Senate Body Agrees
To Ease Hatch Act
Nearby Office Ban
Amendment to Permit
U. S. Workers to Hold
Town Posts Backed

The first definite step to restore to
Federal employees who live in nearby
Maryland and Virginia the right to
hold municipal office in the subur-
ban towns in which they live was
taken yesterday, when special
Senate subcommittee decided to
place such an amendment in the
bill to extend the Hatch Act of 1899
to thousands of State employees.
Chairman Hatch, Democrat, OF
New Mexico announced the SUBJ
committee will meet Thursday to
act on the details of the measure,
which was approved in substance
yesterday by majority Of the group
At the same time the subcommit-
tee postponed action on a second
bill designed to tighten the law
against SOLICITING political cam
paign funds from Federal employees
The law at present makes it unlaw-
full for a person in the Government
service to solicit contributions from
other employees. Senator Hatch is
seeking to broaden the restriction
also to prohibit any one outside the
service from asking Government en-
ployes to contribute to political
campaign.
Barred by Hatch Act.
For many years prior to 1889 civil
service rules allowed Federal en-
ployes who live permanently in in
corporated towns in adjacent coun-
ties of Maryland and Virginia to
serve as mayor or two councilmen
of their communities.
When Congress last year passed
the Hatch law, barring all except
policy-making officials of the Fed
eral Government from active par
ticipation in political campaigns, the
Civil Service Commission ruled that
1t would prevent employees from serv-
ing as town officials in these ada
cent communities, after their pres
ent terms expire.
Senator Hatch said the subcom-
mittee yesterday directed the legis-
lative drafting experts to prepare an
amendment, e-enacting the old civil
service rule. That rule listed more
than score of nearby towns in
which Government employees could
run for municipal Office.
The bill approved yesterday applies
the political barriers in the original
Hatch Act to employees of the Dis
trict government, as well as to thou
sands of State employees who are
paid in part from Federal loans or
grants.
Commissioners Exempt.
The District Commissioners would
be exempt, as policy making officers,
and this will make it unnecessary
for Commissioner Allen to relinquish
his position as an official of the
Democratic State Central Committee
for the District.
The subcommittee decided to
amend the bill to designate the Civil
Service Commission as the agency
to administer the ban against polit-
ical activity by State employees. The
method of applying the ban to State
workers is to withhold Federal aid
from any State agency, as long as it
can be shown its employees are taking
active part in politics. Placing ad-
ministration of the plan under the
Civil Service Commission will elm
mate the possibility Of various Fed
eral agencies setting up different
rules for determining what consti-
tutes political activity. When the
subcommittee completes the bill
Thursday, it will 60 to the Privileges
and Elections Committee for ratifi-
cation.
