LETTERS TO EDITOR
My dear Mr.. Robinson:

- NC0A AhA ANOoAhooA.
May l suggest that If it has
not been done, steps should be
taken to induce the governor to
amend this clause providing
against discrimination in his Civil
Service Bill so as to include ra-
cial as well as political and re-
ligious discrimination.
You will, no doubt, agree with
me that this is of vital Importance
to the youth of our race; when
you read the following clipping:

rector. The Board will promulgate

provided for. The usual six
months probation period is in
