From the vantage ground of such increase by active

to restore the Chamber to its initial membership

the only effect of it, in my judgment,
is to extend the operation of the
Merit System to govern not only the
dismissal of your employees but also
the appointment of all of your en-
ployees engaged subsequent to the
effective date of the Act.
"Of course, any future appoint
ments to your staff must be governed
by the 1885 Act which provides for
qualification under the terms of the
Merit System.
"From consideration of the above,
therefore, I must conclude that your
employees appointed prior to the 1885
Act were not legislated out of office
by the recent enactment but that the
1885 Act, in effect, continues the or
ganization already functioning, with
out again qualifying through exami-
nations; and that the persons already
employed, in the manner above refer
red to, may be removed from their
positions only for cause, as prescrib-
ed in the Merit System Law"
Assistant Attorney General Charles
T. LeViness, 3rd, concurred in the
opinion

Attorney General Makes Ruling On
State Aid g Charities Employees

Herbert R. O'Conor, Attorney Cen
eral of Maryland, in ruling just
handed down, has decreed that all old
employees of the Board of State Aid
and Charities are safe in their jobs
and can be removed only for cause.
The ruling applies to all of the coun-
ty welfare units in Maryland whose
personnel is appointed by the State
Board.
The ruling was made at the request
of Samuel E. Shannahan, of Easton,
Director of Charities of the Board of
State Aid and Charities. Mr.. Shanna-
han reported to Mr{O'Conor that un-
der ruling of Harry C. Jones, State
Employment Commissioner, all of the
county welfare employees of the State
Board would have to take new exam
nations to keep their jobs, and if
they failed they would be replaced by
others who passed.
Mr.. O'Conor ruled that all of these
employees are protected by the Merit
System and cannot be removed except
for cause, or required to take new
examinations to hold their positions.
His rule has the effect of reversing
the action of Employment Commits
sioner Jones and means that those
persons validity appointed by the State
Board prior to April of this year can
not be disturbed in their positions by
any action of the State Employment
Commissioner, except on charges
made against them for inefficiency.
1t appeared that the Legislature of
1888 provided that employees of the
Board could be appointed without ex-
animation; but once they were ap-
pointed, they could be removed only
for cause. Mr.. O'Conor ruled that this
wording of the law brought them
within the Merit System and saved
their jobs, unless someone brought
charges against then.
The Legislature of 1885 further
provided that all employees engaged
by the Board after April 1885, should
take examinations under the Merit
System rules. Therefore as to all new
employees employed by. the Board
Mr.. O'Conor ruled that the provisions
of the 1885 Act would govern anG
that they must qualify under the
terms of the Merit System.
Also it developed that the State
Board, although not required to by
law, provided that courtesy examina.
tons" were to be held for it's employ.
ees hired in 1888 and 1884. Mr.. O'Con-
or ruled, however, that the Board die
not have to follow the results Of
these courtesy examinations" but
could pick from them if it chose OF
hire them in any manner it saw fit ir
the Boards own discretion.
Speaking of the 1888 Act under
which employees of the State Boarc
could be hired without reference t.
the Merit System, Attorney Genera
O'Conor, in his letter to Mr.. Shanna.
han, said:
"Your Board was free to use any
method of selection it deemed best. Il
could appoint without reference t.
the Merit System or, as apparently
was done, it could appoint after
courtesy examinations had been hell
to provide an eligible list. However
it was not bound to follow the results
Of these examinations. There is moth
ing in the 1885 Act which abolishei
the positions of your employees blu
