government
employees it is the aim Of Congress
not only to increase the rate OF their
in the service better opportunity for
promotion and to give due recogni-
tien to efficiency and merit. when
such employees take their jobs seriously.
This was the keynote of BRIEF TAX
by Representative F. r. Lehlbach, au-
thor of the Redistribution measure
now before the House, who addressed
the clerical group of the federal EN-
ployes organization last night az me
Public Library. where they me. 10
discuss the bill.
AS a result of the meeting COM
mittee was appointed to prepare a
brief representing the views OF the
group, and if advisable to appear pc
fore the committees of the House ana
Senate when the measure is under
consideration.
There is not a clerical empioye IN
the government service who Will not
receive an immediate pecuniary al
vantage when the bill becomes
ture alone would gain it few adher-
ents in Congress or elsewhere. more
important is the matter of advancing
the government workers, first accord,
ing to length of service, and second
according to their efficiency during
that service.
He added that Congress did not pro-
pose to. encourage promotion merely
because an employee had managed to
keep from getting fired" for an ex-
tended length of time.
Questions were asked of the menu
Der by those present and at the con-
clusion OF his talk he was most near
tily applauded by his audience. He
admitted that there was nothing in
the bill to give relief to an employe
who might be picked on" by SUI
perior. but said that such cases were
not common and that it would be i'm
possible to correct all abuses by the
passage OF single law.
