red tape. procedure and administra-
ton. It is the easiest thing in the
world to put a man on the Govern
ment payroll. To get him travel al
lowance which will let him be used
to the greatest advantage is like draw
ing teeth. And it Is almost impossible
to use such modern devices as tele-
types and airplanes in order still fur
ther to expand his usefulness. The re-
suit is. quite naturally. that the Gov
ernment wires for men to do the sort
Of job which these men could do more
efnciently and economically II they
could be used as freely as any modern
business concern can use its personnel.
Examinations Urged.
The third thing we can do is to in
stitute periodic written competitive ex-
am.nations for all ma ior promotions
inside the Government service. That's
what the Navy does for its officers.
Those who have served certain num-
ber of years and fail to qualify for
promotion are honorably discharged.
This Is pretty tough, but It's one Of the
ways We employ to see that the Navy
at least is ON its toes.
No reform is possible or can be last
ing without taking the Controller Gen.
eral for a ride. Old iron-toothed Nc
Carl did as much to wreck morale and

of God, but his precedents and tradi-
tions hang on in the General Account
ing ONCE and will be used again to
entrap and entangle any future ad-
ministrator who tries to use initiative
or imagination.
Middle Course Proposed.
Finally, there is the question of Sc
curity of tenure. The lower ranks of
civil service are too sure of keeping
their jobs, the upper ranks are too sure
of losing their jobs. A middle course
will have to be found if Government
work is going to mean more than a
snug harbor for the routine workers
and a hopeless four years scramble
for the men on top.
In the meantime. it will help Roose-
welt in his mammoth job if We all get
over the idea that the civil service Is
just dandy. Too often in the last four
years 1t has been lust plain lousy.

posed reoeFal reorganiDation
Y is the little matter of REFORM
ing the civil service.
During the campaign angry cries
from Topeka suggested that Roosevelt
had debauched the civil service by ex-
empting the New Deals emergency
employees from the bureaucratic
straightjacket which passes for civil
service In Washington.
The, only uncomfortable part of this
ideal picture of q noble, spotless per-
manent staff Of trained officials, Sc
lected without spoilsmanship, was the
fact that the despised emergency en-
ployes did a much better job than the
rank and file bureaucrats. They
worked late and hard. they used i'm
agination and initiative, and where
extravaganza and ineficiency cropped
up-as it did-often the cause was
those very civil service standards
which look so pretty at a distance.
Top Jobs Are Underpaid.
One basic reform Is clearly indi-
Gated. The top jobs in Government are
underpaid. No man can afford to
take them unless he has an inde-
pendent income of his own. This
means that millionaires must subsi-
die the Government pay roll or that
only second-raters will stick around.
If the Government cannot pay big
men what they are worth in a COM
petitive society. it should at least see
that Government Job pays enough to
make it financially possible for a poor
man to serve the Government.
Generally speaking, by commercial
standards. the lower ranks of Govern
ment service are overpaid. Few bus
inesses pay as high wages or assure
as steady employment to clerks and
stenographers. Since this is so. there
is no economy motive in holding down
the salaries in the upper positions.
No Career in Government.
What it means is that Government
service does not offer a career. 1t Is
a livelihood for limpets. but BUREAU
cracy is no boon when a man cannot
afford to accept promotion or to keep
the Job tc which he is entitled by his
administrative abilities.
The second great measure is to re-
