statement said, "the commission hopes
to obtain candidates as we'll or better
qualified than those successful indi-
viduals in private employment whom
conscientious department heads can
and do find for themselves in indi-
vidual cases when they need special
lists. BY more active recruiting the
commission should be able to certify
more satisfactory eligibles to the
operating departments.
This special type of recruiting is
usually unnecessary in clerical exam

Of individuals apply. However, in
examinations to fill higher adminis-
trative and professional posts, the
number Of applicants and the quality
Of their experience are often made
