COOLIDGE TO STAND BY
PERSONNEL BOARD ORDER

President Coolidge has no inten
ton Of interfering with the person
mel situation in the various Gov
eminent departments.
1t was made clear today at the
White House that he will stand by
his executive order recently issued
giving the Personnel Classification
Board control over discharges and
demotions, and that he does not
contemplate any modification OF
the order.
The President Is confident that
the executive order will work out
for the best interests of the Fed
eral employees. So far no special
protest or objection to the order
has been made to him, and he does
not feel any should be, made until
the new system has been given a
fair trial.
