of students Of the National Students

join the parade, waited with their

The first sign Of the parade was
the dull boom-boom of the band. AS
the workers lining the sidewalks

into view. The largest one was a

CIVIL SERVICE
D|SPLEASED BY
N 'KELLAR ACT

The Civil Service Commission
is highly dissatisfied with the
famous McKellar rider, which
lay at the bottom Of the dis
missal Of 900 employees from the
Treasury Department alcohol tax
unit, it was learned today from
a private statement by a Civil
Service Commission official, who
declared that "the whole matter
is an outrage"
The McKellar rider, in the
opinion of the commission men,
bers, is entirely outside the pur-
port of the Governments civil
service policy under which en-
ployes are selected on practical
efficiency and protected from
political raids.
The official who impaired this
information to The Washington
Times indicated that there might
be influence from the Admins
tration both to undo the harm
accomplished by the McKellar
rider and to prevent such actions
in the next Congress.
The Civil Service Commission
believes, however, that, while it
was a Shameful" proceeding to
require the Treasury employees to
take further examinations, the
questions were not tricky" It
is pointed out that the examina-
ton was no different from a SINH
lar one held in 1881.
Meantime, the 900 ousted en-
ployes may ignore their custer and
report for work tomorrow as
usual. Many of them believe their
status will be restored by Con-
gress which meets January 3, but
Treasury officials say that the 900
may have to be regarded as being
on a payleSs furlough from De-
cember / until such time as Con-
gresS acts.
