Indiana Congressmen. the local leagues will be a part of an intensive nationwide campaign launched . today by the National League to insure passage of the bill, “aimed at extending civil service to 200,000 Federal Government positions.” ; League members in Indiana will urge nine Congressional representa-. tives of the state to reverse their votes for the Nichols amendment which makes the quota provisions of the original Civil Service’ Act applieable to employees affected by this bill. Quota provisions allot each state a number of civil service em« ployees based on its population. Three Indiana Congressmen op-. posed the amendment. “If these quota provisions were enforced at the present time,” Mrs. Clarence F. Merrell, president of the Indiana League, said in her letter to local leagues, “well qualified citizens from 2] states and the District of Columbia which have filled their quotas would not be available for civil service positions until 28 other states have filled their quotas. The amendment ‘would also apply the same restrictions of quotas for the first time to Government jobs in the field service outside Washing~ ton. There are more Federal eme ployees in field positions than in the District of Columbia.” ° Mrs. Merrell termed the Nichols amendment an administrative: impossibility at any time, and particularly when the Civil Service Com mission is endeavoring quickly to’ supply the necessary competent personnel to staff defense positions. She declared that members of the local leagues would interview candidates for Congress and the present ine. cumbents to explain to them why, if the amendment were included, the League of Women voters would opposé passage of this bill for which it has struggled since its introduction. ” :
