FOULKE CRITICIzES
ATTITUDE OF new ON
CIVIL SERVICE PLAN

> NEW YORK. April %. = William
Dudley Foulke, acting president of the
National Civil Service Reform league,
criticizes the spoilsmen in congress,
particularly Senators Moses and New,
and various members of the official
family of the administration In Wash
ington, mentioning specially Secretary
Davis, Attorney General Daugherty.
First Assistant Postmaster General
Bartlett and Assistant Secretary of the
/ Treasury Dover.
MIR. Foulke's criticisms are contain
ed in letter sending out a call for a
conference of organization and indi-
yiduals in Washington on the evening
of April %. The conference is to be
held in the auditorium of the Masonic
temple. Thirteenth street and New
York avenue.
Mr.. -Foulke calls attention to the re-
moval by the president of the en-
ployes of the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing without assigning any reason
for the removals and the apparent VIC
lation of the law in vesting the power
OF appointment of new employees in
the director of the bureau
His statement in part says:
There appears to be a dangerous
organized effort on the part of various
members of congress and others high
IN government places to weaken, Grip
pie and perhaps finally destroy the
present competitive system in the
civil service of the country In spite
OF the declaration in the Republican
platform that the civil service law
should not only be observed but ex-
tended. various prominent Republican
Senator's Moses and
New and Representative Williams and
many others, are insisting publicly
that Democrats should be removed
from office and Republicans put in
thelf places on account of their politi-
cal opinions. This would involve the
destruction of the merit system.
These things seem to be the begin
1nngs OF widespread political changes
winch call for an earnest protest from
those who believe in the competitive
system. If they are allowed to con
tlnue that system viii be undermined
and uprooted. and we shall return to
the deplorable spoils method of the
past. An Illustration exists even today /
IN the service for the enforcement of
prohlbltlon. where the appointments
are still political. This branch of the
service is so honeycombed with cor |
ruptlon that 1t is known that hun
nreds OF thousands of dollars of graft !
have been taken by those engaged in |
It, some of whom are under indict-5
ment"

is FIRM
FOR GOOD FAITH IN
SOLDIER BONUS BILL
BY MARK SULLIVAN

/
WASHINGTON, April Is Those
senators who want the bonus bill and
want it badly are as ingenious as J.
Rufus Wallingford, in devising WAYS
to pay it, without real money. To be
accurate, they are eager to pass some
thing that will look like a bonus bill
IN time to tide them over the pri-
maries and elections of this year and
leave the matter of finding the money
or OF evading the providing of real
money up in the air until they are
SAFELY IN office for another term.
But that is exactly the kind of
Donus Dill that Harding will never
sign. He will not approve any bill
that is not in good faith that fails to
provide means for raising the reve-
nue. to pay the bonus as a part of the
bonus bill itself
something new about the bonus bill
comes out every day, but there isn't
any real news in it.
only one concrete thing has hap
pened since Harding told Fordney it
should be bonus plus sales tax or no
bonus at all, that one thing is Secre-
tary Melons announcement that there
is going to be deficit of some hun
dreds of millions next year, even with
out taking the bonus into account.
That message from the hard-header.
accurate-minded custodian of the ma
tons money is obviously a thing to
strengthen Hardings determination.
Money Not in Sight
There iS NOT HING in, to-
the bonus up to the tariff, and there
isn't any more real money in sight
from our European debtors than there
was six months ago.
Perhaps it should be said that there
is one other concrete thing that has
happened about the bonus; that is
senator Borah's letter of defiance to
the bonus advocates, who threatened
him in his home state.
Borah has probably less to lose bv
such a defiance than most senators
nave. He is stronger in his home
state than almost any other senator.
Lots of people in Idaho vote for Borah
who don't more than half believe in
many of the things he does. Borarl
could burn down the capitol and Idaho
would continue eagerly to re-elect him
Number Increases
But Borah's action is significant of
the fact that there is an increasing
number of senators who are willing to
take a position against all varieties
OF bonus. The number is now prob
ABLY little upwards of twenty That
Vi course, is good deal less than
enough to prevent the passage of a
Donus Dill over the presidents veto. |
1T may not come to that, however, for
as soon as the senators realize that
Harding is firm they may try to find
some other way to approximate his
posltlon. In any event, real money in |
the soldiers pockets is not yet in sight
In the meantime your correspondent
