DON'T QUOTE ME

Washington, Jun l6-(U. P) - To.day is tho 50th anniversary of tho civil service system, as wcll us tho 18th anniversary of national prohibition.
 Tho net creating the civil service commission and providing for com: DetltiVe examinations for federal Jobs was approved in 1883 by Pros- jdent Arthur. More than three de- cados of agitation preceded ndop- ton of tho Legislation. It made llt- tic progresB until 1881, when the assassInation of President Garfield by 'an unsuccessful ofilce-seeker focused public attention on the spolls-systom.
 Conditions prior to 1883 wore described thusly by George, William Curtis, who was nn outstanding hd- Vocnte of civil service reform:
 "IIvery four years the whole machinery of tho government IA pulled to pieces. The country pre- Horts n most ridiculous, reVoltlng and dlHhoartening spectacle. The business of tho nation and tho leg ialation of congress aro subordlnnt- cd to tho distribution of plnndor among eager partlsanB. President, sccrotarles, senators, are doggod, hunted, besleged. beSought. de- nounced, and they become nero office brokers. The country sootheB with intrigue and corruption. Econ- omy, patriotism. honor, honesty, seemed to have become words Of no meaning"
 Of course it is still true to-day that hateongreasmcn---democratic. ones --are dogged, hunted, besloged and bosought. But the spells of political victory have been curtailed cnorm- ously.
 When the civil service was first adopted, less than 14,000 federal posts were made competitive. To- day moro than 4G7,000 positions arc filled by non-partisan examin- ations. That is so per cent of the federal service.
 The remaining 20 per ,ccnt of course include all tho key positions which naturally must Dc filled by persons in harmony With tho ready 10 carry out the program of new administration.
