CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSIONERS
In spttp of political attempts that have bfeen made to discredit the Public Service Act and make it appear that the Civil Service is seething with discontent, wo have it on excellent authority that the new system is b,eing attended with splendid results. "The service was never more satisfied than it is now," said a prominent public, man to an Age representative. He pointed out that, although there may be, individual cases of dissatisfaction, the great bulk of the public servants fdH that, under the Civil Service Commissioners, they were receiving a "square deal." Men felt that promotion would be made in future by merit, instead of by political influence, and they were consequently animated by a desire to become proficient. yMore than • that, there was now no chance of subordinates being penalised by heads of departments without having a chaiice to defend themselves. "Tho Public Service Act," said our informant, "is one of the most beneficient measures that lias been placed upon the Statute Book."
