SHIFTING OF HEADS
GREATEST PROBLEM
Rep. William E. Andrew Deplores
Sudden Changing of
Department Executives.
"Sudden chancres In Federal department
executives is the greatest
penalty and problem In the service
of government work," declared
Representative William E. Andrews,
of Nebraska, speaking to the Interstate
Commerce branch of the Federal
Employes' Union, No. 2, last
night in the Interior Building.
"Slave drivers in the government
cause great trouble, but the many
changes from one department head
to another is the greatest problem
which confronts Congress," he said.
"There have been instances in the
government when a change of executives
has demoralised the entire
staff where the change takes
place."
He declared that reports that the
majority of employes lack efficiency
are based upon vague information,
and said an example of loyalty and
efficiency In the departments is the
work turned out by the Treasury.
Luther C. Steward, president of
the National Federation of Federal
Employes, said there was little opposition
to change the regime of the
United States Civil Service.
"But 250 Congressmen have sealed
books on this question." he said.
