MrP'Pann saiiW that counting em ployes' ff states, counties, municipali ties unci townships, the army of civil inn public employees in the United States numbers nlsive 3.000,000, or one for even- seven families. The payroll Of this army is. alsiut $3,0(KM00.000 a year, of which $t;otui(MUHjy is spent by the federal government. ' One quarter of the total salaries paid, Mr. Dana charged, is wasted on supernumerary employes, unnecessary duplication of work, Inadequate man agement and antiquated methods, "Could waste lie stopiied in the pub lic service," he said, "there would lie a saving to our over-taxed country of ?700,ooo,ooo a yar." The Civil Service Reform League proposed two methods of eliminating this waste, Mr.JHina' said. First by turning" efficiency and employment ex lierts into the various departments to replace the InefliclenT, standardize work, modernize .methods aud put pro motion on u Irnsls of merit instead of seniority, or political pull. Second, by requiring that officials in tne ntgner grades, responsible for the manage ment of the lower grades, be select ed on account of fitness. , Mr. Dunn appealed to the adminis tration, to Congress and the general nubile at large to suport this program. "We as a country, have let matters drift on too long," he said. "We are not only wasting our imtrimoney, but are continuing bad hlbfs whitfh are becoming more firmly fixed."
