enacted into law, substitute a single
administrator, to be appointed by the
President, for the Civil Service Com
mission of three member as now con-
stituted. The Bill now before Congress
proposes to abolish the Civil Service
Commission and to transfer its admin
istrative functions to single admins
traitor. The Fifty-Sevcnth Annual
Convention of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor which was held at Den
yer, Colorado, October, 1897, expressed
itself upon this matter as follows:
Opposed by A. F. of l.. convention
"Resolved, that the Fifty Seventh
Convention of the American Fedora
tion Of Labor endorse the proposition
that the United States Civil Service
Commission continue to be the agency
charged with the administration of the
laws and regulations affecting civilian
personnel within the classified civil
service of the United States, and be
it further
Resolved, That the Fifty Seventh
Convention of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor endorse the proposition
that the United States Civil Service
Commission continue to be bi-par-
tisan Commission"
Government Employees Favor Bi-Parti-
san Commission
The American Federation of Labor
has consistently supported the merit
system in government employment and
has favored it's application in a broad
and extended way SO as to cover those
employed by the government SO far as
that is practicable and possible. 1t
is the men and women Of labor who
are vitality affected by the admins
tration of civil service laws. They
have faith and confidence in BIZ
partisan Civil Service Commission
they would not have the same conf
dence in single administrator.
Much of this state of mind, is based
upon the fact that the Civil Service
Commission is called upon to serve
both as an appellate court in matters
of transcendent importance and via
interest to civil service employees and
legislative body. We all know that
important questions which involve
policy and interpretations must be
passed upon.
We are convinced that such ques-
tions can be treated more justly, fairly
and in more comprehensive way by
a deliberative body than by single
administrator. Experience has showr
that the decisions of one man woulc
be Frequently challenged and that q
single administrator would be accused
whether justly or unjustly, of being
influenced by partisan and persona
considerations. All of this would tenc
to undermine the confidence of the peo
pie in the merit system and in civi
service administration.

Menace Of Single Administrator

Under our form of government
courts of appeal and courts Of last re-
sort are made up Of three or more
members. Because the Civil Service
Commission serves in many instances
in a judicial capacity, it is inconceivable
that we would substitute the principle
Of one man court in the administra-
tion of civil service legislation.
In behalf of the officers and mem
bers of the American Federation of
Labor | sincerely and earnestly re-
quest you to oppose the substitution
of single administrator for the BIZ
partisan Civil Service Commission, as
is embodied in the pending Reorgan-
ization Bill.
am confident that the faith of the
masses of the people in the merit sys-
TEN and the administration Of civil
service legislation will be strengthened
through the maintenance Of bi-par-
tisan Civil Service Commission. On the
other hand, confidence in the admins
tration of civil service laws will be
greatly impaired if a single admins
traitor is substituted for the bipartisan
Civil Service Commission.
sincerely hope and trust you may
find it possible to support the point of
view of the officers of the American
Federation of Labor which | have out
! lined in this communication.

Civil Service Age Ban
Held Void In New York

New York, y. Y.-The Municipal
Civil Service Commission lacks au-
thority to fix minimum age Of so
years for candidates for appointment
as porters in New York City building
and apartments, according to a decis-
ion by Justice William r. Collins Of
the New York State Supreme Court.
Holding that the commissions rule
fixing the maximum age Of 46 years
for the position on the date Of applica-
tion and under 80 years on the date Of
appointment was so unreasonable as to
be illegal, Justice Collins said the "age
limitation has no relation to merit"
adding:
at makes age, rather than physical
condition, the test Of an applicants
qualification. To assert that an ap-
plicant of so is physically unfit to per
form the duties Of porter, merely be-
cause he has attained that age, is to
assert an obvious absurdity.
"If the commission can legally de
clare that one over 80 is physically
unfit regardless Of the facD they
could legally prescribe 80 as the maxi
mum age Economics and hu-
manity condemn the rule; nothing
reasonable or right favors it."
Observers said the action Of Justice
Collins may require the Municipal
Civil Service Commission to reject
more than 10000 applications it had
received for appointment as porters
and to fix a new date for filing ap-
plications in accordance with the de-
cision.

