Civil Service Observes Us 75th Anniversary

Postmaster Ernest E. Bushong announced today that Civil Service Week will be celebrated 12-18 January and will mark the 75th anniversary of the signing, of the Civil Service Act ofi l 6 January 1683. V Newspapers, radio' and television programs, window displays and, other publicity media; will be utilized by hundreds of cities and towns thruout the country in observance of this celebration. Primary purpose is to Inform every citizen as to what the merit system means to him. Postmaster Bushong points out tha t in one way or another the work of Federal employees touches every American every day: they deliver the mail, forecast the 1 weather, conduct scientific research, support our fighting forces, print and mint our money, control narcotics, regulate Immigration . collect taxes, help conserve land, bring electricity into rural homes, enforce F e d era 1 laws, and administer social security. ' lit is also emphasized that the merit system established by the Civil Service Act is a- guarantee that a citizen may qualify for a job on the basis of “ability to do the work, without discfimination with regard to race, religion, national origin., or politics. It entities him to consideration for promotions on the same basis, and it provides protection from arbitrary dismissal and any political tribute. r To all citizens it means a stable Government service capable of preserving the continuity of essential Government programs required by the American people. It means freedom from the upheavals of the old spoils system which, with each change of administration. saw such mass removals of Government workers that the Government machinery was frequently brought to a complete standstill. Postmaster Bushong also reports that the plans are to make 1958 a Civil Service Year which should provide an opportunity tor the public to learn what a merit system, means in orderly governmental operations Births ...
