THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

JOB EFFICIENCY

Merit System in City Regime.

Today's $64 question, posed by the J. L. Jacobs Co. of Chicago, now engaged in an efficiency survey of the Indianapolis city government, is: Who's going to serve as a fulltime “city personne] director” to carry out a program of “merit” hiring and firing after the survey recommendations are complete? Informing the citizens’ advisory committee yesterday of his firm's first month's progress, Mr. Jacobs warned that unless someone is appointed for the express purpose of administering suggested job and salary ‘changes, much of his work might go for naught after he’s gone.

Glances Exchanged

At this remark, members of the city council, perhaps with fleeting, sub-conscious visions of the political power any so-called city “personnel director” would wield, glanced at Mayor Tyndall who, in some cases, glanced back. City council, at odds with the mayor for more than a year, proposed the current survey after becoming entangled in last year’s budget estimates. . Council Finance Chairman Herman E. Bowers also suggested yesterday that the efficiency firm consider the possibility of changing statutory salary limitations as they apply to city employees. “For instance,” he pointed out, “I think the $6000 yearly salary for the mayor of Indianapolis is absolutely

Although the surgeon works deeply into the back, it is done through an inch and one-half incision which minimizes the hardship to the patient, 3 The success of the improved surgical methods also is expected to be reflected in compensation figures for veterans of world war II, placing them proportionately far below those for world war I when sciatica became a common compensatory illness.
