POSTMASTERS' Jobs
SAFE, SAYS FARLEY
Declares Efficient Ones Will
Be Permitted to Serve
Out Their Terms.

q Postmasters at first, second and third
class offices, whose tenure Is four years,
will be permitted to serve out their
terms. provided they are efficient.
This principle was laid down by Post
master General Farley, in a statement
given out for publication today, which
made it clear that the new administra-
ton proposes no housecleaning in the
Interest of patronage.
At the same time, Mr.. Farley empha-
sized runners that abandonment of Civil
Service tests for these three classes was
contemplated are without foundation.
/ These first three classes of post
mastershipS. totaling 1902, are presi-
: dental appointments. for which nomi-
nees are confirmed by the Senate. They
qualify through competitive tests ar
ranged by the Civil Service Commission,
but are not under Civil Service as are
the small fourth class office holders.
1850 Places Vacant.
At present. there are 2 soc vacancies,
which are expected to be filled shortly.
Many of these originated during the
last lame duck" Congress. remaining
open when the Senate turned thumbs
down on President Hoover's appoint
mentS In the remainder however, are
many Republican appointees. who. un-
der Postmaster General Farley's pro-
nouncement. will hold Office for the best
part Of the Roosevelt administration.
In this connection, the Postmaster
General said:
mo incumbent whose term has not
vet expired and who has been render
ing loyal and efficient service to the
Government need have the slightest
fear of removal. II will be the policy
Of the Post Office Department to allow
every efficient postmaster to fill out his
term"
O'Mahoney Making Study.
IN asserting there has never been
the slightest basis for reports that
civil service tests were to be abandoned,
Farley continued:
Attention may be called to the
fact that the principles of the civil
service system were firmly established
by Grover Cleveland. Furthermore, it
was another Democratic President
(Wilson) who first committed to the
Civil Service Commission the task of
examining applicants for appointment
as postmaster. "
A study is now being made in the
Post Office Department under the di-
rection Of Joseph c. O'Mahoney, First
Assistant Postmaster General. as TO the
manner in which postmaster eXamina-
tions have been conducted in the past.
"AS soon as this study has been COM
pleted." Farley said ''its result will be
submitted to the Civil Service Com
mission with the request that the rules
and regulations under which the ex-
aminations are to be held shall be
PROMULGATED at the earliest oppor-
tunity.'
Farley added that the department
''has no intention Of abandoning the
historic custom Of inviting the advice
of members of Congress with respect
to the qualifications and fitness of ell
gble applicants in the various con-
gressional districts"
Ordinarily, a list of three eligihles
is certified by the commission and
members of Congress make their choice
from these.

STAND BY YOUR TOWN

The town booster is worth
more to the. town than a gov
ernment building. He boosts
for the churches the schools and
for every business man and
spends his money at home.
Don't forget to boost all the
time.
If you want to live in the
kind of a town
Like the kind of a town you'd
like,
You needn't slip your clothes
in grip
And start on a long, long hike,
You'll only find what you left
behind,
For there's nothing that's
really new,
It's a knock at yourself when
you knock your town,
Real towns are not made by
men afraid,
Lest somebody else gets
ahead.
When everyone works and
nobody shirks
You can raise a town from
the dead.
And if while you make your
personal stake
Your neighbor can make one
too,
Your town will be what you
want to see.

BURGLAR AGAIN ENTFRS
PAY'N TAkIT STORE

A. j. DUnaway, manager of
the Pay'n Takit Store, captured
burglar who again entered
the store Friday night through
the north door after breaking
the glass to gain entrance. Fin
ger prints showed evidence of
the same person having entered
the store two weeksago through
the north door in the same
fashion, taking goods and
money. This time the burglar
didn't get away with the food
stuffs as before, but was held
up with a shot gun by Mr..
Dunaway until the officers ar
rived and took the prisoner to
the Florence jail.
A burglar alarm was installed
from the store to the managers
home recently, which seems to
work with perfection, judging
from the results. The thief is
reported to have come from the
vicinity of Tucson, arriving on
an early freight expecting to re-
turn on a later one. However,
he will be county boarder now
until other arrangements are
made.
