THE MUNICIPAL SERVICE.
“Although the higher and the technical appointments in local government are now made because the applicants have the right qualifications, clerical and junior administrative posts are still largely made by private nomination. As long as local government was concerned with the parish, pump this was well enough, hut today, when our local authorites spend in the aggregate something like £SOQ 000,000 n year, it is time to huild tm a local civil service which even in its junior ranks is free from every suspicion of corruption and is comparable to the national one in efficiency.”
