IN TABOO
Commissions Previous Policy
! on What Is improper for
Employees Outlined

The printed civil service
rules, dating back to the re-
forms of Theodore Roosevelt,
which survive every change Of
Administration will be main
Eained in spirit even though
high officials differ on the
scope or subjects they should
cover, it was made clear today.
President Hoover has indicated
Through his Cabinet he does not
want Federal employees in the
classified civil service forbidden
expression on such subjects as
the tariff, prohibition, the bonus,
foreign relations and other topics
of general interest which cannot
be considered strictly partisan
matters. ..
"BibIe" Is Strict
The first rule in the civil
service bible" expressly forbits
them and members Of their fam
lily from expressing publicly their
opinion on any political sub
3ect, or serving on committee
or in other active ways for or
against political" questions. They
may think as they please, vote
as they please, or express pri-
vately what they please, how.
ever.
It became evident today, that
only strictly partisan subjects
are at present taboo for them,
following the order to reinstate
the Indiana postal clerk who
was discharged for publicly urging
the bonus for veterans.
Before the Presidents new at
titude was made clear, President
Thomas E. Campbell, of the
Civil Service Commission, had
explained the commissions pre-
vious general policy thus:
Cites Success
"TheSe rules were drawn up
to combat the SpOiIs system, in
sure integrity Of Federal Jobs,
promote efficiency and proper
morale Of employees, and par
6cularly to protect them.
without these rules, we
could not protect workers who
risk discharge by political
activity. Out Of more than
,ASO,00O Federal classified em-
plOyeS, only 500 every year
come to our attention for pO-
litical activities. This shows
the system really works.
1--WE seeks to apply the true
meaning Of the word political
which is not synonymous with
partisan Thus, the bonus,
tariff, prohibition, war debts,
and other popular controversial
issues are not proper subjects
for Federal employees to wage
war for or against"

Thus on its positive side, 1892 has not been without it's evidences of larger outlook on politics.
 On its purely negative side, it has seen fewer changes of out right corruption, of illegal use Of money, than most of its predeces- sors among the Presidential years.
