1T is necessary to expose and
denounce the errors of Com

sequences of its mad philosophy.
It is necessary to study, in lab
oratory fashion, the evils upon
which Communism feeds and to
train experts who will show, lead
and live the way to social peace

LACK OF FUNDS
DECRIED At CIVIL
SERVICE PARLEY

ottawa. Canada, Oct. 4.
Malnutrition due to inadequate
financing is a chronic ailment Of
public personnel agencies, the
Civil Service Assembly of the
United States and Canada was
told today as its twenty-ninth ses-
sion convened.
G. Lyle Belsley, secretary Of the
c. S. A., ascribed frequent failure
to gain confidence of public Of
ficials to the fact that financial
malnutrition has become so wide
spread.
OFFICIALS "TIMID"
"Officers of most personnel
agencies are too timid and do
not request funds which are
sorely needed" said Belsley."
In this they render no good
turn either to their govern
ments or to their own agencies"
Yet, despite such adverse trends,
public personnel agencies are
gradually receiving recognition by
public officials, political leaders
and special investigating bodies,
Belsley continued.
1T is significant that in all
five States where Civil Services
acts have been adopted this
year the governors were in the
forefront insisting that merit
system be established to protect
them from patronage seekers
and to aid them in administra-
tive tasks. Civil Service Commits
sioners and public personnel ad-
ministrators are offered a chal.
lenge they cannot idly ignore,
but which they must advance
to meet with courage, energy
and imagination" he said.
URGES BROTHERHOOD"
Washington is numerically well
2preSented at the assembly. Many
members express interest in the
Wednesday discussion on various
phases of employe organization
activities, including politics, col
lective bargaining and participa
ton in development of personnel
~"licies.
The Washington times., 1937-10-04
The Reason Why

Background of the exams re-
suits was it's makeup ,. Weighted
10 per cent was experience" while
ability counted 80 For "abil-
ity," contestants "boiled down" a
garbled, l,200-word article into 800
(easy for nj st newsmen) and then
wrote a treatise on municipal fl
nance" The treatise, of course,
could be marked up. or if the
writer lacked political trousers he
could be termed radical, or some
thing Result now is that re-
mainder of the 1000 are sitting
around hcme waiting for the
phone to ring with a call from
Uncle Sam :. They'll wait long
time, most of them.
