Capt. TegeIer Had Rendezvous With Death
But Always Came Back From Danger
aWinner and a Fighter

Capt. Robert Graham Tegeler-
his friends call him "Teg"-has
flirted with death on many &C.
casions, but has always managed
to come off victorious.
"Teg" joined the District Fire
Department back in 1897. But
being a fire fighter didn't offer
enough excitement. He wanted to
see the world, so resigned and
joined the Navy.
And it was then he had his
first brush with death. The gun
boat Wasp" to which he was as
signed collided with freighter off
Cape Charles during a terrific
storm, and it looked as though all
on board would perish. But they
came through, and "Teg," his en-
listment up, went back to the COM
parative safety of fire fighting.
And in all the years until he was
retired in 1880, he faced danger
and was commended on many &C.
casions. In the Capital Traction

MERIT SYSTEM
NEED SHOWN
BY 'SP0ILS'
BY J. EARLE MOSER

"Spoils!" has made its appear
ance on local bookshelves.
The new book, written by Her
bert S. Hollander, local newspaper
man and expert on civil service.
and published by William Ullman,
comprises a concise picture Of the
plight of the merit system, yet pre-
sents it in an absolutely impartial
manner.
Including 118 pages Of authori-
tative history and comment, graph
ically revealing the need for 100
per cent merit-governed Federal
service, the book should prove in
valuable to the thinking Govern
ment worker and might be strongly
recommended to most of the legis-
lators on Capitol Hill.
Two of it's most pertinent para
graphs are as follows:
THE PURPOSE Of public reve-
nueS Is to finance public services
and not to finance party Organi-
cations or to set up publicly
financed job machine"
Laws and Executive Orders
in themselves provide no guar
antee Of the strength and per.
manency of q civil service SyS-
tenn. Statutes and rules must
be supported by public opinion,
consistently and inSistently
manifested"
The work includes in its concise
contents such subjects as the back
ground of the Spoils-merit fight,
the new gold rush." reasons for
the merit system. apologies uSu.
ally given by SpoilS adherentS, ad-
vanceS made by other countries in
forming an efficient government
service, and includes an entire
chapter devoted to quotations
from the public press on the sub
ject.
Terming spoilS "our costliest
burden" it says:
"The average taxpayer will
protest vigorously If his gasO-
line tax funds, for example, are
diverted. Or if there is evil
dence of waste in the conStruc-
ton of local public works. But
when it comes to the greatest
waste Of all, namely, the losses
dues to inefficiency, maladmin-
istratiOn, and downright stupid
ity through the operation of the
spOils system in the Federal
Government, he rarely is moved
to action. the attitude that
there is no trick to holding a
Government job; the trick is to
get one is equally general"
Mr.. Hollander's regular post is
editor of The Federal Employe,
official magazine of the National
Federation of Federal Employees.
Behind much of the authors
phraSeology may be traced many
utteranceS of Luther C. Steward,
president Of the federation, who
has proven one of the foremost
proponents for pure merit sys-
tenn. All in all, it's book worth
having and worth keeping.
