the Wilson administration it did not
work ont that way The postofflce
department has had more trouble
with civil service postmasters than il
did under the old system. The civil
service commission with its system
of examination has failed utterly in
securing efficient employees for the
government bureaus at Washington.
The mental tests of the civil service
examination have not given the gov
.ernment an efficient corps of en-
ployes. The civil service commission
has not yet devised any system Of
mental test which indicates accur-
ately a mans fitness for government
service.
Must Demonstrate Ability.
The army has recently modified its
system of examination of officers for
commissions and promotion. It is
now emphasizing the "demonstrative
ability" of candidates for commissions
and promotion ITO command" Private
concerns do not select their employees
by mere mental tests but must have
some tNlbtntt Oh tutii utINonStidAlFt
ability to FIJI the places in their ser
vice.
It is evident that the postmaster
general is endeavoring to inaugurate
this system of selecting postmasters.
An acting postmaster will have an
TO demonstrate his fitness
for the duties of the office. At the
same time, through the member OF
congress- the postofice department
win be able to secure an expression
of local sentiment as to who will
prove the most satisfactory as
postmaster.
Complain Of Present Service.
There was widespread .dissatisfac-
lion of the postal service under the
'ormer administration n the new
system works out satisfactorily, it
mas come to stay for it gives the
lostomce department as well as the
members of congress. more to say in
selecting postmasters than under the
Wilson civil service system.
