Uncivil Service
The National League of District
, Pwtmastera of the Ukited State rep
resenting poetmasten of the second,
third and fourth daasee. endeavoring
to inform the public of the facts re
lating to postaaasters' ftppomtmenta
, has released the following statement
concerning those facts: ;
Unformation given to the press by
some political leaders has. in some
instances, created the impression that
- postmasters might be removed from
. civil service and appointed politically.
' This, of course, 3b erroneous, as post
: . masters have the same civil service
status as other federal and postal em
ployees. and are -Jteoted in thiedr
positions by the Service laws and
regulations so long as they render
efficient and satisfactory service.
- "The United States Civil Service
jCnimission hag-issued a statement in
which it said, 'Postmasters were
brought under the Federal civil ser
vice system in 1938. Every post-
master not only has to qualify for ap-
podntment through an examination
given by the United States Civil Ser
vice Commission, but in the exami
nation, he must be among the top 3
eligibles. After appointment. Kke
i other Federal workers, the postmas
ter serves .without limitation on his
"" term, subject to the same competent
, handling of his office, as is required
, of all other civil service personnel.
"The country benefited when post
masters were placed under the com
petdtive civil service. IWe should re
: member that not only post office
i clerks, carriers, and supervisors, but
postmasters themselves are civil ser
vice workers appointed through com-
petrtive examinations. Postmasters
are also under the Retirement Act."
""The public is interested in efficient
postal service and efficiency can be
gained only through experience. To
revert to the "spoils system" would
mean short appointments, inexperi
enced management, and postmasters
who will take more interest in poli
tics than in good postal service, be
cause of obligations Ithey incur under
such conditions."

A precious one from us is taken
A voice we loved is still
There is a vacancy in our hearts
Which never can be filled.
It was such a shock to hear of Sid

Him. Sidney was a, sweet child, his
