SIGNS OF THESE TIMES By Dudley A. Smith
Al] political parties have been called upon to subscribe to the principle of the merit system, sometimes referred to as personnel classification, for . government employes. The Demeocratic party in Indiana not only has promised this reform, but already has legislated that it shall be put into effect for most of the State’'s divisions of government.
The most striking example of operation udorth-tflt:nunlq
to be found in the management of Indiana’s State Police since reorganization under the law of 1935. In this division, nearly 150 employes won their positions and held them by merit alone. The department is supervised by & non-partiasn board. Politics ig taboo and each person looks only to meritorioug performance of his job for promotion.
A year ago when a number of vacancieg were to be filed, examination of applicants was entrustal to a physician, a civil service expert and another who had seen service as an Army officer and as a G-man From 421 applicants, 126 were selected without regard to their politics to take preliminary tests. From these, 75 were selected to enter a police training school. From the graduates of this school, 50 were enlisted in the service of the Indiana State Police
When a citizens committee raised $30,000 and Governor Paul V. MeNautt had appropriateed another $20.000 and a five-station police radio gystem was built, merit again governed all considerations. The most capable radio engineers were enlisted, C. W. A. suppiled the men and state institutions provided the materials. To man the system, the State selected graduate electrical engineers and radio men. Such wag the application to merit that the Journal of the American Bankers Association recently said: “The Indiana State Police Radio System hag already tak-, ’en its place as 4 leader in the ranks of state gystems.” ‘
The Indiana General Assembly,, in special session early this year, enacted the Public Weltare Law which placed all state penal and benevolent institutions and related administrative offices under a single department. The merit system for the entire personel of this consolidat eed new state departmen: was ordered by the legislature, which, at the same time wrote the Indiana Social Security Act and placed all administrative positions for its enforcement likewise under the merit system.
This week, boards appointed to draft rules for merit employment of persons in the State Welfare Department and Unemploymetn Compensation division, are in session Those at work on the rules are wrolly detached from political office, ‘n fact are the district representatives of groups and organizations which have been campaigning for the merit syst@n in government. And they have the aid of experts in the fields of personne! managemaat, sociology and civil service. '
The League of Women Voters has been one of the most persist campaigners for the merit syatem in public personnell. The Indiana Democratic General Assemb'y of 1933 gave the league of Women Voters almost everything they askei for. A voter’s Permanent Registration Law was enacted and put into force. st the }behect of the Leagus and in fulfillment of Democratic platform promises. And at the some time, provision was mqde for “classification of personnel” in state employment. Depression wage cuts ang research in regard to standards of employment have made the administration of this program a slow one, but the Democrtic state administration hasz been steadily at work on fit.
Other State departments, while not operating strictly under any set merit rules, have in fact, however, followed Governmor MeNutt's order that all applicants for positions must be selected on the basis of qualification for the job as 3 first consideration. Among such department ecan be mentioned the Gross Ingcome Tax Division, the S§tate Division of Public Health, The Public Service Commission, the division of public ,du.tion, the Department of Conservation, the state highway department, the excise division, state tax board, auto license division and others.
Governor MeNutt hasg been an administrator who consistently has preached and practiced the Jeffersonjan rule that ‘““‘good government Is the best politics”. Therefore, that “merit systeem”™ of employment which has enabled each or hisg state departments to make *he best record of public gervice possible has been his watchword. It is the Demo~ cratic promise also of tomorrw.
