STORM BREWING-Congress is
set to crack down on the Civil Serv-
ice Commission If the commission
doesn't hurry up its program of
grading examination papers.
Some exams that were given for
permanent jobs as far back as last
August have yet to be graded. Ap-
plicants for the jobs are complain
ing-they want to know if they
passed, and if SO, they want to get
the jobs as soon as possible.
Commission officials say their
major efforts still are centered on
finding jobs for displaced career en-
ploys. But the peak of the DEE
program was reached months ago
and the commission itself acknowl-
edges this program is just about
over.
Anyway. the Dee program, while
it is very important, involves only
several thousand jobs And there
are more than 100000 Government
Jobs on a war-service basis that still
need to be converted to a peace
time, permanent basis status.
If the commission doesn't step
up it's program soon, the House
Appropriations Committee and the
House Civil Service Committee will
step in and demand that this be
done. In fact, some Republican
members OF both committees are
prepared to make major political
issue out of the fact that a good
part of the Government is still on
wartime basis more than two
and-a-half years after the wars end
