Senator Hatch charged admins
traitors of the Civil Service law with
the task of defending against
strong opposition the purposes of
the merit system.
1T is yours to see that it tthe
merit syStem is not prostituted,"
the Senator declared 1T may, and
it will, require courage on your part,
as you already know far better than
I do. 1t may even cost the loss of
