ees, along with the committees to
which each has been referred:

viding a five-day week for all city
employees except those in the Po­
lice and Fire Departments, and
time off for overtime. (Civil Em ­
ployees).
No. 71 (McCarthy). Prohibiting
removals except for incompeten­
cy, misconduct, or insubordina­
tion, shown after a hearing, and
allowing the accused to be repre­
sented by counsel* (Civil Em ­

If you have been holding an
“exempt” (unclassified) position
in the federal service for a t least
six months, don’t worry about
w h at’s going to happen to you
after Jan. 1, 1942, when the new
Kxecutive Order of President
Koosevelt goes into effect. At
least you have nothing to worry
about until then.
All positions go into the classi­
fied service after January except:
1. Positions of the TVA.
2. Positions of the WPA.
( I.O SK I> A L L D A Y

3. Positions which the Civil Ser­
vice Commission may except from
competition as policy determining,
such as deputies to department
heads, heads of important divi­
sions, etc.
4. Positions of some of the spe­
cially created “ government cor­
porations” or “authorities” which
are not entirely ow^ned and con­
trolled by the government.
