PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION.
REPORT CRITICISED. (By Telegranh.— Presa Aesociation.) . '■• ■ Dunedin, September 6. At a meeting of the Executive Committee of tho Railway Officers' Institute to-night, the report of the Public Service Commission on classification was' adversely commented on, especially the statement that the Commission had found the general opinion strongly against the classification schemes in force in tho Railway and Post and Telegraph Department?. It was stated that the general feeling amongst the railway officers was that it would be a great mistako to interfere with, the present method of classifying tho staff, and that, if the Act were properly administered, there would bo no necessity for an alteration, as ample provision had been mado for promotion by merit in preference to seniority. Tho classification had, it was stated, largely checked promotion by Departmental favouritism and political influence-.
