there has been a wide difference of
opinion among the Commissioners as
to what constitutes economic wick

letter from Chairman Deming of the
Civil Service Commission.
In making this appointment Presi-
dent Coolidge disposes of what was
becoming a troublesome matter be-
cause of controversies that arose dur
ing the consideration Of the several
more prominent woman candidates.
The President has now not only re-
lieved himself of whatever disturbance
these controversies may have caused
him, but he has the inward Satisfac-
ton of again demonstrating his de-
sire to promote from the ranks In
making the more important appoint
ments of the Government. Miss Dell
had been in the classified service for
25 years, and the highest position she
ever held under the classified service
was chief of a division in the division
of finance of the War Department.
Miss Dell a Democrat.
Miss Dell is a Democrat, and was
born in Sylvania, Scriven County, Ga.
That's near Savannah, Ga" Miss
Dell explained in an effort to make 1t
understood where Sylvania is located.
Miss Dell's family can be readily
classed with the aristocracy Of that
section. Her father, John c. Dell, was
proud of his service in the Confed-
crate army, but when the war was
over he applied himself to the law
and became one of the most promi-
nent men in the legal profession of
that part of the State. Miss Dell
said today that she owes much to
her father, because he was one of
the few men of the South at the time

MISS JESSIE DELL APPOINTED
CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSIONER
Has Served Federal Gov
ernment Here for
25 Years.
Admits New Duties Are
Strange-Selection Is
Surprise.
BY j. RUSSELL YOUNG.

Miss Jessie Dell who for quarter
of century was an employe of the
Federal Government. and who has
been appointed by President Coolidge
to the United States Civil Service
Commission to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Mrs. Helen Gardener
will take the oath of office this after
noon and VIII at once enter upon her
new duties.
Taking Miss Dell at her word, these
new duties are new to her. too. She
admitted today that she has the same
general Idea of the work of the Civil
Service Commission as the average
Government employe, but as for being
an authority or being especially we'll
posted as to the policies and plans of
the commission, she said she could not
be so classed. But Miss Dell made 1t
very plain that she is going to lose
no time in an effort to master every
thing pertaining to the civil service
act and the commission of which she
will be member.
She said she is an ardent believer
in the principles of civil service and
while she is not yet we'll versed
enough to say whether there is any
urgent need for reforms, it Is her
theory that nothing, no matter how
popular or successful it may be, is
beyond perfection.
appointment a Surprise.
Although Miss Dells name had
been mentioned prominently in con-
nectlon with the Presidents consid-
Grafton of a successor to Mrs. Garde-
ner, her appointment was a surprise
in most quarters. Miss Dell herself
was about as surprised as any one.
She said so herself today.
1T almost knocked me off my feet
when l read of my appointment in a
late edition of last nights Star" she
said
She had not heard anything official
regarding her selection until after 10
o'clock this morning, and although
her telephone was ringing from an
early hour. she answered her many

congratulate her, that she supposed
it was true, but thought she had bet

tions until she had some official con-
firmation of the good news. The lat

place to which she has been ap-
pointed.
Miss Dell accepted an offer of the
department to join the force to take
charge Of the work in France of reg
istering the graves of the American
soldiers who fell during the World
War. This was in 1920. She remaiNu
ed engaged in this work for nearly a
year, and shortly afterward, in 1921.
resigned from the service. She had
worked hard for a number of years.
and as she explained it. she wanted
a rest.
Returned After Year.
Whether or not she got this rest
sooner than she expected Miss Dell
does not say, but in years tims
she was back in the Government work
again. When she responded to this
longing to return to the service after
her retirement she found upon apply
ing for reinstatement to her former
place that the best she could get
was a temporary appointment. She
was assigned to a special audit and
examination Of war contracts, and
when this appropriation was all spent
during the past Summer Miss Dell's
position expired, and she, along with
StSeIdl nuHifeu OCHeFS, was QEOppcl
from the Government rolls.
When asked today how she happen
ed to become a candidate for the Civil
Service Commission, Miss Dell replied
that she really never became a candt-
date herself and that she had at no
time thought she would be seriously
considered by the President to fill the
place made vacant by Mrs. Gardener s
death. Miss Dell said that she per-
mitted her name to be presented to
the President when urged by a number
of her friends, but no one was more
surprised than she when the Presi.
dent selected her
When this vacancy arose some of
my friends came to me and urged me
to permit my name to be submitted
to the President" Miss Dell said by
way of explanation. That's how 1t
all started"
Miss Dell said today that she un-
derstood that opposition had presented

been a militant member of the .Wom-

been among those OF that party who
picketed the White House during
President Wilson's administration and
who publicly burned some of his
speeches. She said that while she
had been a member of the party from
the very first she had never picketed
nor did she engage in burning any OF
President Wilson's speeches. She ex-
planned that while she was an ardent

Started as Clerk Here.

Miss Dell received her first position
for the Government in the immediate
office of the Secretary of War. 1t was
just a minor clerkship, but she took it
very seriously, more so than anything
she had ever done before, she said to-
day in talking about early activities.
1t was soon discovered that this young
lady from Georgia possessed a little
more than the average intelligence,
and had had little more than the
average education, and besides, she
was handy with figures. Therefore
she was soon transferred to the quar-
termaster's department of the Army,
where she was assigned to the ac-
counts division.
She remained there until the World
War, when the finance division of the
