VD vere pleased to nail is ooirt inn progressive
hatesmanship the vire which 'Governor Daruion sent
o ‘he Republican convention saying that he proposed
to -‘x'eno the merit system .n the federal government
to i.rvr ude ‘every position ;n the administrative service
below he rink of issistant secretaries it major'depart
ment-. md agencies and the entire PostorT. ie De
partment.’’
Here, ve thought, is at last a candidate for Presi
dent who relieves as we do that public servants should
oe -ihosen for their fitness and not on a dasi.s of spoils.
So :t is ouite a .et-down for is .o read in the Balti
more Run -i dispatch written from Topeka oy Paul W
Ward. Here -ire a few excerpts from Mr. Ward’s ar
ticle:—
'Research showed that t; . ' Landon’s. own Stare
as no -ivil service system a* ail although, according ‘o
hatv offic.aL a aw providing for one .oas neen on the
Kansas statute books since Wore the war
N . Dover nor . has ever seen fit to appropri
ate sufficient funds to pu* 'he .aw m speration. Once
. . . RROO was appropriated to pay the saiary of a
Derk for ‘ha* purpose.
'Under Governor Landon . . there has been no
ippropr.at.on at all and the civi. service law rema.ns
inoperative.”
*:here are no competitive examinations for
,'a‘e jobs and department he ids fix the salaries of their
subordinates.”
Judged by appearances, there is as much or more
superfluous help— relative!-/ —in the State House here
;s in any of the New Deal agencies at Washington. Tn
near.-/ two weeks of traveling from one office to another
./, ' oe Kansas capitol, no persons were encountered who
seemed to be working, outside of the Governor’s suite
of offices.
All posts appor to be filled on a patronage basis,
readers in both the Republican and Democratic camp
said there is a general ‘housecleaning’ whenever there is
a change of administration ”
When a Democrat, Ed. Rowers, who was elected
State Auditor, died last September, Landon appointed
-i Republican, George Robb, to the post, and Powers’
app>lntees were at once replaced by Republican job
holders.”
The Governor might, do well to remember that re
form, like charity, begins at home.

Taking of fingerprints from cloth is called the latest

“Karloff wore 02 pounds of makup in ‘Franken
stein.’ ” The record may some day be shattered if
George Arliss ever plays II Duce and has to achieve
that chin. i
Lumberjacks in Idaho want clean sheets once a
week. What’s become of those mighty men of the great
north woods we hear about in film and story?
If the weather holds all summer and word gets
around in the States, we won’t be able to keep ’em out
of Alaska next season.
