ByHumphrey

Senator Humphrey, Democrat
of Minnesota today called for
formation of a special commits
sion of government and political
science specialists to make an
objective appraisal of the in
volvement of politics in the ap-
pointment of Federal career
civil service and policy jobs.
In an address before the two
day conference of the Society
for Personnel Administration,
which opened in the Hotel Stat
Ter, the Minnesotan also renewed
bis demand for a 12-member
rEommission to examine the Fed
eral Government security pro-
gram.
aThe chairman of the Senate
Government Operations Subcom-
mittee which recently held hear
ings on the security program
dwelt lengthily on his concern
over the Administrations job ap-
pointment policies.
Something must be done to
quell the appetite for political
patronage or we are not going
to have a civil service" he
warned.
How deep is the clean house
to go, how far is the political
ak to be used?" he asked. The
Senator challenged whether ap-
pointments to jobs in purely
technical agencies - like the
botanists and agronomists at
Beltsville Agriculture expert
mental station-must have "po-
litical clearance"
He said the study project
should be made by trained pro-
fesSlonals outside of Govern
ment. He also suggests that the
Congressional civil service and
appropriations committees look
into the matter.