Four Civic Groups
Consider School Needs

Delegates from four Southeast
citizens associations met last night
in a round-table discussion on the
need for increased school facilities
in their areas. Enlargement of the
Randle Highland School Ito include
cutting through of Thirtieth street
S.E) and construction of a new
school located centrally to the four
units were proposed, but no action
was taken pending action by the
individual associations at meetings
next month.
Evening star., 1938-11-29

Perhaps you nave seen military
parade formations in some school.
If you have perhaps it was one of
the schools where occasionally each
cadet officer is allowed to appoint
some young lady as his sponsor.
Such an appointment permits her
to stand beside him at a certain
time during the ceremony. During
one such formation high ranking
cadet officers and their sponsors
were late in arranging themselves
for the ceremony and consequently
they stood in a row, first the four
boys and then the four girls. This
was not the best arrangement, so
the commanding cadet officer decid-
ed to try rearranging them in
fairly precise way so that it wouldn't
look too unmilitary. He did it by
moving two Of the eight at time.
Each two that he moved were next
to each other so it didn't look too
disorderly. In four moves this way
he had them arranged so that they
were alternated boy, girl, boy, girl
etc. Can you do 1t with coins in
four moves?

Society Of Natives
Told Effective Peace
Machinery Inevitable
Dr.. Call Speaks on
Munich PorIey and
Future Possibilities

Development of justice through
law" instead of nations resorting to
war to settle disputes, was predicted
last night by DR.. Arthur Deerin Call,
secretary of the American Peace
Society, as the deferred but inevi-
table phase" of the Munich agree
ment.
DR.. Call made this forecast at
meeting of the Society of Natives of
the District of Columbia in the
Washington Club, at which he spoke
on the subject, "The Three Phases
of the Munich Agreement"
The first phase of the agreement
was described by DR.. Call as the
"factual phase" and in celebrating
on the latter he described the events
leading up to Germany taking over
Sudetenland, including the famous
meetings of Prime Minister Cham
berlain and Chancellor Hitler.
Cites Fearful Phase"
The second was the fearful
phase" DR.. Call said, when most of
us felt we were on the verge of war"
The speaker declared peace o. the
world depends upon justice, and
pointed to the Constitutional Con-
vention in this country and the
Constitution which came out of it
as having set an example to the
world of how to peacefully settle
problems-as the problems of the
separate sovereign States were solved
through peaceful agreement.
During the course of his address
Or. Call declared the persons who
drew up the Treaty of Versailles
we're not in the proper psychological
frame of mind to draw up an in
strument that would maintain in
ternational peace, asserting they
were warriors" Dr. Call answered
questions asked by the audience fol-
lowing his address.
Change December Meeting.
The society extended vote of
thanks to DR.. Call for delivering the
address. 1t adopted a resolution to
send a message to Judge Robert E.
Mattingly expressing regret over the
latter's illness and wishing him a
speedy recovery. The society voted
to hold its December meeting on
the third Monday instead of on the
fourth Monday, the usual time of
the monthly meetings.
Everett A. Jarvis. Mrs Ruth G.
Bowdler, Harry P. White and Mrs.
r. G. Dunno were installed as new
members Louis L. Bowdler, presi-
dent of the society, presided. Re-
freshments were served.

BOSTON. NOT WITHOUT
RHYME OR REASON-With-
out the slightest provocation,
DR.. Merrill Moore will write a
sonnet. In fact he has written
$4,000 to date and his annual
production seems to be on the
upgrade. DR.. Moore, now 35,
practices psychiatry, teaches
at Harvard and directs two
w. P. A. projects. His auto
biography, in sonnet form,
will be published December 8.
