carry, in his downfall, his own per-

With the Democrats possessing a
tremendous Mai ority in both Hous-

neither party intimated that any Of

spirit results in forebeararce

that no important cogs in the gov

Naturally, all the Cabinet posi-

Perhaps the only sure prediction

shows that two. years ago the total
Of those holding civil service jobs in
the Federal Service totaled 616,837.
Of this nhn1ber there were 46S,o5o
who are in the Classified Civil Ser
vice and, as such, not subject to
removal by the incoming Admins
tration.
Cleveland And Civil Service
Under the rules that governed
some fifty years ago, no fewer than
half million Federal employees
would be due for removal. In 1883
President Grover Cleveland first
caused the Civil Service Act to be
passed by Congress and he gave
the enactment teeth by naming as
the first Commissioner young man
named Theodore Roosevelt. While
thousands Of positions were rernov-
ed from the zone Of party strife by
these two men. yet 1t took the
years since to close the gap so that
today less than one-fourth Of all
Government employees are liable to
dismissal as a result Of an upsen In
political parties.
Practically everybody in this city
under the grade Of Bureau Chief is
safe from being dropped but It is
figured that about five thousand, OK
possibly double that number, may
be fired after next March. Most of
those destined to be replaced are

One surprise, to most Of those

will occur in the post offices, it is
obviously good party politics TO
name the campaign manager for
that post. Most of the post, offices
in the country, under the first and
second classes are now protected
by the Classified Civil Service Act

not be so many as in the good old

not raise serious objections to certain
forms of resubmission Of the prohibition
question. But it was stated that he
would object emphatically to any repeal
declaration by the convention.

CHICAGO. June 1.-THE threat that
Alfred E. Smith might be called upon
to lead third party If neither the Re-
publicans nor Democrats adopt q plan
calling for prohibition repeal rang out
last night amid pre-convention clamor
over the dry laws.
1t was raised by Raymond Pitcairn,
Philadelphia anti-prohibitionist, in an
address at wet rally attended by sew
eral thousand in the Coliseum
1T IS no secret that the American
people are fed UP with both ma jor party
records, their taxes. and their failure TO
vote in favor Of repeal" Pitcairn told
the wet mass meeting.
If the Republican candidate should
fail to take command, he cannot be
elected. What then should the people
do?
And suppose the Democrats should
nominate Franklin Roosevelt. a dema-
gogue and in time past Straddler even
on this issue? If leaders are not found
in either major party to restore liberty
and provide measures for a Just pros
perlty, must the Republican form Of
government perish from the land?
If both parties fail the people in this
emergency We could and should indorse
a strong leader of the peoples cause.

the prohibition question today predicted
success was just ahead after consulting
the White House and spokesman for
the drys.
During the morning they communi-
Gated by telephone with President Hoo

Daniel A. Polling, head of the Allied
Forces for Enforcement, and other pro-
hibition leaders, to inspect the tentative
resubmiSsion plank already drawn UP.
Subsequent events indicated revision
was in progress.
Secretaries Mills and Hyde of the
cabinet pored over the issue with James

head the Resolutions Committee. A
formal agreement and approval by the
President was expected before the COM

Nevertheless the departure of Mills,

the prohibition parleys indicated a final
draft had been found subject to study
by the President during the early aft
ernoon.
The fact that the cabinet members
have taken over the prohibition job was
accepted as showing almost certain
