An illustration of the extent to
which politics is figuring in presi-
Dental postmastership is that at
Dayton, Ohio, which has become, &C
cording to the Dayton News. "a ma
tional scandal" which may become
the subject of Congressional in
quiry. ''It is a nasty mess" says
the Dayton News and adds: ''The
President of the United States has
no business being mixed up in it,"
The former postmaster there is
Forrest L. May, one time president
of the National Postmasters Asso-
citation, with many years Of service
in the Post Office Department, who
had worked himself up from minor
position. When the postmaster's
term expired. DR.. L. c. Weimer was
made acting postmaster, the order
nation held Aug 10th. with eleven
applicants, DR.. Weimer, we'll
known dentist, stood fifth on the list
which ordinarily would have put him
out of consideration under the Presi
dents executive order that appoint
pents should be made from the
highest three on the list. But 1t
seems, according to the Dayton News
he had been promised the Office of
Postmaster by the Republican boss;
md he continues to act as postmas-
ter.
The Civil Service Commission has
delayed certifcation of the list, due
20 the fact that charges have been
made against some of the eligibles,
necessitating investigation. but are
alleged to have been made for the
purpose of advancing DR.. Weimer to
third place.
The Dayton case is attracting at
tention throughout the country, and
its determination will be an an
sWer, in part, at least, whether or
not the civil service law is to be
made scrap of paper and the spells
system re-established in the appoint
ment of presidential postmasters.
